Short Size Spring Tank Electro Jams - Reverb Driver Version 2 [Demo 02]


video upload by gstormelectro

"Audio + Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2023

Today I made a couple of demo songs featuring my Spring Tank Reverb Driver version 2. The module has been optimized for Ruby Tube 2EB2C1B Short size tank by changing R8 to 3K value resistor. I'm quite taken with this tank, it's nice and drippy. I will be offering some module/short-tank optimized combos for sale in my reverb store - see link below.

0:00 60 BPM Dub | Spring Tank on Drumbrute Impact Snare
1:56 90 BPM | Spring Tank on the 101-VCO/VCF
Take note in this second jam I am using CV control over the Spring Tank wet/dry mix using a Sample-and-hold with portamento.

Check my Reverb store for the combo Spring Tank Reverb Driver and the Ruby Tubes short tank.

WESTON PRO2021 Monophonic Synthesizer - SC Pro One Clone

via this auction

"This is a faithful recreation of the classic Pro One analog synthesizer circuit though with some serious construction upgrades. This keyboard is simply a tank of an instrument. Even the pitch and mod wheels are made of solid anodized aluminum.
It's loaded with the popular MTG TURBO CPU upgrade that allows 5-pin midi in, out & thru.
The oscillators use the famous Curtis CEM3340 rev G chips. It's as true to the Pro One circuit as it gets - but of course with modern parts which grants improved stability.
The keybed is a 37 key FATAR TP/9S (semi-weighted) with no aftertouch strip.
The chassis is powder coated aluminum with machine milled cherry wood end cheeks that I had treated with tung oil and finished with a bee-wax based wood polish."

I truly wish I had more of these or a multi channel WIDI setup as these are awesome! I also use a CME WIDI between my AZ-1 Keytar and Kawai SX240 making my Keytar completely cordless, no wires! A truly great product!"

Tommy Tranq’s Novation Circuit 64 Presets Sound Library


video upload by Tommy Tranq

"This is a demo video of a custom 64 sound patch library for Novation Circuit by Tommy Tranq
Tommy Tranq is an electronic musician
Primarily making techno
So the patches are made with techno in mind but are equally suited for all types of electronic music
The audio for this video has been declicked and normalized in iZotope RX

These patches are available as a sysex download for $5 from Gumroad
tommytranq.gumroad.com/l/PPZSY

There are 32 basses in the first bank and 32 accompanying, higher synths in the second bank
The basses on each pad in bank one were designed
Corresponding with the synths on the same pad in bank two but obviously sounds can be mixed and matched

The macros are mostly:
1 envelope mod 3 filter cutoff 5 filter mod env 7 distortion
2 white noise 4 resonance 6 (very variable) 8 chorus

This is not 100% exact from patch to patch
The most common deviation is distortion (7) becoming chorus while chorus under it (8) becomes a pitch envelope or portamento
However
Overall you can call up a patch and have a reasonable idea of what a sound's macros are going to do
Some of the macros utilize the third envelope which has a delay time setting
So some macros will only make sense on longer notes as the delay is sometimes quite long

Velocity is often used as a modifier and not usually used to control volume
Be sure to step sequence and mindfully program velocity for expressive synth patterns"
