Elektron Octatrack & Analog Four MK1 Synth Disco In Progress

video upload by Mamotreco

"Using the Elektron Octatrack and Analog Four to flip some oldschool disco vibes with spacey analog synth sounds and vintage drum machine samples. The Octatrack carries the main sample loop as well as drum/percussion one-hit samples. The Analog Four synth is on melodic duties with its four tracks playing different sounds.

ROLAND JD-08 // Demo

video upload by Starsky Carr

"A demo of the lovely little Roland Boutique JD-08, based on the legendary 90's classic JD800. I always wanted a JD800 - now I've got one and still got space in the studio!"

"I believe I am up to 54 synths purchased and 34 sold in the last year. I keep saying I'm done but......

- All sound demo segments are played with absolutely no plans for the patches I am going to use or what I am going to play. I'm just winging it. Obviously.

- All audio is recorded dry, straight from the synths. Any effects you hear are internal effects built into that synth.

- All synths and everything else were purchased at regular prices. I have never been given a demo model or even loaned something by any company. I bought all this stuff.

- No, I'm not rich. The buying spree started with selling some synths I already had. Then when I wanted more stuff, I sold off more collectibles I already owned. The synths I decided not to keep then funded more synth purchases. I run a record label by myself and also work a full-time normal job. I worked my ass off for all this stuff.

- Yes, I know I have the Imovie skills of the average 8-year-old. I've never even owned a smart phone.

- This project has been really fun and taught me that the most sought after "classics" are not automatically for everyone. It also taught me that youtube synth demos and comparisons are not the final word. Nothing beats sitting down with an instrument and playing it.
