ESK - GRP A2 + Sequencer


video upload by Metunar

"A simple sound demo of the GRP A2 analog synthesizer.
I used ringmodulation and the internal arpeggiator.
The Elektron Digitone does only sequencing and effects (Delay and Reverb).
Soft Mastering.

"This firmware update brings new features to BlueARP DM: drum sequencer mode, chain variations and several GUI and workflow improvements.
BlueARP DM is a programmable 8-channel pattern arpeggiator, details here:

https://omg-instruments.com/wp/?page_... BlueARP DM's are made by hand in small quantities, they can be ordered here (usually with a waiting time of 1-2 months)

PS. I didn't like the previous version of this video - I was too tired when I recorded it (after 2 days of coding and testing almost non-stop), so I re-recorded it and this one - I like it better,

Dannysound / Tobinski System Test


video upload by Dannysound

"Testing the system for Superbooth 24 - The new modules also feature a name change as the brand is slowly moving over to Tobinski.
New modules due to be released this year are:

Sequencer - 2 banks of 8 voltage sliders, each bank referenced by 2 independent 8 step sequencers for a total 4 sequencers. Each sequencer features start and end loop points plus external clock inputs. The sequencer has 8 voltage outputs, 6 gate outputs plus transport controls for the internal clock.

Sequencer Expander - Adds a host of extra functions to control each of the 4 sequencers. Including CV over loop start and end points, gate length, step order and many more...

Dual LFOs - 2 LFOs with 16 waveform types. One LFO can be synced to a clock while the other resets to an incoming pulse, plus cv and cross-modulation options for all parameters.

Harmonic Timing Generator - Can be used as a Harmonic Oscillator or Harmonic LFO that can clock each the 4 sequencers in the Sequencer module. The module features multiplier inputs x2, x3, x5 and x7 to multiply the internal oscillator or external sources. It also has 3 outputs for the multiplied waveforms that can be CV or manually addressed using the pushbutton switches or pots.

Interpolating Scanner - Internally connected to the Harmonic Timing Generator and features not only an 8 input scanner with CV options but also has 8 VCAs that act separately from the scanner with their own outputs, plus mixer outputs for ODD, ALL and EVEN for both the scanner and VCAs to allow for stereo effects among other possibilities.

Dual LPG/VCA - 2 x LPG/VCAs in one 6hp module that combine the Dannysound MM VCA based on the classic Mini Moog VCA and also the classic Buchla LPG design (used throughout this clip!) so famous for it's acoustic tone.

Come say hello at Superbooth, I'll be in the Bungalow Dorf with some other great manufacturers!"

sequencer sync

"Sequencer synced to malekko varigate 8 doing the drums and resetting the bass line coming from sequencer CH1. Voltage block is controlling the step order of sequencer CH3 that does the percussion sounds.
Percussion and bass sounds from the EN129 and Cali oscillators using Timbre and Dual LPG/VCA modules. Drum compression using the Dynamics with some added noise to glue the drums together a bit."

Morning routine with OB-6 and Yamaha reface CP - tribute to Phil Glass


video upload by Franz Schimmel

"This is my tribute to the music of Philipp Glass - an experiment in sequencing and repeating... ;-)

It was done in 2 layers, so i could overdub the sequence with a grand piano which comes from Yamaha reface CP."

Early 80's TAMA DS200 Analog Drum Machine Synthesizer SN 200686

via this listing

"Very rare/ Uncommon early-80s drum synth capable of some wild sounds from full-bodied electronic throbs to wild space-age squeaks and bleeps.

Made famous by Joy Division on their Unknown Pleasures album by producer Martin Hannett who used it as part of the wild industrial sound on the album. New Order also made use of these unusual machines.

Features two analogue oscillators with sensitivity, sweep range, sweep time, decay time, volume controls and a pickup input for each oscillator.

The envelope depends on the input source like an envelope follower.

Great for booming kicks and toms, all the way to sweeping laser blasts.

Sounds can be triggered by microphone/pickup or synth gate/trigger.

Synth can be turned on via foot switch."

You can find additional parts in the series here.

"Audio + Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2024

Today I give you an introductory series of videos covering Modular Synthesis 101. This course is for anyone who's been mildly curious about modular synthesizers. Maybe you've seen your favorite musician like Johnny Greenwood using a modular synthesizer at a show. And always wondered what does all this stuff do? I'm here to demystify it for you. Today we'll start with some basic terminology and a typical synth patch. What is a typical synthesis setup? What are the kinds of modules in that setup? What will we learn moving forward?"
