Red Kitten and a Red Roland SH-101

Spotted this one on Catsynth.

Expressive eyes. Reminds me of Amos of Moog Music. :)

Ableton Instrument Mega pack - The Farfisa Compact Duo

Published on Nov 19, 2019 Expanding Sound

"The Farfisa Compact Duo. A classic organ used by Pink Floyd and so many other rock musicians of the past. It has that awesome 60s sound. From the spring tank reverb attached to the gigantic power section, to the awesome vibrato and tremolo patches, this organ really harkens the classic rock sound. This pack of 20 instruments captures the iconic sound through multi sampled presets. I also added a little flair of my own. Hope you enjoy it!"

A Piece for Modular and Theremin

Published on Nov 18, 2019 Rhythmicons

"This is a draft of a concept of an alien world. Recorded in one take.

Moslab 901 oscillators with a bit of FM on the filter going to an AKG BX-10 Reverb. Theremin going to a Roland RE-301 Chorus Echo with a touch of delay and reverb.

Thanks for listening."

MATRIXSYNTH Cap at Alessandro Cortini and Richard Devine Public Works SF Performance

Nice pic in via Synth Addict :)

"Hell of a show on Sat.night in SF, and the Matrixsynth custom cap was representing. I saw several Matrixsynth official t-shirts there as well.

We are legion... :-)

Cortini had a great Buchla, etc. set synced with some very artistic videos.

Devine was sheer madness, as expected."

And for those of you more interested in the performance (sheesh!), Synth Addict took some video but has yet to review and upload them. "Videos will be posted soon if they actually turned out OK."

Note this is a custom hat and I do like it! You can find a smaller font military style hat here, original baseball cap here, and finally, a trucker hat here. More MATRIXSYNTH bling here.

Korg Prologue Volumes I & II (V2) Presets by Robust American Patches

via Robust American Patches

"The (V2) update is free for all existing owners of the (V1) release! Korg recently updated the Prologue OS to Version 2 which unfortunately played havoc with most of our patches when using a controller with aftertouch. The newly added midi aftertouch was assigned to the LFO depth by default and this managed to turn nearly every sound into an absolute mess. We just happen to love aftertouch here at Robust American Patches and we use it quite extensively in most everything we do. So, we couldn't let things stand like that. We went back and added usable aftertouch assignments to practically every patch in Volumes I and II. Then we changed a few things that bothered us with the original release. We also created brand new patch list files that put the old patch lists to shame. Finally, we added 5 extra patches for a grand total of 135! Many of the patches have been totally re-worked and no longer resemble their (V1) counterparts. This prompted us to include both versions of the patches with every purchase. We've been very busy creating all new demonstrations for the (V2) update and we've just added a short demo song with stems."
