Shifted WG

video upload by Christophe Duquesne

"This is a demonstration of a work in progress of sound design for the incoming version of the Eagan Matrix firmware for the Continuums and the Osmose.
Technically speaking, this preset is a waveguide with a pitch shifter in its feedback look ... absolutely not conventional, but really fun.
The audio is direct from the Continuum without any additional effect.
And, as you can see, I was in a mood of having fun with the video effects ;-)"

L-1 Synthesizer plays 'Mysterious Galaxy'.

video upload by Aleksei Laman

"This video I made mostly as a demo for L-1 Triple Discrete Midside/Stereo Equalizer/Resonator, L-1 Discrete Midside Microcopressor, L-1 Stereo Clipper.

This Combo: Midside Compressor - Midside EQ - Clipper, provides full control over dynamic, frequencies and loudness - separate for middle and sides. I used it at the master output of the whole mix, and at every instrument I played and sampled. If I had more expirience in making tracks and better studio, I would record better.

I had only two cases, limited quantity of the modules and cables. So I preliminary sampled instruments. Only the bass synth and the Vocoder go live from the modules. Others - from samples.

Drums - 909 kit from Ableton.
Chord instruments - acoustic piano in the break, and background organ were sampled from Korg TR.
Other instruments were sampled from the modules.

Samples played from Ableton. Then mixed in the Stereo Mixer, then to the Midside Compressor, then to the Midside EQ, then to the Clipper, then to record in Soundforge."

Kaivo: Output Overview

video upload by Madrona Labs

"Overview of Kaivo's Output Module

Kaivo is a software instrument combining two powerful synthesis techniques (physical modeling and granular synthesis) in an easy-to-use semi-modular package. It’s laid out a bit like an acoustic instrument; the GRANULATOR module acts like the player’s touch, exciting one or more tuned objects (here, the RESONATOR module, based on physical models of resonant objects) that come together in a central resonating body (the BODY module, also physics-based)."

AnymaV Noise Fix for Hard Synth Patches - Mark Steiner

video upload by Mark Steiner

"Patches that were made on the Editor for the Anyma Phi (hard synth) and then loaded on the Anyma V (plugin/stand alone) currently will often have white noise blasting loudly that wasn't meant to be there.

Until this bug is fixed... here is an easy work around. Tested and good.

I have a bank of 164 Sounds that work great in both (this fix saved/included) now for Wind Synths. $95 Email me at monkeydrums@hotmailDOTcom to order.

It is also included in my Time Travel Wind Synth package for $250... includes all my sound collections (about 800 sounds currently and growing, you'll get all future collections/additions as well).

Thanks!"

Sequential Trigon 6 vs OB6 showdown !

video upload by Yuki The Synth Dragon

Regarding the wobbly knob, that looks defective to me. I have SN 01091 and the knobs are solid. His is SN 3925. If you have an OB-6 leave a comment with your SN# and whether your knobs are solid or wobbly. If you pick up a new one just check the knobs out of the box, but obviously don't force them. That said, this is an interesting comparison between the two synths.
