Roland DDR-30 Digital Drums 1985 | When Roland took on Simmons

video by Espen Kraft

"Roland DDR-30 from 1985. The brain in a digital drum system Roland designed to compete with Simmons at the time. Complete this came with a full set of drum pads to go along.

The DDR-30 is a digital/analog hybrid system. The 24 12-bit PCM samples are digital, but each of the 6 drum voices you can play at the same time are processed analog through the CEM 3360 VCA. Not untypical for the rest of the Roland MKS modules from this era.

All the 6 drum voices (kick, snare and 4 different toms) can be triggered from pads through the 6 trigger inputs on the back. Or the voices can be played over MIDI. The 6 voices also have their own individual outputs. There's also a mixed stereo output.

The demo song in the beginning is done with only the DDR-30 providing drums. The hi-hat is not part of the DDR-30, but since you can process the individual drum voices with no less than 16 parameteres each, I just took a snare and tuned it into a hat and overdubbed that part.

The rest of the demo song is Sequential Six-Trak for a LIVE solo while bass, poly synth and arps are coming from the Jupiter-8."

Maneco Labs - Otterley Stereo Reverb

video by NOISEBUG

"This is a demo of the Maneco Labs Otterley Stereo Reverb eurorack module. Its a dual reverb design that can create some epic soundscapes and pitch shifting. More info can be found here -

via Noisebug

"Otterley is a rich dual reverb, but with simple operations.

It includes two engines, reverb one, controlled by just a knob but with rich and atmospheric flavor , and reverb two , a reverse reverb with several associated parameters.

Despite its complexity, operation is quite simple, no menus, no switches, no hidden functions.

Description of controls:

●Reverb 1 :one knob level and size control for first engine, as level increases also does size and modulation complexity for this lush component.

●Reverb 2 : reverse reverb engine blend control , from dry to full wet.

●Feedback : regeneration for Reverb 2 , from zero to almost self oscillation.

●Delay: time and size for reverse component, from almost immediate to dry signal to quasi reverse delay character , for reverb 2

●Grain : density for reverb 2 , from identifiable reverb grains to blurred sound strokes at maximum.

Fun with Arps Vol1: Moog Subsequent 37 & Sequential Prophet Rev2

video by Lost Clouds

"I'm away from my main setup for a little while, so every week for the next few weeks I'll be releasing some old videos I recorded where I'm jamming out over some arps from the Rev2 with the Sub37. This is the first of those videos - very reminiscent of the earlier stuff on my channel I think! Hope you enjoy :)"

Behringer Intros New LmDrum (LinnDrum) Hybrid 8/12-Bit Sampling Drum Machine

A LinnDrum with onboard sampling.

"We love to share with you the progress of our first sampling drum machine. We’re super excited that the unit has passed all audio tests today and much of the user interface development is now also completed. Man, this thing grooves;-) However, this is still a prototype and a long way from production.

Rest assured that our drum machine development team is working overtime to complete this exciting instrument as quickly as possible in order to get it into your drumming hands...

P.S. This is just the beginning and there is so much more in the pipeline. Stay tuned."

Befaco Introduces Morphader CV Controlled Crossfaders

video by Befacosynth

"The core of the module has four CV controlled crossfaders, each with their individual control and a master fader to control them all. The module mixes the four crossfades at its fourth output, thanks to a clever normalization scheme. Each of them can be easily removed from the mix by plugging a cable at its own output, providing a flexible mechanism to have several independat crossfades or a master scene fading. Morphader is a performative tool designed to make multichannel CV/Audio crossfade easy and comfortable. Fading from one quad CV/audio scene to another.

Patch description:
We have two sets of audio sources (8 in total) and two sets of CV sources.

Two Morphaders are used here. One is crossfading audio and the second one is crossfading CVs that control the audio sources."

Befaco Morphader! Building and hanging :)
