"Roland RS-505 that is in perfect technical condition (see pics). A few weeks ago the RS-505 was completely checked by an experienced technician.
Looking at the pics you undoubtedly notice that this RS-505 has got a custom paint job that was done by a previous owner. Some might say that the choice of the used colours is kind of "crazy" others might find it a "piece of art". The print job itself is certainly not perfect (means collector´s item) but really well done."
"Syntronik is a sampled waveform based VST that emulates legendary synths such as Minimoog, Oberheim OB-Xa, Yamaha CS-80, Roland Jupiter-8, Roland JX-8P and Yamaha SY99.
As I can never afford (nor I have space to keep) all of those legendary synths, I bought Syntronik so that I get to play and learn more about those legendary synths.
As I’ve been making analog/subtractive synth-like patches on my DX7, I decided to put my DX7 MK1 against Syntronik with mighty legendary synths like Minimoog, OB-Xa, CS-80, Jupiter-8, JX-8P and SY99.
In this demo and comparison video, you will watch and hear sounds of the DX7 MK1 compared side by side to Syntronik legendary synths. Some sounds are close and others are different in many ways.
Although the DX7 can’t do everything that analog synths with a resonant filter can do, the DX7 can stand its own with unique sounds that analog synths may find very difficult to emulate.
I will take you thorough from very easy installation and set-up steps. I will give you a quick tour of Syntronik interface and legendary synths.
Comparison
Yamaha CS-80 with a synth brass for UK Alaska Vs Power DX7 signature patch, Alaska with a natural flanging effect
Yamaha SY99 with bell and electoric piano Vs Power DX7 signature patches, Bell X2 and E.Piano (beefed up version)
Minimoog with Resonant stab bass & Resonant Sequencing Vs Power DX7 signature patches, Resonant Stab Bass and Resonant Sequencing. As the DX7 doesn’t have a resonant filter, it needs to generate all harmonics using its FM synthesis. This produces a resonant filter-like, yet very distinctive tone with a ‘Sticky’ feel.
Roland Jupiter-8 with Resonant Unison Lead (16 Oscillators stack) vs Power DX7 signature Resonant Lead with ear piecing mid range (no unison for the DX7)!
Roland JX-8P/ JX-10 with Saw Pad Vs Power DX7 Signature Saw Pad
Oberheim OB-Xa with Rush Subdivisions and Van Halen Jump Synth Brasses Vs Power DX7 Signature Rush Subdivisions and Van Halen Jump Synth Brasses
Oberheim OB-Xa with a warm pad Vs Power DX7, Earth 1, the mother of all pads!
To finish this demo, I include a brand new DX7 song called ‘Resonance Beat’ by combining various Power DX7 signature patches, including Bell X2, Resonant Stab Bass, Resonant Sequencing, Earth 1 Pad. Also it includes a new Bell (like a small bell rolling around inside of a glass bottle), a Resonant Filter Sweep sounds and another Resonant Sequencing sound with a formant type tone when played soft (yes, you can have two different tones in a single patch for the DX7!).
You use the CV control input on the back. You can also plug a footpedal in there, I have even tried it with audio once and it worked (only very low frequencies and you need a soundcard that doesn't block DC offset). Be careful."
"Recording the lovely Metasonix D-1000 Drum Machine for http://www.sound-provider.eu/
I'm in Love with its kind of primitive sound, Don't use it if you are afraid of background noise or uncontrolled sub :)
Info from schneiders laden Site:
The D-1000 Vacuum-Tube Drum Machine is the first drum machine made with vacuum tubes since the Wurlitzer Sideman of 1959. Even though it has only four drum sounds -- two tunable drums, a tunable hard "snare" drum, and a cymbal -- control voltage inputs give great flexibility.
"Here's last weekend's patch on a small system. All sound is recorded straight out of this synth. Goes to show that two oscillators, one filter plus Rings and Clouds make for a nicely dense patch. Base drum (way too loud, sorry for that) stems from Peaks. I'm using Batumi + 2 x Tirana and the Sequenced Switch to create all sorts of triggers, random offsets and rhythmic context.
Most of the performance is setting the levels of each component, plus a few tweaks on Maths. I could have done more, but...
... the general problem with recording a video like that is, I could do much more to make it interesting, but it might be difficult to come back to the original setting. Hence some knobs are better left untouched if there's the slightest chance one needs to reshoot. Then, after five or six attempts one is just fine with the bad light, noisy looks and some mixing errors. I need more experience with this :-)

"THIS JUST IN ... formants have taken over my case :S
Well not really, but the Motomouth from Limaflo is great! I'm not planning to do a full overview video with this one as it's not available after the initial Kickstarter (unless enough interest comes about to warrant a run) but I did want to share this patch.
This is just a general patch drone thing I had going but I have got a full patch breakdown exclusively available (very shortly) to patreon supporters. So watch out for that coming soon."
"The MKII Analog Four was just announced and the price drop in the second hand market prompted me to check out what this was all about. After a deep dive into the feature set, and a retrospective look at the early reviews of the A4, Elektron has added so much to the machine via firmware updates, that what it is now is very different from what it was when it launched"
"'Crazy' was a big hit for Gnarls Barkley back in 2006. Here I play it on Yamaha SY-1 synthesizer and Elka EP-8 organ. The rhythm comes from a Rhythm Ace FR-8L."
"Listen with headphones for best results.
This is a re-recording of a track I originally recorded in 2009 called 'The existing parts 1 and 2' (available on my Bandcamp page), only there's not much left of 'part 2' at this stage. It's a particularly cold, bleak little ditty, less melodic in the conventional sense than most of my efforts, but I was in the mood for re-visiting it. The first three minutes are borrowed from an earlier SH-1 composition I uploaded - [posted here]
The original of 'Existing' was recorded with the Oddity VST, although I can't remember what I used for the closing melody, or the percussive sounds. This version is stripped down to two live recordings - the final part is the Odyssey and a piano app (which will remain nameless) triggered simultaneously from the Arturia Keystep, which I subsequently crossfaded between in the final mixdown.
Recorded in AUM via an iConnectAUDIO4+, using Virsyn's AudoReverb on an iPad Air 2.
The video footage was all filmed by me, mostly using a Lumix GX7"
"Xils Lab PolyM based on the legendary Polymoog, Divkid takes us through some selected sounds.
Available in AU/VST, RTAS+ AAX formats. Uses iLok authorisation (dongle or software)
"Please pardon the messy Eurorack. A cool patch I just made, the Mother 32 and O-Coast have the same part, due to the KB out of the Mother into the 1VperOct in of the Coast. All of which are heavily processed by Clouds, which is heavily modulated by various LFOs throughout my system."
"This is a brief vid I did for the students in my CT335 EMT class, introducing a new module we will have for FA16. The design is by an outstandingly talented fellow named Yves Usson, and the build/construction is by another fellow named Jason Fry who has a company called Free State FX, and he will build this or any other of a number of things for you. I'd never bought anything from Jason but this experience was such that I will now buy from him anytime. The build quality (fit, finish, attention to detail) is superb, and the module is so nice that I now want one for my own system."

"Demo of the Yamaha Montage 8 synthesizer. This video is somewhat of a test - updates to Mac OS finally required me to get a new camera, use a new video recording process, and learn a new video editor. Tons of fun!"
"Just picked up the amazing Roland SE-02. Never mind the small knobs, this thing is a monster. The SE-02 is along side the Matrixbrute and the Deepmind 12. The TR-8 and Drumbrute are on percussion duties."
"Hello my friends. In my next "Digitakt Techno Sessions"-Video i wanted to create some Dub Techno with the Elektron Digitakt. I've used a Samplepack tailored towards Dub Techno this time. I bought it over at Loopmasters. It is called "Artisan Audio - Dub Techno" and you can get it here: http://www.loopmasters.com/products/4...

"Interactive birthday cards have come a long way. Back in the day they used to only play the "happy birthday" tune and badly at that. These days the cards are so much better. Recently I had a birthday and got a drum card where you could actually play the drums! I decided to pull the thing apart and make myself a pocket drum set. Find out how to make one in the following link."
