Hologram Electronics Microcosm: The Magic Sauce (Multi-Instrument Demo)
video by Sound Isles
"The Microcosm combines granular sampling, delay, and looping techniques to create gorgeous ambient accompaniment, transformation and immersion with its stereo reverb. Sounds are diffused into icy ambient textures, glitched sequences, pitched pads, and cinematic drones. Microloops can be locked into tight tap-tempo rhythms and synced to devices over MIDI. Save your effects settings, and recall your loops with user presets.
The secret is out. The Microcosm is an inspiring device that adds a magic sauce to whatever sounds you're cooking with. There is a lot of sonic exploration to be had and sound design potential with its well designed combination of features. The Microcosm is a multi-tool for musicians and explorers of all sounds.
Let's go on a journey.

VAI 9. Siel Cruise / Roland TR77 / Vermona DEG500
video by Vintage Audio Institute Italia
"A little space ballad with the Siel Cruise piano section run through the Vermona DEG500, that fast vibrato modulation is the reason we're keeping this machine.
The Roland TR77 drum machine is going through the DEG500 as well, with some Mu-tron Phasor II, while the bass line gets the Roland Space Echo treatment."
Roland FANTOM 4x4x4 Challenge using 4 NEW MODEL EXPANSIONS!!!
video by gattobus
"I accepted the 4x4x4 challenge that consists in building a song in just 4 minutes, using 4 Chords, playing 4 new Model Expansions for Roland FANTOM:
SH-101, Jupiter-8, JX-8P and JUNO-106.
I decided to raise the bar a little by doing this starting from scratch, using 4 INITIALIZED PRESETS!
Will I be able to do it?
Watch the video and see for yourself!!!
Hardcore synth nerds only!!!
(Headphones recommended)
#444xchallenge"
Kebu takes on the Fantom 4x4x4 Challenge
video by Kebu
"The idea of the challenge is to create a song with the Roland Fantom synth in 4 minutes, playing 4 chords only, and using the 4 new Model Expansions (vintage synth emulations of the Roland JX-8P, Juno-106, SH-101 and Jupiter-8).
Somehow I misunderstood the challenge and thought you ALSO had to compose the tune in 4 minutes ("create" = "compose"?). This made the challenge quite difficult! Not to come up with ideas, but to actually have it made in 4 minutes! I didn't succeed until my 14th attempt! Also, I decided to shoot everything in a single take and forced myself to come up with new musical ideas for each take, as I didn't allow myself to start with any ready-made ideas. In the end I decided to choose which synth sounds to use in advance, because otherwise it would have been impossible for me, because I couldn't get past the sound selection in 4 minutes. I'm so picky with my synth sounds. :)
Next, I challenge my friend Ludvig Olin with the #444xChallenge! And, of course, anyone with a Fantom can give it a go! Remember to use the tag #444xChallenge when you post your video.

Roland System 8 Juno 60 Plug-out patches (demo)
video by MIDERA
"A selection of System 8 Juno 60 plug-out patches I created tonight. All internal FX.
So, why did I buy this synth? I don’t know. It wasn’t a great reason. I own a JX3P, and have been sick of trying to figure out how to hook it up with my gear. It only works via OMNI mode (listens to every midi channel). This forced me to use other sequencers that I didn’t want to use. I could upgrade to KIWI, but that would cost me well over half the cost of a S8, so I decided to try that. Good news is - they sound identical (except the JX3P PWM goes through zero and the S8 does not).
So, I had the Juno 106 plug out in it and found I didn’t like it. This is no surprise. I had a 106 and didn’t like it, back in 2012. Of course, I wish I hadn’t sold it, because I sold it for $350. Ouch. However, you have to remember back then there weren’t replacement chips, only the acetone fix, with reports that it didn’t always work. So I sold it. Anyway, I replaced it with the Juno 60 plug out and wow it sounds really good. Way better than the 106 plug out, which I thought was exceedingly boring.
Everyone talks about how great the System 8 and 106 plug out are, but I actually like the Jupiter 8 and JX Plug outs the most. The S8 is good too, but now that I have the J60 in there, I honestly think they’re all really good. I think maybe people are just so used to Juno’s that they just don’t explore the JX or Jupiter 8? I’m not sure. Or maybe it’s that people scan presets? I never use them. I start from scratch. Every preset in this thing just sounds too processed and I don’t like it.
Now I sorta wish I’d have picked up a J6 or J60, but the prices have skyrocketed so I guess so long and thanks for all the fish. I’ll keep this green hitchhiker from another sector of the galaxy. It’s ugly, but it’s like a towel - you may automatically assume that I am also in possession of a toothbrush, washcloth, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet-weather gear, space suit etc., etc."
LIVEN XFM XFORM engine experiments [SONICWARE VLOG]
video by SONICWARE
"I shot Jam and an experimental video of the XFORM engine.
This engine can transform one sound into another sound over a period of time you like.
You can also specify the time it takes for the transformation to start.
We experimented with a variety of sounds, so please check it out.
今日はXFORMエンジンの実験動画とジャムを撮影しました。
このエンジンはある一つのサウンドから別のサウンドへ任意の時間をかけてトランスフォームさせる事ができます。
また、トランスフォームが開始までの時間も指定できます。
様々な音で実験したので是非ご覧下さい。"
