Arturia Polybrute Sound Design - Vangelis Blade Runner Theme (Free Patch)

video by Creative Spiral

"Polybrute landed today. Woohoo! I spent a bit of time acclimating myself with the interface and doing some technical tests for voice modeling, then programmed a first patch inspired by Vangelis Blade Runner theme.

I've uploaded the patch here if you want to download it for free: https://www.presetpatch.com/synth/art...

This synth is going to be amazing for replicating classic CS and MemoryMoog type of sounds, and with all the modulation capabilities, it will explore many new worlds. Definitely looking forward to spending time on this spaceship."

Memorymoog Sound Design

video by wedream2

"I finally got an opportunity to take a deep dive into sound design on the Memorymoog (after complete restoration and upgrades performed by Rosen Sound). I tweaked most of the factory sounds and added expression pedal programming to each. In the following examples, a factory sound is identified by the bracketed number and the name of the factory sound. I also created original sounds that are identified by name only (no bracketed numbers). I used the additional stereo outputs recently installed, so listening through stereo headphones is recommended. The panning positions of the voices cycle, similar to the OB-8, except when the cyclic memory mode is selected, where upon the same key repeatedly played, holds the same pan position. To avoid going over an hour in length, I eliminated multiple factory and original sounds from this demo. The more interesting and complicated original sounds are showcased."

Metropolix + Syntrx // A Quick First Test

video by Genshi Media Group

"::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND STEREO EFFECTS, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::

This is a quick first test of the new Intellijel Metropolix Sequencer paired up with my Erica Synths Syntrx Synthesizer (makes for a perfect pairing!) The big new thing with the Metropolix over their previous Metropolis sequencer is the new "Accumulator" feature, which allows you to have different notes in a scale play, not only per step, but per Pulse count on each and every step, or per Ratchet on every step! It's groundbreaking! And makes for a very musical sequencer in only 8 steps..."

GForce OB-E quick demo

video by boxoftextures

"Quick demo of the OB-E synth software from GForce, makers of the fine M-Tron software among other things. The patch is my own, freshly made. Had no idea this was coming out, and when I saw it this morning was more or less an instabuy. When I was a lad in high school I'd go to Sam Ash on 48th Street in New York City on my way home from high school in the '70s and play all the synths until they'd kick me out, often when it got busy once folks got off work but more often probably because I'd accidentally made some horrid and/or way too loud sound. I played Minimoogs, ARPs, and the Oberheims, and eventually saved up enough to get my first Minimoog. But there was no way I was ever going to be able to get one of those Oberheim Four- or eight-voices as they cost a small fortune at the time. And kind of still do, I suppose. But this software emulation comes darn close. It has the flavor of the eight-voice, and it sounds fantastic. It's also modern, meaning because it's software there are handy shortcuts to make patch programming a bit easier than on the original hardware version. Had great fun making this first patch, and can see getting lost in it for the next week or two. Highly recommended.
