V.A.I. 55 Elka Wilgamat / Multivox MX-3000

video upload by Vintage Audio Institute Italia

"Another spin with these twooddbalss: The Elka Wilgamat and Multivox MX-3000.
The Elka Wilgamat is probably a bit familiar to our viewers by now - an Italian auto-accompaniment machine with three sections:

1. Analog drum machine section
2. Bass section with 2 sounds and variations
3. Chord section with 3 sounds

Harmonically controlled by a two-octave keyboard with a fill-in bar on top, it has a great warm sound that's unmistakably mid-1970s to our ears, the drum machine alone sounds great.

The Multivox MX-3000 is a pretty rare Japanese string machine and monophonic synth combo.
A bit similar to the Farfisa Soundmaker or maybe Solina String Synthesizer (the BIG one - not the regular String Ensemble) or the Crumar Composer but with a more complex polyphonic - or rather Divide Down - section.
Lots bells and whistles here.

It basically has three separate sections:

1. A bass synth section with multiple preset sounds and attack, decay and tone controls.

2. A polyphonic section with preset sounds that are modifiable in quite a few ways with a very nice and aggressive filter section, attack/decay, two different choruses, two glide modes and more.

3. Single Oscillator monophonic section. No presets but a few different wave forms, a very nice filter, portamento and the usual mono stuff for great leads, basses and even some space effects.

The Polyphonic filter and choruses are very cool on these, maybe that's what we got it for initially but it's turning in to our desert island machine, there's really a lot going on here, it's a versatile instrument with quite a unique and somewhat rustic sound.

They're famously hard to service due to lack of a good set of schematics.
The build-quality is strangely bad for late 1970s Japanese keyboards so they somehow always break down.

Sequential OB-6 Sound Pack - FM TONES VOLUME 2

video upload by Polydata

"This is the 2nd volume sound pack of 50 patches with sequences for the excellent Dave Smith Instruments / Sequential / Oberheim OB-6 analog synthesizer. All of these patches use VCO 2 as an audio rate modulation source via the X-Mod section. FM on this synth is a big part of what makes it exciting for me and I hope these patches help you see it in a fresh way. Other than the drum and sound effects patches, they are all tuned and transposed to be used with the standard 12 tone scale.

Sounds load into slots 350-399 as default. Everything heard here is totally dry, with no eq or compression.

Link:
polydata.bigcartel.com

Note these patches use the latest firmware with the "Vintage Knob" functionality. Additionally, each analog synth is slightly different, if your patches are sounding a bit out of tune, slightly adjust the "VCO 2" amount in the X-Mod section until it sounds right.

Linear Velocity Jam with sounds only from Novation Supernova 2 synthesizer

video upload by js-sound

"I made this track purely to demonstrate the synth Novation Supernova II , not for the sake of the music itself. Sometimes when I feel like jamming, I can make a track like this one in one day. Sometimes it's better to listen to music while demonstrating a synthesizer than to listen to presets one by one. :-)

My Bandcamp is here https://js-sound.bandcamp.com/releases
Linear Velocity in better Quality is here https://js-sound.bandcamp.com/track/l...

If you have a Supernova 2 and it doesn't work properly, I've already "cured" 10 of these synths. I have already changed chipboard processors, and RAM and DAC and other electronics. I can help you fix bugs in Supernova 2. Write me to this address: fotojs77 at gmail.com"

'The High Road' Patch Video From 1994-95

video upload by ParadisoModular

"This is the earliest synth patch video that I've made. The piece was inspired by thinking about Fripp & Eno style drones - this is where that went. This video shows this actual patch running the the basement studio I had in my townhouse condo at the time - most of it features line-recorded audio, shifting to an actual live camera microphone when I shut everything down at the end. I shot it on a Hi-8 camera that I brought home from the Media Lab for the occasion - it has authentic grain of age here. Several years later, I named this piece 'The High Road' - it has that vibe."

Living on the Edgelands | Electropop

video upload by Mamotreco

"Take a walk right on the edge between civilization and wasteland in this experimental electropop track. An ominous ghost numbers radio voice intones over an increasingly poignant synth music instrumental while the camera threads through the top of an embankment between a highway and a railway.

A Timeline of Roland Juno Synths, 1982 to Today: What's the Difference?

video upload by Reverb

"The Roland Juno was a groundbreaking synthesizer with an instantly recognizable sound. And while original Juno's remain some of the most sought after vintage synths on the market, there have been quite a few variations through the years. In this video, we take a look at all the Juno models Roland has released through the years."
