PlantsSystem-MotionDive

""MotionDive" was created with a SEQUENTIAL Prophet-5 and Poly-Sequencer.
For visual material I used the old MotionDive2.
The randomized program changes are from the Poly-Sequencer.
Note the blinking 'LEDs'.

PLUGIN ./. HARDWARE --- WALDORF MICROWAVE 1, Rev. A vs. MICROWAVE 1 Plugin - DRY AMBIENT SESSION


video upload by LESINDES

"All tracks were recorded as audio signals in Logic Pro over the same inputs and the exactly the same cables. They were normalized and equally levelled and off line bounced without any FX which results in a rather unusual sound. How else could you compare both sources?

You hear the hardware when the synth is shown and the plugin when the plugin is in appearing in this video.

Note that I used here only factory single sound patterns delivered with the Microwave plugin. They were all tranferred into the hardware unit right before recording them track per track.

The mixes were randomly cut in Final Cut Pro. They had to be crossfaded in order to avoid clicking.

To my ears the 2 takes sound very similar. Except for LFO speeds and attacks. The hardware seems to be slower in both cases. Even though the original MW1 manual warns users of setting the attack to 0 as it could result in clicking ;-)."

Trying the new synth models on the Modor DR-2 (no talk)


video upload by Richard DeHove

"Firmware OS013 added four new synth models: saw, square, sine and FM. Here I give them an initial test. First impressions are good. The resonance is pleasantly harsh, the filters have some bite and the sine and FM models are a little quirky. The various quick demo tracks below test out a few different techniques including randomized filter amounts, randomized step fills, synth models panned hard left and right, and parameter locks.

As yet there's no way to play the sounds chromatically with an external keyboard or sequencer. That means inputting notes by the grid and setting the pitch one at a time with the pitch knob. That's not unusual for a machine that isn't designed to be chromatically played, but now that it does have synth sounds that playability would make these models much more versatile. It's easy to imagine a situation where you'd play a pair of synth models from an attached keyboard with velocity, filter randomizations and panning - all while the other four voices continue doing their drum thing. In the meantime there's still lots to enjoy. For example in the video you'll see me transpose various tracks up and down from the root note. An interesting ability.

As always there's absolutely no external processing or effects. This is raw DR-2. And if you'd like to see anything else specific about the DR-2 please let me know.

0:00 Three synths with locks
1:40 Resonant twiddlings
4:06 Res and distortion
