Roland Jupiter-4 Analog Synthesizer (1978) Child Of The 80s - retrowave track


Published on Nov 23, 2018 RetroSound

"(c) 2018 vintage synthesizer demo by RetroSound

all synthesizer sounds: Roland Jupiter-4 analog synthesizer from the year 1978 (early BA662 filter model)
The internal arpeggiator is triggered by the LinnDrum.
drums: LinnDrum (1982)
recording: multi-track without midi
fx: reverb and delay

This is an early BA662 filter based Jupiter-4 (vs. the later, more common IR3109). These are in my opinion the better, wilder sounding models, really unique sound character.

Used by Duran Duran, Human League, Yazoo and many others."

Casio SK-1 - Is a full production possible with only this?


Published on Nov 23, 2018 Espen Kraft

Completed track starts at 3:50

"Casio SK-1 sampling keyboard from 1985. Is it just a retro toy these days? Is it possible to make a full production using only sounds and samples from the SK-1?

https://soundcloud.com/espenkraft

I think it is and I've sampled a couple of sounds from the Roland Alpha Juno 2 into it, multi tracked it in the computer. I've also slowed down a couple of the internal rhythm tracks and recorded those into the DAW and from there chopped these up and created a new drum track.
Vocals recorded and voila! A brand new track. "The Weekend".
Every sound is off the SK-1, vocals added, mixed and mastered.

"Pacific Timeline" // Patch Remix (ann annie x constant shapes)


Published on Nov 22, 2018 ann annie

"Constant Shapes sent me a midi file from his own original patch to play through Hermod and remix! a quick reflection from across the lands..."

And the latest video from Constant Shapes:

“Dissolve” (Prologue) - Eurorack Ambience and Liquid Light - Squarp Hermod, Qu-Bit Chord, Plaits

Published on Sep 7, 2018 Constant Shapes

"Liquid Lightshow by Logos - https://www.instagram.com/logosvisual/

Some insight as to how I set up my "generative" patches.

Patch:
Chord Drones, root & 3rd go through 2hp verb, then to mixer
5th goes through rings
7th through clouds

Plaits sequenced by Hermod, 3 randomized melodies in C Maj
Plaits then passes through DLD for some proper random weirdness.

As usual for me, OC is running quadraturia and all sorts of parameters are modulated, including but not limited to:
Rings Brightness
Plaits Timbre
Chord Structure / Voicing (as always)

Hermod is sending gates to trigger reverse of DLD on and off.

Thats pretty much it!
from 80 to 40 BPM
With love!
Griffin"

Bach on the Prophet 6 Synthesizer - Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring


Published on Nov 22, 2018 Tom Loncaric

"Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring is the most common English title of a piece of music derived from a chorale setting of the cantata Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147 ("Heart and Mouth and Deed and Life"), composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1723.

Played live on the Dave Smith Instruments Sequential Prophet 6 synthesizer. There is a touch of delay from a Moog pedal and reverb from the Prophet's internal effects.

The sound in the video was inspired by a brass patch I found on a 1983 Sequential Circuits Prophet 600. In order to imitate the timbre of the vintage synth, a few tricks were employed:

Oscillator gain settings are set low in order to not drive the filter too hard. The slop function is on about 25%, and the polymod is modulating oscillator 1 a tiny bit, and both these things give the slight sense of pitch instability found on vintage synthesizers. The high pass filter is cutting some of the low end to imitate the lesser bass response of the old gear. Finally, I added some noise and distortion (!) to match the slight fuzziness of the vintage Prophet."
