Oberheim TEO-5 vs Sequential OB6 (Tone and filter focus, no talking no fx)

video upload by Infested Alien

"Just a super simple comparison trying to match them a bit to each other. The matching is oriented more towards OB6 since it has least modulation possibilities compared to the TEO5. When it comes to the tone character I've to say OB6 is more in my taste but we are limited with modulation on the OB6 so if you love modulation then TEO-5 is the king :)"

From the listing (Google translated):

"The case shows virtually no signs of wear.
As far as I can tell, nothing appears to be damaged.
This is an absolute rarity!

Please note - Unfortunately, I cannot technically test the device, as I don't own a Commodore 64.

For this reason, I must sell the SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS Model 64 as 'untested' or 'unreviewed'! This sale is non-returnable!

There is some information about this device online - for example - https://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/sci-model-64-sequencer/7891"

Similis - Chords

video upload by DecadeBridge

"Similis is a lofi synthesiser that has 6 different presets.

This is an example of the 'chord' preset.
The first control sets the root note of the chord. The second selects 1 of the 10 chords available (5 major variations and 5 minor). The third control sets the volume of the notes that make up the chord except the root. Each of these controls has a CV input.
Here the root note is controlled by the keystep pitch. The VCA is being gated by the keysteps gate out. The volume of the chord notes are controlled using the mod wheel."

"Similis is a lofi chip tune synthesiser that uses basic waveforms to generate it's sound.

Features:-
6 different settings (TYPE) from stacked oscillators to chords to self sequencing.
The setting selection can also be stepped using a trigger/gate signal for some odd patch skipping.

Each control can also has a CV input for connecting external gear.

Settings 1-3 deal with stacked oscillators.
3 oscillators with independent pitch. Sine, Saw and Triangle waves.
3 stacked oscillators. The first sets the root note and the other two are detuned plus and minus from the root.
The two detuned oscillators can be faded in.
Chords. The first oscillator sets the root note. The second control sets the chord (5 major chord variations and 5 minor) The amount of voices in the chord can be altered using switch C. The chord notes can be faded in to give a swell effect.
Settings 4-6. Simple sequencing.
The last three patches are random sequencers. The first is free running. Select between, chromatic, major and minor scales. The range and rate of the sequence can be altered and a second oscillator can also be brought into the sound.
The last two patches substitute the rate control as a mix for other voices. A short trigger signal is needed to tell Similis to choose a new random note/s within it’s selected scale.

The output is run through a 3 position passive LPF which turns into a Low pass gate when the VCA switch is down and a CV signal is connected to the VCA input."

Dreamy Soundscapes: Prophet Rev2 Meets Hologram Microcosm

video upload by Le Code

"The Prophet Rev2 produces such organic, warm sounds that it only needs a few effects to transport us into space. The notes are multiplied by the Hologram Microcosm, while the Strymon Big Sky adds depth to the whole : it's an ambient melody.

Yamaha ED20 Sample Pack Demo - Lovingly recorded from a rare drum pad synthesizer

video upload by Edward Jones

"You can buy a sample pack of all sounds recorded dry and lowest pitch from the unit. The samples are possibly 12 bit internally. I cannot work out how to open up the machine without destroying it (hence that small tear on the drum head)/

https://loscha.bandcamp.com/album/yam...



Each sample has been normalized. The actual sample playback volumes on the machine were erratic. They were triggered using the PAD IN terminal at the back and triggered from the DAW so the samples would be time aligned and sightly easier to chop."
