System 55 - Emulating a Voltage Controlled Filter

video upload by O.Z. Hall

"The System 55 contains only a single 904A Voltage Controlled Lowpass Filter. So, what do you do to create a second voice? This video examines 4 possible options. In the course of the discussion we create a Flutelike voice and a Clarinetlike voice.
Can you think of any other options than the four I mention?

"Something to wake up to. Testing out the overhead with a pre-production Buchla Music Easel and lovely Meris LVX delay pedal. Getting ready to shoot some tutorials, but playtime gets in the way!"

"Finding the music in a new granular synth, Granular III in Ableton Live 12. I created several presets for this synth and chose two that played well together to create this ambient piece."

Long-lost Moog synthesizer finally makes it to the stage

video upload by Cornell University

"A piece of synthesizer history has been given an unexpected second life and is now a part of Cornell’s instrument collection, after eight months of meticulous and often confounding work by a group of synthesizer builders.

The rebuilt and rewired instrument, designed by theorist David Rothenberg and built by renowned synthesizer pioneer Robert Moog, Ph.D. ’65, is housed in Lincoln Hall and graduate student composers will begin experimenting with its unique tonal range next semester."
