video upload by AutomaticGainsay

"Here is part one of a six-part demonstration of the placement and use of samples from a 1967 Moog 900 Series modular on the incredibly versatile Arturia MicroFreak!

The instruments in the theme music (including some drums) were created entirely with samples of the 1967 Moog 900 Series modular played on the Arturia MicroFreak, and multitracked.

VEKT - Portable Drum Computer V.4


video upload by uszymyszy

"Hi! Here is v.4, I redesigned the enclosure to be more rugged, we have also a battery and speaker. Most of the errors are solved, the UI is quite cluttered yet and I make a lot of missclicks/wrong shortcuts but after some tweaks everything should go fluent.

The idea is to have a pocket version of Ableton workflow, simplified but easy enough to create sketches for further polishing in DAW. I plan to build several units for testers but is still a lot of work to do and I cannot guarantee anything at the moment. I will try to progress as much as possible to finish this in this year."

And from one year ago:

Vekt - Portable Drum Computer

video upload by uszymyszy

"I built a Pocket Operator alternative. It can now record and play internal synths. There are 4 engines:
- Bass (Roland TB-303 mod),
- Lead (8bit style),
- Braids (implementation of Mutable Instruments eurorack module),
- Wavetable (several waves mixed by knobs)

I hope the UI is self explanatory, it is focused on simplicity and uses Ableton-like mini session view to launch clips"

The first prototype was shown 3 years ago on reddit.

It looks like a Dirtywave M8 tracker, but is different in both build layout and function. From the creator:

"M8 is a stunnig device for complex projects, I plan to keep my Vekt operator more like pocket op where you can quickly create sketches/ideas and polish them later on DAW. And the main idea for me personally was to quickly create rhythmic sequences which I can use with my visualization app instead making them in DAW, this will speed up the process."

AE Modular: Making a Berlin School Track


video upload by The 5th Volt

"In this video I give a step by step tutorial on how to make a very simple track in the Berlin School style of electronic music. I'm using the Synthexplorer from tangible waves with only a few basic modules, so you should be able to follow along with pretty much any system (even Eurorack!)

00:05 Intro Track
01:08 Introduction
02:52 The Tutorial
22:42 Bonus: The whole track

All sounds from the AE Modular from tangible waves recorded using the Zoom H6 recorder and processed in Da Vinci Resolve."

Herbie Hancock “Chameleon” Synth Bass Breakdown


video upload by Anthony Marinelli

"Check out my breakdown of Herbie Hancock's 'Chameleon' bass sound. I'll show you step by step how to re-create it using the same 1972 ARP Odyssey model synthesizer as Herbie...including performance tips!

Not only is it one of my all-time favorite synth bass sounds, it also changed the reach of jazz music by opening up the mindset of both jazz musicians and the listening public to fresh new sounds. This was much needed in the 70's to compete with rock 'n' roll's dominance of the airwaves. Synth sounds allowed jazz musicians to connect with a larger set of minds and voices yet retain still retain musical complexity, quality, and integrity.

The cornerstone techniques in this video will effectively elevate your synthesizer power, no matter what style you prefer.
