IK Multimedia SampleTron 2 - Re-live the magic of tape-based sampling


video by ikmultimedia



" In this video, keyboard guru and Product Manager Erik Norlander gives an overview of IK's new Mellotron virtual instrument SampleTron 2."

"SampleTron 2 combines the powerful sound engine of IK’s award-winning SampleTank 4 with our industry-leading tape modeling technology to recreate the distinctive, ultra-vibey sounds of tape-based samplers from the ‘60s and ‘70s, along with quirky early digital sample players and vocoders.

This comprehensive collection features deep sampling of vintage Mellotron® and Chamberlin tapes, a collection of new acoustic “non-Tron” sounds with tape processing, and now enables you to load your own samples and create modern audiophile Tron sounds that are uniquely yours. https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products...

Two Erica Synths DB-01s: Dirty Noodles


video by Richard DeHove

"Was setting up to attempt some gentle ambient bleeps on the DB-01 (yes, really!) when the B3K bass overdrive begged a moments attention. Before I could say 'this wasn't the plan' the second machine was on, both were in keyboard mode, and the droning began. Anyone with non-programmable synths knows you have to capture the moment before a single twiddle vaporizes the sound forever, so here it is. Effects on the right-side synth are the B3K into the Vahlbruch SpaceTime delay. The left unit goes from the GEB-7 bass EQ into the DD-8 delay. Both then get a touch of Fabfilter Pro-R reverb (on the 'Huge Synth Space' preset). No other effects. Drums come from a single pattern on the Norand Mono. Good headphones or speakers will reward with some very heavy bass.

Smokey Quartz - Plant Music 22 (Aloe + PlantWave, Polygamist & Wretch)


video by Smokey Quartz

"In this Plant Music video I connect the Plant Wave to a lil Aloe we have growing in a pot outside. The MIDI coming from the PlantWave plays the Knas Ekdahl Polygamist which then sends pulse waves and trigger signals to the Metasonix S-1000 aka Wretch Machine."

Sampling the Cat's Meow 😻 (FREE OCTAVE THE CAT SYNTHESIZER SAMPLE PACK)


video by Perfect Circuit

"Download the FREE Sample Pack: https://bit.ly/2QvXsOq

Everyone knows and loves the Minimoog and the Odyssey, but there is another fur-ocious synthesizer from the late 1970s. The Cat from Octave Electronics is a compact, highly playable keyboard synth with all the hiss, growl, and purr you’d expect in an instrument from this era. But with a keyboard that can play duophonically and stellar cross-modulation potential, the Cat provides plenty of sounds that can bite!

Normally, we love to show off the sounds and capabilities of a vintage synth, but this time we wanted to try something a little bit different. We decided to throw together a free sample pack with some of the sounds we made in our afternoon with the Cat, offering all kinds of percussive and bizarre one-shot sounds to spice up your tracks. Meowza!
