From Brunswick to Portland with Future Sound Systems

Published on Apr 3, 2019 DivKidVideo

"BONUS VIDEO BELOW // It's always a total pleasure to get to chat to Finlay from Future Sound Systems and over the past year I've gotten to know the latest FSS team member Jamie too. Jamie has a pretty face (wait for the note in the video) so was asked to stop pulling focus and turn away from the camera a little. Silliness aside ... I got the chance to sit down and check out the new Portland patchable, eurorack compatible / mountable drum machine that followed on from Brunswick. So we talk about background and products and generally had a laugh.

If you'd like to look at the manufacturing of Eurorack modules, desktop synths and drum machines as well as hear an extension of this main interview where we discuss new products and further ideas then check out the bonus video on Patreon here - https://www.patreon.com/posts/25816927 - by doing so you're actively supporting both exclusive content for patrons and further public content. Thank you! :)"

Roland NEW VT4 (Voice Transformer) Test A - Robot Voices Galore! z15

Published on Apr 3, 2019 VJ FRANZ K

"'Hard Tuned' Voices are more popular than ever. What will a user of the Voice Transformer 3 think, when presented with the new VT4? There are definitely similarities in sound, the VT4 has some useful new options. With either one, you're going to want to practice a while to get the best sound out of it - you have to "sing into" the effects in a certain way to get the best pitch tracking out them, for example.
Things do get a bit silly, I wasn't totally able to hear in the crowded convention hall!"

KORG DDD-1 SAMPLE PACK [Waves & Ableton 10 Drum Kit]

Published on Apr 3, 2019 Synthezaur

"DOWNLOAD LINK: http://bit.ly/DDD-1SamplePack

I made this awesome Korg DDD-1 Sample Pack. I sampled every instrument 64 times - each variation is pitched inside the machine, so you get all hissy and noisy samples in original lo-fi aesthetic. 1152 samples total.

I created Ableton 10 Drumrack with all the macros, colors and stuff. But, of course you can use it as standard .wav library.

Let me know what do you think!"

Modular Haiku


Playlist:
1. Haiku Nº 01 - Oceans Away // Reflections and Modular Meditations - Self Generation

Reflections of one,
the ocean deep in thought,
noise to pass the time

2. Haiku Nº 02 - Upstream // Akemie's Taiko, Ornament & Crime, Lo-fi Junky

Upstream contrast sound,
at end flowing together,
the river moves soft

Across the land yet
Moons apart beneath new skies
sounds to light the way

4. Haiku Nº 04 - Contrast // Mutable Instruments Elements, Rings & Clouds

Beauty in nature Reconstructing / rebuilding the
under hum of rushing life ---- system. Voltage Block doing most

5. Haiku Nº 05 Pastel // Mutable Rings, Clouds, Elements, Three Sisters

- Pastel (lullaby sky) -
pastel splashed upon
a lullaby for the sky,
whispers and textures

6. Haiku Nº 06 "Latitudeº" (Self Generative) // Elements, Rings, & Clouds,

Watching the weather,
Shifts forward then back again,
Sipping on the rain.
- Self Generative Version of "Latitudeº" Feeling the warmth from this patch in the increasingly cold weather..

7. Haiku Nº 07 - "Cordillera" // Two Rings, Clouds & Mangrove

parallel peaks hush,
listen to the wind and trees,
echoes to rest by
~ from the album "Cordillera".
