Minimoog Feedback Echoes
video by kapillarkraft
"While exploring my new old Minimoog I tried some pedals within the feedback loop. Mini output into an echo and then fed back into the external in.
Osc 1 does the drone, Osc 3 does the beat, Osc 2 does the lead voice.
The pedal is pressing the key.
Enjoy watching."

Charlottenburg, Live Ambient Impro, Wavestate, MicroFreak v3, Volca Drum, Monologue
video by Waveformer
"In this live improvised jam, I introduce the Wavestate to some old and new friends - MicroFreak, Monologue, Volca Drum, Novation Circuit, 3 Zoom MS-70CDRs and Korg NTS-1. The only prerecorded sequence is the drums on Volca Drum. The rest of the jam is live playing and active use of the arpeggiators on the Wavestate and MicroFreak. The recorded video is annotated with some notes about the performance.
During the jam, I let each synth/layer have a solo part where it is up front and center - the MicroFreak, the Monologue and the two arp parts and the pad part on the Wavestate. I try to think of them as different members of a band.
My music on Bandcamp: http://waveformer42.bandcamp.com/
The Wavestate patch/performance is a slightly modified version of "WF Charlottenburg" and is a part of the "Berlin School and Ambient Construction Kit" available here: https://gumroad.com/waveformer.
It has four layers - 2 arpeggiators, one arpeggiated bass and one pad. I added some inharmonic wavesamples to steps 9-16 of the pad sample wavesequence, moved around a few notes and rests on the timing lanes for the two arps, added some octave shifts to the pitch sequences, and some ratcheting to one of the arps.
During the jam, I play around with the wavesequence lanes for all the four layers - timing lane to change rhythm, sample lane to vary the wavesamples, pitch lane to add some octave changes to some notes, shape to add ratcheting, and gate to add some variation to note length. The wavesequence loop lengths are different from lane to lane, creating interesting polymeter effects. I also modify pan, filter cutoff, envelope decay and reverb mix through the jam.

The Terminator | Korg DSS-1 Sampling Synthesizer
video by Espen Kraft
"I've always wanted to make an arrangement of the classic Terminator theme in a more romantic or nostalgic way.
With the help of some truly amazing pad/string sounds from Analogcity I finally did it.
The Korg DSS-1 is the Terminator among samplers in terms filter power. I mean seriously, not much comes close to what this machine can do. Highly underrated. It eats the almost all other synthesizers for breakfast when it comes to sheer power.
Check out the patches from Analogcity here:

Gear used in the demo:
Korg DSS-1 - all synths
Korg MS10 - bass (just a little bit)
Korg KR-55 - Kick and hats"

"Recently serviced and sounding extra beefy. Super rare, original OB-1, Black MK1. A few small dings, dents and scuffs, as you'd expect from a piece this old."

Buchla 200/200e with Expressive Touché
video by Luc Debeck
"I made some banana cables to mini jacks and used them to connect the 4 cv outs from the Touché to the Buchla, the 1979 MSV in this example. One of the 4 cables has a split cable grounding cable to the ground of the the case. It works perfect."
