"No AI here, this is a real human description in the language of English.

Think of drum loops, drones and leads from the 90s. This is an M-DC1 from Roland, which includes typical banks of patches, but also cool performance and drum modes. Many hip hop loops, trance type stuff. This is a rack module which essentially contains the dance roms that were also available for the JV series in the form of plug in cards. Except this is a standalone rack unit with a JV-esque sound engine.

The JV sound was ubiquitous in the 90s, and not to be underestimated, whether it be traditional piano/keyboard, bass, drums, or leads.

Pretty clean, even the rack ears are pretty clean, Home studio only, not dragged around. Used for supplementing tracks, and some of the drum loops were used as foundations for tracks.

you got your midi, your stereo outs etc.

midi'd it up to another roland keyboard and tested some of the performance loops, and individual patches. That worked for me."

Infinite Patches.. for Free! The Retroaktiv PatchGen


video upload by Starsky Carr

"Unlock the full potential of your Roland MKS-70 (the legendary Super JX in a rack) with the Retroactive MPG7X controller! In this video, I demonstrate how I created a high-quality 25-tone patch bank in record time—it actually took me longer to type the names than to design the sounds.

We dive deep into the Patch Gen (Patch Generator) feature found on Retroactive controllers, which uses intelligent randomization to deliver usable, professional-grade synth tones instantly. Whether you need snappy basses, lush "steam" pads, or lo-fi organs, this tool transforms the way you interact with your vintage analog gear.🎹 "

An Ambient Exploration in Microsound in Two Parts with Morphagene & Mimeophon


video upload by Genshi Media Group

"::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND STEREO EFFECTS, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::

An Ambient Exploration in Microsound in Two Parts with the ‪@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC‬ Morphagene & Mimeophon. Part one also includes the Make Noise QPAS. Both parts towards the end also include a pair of Radio Music modules (though in Part One the second Radio Music module wouldn't trigger). I will be releasing a 5 Track Album with more of these explorations within a week or two. Further details of this video:

You may be asking 'Why didn't he just use modulation on those parameters?' When I'm using a small setup with just two or three modules, I like to manually "play" the modules like an instrument; using my intuition to guide how I am going to evolve the sound. In my main, bigger system, I of course use all sorts of modulation for some of these things with modules like Batumi, Samara, Zadar and others, but I still always leave room to play the instrument manually.

I've been interested in Granular synthesis and Microsound ever since getting Curtis Roads' book 'Microsound' when it first came out in 2001, but even before that, I had been interested in Musique Concrète, with my first experience of that being when my father (who was a Radio DJ and Concert Promoter) brought home the just released Beatles 'White' album and hearing 'Revolution No. 9' for the first time. I was four years old, and it freaked me out! Part two of this video towards the end gets a little 'haunted' as well, inspired by that revolution of musique concrète!

Eurorack Jam - Head Bobbing Into Spring 🌸


video upload by lucafrancinimusic

"A 10 minutes jam with a few modules.
Mother-32, Manis Iteritas, Anti-Oscillator and Modbase 09 Mk2 are the main voices.
Metropolix clocks everything and sequences the bassline (Manis Iteritas). I've used its Mod Lane to change the root of the scale and go beyond the limited steps.
Mother-32 sequences itself; O_c sequences Anti-Oscillator.
Nautilus is the Send delay via Cosmix Pro mixer and Beads provides the reverb and a few high pitched grains."
