Sonic Projects OP-X Pro-II - Sound Bank '79

video upload by Polydata

"Drawing from the earliest days of polyphonic synthesizers, Sound Bank ‘79 for the Sonic Projects OP-X Pro-II plug-in finds its inspiration in synthesizer music found in documentaries and library music from the late 70’s and early 80’s.

A bank comprising 30 patches for instant inspiration. The goal was to squeeze as much vintage analog juice out of this plug-in as possible, primarily working within the constraints of the original Oberheim OB-X analog poly synth. This plug-in sounds SO GOOD. There are some awesome plug-ins out there that are each great in their own way... this one really has a remarkable authenticity and realness to the sound that is incredible.

Sound Bank '79 is a series of vintage tones for different synths and plug-ins, so check out my other releases. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing.

Velocity - From scratch 🌠 (Waldorf M + Timeline // Moog Minitaur + H9 // Roland TR6S // Streichfett)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"Another track built from scratch this time with a retro / new wave 80s vibe 😉 recorded in one shot. In the intro, you are hearing the live/raw sound recorded by the camera just to get that retro feel! 😊

Everything was sequenced by the Arturia Keystep Pro.

The chimes sounds are from the Waldorf M, hybrid analog/digital synth (I used its MULTI mode with 3 layers, where velocity has been used to switch between the 3 sounds).

The bass is being played by the Moog Minitaur through the Eventide H9 (Chorus, adding stereo width).

The drums sounds are coming from the Roland TR-6S (with my favorite VINYL SIM effect on its master bus 🤩).

And finally the LEAD/PADS are coming from the Waldorf Streichfett digital string synth.

* Hardware used *

- CHIMES : Waldorf M + Strymon Timeline (delay)
- BASS : Moog Minitaur +Julianna Eventide H9 (chorus)
- DRUMS : Roland TR-6S
- LEAD/PADS : Waldorf Streichfett
- All synth & drum parts sequenced by the Arturia Keystep Pro"

New flightofharmony Facehugger Alpha R02 Demos

video upload by flightofharmony

The Facehugger Kickstarter runs until April 22nd - please help make the Facehugger a reality!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

Playlist:
1. Facehugger Alpha R02 Trigger & Gate demonstration

Demonstrating the updated trigger and gate function of the Facehugger function generator.

The Facehugger trigger input now accepts both trigger and gate signals, converting gates to triggers as well as continuing to cycle as long as the gate is present. The Facehugger cycle will also reset if it receives another trigger while running.

2. Facehugger Alpha R02 Scale & Root function comparison demonstration

Comparing Facehugger function generator's voltage-controlled Scale and Root functions.

3. Facehugger Alpha R02 Glide function demonstration

Demonstrating the updated Glide function of the Facehugger function generator.

The Glide or portamento function smooths the transition between stages. Facehugger has two types of Glide: logarithmic and linear. In this video, the logarithmic glide is tuned for longer sequences, while the linear glide is tuned for quicker sequences like VCA envelopes.

4. Facehugger Alpha R02 Root Demonstration

Demonstrating the Root function of the Facehugger function generator.

Root shifts the root or base note of the pattern up or down.

5. Facehugger Alpha R02 Scale Demonstration

Demonstrating the new Scale function of the Facehugger function generator. Scale allows you to scale the output in magnitude, from +1V/±1V to +10V/±10V.

6. Facehugger Alpha R02 Length Demonstration

Demonstrating the Length function of the Facehugger function generator.

Length selects how long the pattern is, from 1 to 8 steps.

The Facehugger Kickstarter runs until April 22nd - please help make the Facehugger a reality!

DSP56300 Emulator - Virus TI OsTIrus Demo - Classic 90s/2000s Trance recreations

video upload by Numero Uno

"The Virus TI, a legendary virtual analog synthesizer. It was powered by two specialized audio processors and changed how hardware synthesizers could integrate with an increasingly computer driven environment for electronic music.

A decade later from its release, advancements in processing power have made it possible to fully emulate the chips at the heart of this hardware synthesizer. With this effort, the vision of merging the richness of sound from purpose built music hardware directly into a modern DAW has been realized.

Demonstrated in this video is a true 100% emulation of the sound engine which can be run in real time on a modern computer.
With this, nearly all limitations of hardware and control software of the original unit have been overcome.

* Perfect recreation of the Virus TI sound engine by emulating the DSP code on a low level
* The best integrated experience including automation, state preservation and more
* 16 part Multi Mode / Sequencer Mode per instance, with multiple instances possible if you need more voices
* 6 individual stereo outputs in the DAW, 3x "Analog" and 3x "USB", all usable at the same time
* Improved MIDI timing

Three Versio Delays - Melotus, Yester, Imitor

video upload by John Schussler

"The Yester Versio arrived the other day, so I wanted to compare it to the other Noise Engineering delay lines I have handy: Melotus Versio (which is actually a granular sampler, but is easily used as a delay), and Imitor Versio, which is a delay with an unusual dose of attitude.

No commentary, just listening.
