Welcome to the Machine | Shared System & Beads

video by Cinematic Laboratory

"In this episode of 'Shared Guests' I've added Beads to the Shared System to be modulated by WoggleBug and process some DPO grains. It's funny how the character of Beads changes depending on the ecosystem it's in. Westcoast Beads!"

Elastic Drums Update 2.4 - Sample, Preset, Store changes ...

video by Oliver Greschke

"With Update 2.4 structuring of samples and presets has been changed: InApp Purchase sample kits are now only loaded when needed, the more than 200 presets are now also available as free downloads. This has reduced the size of the app by 2/3. You will find the downloaded files in the apps document folder, also visible via the „Files“ app."

Roland JD-800 Model Expansion on JUPITER-Xm - Quick Review in Description

video by Robert Saint John

"Roland #JD800​ on #JUPITERxm​ - Quick performance, all sounds live on the Xm and from the new JD-800 Model Expansion installed on it (standard Xm drum track).

I had my doubts, but the JD-800 Model Expansion is very worthy of the JUPITER-X/Xm. It may not have analog roots, but it does have character and presence. I didn't expect it to map well to the JUPITER-X (let alone the Xm) controls, but Roland did an outstanding job here. After a few hours, it's quite smooth, especially with our friends 'Shift' and 'Function.'

Most important, I think it really brings an additional class of Tones to the X/Xm that were not there. There's a crisp-almost-crunchy feel to many of the waveforms that are undoubtedly digital but still really useful. And the new multi MFX effects? *chef's kiss* There are some gems in there that will take some time to explore, and it will be great to use them with other Models as well.

Five stars, highly recommended."

Eventide Blackhole VST

Today I talked to a friend I hadn't talked to in almost 30 years. All that time, just seemingly gone. Weird to come across someone you knew when you were 10 years old. Completely different people now. Parts of your life shattered, others built up. Condensing my life story into a few minutes just reminds me how quickly it goes. We all know that - it goes and it goes and it's gone.

What about this track? Well, this track started when I decided I was going to sell my Matrix 1000. I made a mistake though. I plugged it in. That's the first sound you hear. Now, this is particularly a weird patch, because only this one voice chip sounds this way. All 5 of the others don't. I'm guessing it was a replaced chip at one point. I used the Matrix in mono mode - which is a setting within the MIDI menu. I thought I could replicate this patch in my Matriarch (nope) or my Prophet 10 (nope). Something super haunted about it. I think that's the best way to describe the Matrix.

It's haunted."

TB-303 Into Beads | Acid Eurorack Modular Synthesizer | Happy 303 Day!

video by sworn64

"In celebration of 303 Day I did a little experimenting running the TB-303 into Mutable Instruments Beads.

Roland TB-303 into MXR Distortion + into Mutable Instruments Beads
Sending a clock signal to the Seed input and a clocked sine wave LFO to the Size input on Beads.

Mixed through an Endorphin.es Cockpit 2 using the side chain ducking.

I’m using the Polyend Preset as a simple yet effective way to mute and unmute the kick drum. It is controlling a switch on the WMD SL3KT that has a gate signal passing through it being sent to the kick drum on the Endorphin.es Queen of Pentacles.

Club of the Knobs Custom Moog 900 Series Analog Modular Synthesizer Clone

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This gigantic system was custom-built for a synth aficionado here in Los Angeles. This is one of the largest analog modular synths in existence, with over 140 modules. It truly is unmatched in potential and sound creation power. In addition to the usual suspects you would find in a system like this, this one has several sequencers, MIDI to CV converters, a vocoder, lag processors, analog delays, reverbs, and a panoply of esoteric and obscure processing that has never been offered before, for the master synthesist. A complete list of modules will be listed shortly. The last few pics are with the cool LED strips turned on."
