RYK VectorWave New Firmware. Multiple Amp Envelopes


video upload by UncertainMusicCorps

"A very speedy if rough demo of the most recent firmware beta for the RYK VectorWave.

Each of the 4 voice banks now has a dedicated ADSR, assigned to control the voice amplitude. So the module is now truly 4 voice multitimbral when in multi mode.

The same envelope can also be assigned to any of the other destinations available in the modulation slots at the same time.

So here, I’ve quickly set up SIG to provide pitch and gates x3 to drive 3 voices on the expanded VectorWave running the new firmware set up in a way that ( hopefully) makes it clear that each voice has a different amplitude contour going on.

This was set up literally within 10 minutes of updating the firmware so it’s not very sophisticated. But I just wanted to demo what a difference this makes to what was already a very powerful module. I’m sure I’ll be making more considered use of this combo later…."

Moog Subharmonicon Granular Ambient Bells with Soma Cosmos and Linnstrument


video upload by riotbell

"This is a video featuring the Subharmonicon being controlled via midi by the Linnstrument. One of my favorite things about the Subharmonicon is the way oscillators can mix to provide some very rich bell and chime like timbres.

The Soma Cosmos is providing granulated repeats that slowly evolve into a droning pad over the course of the video.

Forgive my awkward reach, on the Linnstrument, I had trouble setting up an overhead camera and had to pace about to reach things.

Thanks for listening!"

The Super Nintendo Synthesizer with MIDI


video upload by MrCaliforniaD

"I built this custom Super Nintendo MIDI synthesizer using a real Super Nintendo (SNS-001) and a Super Midi Pak cartridge.

The Super Midi Pak cartridge is an incredibly well developped product that lets you control a Super Nintendo sound card via a MIDI I/O cartridge. It's rare that such a product is released to the public in such a stable and complete state.

The cartridge is available for purchase (www.supermidipak.com/), but there's a long waiting list for it.

The challenge for this project was to fit everything in a 1U rackmount enclosure. One of the things that had to be modified was the cartridge port angle, so that it sits parallel to the board instead of perpendicular.

The pitch adjustement knob uses a LTC1799 Precision Oscillator instead of the original crystal assigned to the audio chips. Credit for this mod goes to Sam from Look Mum No Computer. Go check out his channel if you haven't already.

This project is a one-off, and I don't intend to build more of them. Sorry!"

Performance: 'Mini Mod' - a 2016 track performed in real-time (analogue melodic eurorack modular)


video upload by AJH Synth Official

"A short real-time performance of a track I originally recorded in 2016, and was my first ever work with the AJH Synth Mini Mod system. The original version was overdubbed, layering a full 3-VCO & Ladder filter system 3 times to provide all of the synth voices. Here it is performed 'live' with all voices occurring simultaneously, but voiced slightly differently - for example, in the original I used just the standard Minimoog style voice configuration to achieve a vocal/choir-like sound, whereas here I used the much more effective combination of the Wave Swarm and Fixed Filter Bank 914, and even the Entropic Doom to provide an additional 'voice' to the all-analogue Mini-choir! No samples were used in this recording.

I also use the SEM--based Gemini 2412 VCF to process a drone sound, with both of it's filters used in Dual mode. It's audio signal is just 1 VCO and some white noise mixed in the Ring SM, which also provides to sub-octaves using it's built-in sub bass generators.

The Arturia Keystep Pro was used as the sequencer - the mod controller to affect the filter frequency of the Gemini, 3 sequencer tracks to control the pitch of the choir oscillators independently, as a kind of faux polyphonic workaround, and finally the fourth track to control the main 3-VCO melodic voice/sequence.

The original track can be found here: https://tomorrowthecure.bandcamp.com/..."

"Synthesizer Podcast - With Special Guest - Marcus Ryle - Episode 157 @ 6pm UK (1pm EST) October 2nd.

Marcus Ryle

Having originally worked for Oberheim in the early 80’s and being Instrumental in the design and development of some classic Oberheim Synths, Marcus Ryle is no stranger to the world of Synthesizers and Electronic Music Equipment. He later went on to co-found “Fast-Forward Designs” who were responsible for some really ground-breaking technology with Alexis, such as ADAT Multi-Track Recorder, Quadra Synth and Effects. Marcus also co-founded Line 6, which developed a whole range of DSP Products for Guitarists, especially the POD range, which were extremely successful and graced many Stages and Studies alike.

Of course, Marcus is very accomplished Synth Player, Sound Designer and Session Musician with a Studio complete with some of the very best Classic Oberheim Synthesizers. Now, we have the honor of chatting to him about the latest Oberheim Product, taking the very best of the OB range into the fantastic OB-X8. We’ll be finding out about his history with Oberheim and others, his Music and of course the OB-X8 Project and beyond…

Randomized Melodies on the Novation Circuit Tracks


video upload by Jake Wagner

"Synthesizer jam featuring the Novation Circuit Tracks and the Korg Volca Keys.
I really played around with righting bass and lead lines randomly. Either using the random function to generate lines or as inspiration."

Microfreak, Circuit Tracks, Korg Volca Synth Jam


"Another synthesizer Jam! the mix on this one is a little rough, but I really like the idea and glad I got to use a volca again!"
