DX5 playing Visage "Fade to Grey" (With added Simmons Drums)


video upload by DX5

"Updating an instrumental cover I had already recorded over a decade ago, in this case adding a Simmons tom at the end of the song as on the original version.

Gear used live:
Upper Left: Roland MRS-2 Promars.
Mid left: Roland JP8000
Upper right: Simmons SDS 8 analogue drum module (Note: the pad is not Simmons)
Bottom right: Roland D-10


Backtrack previously sequenced and recorded, instrument by instrument, by me, including a DX7 bassline.

Original song composed by Billy Currie, Christopher Payne, Midge Ure (I would add Steve Harrington, Rusty Egan and Richard James Burgess by their contribution too).

Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara."

The Comper - A Musical Gate Sequencer for Chords and Bass

"The NOH Modular Comper is a eurorack gate sequencer module for chord accompaniment​. Play a gate sequence from a bank of widely used jazz, bossa nova, and pop chord patterns. Patterns range from Swing to straight 8th notes, and are selectable in three time signatures (4/4, 7/8, 3/4). Add a groovy humanized bass that is dependent on the genre of the chord pattern, and perform with randomness for generative music (or lucky musicians). Additional outputs are meter and 8th notes.

This video shows the step-by-step patch on a modular system to set-up the Comper and compose fast but musical chord sequences using the chord and bass gate outputs taken from the module.

The Comper will be available to buy very soon ! :)"

Adventures in Thyme! - Episode 2 - Transforming Ambience and Drones with the Bastl Thyme+


video upload by Oscillator Sink

Adventures in Thyme!

"It's time for episode 2 of ADVENTURES IN THYME! A short series on the channel where we'll be exploring Bastl's stereo digital tape loop machine through a few different lenses. In this episode we take a look at how we can use Thyme+ to completely transform, re-contextualize and animate a drone (coming from the Crows Electromusic Ovum).

Transparency Notice: Bastl kindly provided the Thyme+ to me for free for the purposes of making video on it. I wasn't otherwise paid, and they have not asked for, nor have they been given any editorial oversight of the content I create."

Pimp My Mono

"The Macbeth Micromac-D is a boutique analogue synth from 2013. It has a three oscillator design, and I think it sounds lovely. There’s just one problem. It can only play one measly note at a time! But what if it were possible to play this synth with unlimited polyphony, in real time? Let's find out!
----------

02:02 Technique explanation
03:51 First listen
06:27 Patch parameters

14:03 Jam 1
18:49 Jam 2
19:52 Jam 3
23:26 Discrete MIDI notes
----------
Some additional information:

The explanation of the first patch was simplified. There are a couple of issues to contend with when generating polyphonic parts from a monosynth. There isn’t just one buffer in use, rather multiple in action. Every note on rotates the buffer to be recorded into. This allows the notes of the previous chord to die away while the next chord starts to play, if the playback speed for those previous notes still leaves some signal to be played.

Another issue has to do with recording. A new note on should kill recording into the previous buffer. Otherwise, the notes of the previous chord still in action will start playing a recording of the new note on. I made this selectable in the first patch, because the effect may be desirable from an aesthetic viewpoint.

One more consideration when using an analogue synth controlled with CV and gate as the sound source. If notes are already being held down when the source synth is retriggered, the gate will remain high. As a result, the envelope will not restart. Therefore it’s best to use an envelope generator which is able to be retriggered, like the Intellijel Dual ADSR. That way, every new incoming note will retrigger the envelope.

One last thing: neither version of the patch compensates for audio latency, which means that lower notes are a little late to start."

Pushing the Limits: Creating a layered patch with Peak and Vector Sequencer


video upload by Novation

"Discover Peak: https://novationmusic.com/products/peak

In Novation Connects episode three, we connect our epic eight-voice polyphonic synthesiser, Peak, to the Five12 Vector Sequencer. Here we perform and create a densely-layered, sequenced, evolving single patch on the Peak using the Vector Sequencer by Five12. Pushing the limits of what you can create in one patch.

Chapters:
0:00 - Creating a patched sequence on the Novation Peak with Five12 Vector Sequencer
0:13 - Transposing sequences from the Vector Sequencer to the Peak
0:48 - Sending tracks, or parts, to the Peak via the Vector Sequencer
1:32 - Adding dynamics to the performance with Peak's LFOs and OSCs
1:46 - Utilising the Animate, Filter Frequency and Envelope depth on the Peak"

Rockwell Somebody`s Watching Me ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound


video upload by RetroSound

"(c)2007-24 by RetroSound

❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com

One of my favorite tracks from the 80s.
Somebody`s Watching Me by Rockwell
Produced by Curtis Anthony Nolen and Rockwell, Motown Records (1983)

featured the Moog Prodigy (1979)

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you."
