Omx-27 now has a Grids mode

video upload by Avrilcadabra

"The little OMX-27 midi keyboard now has a port of Mutable instrument Grids.

The OMX-27 is a diy mechanical midi keyboard (sometimes you can request to have one prebuilt)

It's a chip shortage, so might be in stock, might not

Oberheim OB-X8 - Creative Sound Design Synth of Dreams

Oberheim OB-X8 Sounds STUNNING! video upload by JimDaneker

"My first real spin on the new Oberheim OB-X8. I wanted to just twist knobs and see where it took me, and as a huge Oberheim fan, I have to say I was incredibly impressed. Any of my skepticism about resurrecting the OB series was happily unfounded. This thing is TOTALLY worthy of the name, and every bit a real OB.

Reverb is from my all-time favorite, the GFI Specular Tempus, which has a remarkable ability to be 'wet' while not getting in the way. No other processing was used; you're hearing the dry synth with the reverb return at about 80%. If you'd like both dry & wet tracks as isolated WAV files, let me know! You can reach me via my website below.

Table of contents:

00:00 - Fifth Swell
03:15 - Seismic Bass
05:30 - String Masheen - playing with various filters
08:08 -Tangerine State - arpeggiator, filter resonance
10:35 - Rippler - LFO experiments
12:09 - Notta Delay - more arpeggiator goodness
14:07 - Rossum8or - haunted Wurlitzer vibes?
15:50 - StrawBent - an analog benediction of sorts"

Sequential Pro 3 First Impression (No Talking)

video upload by JimDaneker

"An unedited improv with the very first patch on the Sequential Pro 3 SE. I wasn't familiar with this synth yet and just wanted to get an idea of the 3 filter models, so that's really all I focused on for this video - hence the sloppy playing. You can definitely tell it's got proper VCOs and gorgeous analogue filters - it's a monster synth!

The background arp stuff is from a Sequential Rev2 through a GFI Specular Tempus reverb; piano is from the BackStage Pass library (see link below), and the percussion was programmed with various libraries.

The Pro 3 itself was recorded live straight to Logic, through the Logic stereo delay and a little bit of GFI Specular Tempus reverb."

Prophet Rev2 vs Prophet 5 - Quick Comparison

video upload by JimDaneker

"Just a super-quick, on-the-fly comparison showing the tonal differences between the Prophet Rev2 and Prophet 5. Also highlights the dual-layered "binaural" stereo capability of the Rev2, vs. the Prophet 5, which is mono."

Roland JX-10 with Retroaktiv MPG-70

video upload by JimDaneker

"5 minute deep dive into one of the best analog synths ever made: the Roland JX-10, controlled by the Retroaktiv MPG-70 Programmer. The MPG-70 is a brilliant piece of gear in that it completely opens up the JX-10, bringing every parameter to a physical control surface. It even lets you control both upper and lower tones simultaneously - something no other controller can do. The icing on the cake is that it can control ANY synth - hardware or software, using standard MIDI CCs!

My JX-10 has the optional Vecoven ROM, which is a must-have to bring this glorious synth into the 21st century and allow it to be controlled via MIDI CCs."
