Keystep Pro, with Korg Volca Bass and Keys, Akai tomcat fun with visuals jam for Jamuary 31 2022


video upload by Expanding Sound

"Well, I was able to accomplish my goal and hit every single day of the month. I hope you enjoyed some of these as I had a great time working on them. Todays jam was something different I had been wanting to try. Its very simple, and way more about the visuals. I liked the idea of having the the glitch effects play at the same time as Im jamming, so I shot them to my projector and filmed the silhouette. I need to fool around with getting my idea for the effect perfect but I liked how it came out. In my mind I was thinking of the old Earth Wind and Fire videos with the trails everywhere they moved. I always loved those and all kinds of trippy effects really. They're fun. Hope you enjoyed this as well as my Jamuary feed. Back to our regularly scheduled programming. Which isn't all that different ha ha :)"

Modular / Eurorack Music - Bubble


video upload by Jeanie

"Performance setup : Buchla 200e system + Buchla Music Easel + Make Noise system + Korg SQ-1 (two) + Strymon blueSky"

"Mare lunaris" a modular composition by GATTOBUS


video upload by gattobus

"Headphones or a good pair of speakers recommended.
This is a live recording of me playing withy my modular.
I'm playing over two overlapping sequences, each with different measures.
This patch is quite simple, just a DPO drone, Bresnso going into a stereo filter (Popple) with Falistri used as double-envelope. Everything was driven by Fraptools Usta sequencer. Some randomness here and there using Fraptools Sapèl."

Insta Chord Demo & Review


video upload by musictrackjp

This should brighten your morning. This appears to be the first post to feature the Insta Chord hardware instrument. I'm not finding any additional info on it online. If you know feel free to leave a comment or reach out. Note there is also an InstaChord MIDI Processing Plugin "that helps you play chords and chord progressions faster and easier." I don't believe they are related.

MicroAddict: Synths & Microbes


video upload by MicroAddict

This one is in via supporting member SynthAddict who had the following to say:

"I started a new microscope life channel that will feature original synth music, mostly from modular to add to the mood.

My launch video today features some ambient space music from a Korg Wavestation A/D for all parts, made on an RC-505 looper (DAWless). For now it’s interesting visuals with synth music.

One of my upcoming videos will feature microbes found on synths and drum machines: cables, keys, pads, buttons, and strips... and chairs/floors. Should be fun 😀 it might get folks to dust and clean the studio more often."

And: "The critters here came from a local park and a pond.
The tardigrade came from dry moss and I brought him out of stasis by oaking the moss.
The spider was on the moss before I soaked it (extra bonus).

Tardigrades can survive very harsh conditions and 'resurrect'.
NASA even took them into space and they survived!"

Sacred 🧙‍♀️ (Dreadbox Nymphes) - Jamuary2022


video upload by 2-Minute Warning

Update: Re-upload with better audio (the previous version had a lower volume -10 dB)

"The challenge with this one was to use the Dreadbox - Nymphes, 4-voice analog polyphonic synth, as only instrument for the whole track, without any external effects! (only some EQ/comp for mixing purposes).
I'm not a big fan of the Nymphes' internal reverb, but had to use it for this track.
As I also wanted to have a kind of delay effect on the SEQ track (heard on the left speaker), I had to do it manually by re-recording a 2nd SEQ track (heard on the right speaker) after having shifted the MIDI notes of the first SEQ track 😅

I initially composed this track with the Conductive Labs - NDLR sequencer. I recorded its MIDI output in my DAW and later did some editing, adding some pitch bends, notes for transitions, etc.

I was quite surprised of how this little synth can be so versatile and sound fat! (There's been a lot of talk about its user interface, and indeed, I would have preferred either a small screen or a larger surface too!)"
