ChamberTron-RE Rack Extension for Reason & The History of the Chamberlin & Mellotron
Published on Sep 26, 2017 GForce Software
"ChamberTron-RE is our Rack Extension for Propellerheads Reason users and is based on the sounds of Chamberlin Tape Replay instruments.
Effectively, the forerunner to the Mellotron®, Chamberlin instruments were conceived and built between the 1950s and 1980s by a US inventor of note, Harry Chamberlin.
Because of a dislike of Rock & Roll, Harry recorded instruments that (with the exception of the shared Three Violins sound) differ markedly from those of the Mellotron, and many claim that the Chamberlin recordings are more 'open' and 'natural' sounding
ChamberTron-RE combines the best tapes from the archive of original UK tron makers, Streetly Electronics, together with those from the GForce Chamberlin instrument collection. All in an easy-to-use and highly versatile Reason, Rack Extension instrument."

Vintage Analog Synths - pads/strings shoot-out - old-school synth-pop tutorial/workflow
Published on Sep 26, 2017 Espen Kraft
"Shoot-out starts at 02:07
Which one of the following analog synths from the 80s has the best pads and strings?
Elka EK22
Roland JX-8P
Korg DW-8000
Roland Alpha Juno 2
Roland Juno 6
What effect does the in-built chorus have on the sound?
We find out here in this shoot-out where I put them up agains each other.
These are all synths I use when I make my tracks and I love them all for their respective strenghts.
I've given each synth the same chords and intervals, both with and without the in-built chorus.
This is not a "science" test, but a musically test where I just play some pad and string sounds that I've created to be as similar as possible. There is some differences between the sounds as the internal structure of the sound engines differ. I've chosen a saw wave for all the synths (the Korg has a digitally stored saw) as an oscillator and the first three of the synths can have two oscillators, where as the last two (Juno 2 and 6) only has one.
As you can hear in the shoot-out, they can sound remarkably fat regardless.
Some reverb from the Strymon Bluesky is added on all synths. The Korg DW-8000 is given a slight stereo delay and some chorus externally to get the same amount of modulation as this do not have in-built chorus.

Van speeldoos tot muziekcomputer (1976)

Wait for it...
The following is the video description by some additional info I found on Wikipedia.
"Tentoonstelling 'Van speeldoos tot muziekcomputer' in het Van Goghmuseum in Amsterdam. Beelden van een cilinderspeeldoos uit 19e eeuw, een draaiorgel met orgelboek, een apparaat met papieren muziekrol laat piano en violen spelen, een grote muziekcomputer met veel draden van de Belg Leo Küpper die een demonstratie geeft voor het publiek. Diverse shots van het interieur van het Van Goghmuseum.

If anyone knows more about this system feel free to comment. I did a quick search on Leo Küpper and found the following on a Wikipedia article for Miguel Bonachea:
"Bonachea is an enthusiast advocate of contemporary music and has devoted part of his professional career to its advancement. In the 1980s, he was a co-founder of the National Laboratory of Electro-acoustic Music in Havana, led by composer Juan Blanco, a pioneer of electro-acoustic music in Latin America. Bonachea has been invited as a guest performer in residence at the “Laboratory for Researches on Electro-acoustics of Brussels”, Belgium, to participate in the creation of a composition titled “Guitarra Cubana” by Belgian composer Leo Küpper.[5] Since the beginning of his career, Bonachea has included in his repertoire contemporary works from contemporary composers such as Leo Brouwer, Carlos Fariñas, Hector Angulo, Bernardo Cardona, EfraÃn Amador, Jose A. Pérez Puentes and Armando Rodriguez Ruidiaz, among others. Renowned composers Leo Küpper (Belgium), Moisés Bertrán (Spain), Andrés Posada (Colombia), and Yalil Guerra (Cuba-USA) have dedicated original pieces to Miguel Bonachea.[4]"

Includes power cable, all patch pins plus a couple extra cables for modulation.
There were 3 mods done (one on each oscillator) which are factory mods and allow the user to modulate the "shape" of each oscillator.

A must have for any serious collector or musician's studio. If you have been waiting for just the right Synthi, this is the one! Don't pass this legendary synth up!"

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #39: Yamaha VL7 - Song 1
Published on Sep 25, 2017 Christian's Sonic Spaces
"This is the first song with the Yamaha VL7 Version 2. It's a monophonic synthesizer based on physical modelling algorithms.
I used only the internal effects for the recording except for the melody line that used the following FX chain:
VL7 - TC Electronic Mimiq - DigiTech Obscura- DigiTech Polara.
The signal goes via a small Behringer mixer straight into the pc.
To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with just a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track.
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 :-)"

"Comes with the correct Boss/Roland power pack, low interference and noise, which are in them selfs getting hard to come by, and Kenton din sync.
