"this is the awesome Yamaha TX216 from 1984, with two TF1 (one TF1 = one DX7), all sounds are from Yamaha TX216, no extra effects or processes were used"
"Debussy's 'Syrinx', here performed on synth. Original is, of course, solo flute - but it translates very, very well to synth - especially the Vermona, given its expressive qualities.
I'm working on a project at present for a client, hence a different instrument from the norm (i.e. the Vermona is out anyway).
The Vermona is something of a rare beast. Even rarer is hearing a full performance on the '14. It should probably be kept that way i.e. very elusive ;)
I chose Debussy to illustrate the Vermona for a few reasons, namely:
1) It is a great piece for showing off the highly expressive capabilities of the Vermona
2) I'm working on dance music at present, and Debussy makes a refreshing change :)
The tone I've went for here is very unusual/odd - this is to complement the nature of the music. Vermona's tone is stunning. Possibly the finest tone of any modern analog mono. The MB has far greater sound design capabilities - but for a pure tone, there aren't many synths to touch this.
Coloured score on the wall is Syrinx. I often colour to define sections. Great way of quickly showing/identifying structure.
Performance duration of this recording is longer than most recordings. Synths, unlike flute players, don't have the all-very human worry of running out of breath :) as such, phrases can be given full space/length. I personally think the piece sounds great on a synth such as this.
"The Noise Engineering Ataraxic Iteritas is an oscillator based on the first Noise Engineering module, the Ataraxic Translatron. The Ataraxic Iteritas goes from beefy mellow bass sounds to metallic and screeching. The drums in this video were made with the Basimilus Iteritas Alter and Manis Iteritas, we used the new Make Noise René to sequence the three synth voices.
"Touch Sensing Note Memory is a performance oriented monophonic keyboard controller."
"Touch Sensing Note Memory is a performance oriented monophonic keyboard controller featuring 10 note plates (tunable over 5 octaves) and two transposer plates (variable transposition distance from -24 to +24 semitones). Highly accurate pitch (V/oct) output is guaranteed by a precision 16-bit DAC. Pressure sensing capability of note plates gives maximum human control through the dedicated CV output. On-board arpeggiator, sequencer, quantizer, pressure CV recorder. The module can save 19 presets including keyboard layout, sequence and all the options under settings.
"Still learning it, but had to record something. Great effing module!"

"XIIO is a touch plate keyboard based around the MPR121 capacitive touch sensor controller. It’s tuning and output is quantised to semitones. The module has no pressure output but it’s equipped with two auxiliary switches, which can bring some additional movement to your composition. XIIO can save 15 presets, which includes note layout and all the parameters under settings. Other features: glide, octave plates, arpeggiator."
"A simple patch using the μClouds in granular mode. μClouds is an 8hp version of Mutable Instruments 'Clouds'; a granular/texture synth module. Mine is running the Parasite firmware, which adds some more audio processing modes.
Here, a single VCO serves as an audio source, from which Clouds is taking small audio slices (grains), which can be pitch-shifted and combined with the incoming signal. Clouds also has built-in reverb.
