BACK TO THE 90s: PROGRESSIVE - DAWLESS JAM / #prophet6 #techno #roland #sequential #tr909 #tr09

"Hardware only, dawless.
All hardware goes thru a compressor and limiter to get the very best sound possible. You can hear how everything is nicely glued together.

Ableton sequencer is used to record each track."

Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge - Orbital Mechanics (Mars)

video upload by SynthAddict

"Maschine+

Mars orbital mechanics (diff. 3 body config.).

I used the closest reasonable multiple of Mars' orbital period for the tempo - 114 bpm

I used the closest reasonable multiples of the orbital period of Mars' 2 moons, Phobos and Deimos.
3 and 2 respectively for a 3/2 time signature (limited options on M+ for custom tempos).

Some odd LFO modulations added on FX too for a little chaos. :-)"

Sound design tutorial from Stranger Things Eleven using OB-6 and Moog Grandmother

video upload by EthanJamesMusic

"This is a sound design tutorial for how to approach a specific sound that was used in the first season of Stranger Things. I was requested to show how I would make the lead sound that happens in the track "Eleven". The sound is a wet electric piano type of sound, with some wrinkles around the use of filter modulation and reverb..

The Sequential Circuits OB-6 can do a respectable job of coming close to the sound, and I tried to get a Grandmother version to come close. This track does require polyphony, so the Grandmother would have to be multitracked to get the same result.

Analog synthesizers have found a way back into film music, which has led to a lot of rich experimentation of what these instruments are capable of. I think my main takeaway is the heavy use of envelope, and setting the filter modulation much lower than a normal synth pluck would require. Also, having a really dry sound mixed in with lots of ambience really cuts through in a way that creates a strong effect."

Keyboard Jun '84 | Turmoil in MIDI land, and isn't pretty

video upload by Espen Kraft

"Not everyone was happy with how MIDI came by and what it became. Many well known people (today) were pretty harsh with how Sequential and the 4 Japanese companies set the standards. The nay-sayers were quite moronic though. They had their chance to be part of the gang, but they bottled it for themselves.
Back in 1983 the MIDI spec page was 10 pages long, but it expanded rapidly. As it was "open source", every manufacturer could implement it as they saw fit and that caused all kinds of problems.

New tech and techniques have always polarized opinion and most people fear new things. Today the rise of AI is such a thing. Some people go bat shit crazy over it, while other's embrace it. Some just ignores it as well. No right or wrong. It all depends on where you're at I guess."

Ultratroninator 3000 shutdown sequence with Easter Egg

video upload by Ultratroninator 3000

"To shutdown the Ultratroninator 3000 hold down the three right buttons. A shutdown countdown starts, and the buttons must be held for the duration of the countdown otherwise shutdown is aborted.

Here's an Easter Egg I added to the Ultratroninator 3000. Release the keys and abort the countdown just a fraction of a second before the timer gets to zero. The LEDs start doing a Conway's Life thing, which is interesting 'cause it's mapped to the 14 segment displays. The three rows of 8 discrete LEDs are also included."

Deep dive with the AtoVproject Dual Harmonic Oscillator

video upload by Tom Churchill

"At the end of last year I took delivery of the Dual Harmonic Oscillator, courtesy of AtoV Project. I did a ‘first patch’ type video a few weeks ago, but now that I’ve had a bit longer to get to know it, I wanted to do another video that explores it in a bit more depth. I’m glad I took my time, because this is a very deep oscillator. It’s quite different from any other VCO I’ve used, and it really rewards experimentation. I’ve been coaxing some amazing sounds and textures out of it, and in this video I break down seven patches."

4TOMS LARIX-ELEKTRO DEMO

video upload by LARIX ELEKTRO

"New module from Larix-Elektro, out now:
AUDIO serie 4TOMS

It's a four voice of drum with a lot of CV controle, and a complete stereo mixer. With a lot of possibilites.
The sound can be gentle, or very dirty.

The perfect module to build drum, tom, clave, bell or even strange FX."

via LARIX-ELEKTRO

"I'm pleased to introduce you to a new module in the new AUDIO series, the 4TOMS.

The 4TOMS is a set of four fully analog percussive voices with a lot of CV control, and with a full stereo mixer. It can generate a lot of various drums, and even kick drums or rimshot.

But the module can go further:
- Bell like, or FX sounds with the CV controle.
- Gentle drums, or very dirty saturated sounds.

The launching price will be 340€.

The module was firstly presented at SynthFest Nantes, and will be presented at SuperBooth too with some other new modules."
