Birthplace of Computer Music | CCRMA Labs Tour

video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"Anthony's musical touch as both composer and performer is connected with some of the most influential creative minds over the last 40 years. He’s composed and conducted original orchestral scores for over 80 feature films including _*Young Guns*_ , _*Internal Affairs*_ , _*The Man From Elysian Fields*_ , _*15 Minutes*_ and _*Planes, Trains & Automobiles*_ , been commissioned by the *Los Angeles Philharmonic* for his symphonic work "In the Family Way", written over one thousand TV commercials in a myriad of musical styles, co-founded Levels Audio Post (LA's premiere post production facility) and performed and arranged on big-box-office films and influential hit records such as *Michael Jackson's* _*Thriller*_ .

His extensive work as a young arranger, orchestrator and performer for *Quincy Jones* , *Jack Nitzsche* , *Lamont Dozier* , *Arthur Rubenstein* and *Giorgio Moroder* was vital in launching his own career. His early years pioneering modular analog synthesizers along with his wide-ranging music scholarship positioned Anthony at the center of the music technology revolution. He attended the University of Southern California School of Music as a piano and composition major.

NEW 2024 Optigan Disc - SYNTHPOP

video upload by optigandotcom

"Now available exclusively at https://www.quilterlabs.com/collectio...

SYNTHPOP was the very first new Optigan disc we created in 2008. We were eager to make something completely anachronistic for the instrument. It was only done as a test, and never issued, though a demo of it appeared on YouTube at the time. Having received many requests for this disc over the years, we finally decided to revisit it, rework it, and issue it to the masses!

Chords:
Synth bass and chords.

Keys:
Lead synth.

SFX:

2 - Drum Machine 02

VGM #218: Reunion // Final Fantasy VII (Synth Cover)

video upload by Amie Waters

"Someone commented that I should consider covering this deep cut from the Final Fantasy VII OST, and after listening to it I knew I would be covering it at some point. The FFVII soundtrack is just so full of incredible music I doubt I will run out of inspiring tracks from it any time soon. Huge shoutout to the goat, Nobuo Uematsu! This is also my very first fully 4K video and the first video made with my new camera!

Amie Waters uses synthesizers and vibes to create emotive and moving covers from your favorite movies, tv shows and video games. Some of her most well known work was made under her old name, Ace Waters, which includes Covers from Undertale, Zelda, and more. Her music covers a wide range of styles, from ambient mood pieces to progressive synth rock and everything in between."

50 Custom Patches for Madrona Labs Sumu

via SYNTH_NYC

"Following my 50 custom patches for Kaivo, I thought I gave Sumu a shot.

Sumu is even pushing further the sonic boundaries; you can create some never heard before sounds.

I have designed 50 custom patches from scratch (using the Default patch) for Madrona Labs Sumu (1.0.0b15)

You can listen to them in high resolution (24bit 96kHz PCM WAV masters, FLAC encoded) on my site (optimized for Chrome on MacOS and Windows): https://synthnyc.com/index.php/album/madrona-labs-sumu-custom-patches-bank-1/

or in low resolution on my bandcamp: https://synthnyc.bandcamp.com/album/sumu-custom-patches-bank-1

All sound demonstrations have external FX.

The first 25 patches are using factory Partials.
The last 25 patches are using PPG WaveTerm samples / transients
https://www.hermannseib.com/english/synths/ppg/wtbwave.htm#sorted
http://ppg.synth.net/waveterm/wt_lib.shtml
which I transformed into Partials using Vutu (0.9.9).

Those are my favorite PPG sounds; I have used them in my Waldorf M ‘The Blue Journey’ sound bank.
https://waldorfmusic.com/produkt/soundset-synth-nyc-the-blue-journey/

From patch 25, each patch name and sound file name has the PPG Transient name embedded in it; e.g. Sumu 34 T864 is using PPG Transient T864. I invite the audience to listen to both the PPG original sample and Sumu patch I created from it to assess the transformation (the objective is to create something new and different, not a 1:1 replica).

Starting from Patch Sumu 17 Clouds (and almost exclusively used till Patch 50), I’ve discovered an another way (compared to Default patch / most factory patches and user manual recommendations) to patch the Sumu Partials module. This opens up Sumu to ultra innovative sounds; you can use Sumu as a granular synthesizer with each grain harmonic having a different envelope / amplitude…

Sumu has become one of my all time favorite digital synthesizer along with Waldorf Iridium, Fred’s Lab Manatee and Korg modwave native.

I hope you’ll enjoy the sound bank as much as I enjoyed programming it."

200e Scroll

video upload by Todd Barton

"This morning I explored taking a single set of patch cables with this little compact system and mining a diverse set of sounds and textures. Not well tweaked patches, I spent about 45 minutes or less generating around 20 patches, but hoping it provides food for thought. Enjoy the stroll through the scroll."

Chance/Microcosm jam

video upload by DecadeBridge

"Chance is a random note generator for the ZX spectrum using its crude beep function. I've set it here to choose random notes from a major scale. I'm then running the spectrums output into the Microcosm which is set to Arp chopping the longer notes from the Spectrum down. I'm then using the phrase looper to layer up the audio from the spectrum, looping and overdubbing."
