DX100 From Mars | Samples From Mars | Fave synth sounds
video upload by Mamotreco
"Samples From Mars has sampled the little FM synth that could, the Yamaha DX100. Plenty of gritty 80s synth vibes here. I've picked out some of the sounds that stood out to me.

Great Synth Mysteries Ep. 6: There will NEVER be another Access Virus
video upload by Noir Et Blanc Vie
"This is a love story about a synthesizer unlike many others, in my opinion a synth the came out so long ago still eclipses many releases of today. Great Synth Mystery, mmm, maybe... but I wanted to make a compelling piece about such a wonderful instrument. As a musician and not a reviewer or journalist I think this really speaks to how ahead of it's time the Access Virus Ti was."

GAME ON‼️ with CORAL and the new 3VCO Engine
video upload by OXI Instruments
"In this patch Batumi is sending CV modulation to one of the Voices running the new 3VCO engine. One modulation to Harm input (frequency of the second oscillator with respect to the main one), the Morph input (frequency of the third oscillator) and Timbre (morphs from Triangle to Square waveforms).
The detuning controls (Harm and Morph) are finely calibrated to easily align with musical intervals
This was a happy accident since the modulation was meant for a different sound engine. It turned out pretty good.
The other voices are playing the bassline, kick, snare and hihats.
The upcoming Coral firmware includes a Delay FX, OXI One is modulating the send amount of the snare to the delay.

SYNTOVOX 221 VOCODER

"Vocoder built by the dutch high end synthesizer company Synton. Distributed in the USA by [Bob] Moog's Big Brair company.
This is the flagship vocoder from Synton, and is among the best vocoders of all time. It shares company with the EMS 5000 and the Sennheiser VSM-201 vocoder.
It's really rare, only 20 pieces was made.
One of the ultimate best vocoders in the universe, if not THE best. This is what Wendy Carlos said (on the web )- 'Question #4 -- What kind of vocoder do/did you prefer? Felix Visser made the best ones, for his long-gone (alas!) Synton company, all during the 80's. Some other fine devices exist, as the EMI/Synthi big one, and Sennheiser's expensive one, those and dear Harald Bode's design that Moog's good 16-band one was similar to. The ultra-basic analog units were generally mushy-sounding. Synton's had the best intelligibility on spoken words for their original 32-band device, .......' This is Felix's own machine, serial number 010, and was actually used extensively by Wendy Carlos - there's a typed note to her on the power supply saying it had been changed to 115V for her. It has now been changed back to 220V by Felix Visser. Unlike some models, it has a complete case. It will be sold fully working, and with a signed cerificate of provenance.
Synthovox 221 is a 20-channel vocoder system which has made its way to numerous recording studios, radio stations, composers and scientific institutions for its outstanding quality and its unexcelled intelligibility.
It includes 54 dB/octave filter, a feature not found in any other vocoder on the market. It also offers the versatility of a build-in pulse generator for direct speech sythesis and several control units for pitch modulation.
It features matrix patching for format shifting and a highly precise voiced/unvoiced detector system. And it offers extreme flexibility by the multiway connector which gives access to the analyzer and synthesizer sections and the control terminals of the voiced/unvoiced detector.
The Intelligible Machine has set standards in vocoder techniques.
High end model, attenuator per channel.
Only about 20 of these were made. Users include Wendy Carlos (who owns a 221 & SPX 216), various electronic studio's in Europe. Best suited for studio use due to complex control.
The 221 has a 50-pin connector on the back which provides CV in and out for each channel, and other functions as described above."

Kawai R-50e Digital Drum Machine - Sounds and Patterns
video upload by zibbybone
"Little brother to the R-100, but agressive none-the-less. Drum sounds include Simmons-style electronic kit, Reverb kick, snare and toms, gated snare, claps, 'HiQ' click, snap, thumb and slap bass guitar, 2 different orchestra hits and timpani.
Here I demonstrate the 4 preset drum kits and the 8 USER kits which can be overwritten with your own settings along with the 50 built-in drum patterns.
Audio was recorded direct from the headphone output into the stereo mic input on my Canon T3i (sorry about the line noise in a spot or two). Any reverb you hear is sampled into the drum sounds. Delay and flange effects can be programmed into a drum kit. I'm pretty sure those effects are achieved by "doubling" the voices limiting the machine's 8 voice polyphony."
