"The MASK1EX is a desktop synthesizer providing all the incredible sounds of the MASK1 in a small, stylish, lightweight and cost-efficient package.

It comes with 377 preset sounds and 200 user memory slots for own creations.

The bitmask sound engine is fully integrated in this module. Each voice offers two bitmask oscillators, two multimode digital filters, four envelopes, a noise source and two LFOs. It also comes with high-quality onboard stereo effects. Polyphonic legato slurs and other expressive play modes do work perfectly via MIDI, it is a unique feature to MASK1/MASK1EX that allows to dynamically change articulation between notes depending on how you play, making the sound more lively than on any other synthesizer. Built-in looper makes it ideal for jamming.

Limited quantities available, this is a one-off production batch."

This Drum is a Synthesizer!!!


video upload by Dylan Ferno

"This is a tutorial on how to get a variety of different sounds out of a steel tongue drum and handpan, without and added external effects from guitar pedals or a computer.

I compare sound design techniques on a Kosmosky 12 inch double sided drum to the Sonicware Liven Ambient 0 Synthesizer to demo how to replicate electronic effects acoustically to add different sound quality to your music.

Some of the techniques used here apply to other instruments like guitar, pianos and other percussion instruments, but some are unique to the steel tongue drum due it's unique form, timbre, and long sustain.

GS Music e7 even the saw inspires


video upload by Scott McAuley Sounds

"Patches will be available at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop or http://www.synthsounds.co.uk

This is a chilled downtempo track that was inspired purely from the e7 saw, it's just mind blowing how powerful its saw is. all synth parts in this track are from e7.

I have now completed the first bank for the GS Music e7, and this synth really is something special! so much inspiration can be drawn from it, it truly has what i believe to be the fattest sounding saw in my studio.

This track is minimal, simplistic in its form but the e7 just made it come together, but that SAW!!! wow!!

fair to say, I love what ‪@GSMusicArg‬ have done with this!

enjoy
Scott."

Creating a Track with the new Sequential Fourm | Voltage Labs

Born Slippy/Underworld (Circuit Tracks Instrumental)


video upload by Guinan

"This iconic tune (featured in the movie, ‘Trainspotting’) is another classic piece of techno from Underworld. This is a bit of a test if I could get anywhere near the sound using just the Circuit Tracks. The main iconic sound synth was apparently produced using a Waldorf Microwave which is a very different synth architecture than the Tracks.

This version was programmed and recorded straight from the Novation Circuit Tracks.

More details for synth nerds.
140BPM
Synth 1 – Pad sound using Digital Vocal waveforms 1 & 6. The original pad has a very sampled vocal tone from the wavetable used so I mixed in some modulated noise to try and get at least part of the same effect.
Synth 2 – percussive sawtooth chords with delay (apparently dotted 8ths on the original but it didn’t sound right so I’ve used 8th delay (preset 11)).
Drum 1- booming 909 techno bass drum.
Drum 2 – 909 hihats and open hihat.
Drum 3 – this might be contentious but ‘the Internet’ suggests Underworld used a loop from the sample CD ‘Best Service:Dance Mega Jungle Rave’. What you are hearing therefore is sample ‘140 25.wav’ from this set I found by searching online. Opinion suggests that even if it wasn’t from this CD both they and Underworld sampled it from the same source?
Drum 4 – this is reserved for the vocal samples – surprising how essential to the song they are!"
