"Moog Song Producer sequencer 'MIDI In, Out & Thru Just Won't Do' 1/4-page black and white advertisement from the top right corner of page 101 in the December 1985 issue of Keyboard Magazine."
"A synth blues cover version of the classic song : 'Ain't No Sunshine' by Bill Withers. Done using analog hardware, but controlled by Ableton Live 10 with a Novation Launchpad Pro.
The longer jam sections have been cut out.... coz, while they're fun to play, but no one really wants to hear that shnitzel.
.... and yes, it is in portrait mode 9:16 😜

Today is a big day, I received my Moog Subsequent 37 - directly after work and right before dinner I just had to make a quick first jam .. I unpacked it, set it up, connected a couple FX pedals and .. yep, into space on first attempt. Can I say it sounds fabulous? :D
FYI, there are some synths and other FX turned on and hissing in the background, i just forgot to turn things off.
"A self-generating patch using 2 Mother 32s sent through an Eventide Space shimmer reverb and an Eventide Timefactor on digital delay setting. No other processing has been applied.
The lower Mother 32 is supplying the percussion and effects, by having the self-resonating filter modulated by a triangle LFO, which in turn is being modulated by a random stepped voltage to go up into the audio range. The Pulse output from this Mother 32 is patched to the Ext Audio input of the higher Mother 32 and is mixed with its melody, with the effect of the higher Mother 32 handling melodic lines at the same time. Random stepped voltages from the Assign outputs affect the melodies, as well as several other controls like the tempo of the the sequencers. Another notable feature of this patch is that the envelope of the higher Mother 32 is patched to the VCA CV input of the lower, adding a bit of extra snap to the percussive sounds.
Veils (in the top left) is being used as an output mixer and isn't affecting the patch.

"Experimenting here with the Q962 shift trigger input and also the C958 transpose function. I had the idea of building myself a box that does all this on dedicated buttons and in various combinations and configurations...!"
I mentioned, in the description for the DJX cleaning video, that I bought a second instrument from the same seller. This is it: BOSS DR-202 drum machine/groovebox.
It had a problem with the power plug and the power supply was also faulty (I don't show the repair process for the power supply in this video). And as usual it needed a good cleaning.
The music is 'This is your song' by Telex. I play it on Roland JX-8P synthesizer, Yamaha HE-8 organ and SY-1 synthesizer. The rhythm comes from a Korg Rhythm 55 drum machine."
