Pittsburgh Modular Taiga Keys - 3 Oscillator Movement


video upload by Molten Music Technology

"A simple sequencing of the Taiga Keys' three oscillators to explore some of the sound shaping, filter and dynamics. The sequencing is provided by the Seb Songs PolySEQ, and the reverb from Erica Synths Black Stereo Reverb which both fit neatly inside the expansion bay. Adding Cassette Saturation and Cascade Delay we have the Hologram Chroma Console. It gives it some nice wobble and bite."

Introducing Taiga Keyboard Expandable Analog Synthesizer


video upload by Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers



"Taiga is a complete, modern, modular instrument that allows us to explore beyond the boundaries of a traditional analog synthesizer. The sound of Taiga can be attributed to three uniquely Pittsburgh innovations. A trio of huge analog oscillators, the unmistakably smooth sound of the Pittsburgh Filter, and the warmth of our Dynamics Controller. These enable us to not only create sounds that we would traditionally expect from an analog monosynth, but to also explore new sonic textures and performance possibilities.

Unique To Taiga Keyboard

Taiga Keyboard’s larger format provides the room for a few unique features. Most obvious is a full size 37 key premium keybed with velocity and aftertouch. The dedicated pitch and modulation wheels offer instant access to a unique set of modulation tools including manual control, clock sync’d LFO, envelope, and random source. 1/4 inch left and right output jacks, and full sized MIDI in and MIDI out DIN jacks are available on the rear of the instrument. The larger format also allows Taiga Keyboard to utilize larger, more spread out knobs and a second analog LFO.

Taiga Keyboard also includes a first-of-its-kind, 24hp Eurorack format modular expansion bay. The fully modular signal path of Taiga means modules can be inserted into any point of the signal path. Install a 4th or 5th oscillator into the expansion bay and create truly monster sounds. Additional filters allow for an expanded sonic palette. Add a sampler, sequencer, complex digital effects, or even a Maths. The integrated Eurorack expansion bay allows Taiga Keyboard to be customized to meet the unique needs of any artist."

EMS VCS3 The Putney Analog Modular Synthesizer w/ DK 1 Keyboard SN 1098 & 2118

via this auction

"This listing is for an EMS VCS3 The Putney Analog Modular Synthesizer w/ Original DK 1 Keyboard. Important to note about this synth, it does not have master tune knob like many synths made after. There are three parameters the user needs to juggle to property tune this synth. The first is the frequency knob of the oscillators, 2nd is "Input Channel 1" knob and finally, the "Frequency" knob on the DK1 keyboard. Even with everything dialed in nicely, sometimes the higher or lower notes on the keyboard will be slightly out of tune. Adding or removing patch pins will raise or lower the voltages for all three of these parameters and will throw the synth out of tune. This is a historic synthesizer without the "quality of life" upgrades of analog synthesizers made after."

3/3/24 Metasonix R-54, R-52, R-51 + Moog DFAM & Subharmonicon + Doepfer + Lexicon PCM 70


video upload by Cfpp0

"Similar patch and settings as in the other day-lit 3/3/24 video, but stopping and starting the DFAM at different steps to latch onto different pitches. Moog Subharmonicon is running through Metasonix R-52. Moog DFAM is running through Metasonix R-54 & R-51. Moog and Doepfer provide the modulation. Lexicon PCM 70 is set to Gated Plate reverb off the Mackie Onyx 1640."

Dreadbox Erebus V3 Berlin School, Dark Ambient

"First contact with the V3. Definitely not as immediately compelling as my Erebus Reissue, but I haven’t even really patched anything yet.

This jam was mainly just to make sure it worked. Came used from Guitar Center which is always a little iffy (like when they sent an SP404 with the wrong power supply)"
