BeatMakerTV - iPad StudioHD Demo Part 1

YouTube via BeatMakerTV | October 04, 2010

"Action Speaks Louder than Words. Messing around with some loops and effects in StudioHD.
Load up .AiFF or .CAF files and get to Mixing. You can Record Vocals without a MIC (I used the Built-in Mic) on your Track and whatever else you can think of. I don't Rap but managed to make a song with a Hook and Verse without a mic. This is a great Scratch Pad for you MC's and Producers. When I make Beats I usually know how I want the hook, so this is a good way for me to jot it down on the fly. Get Creative, Use what you got and Have Fun!
Holler @ me if You got Questions.

"Don't feel like dancing" - on Elka X-1000

YouTube via organfairy | October 05, 2010

"It was a bit hard to make an organ version of this song. The signer bends the notes a lot and has a quite free interpretation of the melody. But I think I managed to make a decent job out of it. Everything you hear in this video is played on the Italian Elka X-1000 organ but some of the voices has been treated with echo and other effects in post production.

I hope you didn't expect me to prance around in tight leather clothes like the singer of Scissor Sisters did in their original video to this song! Well, actually I did find a picture of me in riding boots and a shiny black jacket - look at the end of the video - it was something I occasionally wore in my student years."

DIY Mattson Mini Modular Tripple Filter & More

What you are looking at is three Mattson Mini Modular filters housed in one 5U module made by Luka. The image is from this post on Muff's showcasing what people have made with MMM DIY modules. If you have an account on Muff's and are logged in you should be able to see the others. If not, I grabbed a few of them for you to see in this post as follows:

BananaPlug's "Squiggletronics edition of the MMM State Variable Filter. I added a 2nd CV input and an attenuator on the audio input. Getting this into one frac unit with 16mm Alpha pots was a tight squeeze. The skinny Davies knob kock offs make it easy to use. The jacks are Serge color code because that's how I do all my 3u banana conversions Blue acrylic panel from Pro-Modular with a bit of white spray paint."

Adam V's Frac 4x Gate Delay, and...

negativspace's "Quad VCA, kitbashed into a VC-mixer via a CGS DC Mixer board, with a side of LEDs."

One thing worth noting about MMM DIY is the circuit boards come fully assembled. Wire and Cable kits are available. You then go from there designing the faceplate, and selecting your knobs.

Oberheim TVS
"The 1970's Brooklyn Rock Band DUNE featuring Vicki Zollo on Vocals, performing their cover of 'Venus' after a about 60 seconds of the progressive number called 'Clockwork'. This video demonstrates to some degree the changes in musical direction DUNE went through from 1976 to 1980. That said ... they did continue to mix progressive songs like Clockwork and more avant garde material into their live shows. Dune's Inna Gada Da Vida cover was very interesting."

The Syntar Turns 32

Today marks the 32 year anniversary of George Mattson's Performance Music Systems Syntar. You might recognize the name Mattson. George is the man behind Mattson Mini Modular. The Syntar, conceived in 1978, was the first all-enclosed keytar synthesizer. Before then keytars were just controllers. You can read all about the history of The Syntar on Carbon111.com here (you'll find a pic of Bob Moog playing Syntar prototype #1), and of course check out the Syntar label for posts that have gone up here. Below are two videos of Red Martian with the Syntar at the PNW 2009 synth gathering.

"Leading up to our 'Bob Moog Live' CD Release Party on October 10, 2010 at the LAB, we are presenting a series of blogs written by Dan Lewis. Lewis is the only surviving member of the trio of Bob Moog, Mike Abbott and Dan Lewis who rehearsed and performed together for this recording. Dan will be performing and speaking at the release party.

'Bob Moog Live' is one of the very few recordings that exists of Bob Moog performing on the Minimoog..."

October Moog Issue of Keyboard Magazine

You might recall from this post, the cover and feature of October's issue of Keyboard Magazine is "The Minimoog at 40." It's worth noting there are a couple of other articles featured and currently online including "Bob Moog Lives" by Bob Moog's daughter, founder, and Executive Director of the Bob Moog Foundation; and "Beyond And Because of the MiniMoog" by Eric Norlander and Stephen Fortner. The latter features a number of synths "that shared similar design aspects, or whose makers got into the solo synth game after the market proved that Bob Moog was onto something." Below is one such synth.


Note this is not a Voyager, but the HELMTRONIC CHALLENGER
"Shown at this year’s Frankfurt Musikmesse, this aptly-named German boutique synth boasts four oscillators, two filters, and of course, a flip-up control panel."

Yamaha An1x control synth...the Blue beastie

YouTube via mik300z | October 04, 2010

"Only had it a week, but love it already:) The factory presets are totally 1997 dance scene so slowly going through and replacing them with my own. There is a monster of a machine lurking under the sheepish blue cover. These patches are my own edited ones apart from the step sequence part, a patch called "Alan". I'm not usually a tweaker but this thing screams at you to twist those control knobs. The An1x was one of the first analogue modelling synths, had great reviews at its launch and is still respected by musicians today. Nice to have a Yamaha in the studio:)"

USB-Octomod - USB to CV Project

"The USB-Octomod is a USB device which allows generation of computer-controlled analog synthesizer control voltages in the range of approximately +/- 5V. Using a small open-source and cross-platform host application, the user is able to control the 8 output channels of the Octomod through a simple OSC interface. The OSC interface allows composers, musicians, etc. to control the Octomod from their software environment of choice."

You can find more details on the project on Greg Surges' site here. Be sure to check out his other projects as well.

It was a bit too cold so my fingers weren't as quick as they should have been thus resulting in some mistakes. Don't let it bother you too much :)

This was done in a single take and I didn't have a chance to try for a second time because my sound recording laptop's battery died soon after this video.

Before you ask, here's a little gear list for you:

-On the stand: Korg EMX, Korg ESX, Futureretro Revolution and the noisy Phonix MM1002 mixer (I didn't want to take the mixer/effects rack with me).
-On the ground: Laptop with goldwave to record the sound.
-Closeup camera Canon EOS 500D (Canon 50mm f1.8)
-Overview camera Canon EOS 550D (Canon 70-200mm L f4)
-One long extension cord
-a piece of plywood and a stand"

CTRLR VST/Au plugin for Alesis Andromeda

"Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm starting work on the design of a CTRLR for the Andromeda. This will be a VST/AU interface for programming the Andromeda with your computer. It's been a long time coming, and the developer of CTRLR has begun the process of working out the details.

Please check this thread for updates:
http://ctrlr.org/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=30

I'll be posting rough mockups of the interface and would appreciate feedback from people who knows a lot about the architecture of the A6. Even after years of ownership I feel like there's a lot to learn. And I suspect that the interface will be very complex."
