Bob Moog Foundation 2024 Year In Review

video upload by moogfoundation

"2024 was as inspiring as it was challenging. Our three hallmark projects, Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, the Bob Moog Foundation Archives, and the Moogseum all saw great growth and growing impact. Hurricane Helene devastated our community and hampered our efforts -- but not for long. Thanks to the support and generosity of our worldwide community, we have been able to rebound, with a continued devotion to inspiring people of all ages and walks of life through the intersection of science, music, technology, and innovation.

We are grateful for all of the opportunities that 2024 afforded us and we look forward to 2025 with great anticipation.

Stylophone CPM DS-2 Drone Synth Falling Star and Bubbles Patch Tutorial

video upload by I Love Cats and Synths

"Since my 'Falling Star' patch has been such a big hit, as well as the 'Bubbles' patch I used in my unboxing video, I made this tutorial showing how to create these sounds on your own CPM DS-2!

If you skip ahead in the chapters, you'll need the Falling Star patch set up before moving on to Bubbles.

Kursa - Arpoloop X Oto Boum X Elektron Syntakt Jam

video upload by KURSA.

"January 20th 2025

The arpoloop is a mysterious and somewhat bewildering beast that I am in no means an expert in operating yet. That being said, I find it's incredibly effective at creating slow building hypnotic compositions."

HWJ Weekend Challenge - Lynchian

"Maschine+

Jam loosely based on something from the final season of Twin Peaks (2017) at the Roadhouse. The original track is something David clearly loved."

The sound of Dave Smith´s Poly Evolver | No talking

video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde

"This is the sound of Dave Smith´s Poly Evolver with some reverb from Strymon´s 'Big Sky' and some Delay from Strymon´s 'Volante'.

No other hardware was used. No compressor, no limiter, no equalizer, nothing, but the pure Poly Evolver."

Fred Lab’s Buzzzy! Demo

video upload by Panu M Savolainen

"Multitracked demo of Fred Lab's Buzzzy!. External reverb (Eventide Space) and delay (Waves) used for some sounds but it has also internal reverb."

Blue Monday/New Order (edit) - Novation Circuit version

video upload by Guinan

"It's Monday so what could be more apt than todays Hacienda club classic, Blue Monday.
As per usual this is ALL Novation Circuit Tracks playing live from the headphone jack direct into my phone. No extra synths/no effects/no extra edits.

There is a lot going on in this track so I've squeezed a bit extra out of the groovebox in using some short melodic samples in place of drum sounds on 3 pads.

If people like this I'll do a '12" remix' version with the Novation Circuit Rhythm padding out the tracks. Let me know in the comments.

Details for synth nerds (extra video after the song);
I programmed the top arpeggio line on the Circuit Tracks quickly realising I was going to run out of voices. I sampled the riff and stuck it on a pad and played it back as a pattern and saved myself a voice,
I couldn't get a bass synth sound that would double up as the main synth and as Peter Hook. Instead I played a short twangy bass guitar (one of the old wooden ones with strings and stuff :P ) through a spring reverb in my best impression of Hooky and sampled it on the Circuit Rhythm. I then transferred this onto one of the drum sample pads and put it on Drum 4 as another pattern, finally there is a choir sample the band played on an old Emulator. I simply copied the same source they used ( ;) Google It!) and made a loop on another one of the drum pads, turning it into a 3rd pattern for Drum 4.

It all needs a bit more tweaking and arranging for the full version but this was sounding good so couldn't resist letting you have a listen."
