Happy 909 Day with Melbourne Instruments NINA Analog Poly Synth Bass Monster

video upload by Melbourne Instruments

"Happy 909 day! NINA gets a proper 909 workout. Nothing but the NINA + TR-909 improvised live!

NINA is a 12-voice analog poly synth monster with multi-layer and patch morphing all with motorized knobs. Here we are morphing a BASS patch, while constantly manipulating the sound on the fly.

NINA combines the functionality, versatility and compatibility of modern digital equipment with the hands-on tactility and lush sound of classic analog synths. The result is a massive sounding analog polysynth, with an intuitive interface and workflow that gives you more control during composition and live performance."

"Echoes of Yesterday's Tomorrow" - (Tracker Plus, Roland TR8s)

video upload by Electronisounds Audio

"A track for the Hardware Jams Facebook Group's weekly challenge, which was:

'Do electric sheep dream of android phones? This is the question the admin crew woke up to this morning. And here is your weekend challenge. Inspired by the sci-fi classic, we would love you to embark on a futuristic journey taking inspiration from the very same question.
There could be various interpretations for this challenge. For example, you could create a sonic landscape with futuristic elements; what if you could create a jam that reflects the dreams your very own machines had when they are switched off and so on.'

Whatever kind of music you are making - KEEP IT UP, Friends!
Don't stop making *YOUR MUSIC*!!

video upload by Danniielle

"A short video testing out a new pan/fade module and new power harness I have just installed in my custom synthesizers dotcom modular synthesizer.

Roland System 700 sequencer is patched into dotcom Q960 sequencer, Roland System 100 synthesizer and Moog Voyager. I will be doing a recalibration of the oscillators shortly and patching in the rest of the system for a more detailed test.

Also part of my modular setup but not patched in for this video are the following:
Roland System 500,
Roland System 1m,
Moog Mother 32,
Roland System 8.

Audio is from my phone microphones in my Samsung A12 phone with Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro headphones placed over the microphones.

No additional effects or processing added. Audio is directly from the output of the modular via a FSFX 5U version of Mutable Instruments Clouds module."

New 3rd Party Hidden Sysex Based ZEN-Core Editor-librarian for MC-101 and MC-707

video upload by Benedetto Schiavone

"ZEN-Core Sound Banks (222 tones) for all Roland Synthesizers, Piano, Groovebox, Wind-Instruments, Guitar Synth compatible with the ZEN-Core standard"

Available at: http://www.benis.it/cm/ZC_Editor/ben6...

Addtiional details in via Benedetto Schiavone:


"As is known, the two Roland grooveboxes do not officially support MIDI SysEX messages and there is no documentation relating to their implementation which is hidden

In reality, the MC-101/707 are able to receive and send such messages: they respond with a completely wrong addressing, with duplicate and incorrect data which however can be corrected and used by the software.

The editor-librarian, like the analogous versions for Fantom/0, AX-Edge and Jupiter-X/Xm, communicates in real-time and bidirectionally with the groovebox, using MIDI SysEx messages."
