Why & How PTNSHIFT Breaks All The Rules: Beginner's Guide
video upload by Tim Exile
"I launched PTNSHIFT a couple of months ago but the launch video left some people confused. In this vid I walk it right back from the start - including why and how it breaks some core rules about how we make music today.
PTNSHIFT is a generative music performance instrument that combines the deep sonic universe of a modular synth with DJ-style interactions like pattern-launching, mixing, blending and FX.

video upload by Starsky Carr
https://www.patreon.com/starskycarr
Update: new video due to "COPYRIGHT CLAIM on a section of this... Paul Alexander track Raar at 31:19 minutes?!!! Never heard of him or the track. This can be soooo frustrating. What a shambles the whole copyright nonsense can be. I've disputed, but its upto the claimant to decide if they keep my money!!! Its actually chords from another one of my old tracks, so maybe I should put in a counter claim..."
"The fundamentals of programming any Oberheim style synths or plugins. And if you've got an Oberheim OB-X8 and want more patches... you've found the right place too!! Obvs it works for any subtractive synth as well.
I run through how to create basses, from simple and effective to massive and dirty devils.. lush and beautiful pads, sync leads and basses as well as big unison sounds and huge sweeps. If you watch this you'll be able to tweak presets to your liking, or start from an initial patch.
At almost 2 hours its by far my longest demo ever!! And it will gove you all the tools you need for a head start on any subtractive synth"

NINA SESSIONS featuring THE NIGHT TERRORS
video upload by Melbourne Instruments
The Night Terrors are a Melbourne-based electronic music duo consisting of Miles Brown and Sarah Lim. Often billed as 'Australian Electro Goth Legends', The Night Terrors recently released their fourth album titled 'Hypnotica - Composition for Theremin and Electronic Music Synthesizer' featuring Miles on Theremin, Synthesizer and Programming, and Sarah on Synthesizer. For this recording we asked Miles and Sarah to choose two compositions from the new album to perform using two NINAs, and of course Miles' Moog Theremin.
In the two songs featured here Miles uses NINA's 12 voice 4-part Multi-timbral ability to control three layers via DAW and one layer via Keyboard controller (Novation SL61). Throughout the performance Miles is using DAW automation to Morph the A/B patches of each layer. Sarah controls the second NINA with her trusted Korg Krome EX 73, using multi-timbral splits and layers. The Theremin is doing it's own thing - not connected to NINA or any other devices. To get that 'hypnotic vintage horror synth' feel, Miles and Sarah created their own NINA presets as well as using original factory presets. With the exception of the Theremin and some percussion, all sounds are generated by the two NINAs used during the recording. Watch the full performance now"
