Ironclad Delay Casio VL1 & Monotron


Holy Moonlight Crusader

"Inronclad Delay (Casio VL1 & Monotron)

Enjoy this electronic track made with a Casio VL-1 calculator, Korg Monotron Delay, Sonicware Elz_1, Korg Volca Kick, and Korg Volca FM. These tabletop synthesizers are a lot of fun! The Sonicware Fm 8bit synth makes great electronic music, and so do the Korg Volcas. These are the Preacher's hobby, so enjoy some Christian made electronic music. #EDM #8Bit #Chiptune #Ambient #ElectronicMusic #Korg #Volca #KorgVolca #SonicwareELZ1 #Sonicware #Synthwave #Synth #Synthesizer #FMsynthesis #Synthesismusic #CasioVL1 #christianelectronicMusic"

4 ways of exploring the Queen of Pentacles by KiNK


Endorphin.es

"KiNK (@kink303) has become one of house music’s most in demand producers and remixers: his tracks easily stand out in any club night and they are second to none in the most competitive environment electronic music has ever seen. His abilities in finding the ‘sweet spot’ of new machines and even of sounds considered ‘classic’ and to reshape them into totally different beasts would be totally enough to justify the phenomenon. Yet this barely touches the surface of the story."

Oberheim Xpander Single Sounds Demo


Tom Noise

"A bunch of Oberheim Xpander presets, recorded straight without FX. You are hearing the raw mono sound coming from the synth. Recorded and arranged in Logic Pro.
Note the depth and dimension of the raw sound. Sounds almost like it had reverb on it. How did they achieve that?"

Roland MKS-50 or Alpha Juno? What's the difference?


Espen Kraft

"The Roland MKS-50 is the module version of the Alpha Juno 1 and 2, but are there any differences worth mentioning? Well, there's a few; The MKS-50 have PATCHES, the Alpha does not. A Patch contains a TONE (the sound itself) and a set of parameters, like volume, tune, transpose, mod depth et etc. All stored into each patch.

One of those parameters are the MONOPHONIC mode, where you can have each of the MKS-50s 6 voices respond differently to incoming midi information from say, a Midi guitar. The Alpha Juno can also be set to a simpler monophonic mode only, by setting up a Chord Memory with only the C4 as the chord. Then it becomes monophonic and it also sends out monophonic Midi information that way. The Alpha can store ONE Chord Memory, while the MKS-50 can store 16 different Chord Memories.

The electronics inside the MKS-50 and the Alphas are on paper exactly the same. Because of that they're supposed to sound exactly the same as well. For this video I loaded in my custom Roland Alpha Juno patch bank into the MKS-50 and recorded both synths at the same time. Same volume, effects, levels, tuning, mod depths etc.. In the video I just mute on/off. Btw, the Alpha Juno 2 has a memory cartridge slot, the MKS-50 does not.

Do they sound exactly the same?"

ARP 2600 with AM2140 EMu Resonant Filter


O.Z. Hall

"This video explores expanding the ARP 2600 with an addition multi-mode filter. This is similar to what one might do with an ARP 2500 with both the 24db/oct Low Pass filter as well as the 1047 Colin multi-mode filter. I hope you enjoy the video"

"Here is a demonstration of the Oberheim OB-8 and Prophet 5 Rev4. I went though some sounds, and jammed along. I am curious what sounds you guys think work best on each machine. All the best!"
