Lots of original presets from the 80's that made hit history (Michael Jackson, Queen, Whitney Housten and 1000's more). Each cartridge with 64 sounds organized in 2 banks.

Slight signs of use from insertion into the instrument's cartridge slot.

OB-Xa Eurorack filter comparison


video upload by John Schussler

"This is 20 minutes of me bouncing back and forth between two Oberheim OB-Xa style eurorack filters, trying to hear the differences between them. If you're not deeply interested in OB-Xa filters, you're probably better off moving along.

Still here? Ok. So, these two filters are close but not identical to the original VCF in the Oberheim OB-Xa. They have some improvements here and there, but for the most part are true to the original sound of the Oberheim. (I don't have an OB-Xa, so whether they're exactly the same or not I have no idea.)

As I go through I'm going to first try and get them as identical as possible, then listen to their less identical aspects.

In both cases I'm sticking to the 'standard' model, not the state variable option.

Sorry for the crackles here and there, my interface seems unhappy. They don't get in the way, they're just occasionally irritating."

video upload by lucafrancinimusic

"This is a sort of lazy tutorial with notes for using Moog Mother-32 internal sequencer with an external sequence, while butchering Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells.
The second voice here is Mutable Instruments Rings, sequenced by Ornament & Crime."

7 Minutes Alone with a 0-Coast in a Kansas City Hotel at Midnight (Make Noise Eurorack Drone)


video upload by Autotross

"The year was 2021. I'd just acquired the Make Noise 0-Coast the day before at Knobcon, and this was my first chance to get to know it. Alone, under the covers with just a few patch cables and my handy Zoom recorder, I droned.

Reverb and B-roll added later.

Jordan Rudess plays the KW-8000 & Sorcerer Modern Virtual Synthesizers from Syntronik 2


video upload by ikmultimedia

"Watch Jordan Rudess plays one of the classic synths of Syntronik 2 - the KW-8000. The KW8000 delivers the late ‘80s sound of the digital-analog hybrid Korg DW-8000. The DW-8000 used digital oscillators with short samples of 16 different waveforms, then into an analog low-pass filter. The result is a remarkably warm sounding instrument whose timbres often sound more analog than digital."

Jordan Rudess plays the Sorcerer modern virtual synthesizer from Syntronik 2


"Watch Jordan Rudess plays one of the classic synths of Syntronik 2 - the Sorcerer. The Sorcerer offers the distinctive timbres of the legendary Moog source, two fat analog oscillators through the legendary Moog 24 dB per octave transistor ladder filter. In many ways, the Source was a programmable Minimoog capable of generating massive basses and superior leads."
