OB-6 Synthesizer with Echolocator

video upload by Brian Schaft

"The OB6 Synthesizer has the ability to make wonderful deep plucky sounds as well as smooth pads. I used the Echolocator, made by erica synths, for all the effects, including the shimmery sound. Despite the OB having a decent on-board BBD delay, I found this combination is a symbiotic pair."

Melbourne Instruments NINA - Firmware Update - Multi-Track Sequencer!

video upload by The Unperson

"In today's video I am exploring the latest firmware update for the Melbourne Instruments Nina which radically expands the sequencer from a quite basic 16-step sequencer into a multi-timbral, multi-track sequencer with an insane amount of new features. There is per-step parameter locking, loads of new noise hits for making percussion, as well as live recording making it incredibly easy to perform modulations and visually see what is being modulated. For more info head on over to the Melbourne Instruments website, where you can also find my presets for free!

Meng Qi's Live Performance at TAM Club VI, Linz, Austria: Every Performance Has No Turning Back

video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority

"This is a record of my performance at the TAM Club VI event held at Stadtwerkstatt in Linz, Austria, on May 14, 2025. Linz is a city that attaches great importance to electronic art, having hosted the Linz Electronic Arts Festival since 1979. This May performance will also be included in Linz's database. I didn’t want to leave anything subpar behind. During the performance, I used the first prototype of Skies, as well as Mannequins' Just Friends and Silhouette. The sound in the venue was unexpectedly wonderful, so that I couldn't help laughing several times during the performance... I recently received the recording of this performance and would like to share it with everyone."

"I keep returning to the bass line off of Tangerine Dreams 'Rubycon' (1975).
This rendering is more of an exploration of variations of how to control that sequence on the synthesizers.com Q960, a clone of the Moog 960 Sequential Controller. Short but fun and always satisfying.
The oscillators used were the Q169 dual Oscillator, a Q206 and Q206A. The Q169 is in square wave and sync, the Q206 is doubling in a sawtooth wave. The Q206A is a triangle wave directly to the mix in a lower octave.
The filter was the Grove Audio G294A Tribute Series Moog transistor ladder low pass.
I also used a tube drive from the Synthetic Sound Labs/CGS 1530 Tube VCA/Timbral Gate module after the output of the filter.
The envelope generators included a Q109 for the final VCA shape, another Q109 as the filter shape, an STG EG for the tube drive gate shape and another STG EG for the lower bass vco.
The signal was split and sent to the Yusynth panning mixer from Lower West Side Studios and to an Echo Fix tape echo/reverb device. The tape echo was panned using the second row of the Q960 sequencer. That row was also sending a filter modulation voltage. The final output of the mix was sent through an Empress Reverb pedal in red reverb+delay setting.
The final third row of the Q960 sequencer was used in 'Third Row Control Of Timing' mode for the fast burst motion as in the original bass line performance by Tangerine Dream."
