Best Ambient Synth Shootout #90: Ensoniq SQ-R Plus - Song 3

Published on May 22, 2020 Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the third song with the SQ-R Plus/32. It's a 32 voice 8-part multitimbral synthesizer. It features 9 Transwaves, Ensoniq's kind of wave tables.

I used for the recording the following FX chain:
SQ-R Plus/32 - Digitech Obscura - Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe - GFI System Specular Reverb 2. Depending on the recorded track some FX are deactivated

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track.

Well, I decided to go back to the basics, but at the same time make something useful for the synth community and do a kind of competition (I like competitions;-). What's my best synth for ambient music :-)

Enjoy :-)

AMBIENT Arpeggiator on Arturia PIGMENTS

Published on May 21, 2020 Alba Ecstasy

"75 #Ambient #Patches for #ArturiaPigments 👉https://www.albaecstasy.ro

This is a reinterpretation of the Pigments part I played for 'This Path Has No End' track from my latest album, “Realm of Silence”, available on Bandcamp 👉https://albaecstasy.bandcamp.com

Played in real time here, with the Prophet REV2 (if it matters somehow!) as controller, what you hear is what you can get out of the Arturia Pigments.

You know me: I'm surrounded all the time by analog and VA, digital, FM, wavetable - whatever synths, but, from time to time, I like to explore virtual goodies like this one. Because it's not important what you use to obtain a sound, but the result. And Arturia makes really nice virtual synthesizers, easy to integrate into a hybrid mix of instruments.

All internal effects of Pigments.

Hope you'll enjoy as much as I did!

PS: This patch is not included in the above named pack, but it will be part of a new bank!"

Yamaha FS1R | The Hidden Treasure!

Published on May 21, 2020 Espen Kraft

"Yamaha FS1R, at one time a hidden gem of a sound module. Not anymore. A total awesome source of magic is ready to burst out!

Support this channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/espenkraft

The FS1R is the pinnacle of Yamahas FM synthesis with algos holding up to 8 (!) operators at once. In addition you have Formant synthesis that you can blend in with the classic FM and these sounds can be setup into 4 different parts with traditional, albeit digital, filters, amps, LFOs and whatnot.
It can even import original DX7 sysex.
The result can be spectacular, As I demonstrate in this video.

The module flopped back in '98 and was produced for only just over a year and quickly went into the digital purgatory. But over the years to come, rumors began spreading about this other-wordly sound module and now it's highly sought after. As it should be!

The demo song, called 'Shoplifting' can be found here:

PULSER M75 Analog Synthesizer 1977 | HD DEMO

Published on May 21, 2020 AnalogAudio1

M75 or MX-75?

"(c) 2020 by AnalogAudio1

I played the Pulser M75 partly with delay effects from a Korg SDD-3000 (right channel only). Be careful with headphones, it's raw analog power ;-)

The Pulser M75 was manufactured in Japan in 1977 by 'Pulser Corporation'. It's identical to the Multivox MX75. The keyboard has aftertouch ('touch sensor effect') which can control vibrato depth, volume, pitch, growl and such things. It's a monophonic synthesizer with 2 VCOs, 1 Lowpass Filter, 1 VCA, 1 LFO, Sample & Hold, Noise Generator and presets, which you can modify. It's not really free programmable, but you can do some nice things with it: great leads, basses and FX. It has a very pleasing vintage analogue tone. A cool and rare synth!"
