Modeling (Clavia Nord Drum 3P - Modeling Percussion Synth // Arturia Keystep Pro Sequencer)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"I wanted to dive a little deeper in the synth engine of the Nord Drum 3P drum pad! So I used 4 of its 6 tracks (sequenced by the KeystepPro) to play monophonic synth parts and the last 2 tracks, to play live some drum sounds (kick and snare).

I was quite impressed by the versatility of the Nord Drum and how much it can be an expressive instrument! Hope I'll become a good drummer one day 😅

* Hardware used *
- Clavia Nord Drum 3P : all sounds
- Arturia Keystep Pro : sequencing 4 of the 6 tracks of the Nord Drum 3P"

From the manual:

What’s An FDN Reverb? FDN (Feedback Delay Network) Reverberation is a technique that, as many other digital reverb algorithms, uses delay lines to artificially add a sense of space to a sound. What makes an FDN reverb unique is that each of the delay lines (in the case of “FDN Verb” there are 8), are processed through a feedback matrix. In other words, the outputs from one delay line get scaled, and sent back to the inputs of the other delay lines. This, with a combination of internal filtering, and modulation common to other reverb algorithms quickly creates the dense reflective sounds that make up a good sounding reverb.

Ambient Hydrasynth Explorer // Tefty & Meems

video upload by Tefty & Meems

"Our first ambient jam with the @ASM Ashun Sound Machines Hydrasynth Explorer! Strictly used presets from the 'ambient' and 'arp' categories and tweaked from there. Everything was tracked to Ableton one at a time. Meems improvised vocals at the end. We've been posting a fair bit of ambient tracks recently, but we have a synthwave album in the works! Going to be done soooooon. Excited to share when the tracks are finished."
