Anthony Baldino - Qu - Bit Artist Spotlight

video upload by Qu - Bit

"We start our Artist Spotlight series off with none other than Anthony Baldino.
Anthony has been a member of the Qu-Fam for a long time, and has been innovating in sound design for even longer. In this intimate interview, Anthony takes us back to the beginning, talks Qu-Bit modules and workflows, and then treats us to a deep and varied performance.

BIO:
Born and raised in New York, Anthony Baldino is a composer and sound designer based in LA whose work spans an enormous range of production avenues. The likelihood that you haven't heard his work is nearly impossible with music and sound design in too many trailer campaigns to list. With Prometheus, Interstellar, Ex-Machina, Star Wars: Rogue One and Avengers: Infinity War just to name a few.

From there his work ventures to the opposite pole of production with custom sound design based compositions for Dolby Labs mixed in Atmos, beautifully glitched out remixes and continues on to mind bending modular synthesizer performances.

Fairfield Circuitry Roger That - probing for sounds on synth (no talk)

video upload by Richard DeHove

"Not many pedals are designed to be played. Usually you just dial in a sound and then play or tweak something else. The Fairfield Circuitry 'Roger That' wants to be tweaked. Its controls can be very sensitive for something so brutal. Here I don't try to give a "showcase" of sound but more a feeling of what it's like to tweak the pedal. Sometimes tiny movements give drastic changes, other times you sweep a knob and nothing much happens. I was initially very excited for the CV input but it often seemed to have little effect. OTOH an external LFO (or perhaps Schlappi Engineering's similarly conceived Interstellar Radio) would probably be a much better CV source.

There's no nice stuff here, it's all grinding tones and noise and it gets worse (better?) as it goes along until it ends with a Throbbing Gristle style tribute. But I like the Roger That. It's hardcore distortion generated in a new way and without the high noisefloor which usually comes with traditional distortion. Good raw material for sampling and looping. Roger That was bought by me with my own money at full price. Fairfield did include a handwritten postcard though so that was nice.

And by the way, you know the (British) slang meaning of "Roger That" don't you? :D

LoFi Future - VGA FX Experimenter - Desktop VGA to RCA adapter

video upload by LoFiFuture

"The first batch of 30 will be ready to ship mid march, available to pre-order here: https://lofifuturestore.square.site/p...

This demo features the prototype PCBs of the VGA FX EXPERIMENTER (with the misspelling, oops!) this has been fixed for the production PCBs.

The VGA FX EXPERIMENTER is a desktop utility module that allows you to process HD VGA signals (or HDMI with some cheap converters) through your existing standard definition composite analog glitch processors.

Each channel features:

- level control

-momentary button that maxes out the level with just a press (great performance tool)

- a FX bypass switch (to bypass the FX box you have connected to that channel)

- a link button (these can link any of the RGB channels together to create interesting colour effects)

- a CV input that responds to positive CV or gate inputs to lower or mute that channel (the higher the CV signal, the lower the channel level)

Its a great way to experiment with analog HD video, just grab a couple of VGA / HDMI converter boxes and you can process HDMI video as analog signals and then convert them back to HDMI for convenience.

No need for a TBC what so ever! The sync signals on VGA are isolated on their own wires and not effected by this device at all. You can glitch as heavy as you want and it will come out as a valid signal. A game changer for VJs and live glitch artists who dont want to lug around a big video mixer, TBC or even a CRT and a Camera. All of which I have lugged in an out of taxis enough to yearn for a better solution!"

"Swimming In Copper" - (Eventide Misha Adventures)

video upload by Electronisounds Audio

"I got the urge to make something with a really dramatic, melodic lead line - so I paired up the Eventide Misha sequencer with the Modbap Modular Osiris oscillator, the Eventide H90 pedal, and The Godfather multi-channel audio processor from Enjoy Electronics to get there! WOOT! Really happy with how this one came out - the Polyend Play is a fantastic sequencer and Groovebox that helped me sequence and arrange everything! All Sounds from the Play are from my sound bank, "The Sandbox".

Recording Date: 02/02/2023
Tempo: 104bpm
Key: ummmmm...... things got a little grey on that - lol"

One of my favorite 80s songs
Christopher Cross - Sailing (1980)
'Sailing takes me away to where I’ve always heard it could be. Just a dream and the wind to carry me'

I used here the Oberheim OB-X for the main theme sound (like in the original song) and the string pad sound And I used the Yamaha DX7 II for the guitar sound.
Piano: Yamaha Reface CP played with the Oberheim Xk
Bass Synth: Moog The Source

The Oberheim OB-X Synthesizer is one of the big legendary synths in music history. Different in sound to all later OB synths like OB-Xa, OB-8 or the new OB-X8. Here can you find the full OB-X playlist with a lot single sound demos, synth comparisions and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

The OB-X playlist:"

MiniFreak and Synthi AKS - Which is the Freakiest? A Comparison of Two Fantastic Synthesizers

video upload by LeSynth

"My Arturia MiniFreak and EMS' 1973 Synthi AKS are synths that can sound really freaky, but which has the most freak? This video might leave you thinking that both can lay down some pretty wild sounds! Everything you hear, save the drums, comes from the MiniFreak and the Synthi.
