Vintage KORG 770 Analog Synthesizer

via this eBay listing, also on Reverb

"Up for grabs is this sweet Korg 770 monosynth. I believe it was one of Korgs first synthesizers and is the precursor to the legendary linage of killer synths like the 700s, maxikorg, and the MS20 etc. I have owned (or still own) them all and i do say that this little beast is the most unique and aggressive synth by way of tone. The filter can be sweet and smooth or gnarly and wild. The ring modulator and noise generator are unlike any other. It all its a great package... in a little package. Nothing else sounds like it."

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-h*ted audio tools. Arturia doesn’t get enough credit for creating what is probably THE most relevant analog poly of the 21st Century, the Arturia Polybrute .

Today, however, we are going to talk about its similarly oversized, far less universally acclaimed and much more archaic cousin, the 2017 Matrixbrute WHICH didn't age so well.

Redshift 6 - Melodic Techno Demo


video upload by Supercritical Synthesizers

"In this Melodic Techno demo, the Redshift 6 is playing four live parts multitimbrally:

Part 1: Polyphonic arpeggio line
Part 2: Stereo unison bass line
Part 3: 5-note paraphonic chord pad
Part 4: Monophonic 303-style bass line

All parts were recorded to separate tracks using Redshift 6’s six individual outputs.Drums and FX were added in post-production in the DAW.

With Redshift 6, multitimbrality is always at your fingertips. Its user interface is built from the ground up to enable a seamless workflow between mono- and multitimbral setups.

Under the hood, Redshift 6 is always multitimbral—there’s no need to switch to a specific multitimbral mode. A new multitimbral synth part can be activated with just the push of a button. Voice allocation, polyphony/paraphony, group settings, and other parameters are easily configured in the Parts view.

Multitimbrality allows Redshift 6 to function as multiple independent synthesizers. Each part can be polyphonic, paraphonic, or monophonic, and each can have its own unique character."

RIFT - Modular Percussion #10 // Arbhar, Prism, Subharmonicon, Mojave, Matriarch


video upload by David Falcon

"/rɪft/
noun
1. a crack, split, or break in something.
2. a serious break in friendly relations.

El objetivo de este tema era hacer un patch percusivo con el modular. En el Arbhar tengo un sample de estática de la radio que paso por el filtro del Qu-bit Prism. Con un sample and hold desde PAM's lo modulo rítmicamente creando el patrón rítmico más agudo.
Despuén en el Moog Subharmonicon tengo un patch de Bombo que paso a través del Qu-Bit Mojave, y así lograr unos golpes que recuerdan a toms haciendo el beat algo más complejo.

Esa capa base quedó grabada durante un par de semanas sin que tuviera opción de añadirle nada más e iba a subirla así, pero decidí crear una linea de bajo con el Analog Four, un arpegio y una textura con el OP-1 y por último un lead/textura con el Matriarch.

The objective of this song was to make a percussive patch with the modular. In the Arbhar I have a sample of radio static that I pass through the Qu-bit Prism filter. With a sample and hold from PAM's I modulate it rhythmically creating the rhythmic pattern.
Later on the Moog Subharmonicon I made a Bass Drum patch that I pass through the Qu-Bit Mojave, and thus achieve some hits that are reminiscent of toms making the beat somewhat more complex.

That base layer was recorded for a couple of weeks without me having the chance to add anything else to it. I was going to upload it like this, but I decided to create a bass line with the Analog Four, an arpeggio and a texture with the OP-1 and finally a lead/texture with the Matriarch."
