Vermona Digital Rhythm Machine (DRM)

Published on Apr 7, 2019 Vco Vca

"quick demo of the great Vermona DRM. Recorded straight from the box with no effects or treatment (you can get an idea of the noise level).

Regardless of the name the 12 sounds are pure analog, in a very Roland TR-606, CR78 or Korg KR55.
You get a very useful 32 steps TR style sequencer, with the ability to record real time too.
16 presets and 10 user programs.
Stereo outputs, headphone outputs, several jack input to control start/stop, solo, bass only and preset change, MIDI IN & OUT.
Also there is a 30 pin connector that can get seperate outputs for each sound as long as trigger in and outs.
Very easy to make dedicated jacks outputs from the pin, I did it and you get a much better sound than the one comming from the stereo out (it bypasses the amp section).
All in all a great machine."

"More strange voices* after this point! Here's a continuation of the earlier video. I can see the value of the VT4's additional parameters, which allow more fine tuning of the sound you want.
*and I actually like some of the effects with the ambient crowd noises later on."

Bryce still has his jacket! Along with familiar faces in the maker/synth world, you'll spot Depeche Mode's Martin Gore and his wife Kerrilee, Junkie XL, BT, Brian Kehew of the Moog Cookboog, & Mitchel Sigman of Berlin & more.
Update: JJ Abrams is in there as well. I thought I recognized him. Yes, he's into synths. Check out his custom Synthwood Pro-One. He's been mentioned on the site a few other times as well.
Update2: a few more you might recognize, aside from the makers of course: Michael Boddicker, Ellison Wolf of Waveform, Bill Brown, Drew Neumann, and Ed Buller – of Node etc.

If I missed anyone let me know!

Close Encounters Of The Third Kind "The Conversation" performed on the Baloran The River synthesizer

Published on Apr 6, 2019 Sean Christopher Evoking Emotion with Synthesizers

"If you haven't seen this movie in a while I urge you to do so, as it is a FANTASTIC movie! I recreated the iconic synth/UFO conversation scene from Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind using only the sounds from the incredible Baloran The River synthesizer.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind is a 1977 American science fiction film written and directed by Steven Spielberg, and starring Richard Dreyfuss, Melinda Dillon, Teri Garr, Bob Balaban, Cary Guffey, and François Truffaut. It tells the story of Roy Neary, an everyday blue-collar worker in Indiana, whose life changes after an encounter with an unidentified flying object (UFO).

The score for the film was composed, conducted and produced by John Williams, who had previously worked on Spielberg's Jaws. Williams wrote over 300 examples of the iconic five-tone motif for Close Encounters—the five tones are used by scientists to communicate with the visiting spaceship as a mathematical language—before Spielberg chose the one incorporated into the film's signature theme."
