Skint, faint hearted and drowning-prone (dub tech eurorack modular jam)


Published on Jan 23, 2019 sector

"A little dub tech jam at Cala Rossa. this bay is undoubtfully one of the most peculiar spot of the island. let´s see 3 curiosity about this place:

1) In 241 b.c. the final battle of the first punic war is said to have taken place in front of this bay (the battle of the egad). The roman fleets stroke down with such fury on the carthaginian that the water turned red (hence the name Cala Rossa, which means the red bay). In this sea lies thousands of carthaginian and roman wreck, making it one of the most interesting archeological spots in the island

2) Around 1200-1500 a.d. turkish pirates where raging around sicily (and sicilian pirates where raging around turkey). One of the most vicious pirates was Turghud Alì, known as Drogot, or dragut. So vicious that was referred to as "the drawn sword of islam". His action was so scary and mercyless around the egad island, that the terror spread still remains to this days. His ghost is said to wander around here, with his sharp beard and his even sharper sword. The ghost of the Mammadrau

3)Petronilla was the long yearned descent of a limestone quarry owner living in Cala Rossa. But a woman could never be the head of a quarry. One day (some says at age 18, some says at age 23) Petronilla suddenly disappeared. Zu Nillu took her place, and steered the cave for the following years, living in a still standing house that guards the bay from above. Died at age 100, her documents has been discovered to be misteriously changed, she became a man by all means,and of petronilla not a trace was left. The movie "viola di mare" (purple sea) was based around this facts.

I used an Erica synths pico voice and Pittsburgh sv1sequenced by squarp hermod, and 2 Erica Synths pico drums sequenced by bastl knit rider. 2 pico dsp, a black hole dsp, blue lantern sir mixalot, expert sleepers disting mk4 compression algorithm on the master. Recorded live directly into a Canon 600d with magic lantern"

Oberheim MATRIX 1000 Demo / epic Pads & Strings / 1.20 / by Volcarock


Published on Jan 23, 2019 Rob Welt

"Oberheim MATRIX 1000 Demo / epic Pads & Strings (with FX: Oto Bam & Pigtronix Echolution Pro)
Two days ago my classic analog synth from 1987 arrived. After installing the 1.20 firmware and listen through all patches I made this demo with my favorite cinematic pads & strings. Gigli detune is set to 7 for sweet vintage vibes :-). I just recorded the jam and shortened it to about 6 minutes.

Controller/MIDI:
CME 37 and Stereoping Controller Matrix 10006R

FX:
Delay made with Pigtronix Echolution 2
Chorus Reverb with Oto Bam

I know there are a hundreds of Matrix 1000, Matrix 6 and Matrix 6R videos without FX outside. So I decided to make use of some hardware FX. sadly no video. but soon I will make a real video on my main channel VOLCAROCK with this outstanding sweet sounding synth! Anyway , hope you enjoy my pads & strings demo!"

MPC Sound Design Tricks Part 1 (Multiple Randomised Samples on a Single Pad)


Published on Jan 22, 2019 Praxis Axis

"In Program Edit Mode, use 4 layers set to Random, X Simultaneous Play, to create textures of up to 5 randomized samples triggered by a *single* pad, from a pool of up to 20. Approach what is possible in software like Twisted Tools' S-Layer, but natively within the Live."

FISHER SC-300K BOOMBOX Stereo Receiver w/ Removable Keyboard

Note the speakers are missing. You can find one speakers posted back in 2013 here.

Vintage 1980s Fisher SC-300K Am-Fm-Sw Cassette Boombox with built-in and detachable SCK-30 “Stereo Music Composer” synthesizer keyboard. Unit is in good cosmetic condition and partially working but not complete so being sold for parts or restoration.
Boombox was tested by hooking up stereo speakers with 1/8” mini jack plugs; Radio is working on all bands and heard many stations on Am & Fm with very good fidelity and volume. Didn’t spend time on the 2 shortwave bands. Cassette is not working but it just needs new belts; all the buttons are working and tape loads & ejects fine plus I can hear the motor running indicating it will work once repaired with belts.

The electronic keyboard and synth is working both with the boombox and separately with RCA cables connected to an amplifier. There is an LCD display showing the notes or keys being used. A sequencer with an eight-pattern memory stores just over 500 notes. The keyboard’s battery compartment is clean and has the cover. Same with the boombox; no leakage or bad contacts. Includes cover and AC cord. There is an internal voltage adapter for use on 120-210-240 worldwide settings.

It is being sold as is as shown, missing the speakers. Also, there are some cosmetic issues like a bend in the antenna; a plastic hook is broken on the top right that mates with the keyboard, but the synth locks down on both sides and is held securely as it is now. Also there are various scratches and rub marks on the tuner & cassette faceplate as well as the keys are discolored from age & sun but overall it still presents nicely."

Coming to the Sequential Prophet X: Minimmog, Prophet T8, OB-X, ARP 2600, Roland Jupiters & More

In case you missed the update in this post, Dave Smith will be showing some new sound libraries from 8Dio for the Prophet X at NAMM this year in Meeting Room TKAB.

They include the following add-on packs:

Minimoog Model D
Sequential Circuits T8
Oberheim OBX
ARP 2600
Jupiter 4
Jupiter 6
Moog Prodigy

Expect these to be good, and polyphonic. 8Dio is known for their high quality sample packs, included in the Prophet-X. Full details to come...

Update: and the official press release:

"Anaheim, CA—Jan 23, 2019— At this year’s NAMM convention, Sequential will debut eight new add-on packs from sound developer 8Dio for their flagship samples-plus-synthesis keyboard, the Prophet X. The sample packs are focused largely on vintage synthesizers and include the Minimoog Model D, Sequential Circuits T8, Oberheim OBX, ARP 2600, Juno 60, Jupiter 6, Moog Prodigy, as well as a new deep-sampled piano.

The Prophet X has garnered critical acclaim for its sonic versatility and sound design capabilities through its substantial internal library of 150 GB of sample content as well as its ability to import up to 50 GB of additional user samples and add-on content from sound developers.

All sample content can be manipulated by the Prophet X sound engine, which powers two simultaneous sample-based instruments plus two high-resolution digital oscillators, with a full complement of traditional synthesis tools, all processed through analog filters. Dual digital effects and a 64-step polyphonic sequencer round out the package. In standard performance mode, the instrument provides bi-timbral, 8-voice stereo, or 16-voice mono operation. 32-voice performance mode, allows paraphonic filter operation when using a single sampled instrument and oscillator.

'I’m excited to introduce these new Prophet X add-ons from 8dio at NAMM,” commented Dave Smith. They add an interesting vintage slant to a very modern synth. To have these classic instruments available to perform with or to manipulate with the Prophet X synthesis engine makes an already-powerful musical tool even more versatile. '

Dave will be representing Sequential at the NAMM show at Meeting Room TKAB.

The add-ons packs will be available for download from 8Dio’s website at a date to be determined after the show.

Disclamer: All musical instrument manufacturer and product names used in add-on packs by 8Dio are trademarks of their respective owners, which are in no way associated or affiliated with 8Dio or Sequential LLC."
