How To Play Songs On Modular Synths Live

Desperate (Mechanical Mix)

video upload by Downpoly

"The TRS-80 and MIDI/80 meet the Blofeld! Last of these types of videos for while as I integrate all the changes into the writing workflow and bring the organ back into play. The game has changed, I can now create some complicated parts and not lean so hard on the DAW. This synth has far more capable sounds than the S2 McFish, although I am still very fond of its sounds too.

This is just 2 TRS-80s, as described in the Video, the Model III drives the Blofeld via MIDI/80 # 1 (White LEDs) and the Model 4 drives the TD-6 (TR-909) (Blue LEDs). The Model III is 'synced' via a cable connecting both machines printer ports."

Acidcode BassLine ML-303 SN V652

via this listing This one is in via Chris. You can find some DIY builds and demos in previous posts here. These aren't too common. The last post was from 2018 and the first from 2006.

Details from the listing:

"Acidcode BassLine ML-303 analog synthesizer in perfect condition.

One of the best Roland TB-303 replicas in version 6. A classic among step sequencers and rarely available these days. All knobs, buttons, and switches work. Of course, you shouldn't turn it too far beyond its limit to avoid damaging it.

Only the delay knob is comparatively easier to turn, and the knob spins slightly. The delay knob itself works, though, so it doesn't matter if the knob continues to rotate at its limit. I might be able to find a replacement knob.

Firmware version: V7.02 July 08

Included in the offer are:
-Power supply
-1x MIDI red
-1x MIDI yellow
-Stereo 6.3mm jack to mono
-Mono 6.3mm jack
-Manual (printed version only)

Velocité - full album (Mike Oldfield meets Air & Tame Impala)

video upload by Caught In Joy

"Inspired by the fluid energy of Tangerine Dream, the layered elegance of Mike Oldfield, and the dreamlike pulse of Air and Tame Impala, this album explores the strange intersections of speed and stillness.

Velocité is a deep, cinematic dive into motion, memory, and momentum—an hour-long journey shaped by analog synths, ambient textures, and hypnotic rhythms.

Created live and mixed with obsessive attention to detail, Velocité captures that fleeting feeling of being in transit—somewhere between the past and the future. Best experienced in one uninterrupted listen.

Composed, mixed and mastered by Caught In Joy. Karol Pokojowczyk uses Bitwig, Moog One, Moog Matriarch, Prophet-10, 3x Moog Mavis, TipTop Buchla modules, Make Noise Strega, Strymon Magneto, Arturia V-Collection and an army of guitar pedals. Performed and recorded live on tape with TEAC 80-8.

Timeline:
00:00:00 - 1. Velocité
00:10:16 - 2. Clockwork Pastoral
00:17:11 - 3. Microfilm Memory
00:26:36 - 4. Carbon Copies of You
00:28:12 - 5. Cigarettes and VU Meters
00:36:02 - 6. Beta Tape Ballet
00:44:34 - 7. Elevator to the Ether Pt.1
00:51:29 - 8. Elevator to Ether Pt.2

Buchla Tiptop 264T | ART protocol hacking with XAOC Drezno

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"According to Gur from TTA this was unlikely to work, but 'unlikely' is not impossible. The ART protocol is something like analog encoded digital data used to be transferred over regular patch cables. It carries information that can be used to play quantized notes on an ART capable VCO like the 259t (and obviously the ART series from TTA). I tried using XAOC Drezno to convert the ART signal to bits, and then scramble a few before recoding it back to analog. This is just an experiment and it was a bit too much off-topic for episode 14. It would also make the video too long and nobody's watching the end of long videos anymore. It makes me wonder if this could also work on MIDI data, but that's for another day."
