Radikal Technologies Spectralis 2 monosynth demo


MIDERA

"Another demo of some stuff you can do with the Spectralis 2 Monosynth engine. This is a hybrid synth in that the oscillators are digital, but the filter is analog. Elektron Machinedrum was used for a simple beat to go over the synth part."

CSR Randomize Function


Todd Barton

"A little unfolding of Randomize function of the CV and Audio sections of the Control And Signal Router by Doug Clauder at http://studiohsoftware.com

Though it has kinship to the Buchla 210e there are so many more features and, for my mind, a more friendly and intuitive interface.

And big thanks to my Patreon family for their continued support of these video demos and tutorials https://www.patreon.com/synthtodd"

Synthstrom Deluge - Panic - A synth darkwave jam inspired by Crystal Castles


Payton Carter

"Here's a synthpop/darkwave track on the Deluge, inspired by Crystal Castles. There are a couple of string presets toward the end of the factory patches that totally evoke Gary Numan and The Cure. I started messing around with one of those patches, and that's where this track came from.

I'm starting to warm up to the Deluge! After about a week, I'm definitely more comfortable performing in the song view. Keeping track of clips is still a little confusing, but it's easier with practice. I decided to perform this track live, instead of writing everything out in the arranger view. That definitely feels like a more organic way of writing, which I think is good for me. I'm the kind of guy that can spend an hour trying to get the automation on a filter sweep just write, so I like how performing live forces you to make decisions in real time, which can reduce the "choice paralysis" I can get when arranging a composition."
