The Smoke-Grey Season (composition) for Clavinet, Arp 2600, Voyager and Mellotrons
video upload by R. Reger
"A little showcase of the clavinet’s versatility in non-funk contexts -- it's played thru a couple different stompboxes and an overdriven Leslie 3300. The title is borrowed from the great Chicago novelist Nelson Algren. Downloads are available at regermusic.com."
Vangelis on the Real CS-80 (Now with Proper FX!) | Blade Runner + Chariots
video upload by Andy Whitmore
"After a bunch of you (rightly!) pointed out how much Vangelis relied on reverb, delay, and chorus, I went back in and rebuilt the atmosphere properly. This is the CS-80 as it was meant to be heard: huge, cinematic, and dripping in Blade Runner / Chariots energy.
In this video I play 8 classic Vangelis riffs on my original CS-80, matching both the synth tones and the iconic effects vibe as closely as possible."

EP133 KOII - - - - - - - - Roland S-1
video upload by Perplex On
"Sequencing the #rolands1 with the #ep133koii while playing with KO2‘s midi fx for dynamic speed control and additional midi notes on top of the sequence. Super fun! And since both devices use a mini midi jack, a regular 3.5mm jack cable connects both. Pretty convenient."
Super JX 10 Vecoven V4 editor
video upload by Craig Barnes
"This is my first pass through the Super JX-10 editor, just wired all the pots, sliders, display, buttons etc into the mux and MCP chips. All programmed up for testing. A lot more to do and test as it doesn't do anything with upper and lower sections yet or send out any NRPN or sysex messages."
