MC-707とMC-101買いました！

Published on Sep 24, 2019 SHINGA instant techno

約20年ぶり？かな？
復活しましたグルーヴボックス！早速買ってとりあえず打ち込んでみました！レビューはまた次回！

For the first time in about 20 years? Wonder?
Revitalized groove box! I bought it immediately and tried it for the time being! The review is next time!

I believe the MC-808, released in 2006, was the last Roland box to have the Groovebox moniker. The MV-8800, released in 2007, was a "Production Studio." Source: Groovebox on Wikipedia (someone needs to add the Synthstrom Deluge to their list).

Roland Jupiter-Xm iArpeggio Patterns + FANTOM Synth solo

Published on Sep 23, 2019 gattobus

"Just a little improvisation with the new Roland Jupiter-Xm and Fantom.
Every sound you hear comes from Jupiter-Xm (Drums, Bass, Pads, Arpeggios) Everything was played in real time except for the solo part that was played and added later.
Audio recorded straight to my audio interface, no cheating, no FX and no other parts were added in the mix.
Recorded and mixed using Ableton Live 10.
Headphones or a good pair of speakers recommended.

The patches I used in this video are factory presets.
Jupiter-Xm: SCENE 5-10 'Upside Down'
Fantom Z-Core: PR-A Tone 0067 'Wizard Lead'

OB-6: Distortion Illustration

Published on Sep 23, 2019 Kris Lennox

"Something for the Oberheim connoisseurs. Presently I'm working on a patch for a complex 6-voice piece that should be uploaded midweek. In the meantime, I thought I'd share a short illustration of the distortion on the OB-6. The distortion gets quite a bad rep - but whether it sounds good or not is more a matter of context. In this vid the dist is cranked to the maximum - which, if you ask around, is generally considered 'unmusical' and unworkable.

When in the specific context of drone, the distortion (at high levels) comes into its own. The OB-6 is in fact something of a drone machine (I'll upload some drone-style music in the coming months). Personally, I'd happily listen to slow filter sweeps across a chord for hours. It certainly has a sense of 'epic' to it.

PS try with headphones for the bass."

Our resident synth expert Mathew Jonson digs into one of his favourite vintage synths to share more about its pads and prowess, here on Telekom Electronic Beats TV."
