The Terminal Island Freeway (CA 47 & 103) | Synthesizer soundtrack

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We return to Terminal Island to explore its freeways anew after several major construction projects, starting with California highways 103 and 47, which form the Terminal Island Freeway. The island and its surroundings are at the southern end of Los Angeles, and host the massive ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. This gives the drive an industrial, surreal, and delightfully dystopian vibe. The music, which combines metallic sounds with a sense of solitude, reflects the experience.

The Terminal Island Freeway begins at an intersection near the southern terminus of Interstate 710 and heads north, crossing the Commodore Schuyler F. Heim Bridge onto the mainland, where 47 and 103 split. We stick with CA 103 and the freeway, passing by some large industrial facilities and CA 1, and ending at modest intersection with Willow Street in Long Beach.

GreyScale-GeneratePulse #kosmos #renoise

video upload by plantssystem

"GreyScale has released their latest project, "GeneratePulse," which fuses intricate rhythmic structure with an intense visual experience.
The core sound production of this work utilizes Renoise, a leading tracker-type DAW. Fully leveraging Renoise's unique step-based precision sequencing capabilities, a tight, glitchy beat is constructed, themed around "Pulse," as the name suggests. Tracker enthusiasts will undoubtedly appreciate the meticulous programming that conveys a sense of vertical energy.

For visual effects, the hardware video visualizer QuantumVJhd is employed. It converts audio signals into glitchy video in real time, creating luminous visuals perfectly synchronized with the sound pulses.

A fusion of sharp pulsed beats and abstract, high-brightness visuals that respond to the dynamics of the sound.

This work, where the mathematical beauty of digital trackers intersects with analog-like glitch visuals, can be considered a pinnacle of contemporary audiovisual works."

"Gear & Setup
Recreating Boards of Canada’s 'Under the Coke Sign' using the Sequential Prophet Rev2 and Elektron Analog Heat+FX. (Patches made from scratch)
Two custom patches on the Prophet: left hand for the bass line; right hand leverages the chord memory function: hold desired notes and hit unison to trigger full chords with a single finger.

Processing & Sound
The Analog Heat+FX provides warm saturation, EQ shaping, and the warble module, which introduces the characteristic background tape noise heard throughout."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #150: Modal Skulpt - Song 2

video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the second, quite relaxing recording with the Modal Skulpt. It is a unique sounding, little 4-voice polyphonic virtual analogue synthesizer. The size of the Modal Skulpt is somewhere between the Korg Volca and the Sonicware Liven.

I used for the recording the following FX pedals: Boss Slicer SL-2, Hologram Microcosm, Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, GFI System Specular Reverb 2.

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase. The final song was then mastered using iZotope Ozone.

Well, I decided to go back to the basics, but at the same time make something useful for the synth community and do a kind of competition (I like competitions;-). What's my best synth for ambient music :-)"
