The Sound of Kenny G Songbird with Oberheim OB-Xa, Emulator II, Rhodes

"(c)2007-22 by RetroSound
supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi

❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: retrosound.creator-spring.com

One of my favorite songs from the mid 80s. So moody.
Kenny G - Songbird from the year 1986
Produced by Preston Glass


I used here the Oberheim OB-Xa for all synth pads and string parts like in the original song. And I used the Yamaha Reface CP for the Rhodes sound and the arpeggio. The soprane sax is made with the Emulator II sampler. Sure not so dynamic like a real sax.

From nothing to musique concrète with Isla Instruments S2400

video upload by MrMakingsound

Description française ci-dessous.

"Look mum, no sequencer !

Isla Instruments S2400 is a modern sampler inspired by E-MU SP-1200.
Yes, you can create vintage, lofi and dirty Hiphop/House/Techno with it, but you can also compose modern stuff with neat sound quality. Before the review (i'm still working on it), i wanted to show how to perform a musique concrète-ish track without using the sequencer. Nothing is written before, all the sounds are performed live with pads, faders and filters.

S2400 only, with une pincée de OTO Machine BAM at the end, because there is no reverb in the actual firmware. But i hope it will change (This is a message for Brad and Vlad ^_^).

How it works :

Instead of using discrete and short sounds on each track, i like to use very long recording as a library of sounds, textures and ambiances. With the faders help, i can change playhead position, volume and pitch for each track. Pads are used to trigger and re-trigger sounds, filters to make room for frequencies.

As files bigger than 64MB can't be loaded in the S2400 editor, changing playhead position needs to be done blind, but that's part of the fun. You never know what you will trigger next, you need to improvise, and each performance is unique."

video upload by MrMakingsound

"The Rozzbox One V2 is a poly synth created by Kilian Leonhardt (LL Electronics).
Released in 2008, only a few were made, and one year later, Kilian stopped the production to get back to his studies.

Ahead of its time, between digital and analog, this synth is perfect for making drones and pads.

No FX, only Rozzbox.

Not your typical poly synth :
- 5x voices polyphonic synthesizer
- 4x digital oscillators with 20 waveforms
- Digital and analog filters on each voice + one tube filter.
- FM mode with 7 algorithms
- Ring modulator
- Audio input
- 4 completely independent sequencer lines per voice, each with its own running mode and synchronization settings
- Complex 4-point modulation matrix with 16 sources and 16 destinations
- Complex trigger matrix with unlimited connection count, for interconnection of LFOs, sequencers, envelope triggers, MIDI clock,
- The switchable “Hacker” adds artificial analog aliasing (tunable)
- Bit reduction / Sample rate reduction
- Full MIDI control of every parameter

Includes 3 self-resonant Filter-Types:
- Digital high pass/low pass filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
- Analog low pass ladder filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
- Completely tube-driven analog low pass filter with resonance and 12B/octave (2 filter poles)"

"A fully expanded and upgraded Quasimidi 309, the vintage groovebox/synthesizer specifically designed for techno productions. The machine is in astonishing cosmetic and working conditions and has been recently checked by a professional technician. Ultra-safe packing and shipping insurance included in the shipping costs.

The Quasimidi 309 is and will remain a cult machine for any techno producer. A sturdy German made groovebox equipped with top quality drum sounds, an amazing synth section, an easy to use sequencer and a great interface plenty of knobs to instantly mangle the sounds. This unit implements:

Drum Expansion
Synth Expansion
Audio Expansion
Latest OS Upgrade (3.0)
Original Adapter
Original Manual

Synth Expansion adds 37 new oscillator waveforms (offering up to four oscillators each), two new filter algorithms (12dB low‑pass and 12dB high‑pass), plus sequence‑syncable LFOs. Additionally, since the audio expansion is also installed, the machine features two extra bass/lead synths. These synths can be played on their own MIDI channels, from an external keyboard or sequencer, or set up to double the main bass/lead synth.

Drum Expansion adds an impressive array of extra waveforms and samples: 14 Kicks, 11 Snares, 8 Hi‑hats and 127 Percussions. There are also now 20 instead of 10 percussion kits. This expansion also doubles the number of percussion kits (20 instead of 10) and memory locations (128 instead of 64) and adds also 38 new preset Patterns.

Audio Expansion adds a pair of audio inputs and an extra pair of assignable outputs. Outputs 3 and 4 can be used to send any 309 sounds (or the treated audio ins) to a mixer for external processing and you can also trigger the inputs from any of the drum machine/sequencer sections, for instant gated effects."
