Boss DR 55 Dr. Rhythm Analog Drum Machine Demo


Published on Oct 19, 2017 Sound Provider

"Another Drum machine we use for the Sound Provider Sound Banks.( http://www.sound-provider.eu/ ), archaic to program but super punchy sound

The Boss Dr55 "Dr. Rhythm" Drum Machine is a early 80s vintage Japan write-step drum machine.

Some words about it from VintageSynth.com:
"The DR-55 Dr. Rhythm was released in 1980 and was one of the first step-write-style drum machines, and it was the first rhythm machine in BOSS' successful Dr. Rhythm Series. It was small, inexpensive and easy to use - perfect for musicians at any level. Incredibly basic controls and sounds made this drum machine an instant hit among guitarists and other musicians looking for drum accompaniment to practice along with and even record into their home recordings.

The DR-55 could store up to six 16-step drum patterns plus an additional two 12-step patterns. The 12-step patterns allowed for 3/4 and 6/8 rhythms. A variation switch allowed you to, on-the-fly, alter the pattern playing. There were only four sounds in the DR-55 which included Snare Drum, Kick Drum, Rim Shot and Hi-Hat. The sounds are comparable to Roland's CR-series of rhythm machines as well as some of Roland's cheaper TR-machines (like the TR-505, TR-606). You can globally adjust the Volume, Tempo, Tone and Accent for the drum sounds.

Step-Mode programming was accomplished in a fairly basic manner: Switch the DR-55 into Write Mode and select a sound from the Sound switch, and use the Start button to place the sound and the Stop button to step through the 16 (or 12) beat pattern. Only Kick, Snare, Rim Shot and Accent could be placed in a pattern in step mode--the Hi-Hats could only be programmed as either Off, 8ths, 12ths or 16ths via the Hi-Hat switch. Primitive programming for sure, but very simple and effective.

Today, where its sounds can easily be sampled, the DR-55 may seem pretty useless. However it does have an authentic sense of nostalgia being BOSS' first DR-machine and also quite a successful early programmable drum machine. You may not find a need for such an instrument today although it does make a great conversation piece! It has been used by New Order, The Cure, Chris Carter, Sisters of Mercy, Chris & Cosey, Xeno & Oaklander, Soft Cell and Thomas Dolby."

Mozart? On Gotharman's Little deFormer 3 synthesizer & groovebox?! #TTNM


video upload by THE TUESDAY NIGHT MACHINES

"Yeah, okay, this was a test how difficult it would be to program actual notes from another music piece into Gotharman's Little deFormer 3 sequencer. Turns out the various sequencer editing modes make this not very hard at all ... it's quite convenient actually, especially with the step recording mode, which I seem to have criminally neglected in the past.

No samples or analog filters in this jam, only the LD3's internal synth sound engines and effects.

"Program 24 brings you the pure sound of '80s Italo Disco inspired by two wild synths nearly lost to time, the Solton Programmer 24 and SM100. The Programmer 24 is an unassuming 3-octave keyboard released in 1985, it contained everything necessary to produce complete arrangements, and real time performance features perfect for backing up the band. It sported a full 8-bit PCM drum section, analog bass and lead arpeggio with analog filters, violin, cello, and 3 flute voices (8', 4', 2'), a featured arranger, chord and pattern sequencers. To top it off, it had individual outputs for 8 drum parts and bass, full MIDI, and a tape interface for storage.

What really caught our attention with this little beast was the sound. Right out of the box it just sounds good, packed with an '80s character we simply adore. The drums are clean and punchy, the bass and arpeggio pack vintage funk, and all the voices work together to create a full and truly classic sound.

The SM100 is another cool analog synth, with DCOs and a phenomenal chorus/ensemble effect. We multisampled every sound allowing you to engage the chorus effect just like you would on the real thing. All-in-all these two fantastic machines deliver tons of flavor and great sounding voices ready to lay down the groove for a new generation.

Program 24 delivers sounds and arrangements from a special period of time, and new and unique ones inspired by these machines. We captured every drum sound (and some extras from mythical machines like the DMX, Linn, 8o8 and more), along with the full range of each analog voice, MIDI drum patterns, classic and chord follower arpeggiators, and discrete preset recall for each sound. Numerous included multi kits, single sound presets, arpeggiators, drums kits and drums MIDI files deliver both pure vintage and all-new sounds and patterns designed by our team, giving you a huge variety of both classic '80s sounds and contemporary patch designs.

For those looking for the complete package the included multi instrument offers a fully-loaded and fully-programmable workstation allowing you to program complete arrangements with your DAW, using all the hardware voices together. For added convenience and sound sculpting potential we've included 2 reverb sends and 2 delay sends that can be fed by any of the drum or instrument voices, along with per-instrument multimode filters, drive, phasor, and EQ. Finally, 2-bus effects including drive, compressor and EQ help you add punch and polish to the mix without leaving the UI.

As well, we've made each of the instrument sections available separately, allowing you to call up only the drums, bass, strings and organs, or accompaniment voices as you need them. Each individual instrument is identical to its multi counterpart, offering the same effect section, sends and presets. A terrific way to focus on sound design, or simply add one or two layers to your production."

the SPACE CASE tape echo



Playlist:
1. SPACE CASE Tape Echo Demo Series - 3 - SYNTHS - Arpeggiation Character and Oscillation (Roland SH-101)
2. SPACE CASE Tape Echo Demo Series - 2 - DRUM MACHINES - Feedback Rhythms from Spaced Hits (brand new 808 and 909 samples by the venerable Samples from Mars in Brooklyn NY)
3. SPACE CASE Tape Echo Demo Series - 1 - VOCALS - Traditional Use and Explorations (Bob Marley solo vocal)

"The Space Case is a new tape echo for the modern vintage workflow. Each is hand made in limited batches in New York at The Center for Memory and Control. The machine operates at line level, and the sound can be described as being a combination between the original slap machines hooked up to consoles in the 50's (the original echo invention) and the classic Hi-Z devices from the 60's and 70's. It is inherently well suited for things like synthesizers, drum machines, and other unbalanced line level musical instruments and equipment. Hi-Z/Guitar and Balanced Line connectivity can be added (see features).

- Six time ranges
- a line level insert TRS jack for adding external processing of the echo/feedback path (i.e. using a synth or any other device to add resonance, more eq, and any other shaping you want)
- A time adjust knob for a wide sweep within each range
- Powerful feedback with plenty of self oscillation
- Echo tone
- Independent echo and dry output level
- Opamp overdrive at the output stage that can be applied to dry, echo, or any blend of both. (you can use the machine as a distortion unit with no tape/echo involved)
- Classic "playback and record" operation with speed differences. The machine is designed to be able to go down to near dead stop, so one can create extreme changes in analog tape fidelity and timing by recording at one speed and playing back in another. Feedback, tone, and speed/time can be performed live and recorded/played back with further tone and speed changes.
- A small loud speaker that is driven by the same opamp overdrive, effectively giving you a small but saturated and strong sounding "guitar amp" with whatever signal you're using
- A VU meter!
- 1/4" TS in and out
- Optional HI-Z/Guitar/Instr breakout pedal with a Crimson transformer, true bypass footswitch and a bonus DI function
- Optional transformer balanced XLR Line I/O with two Crimson transformers

Generative Music by Gibran Curtiss


Published on Apr 16, 2017 Gibran Curtiss

Playlist:

1. Generative music - part I

"Still an embryonic project of Generative Music in Arduino plataform and Midi protocol using simple biological algorithms to birth , growth, reproduction and death , together with locomotion and collision . This video was the result of one day of coding, so.... The 4 tempo was reduced to 1 to make a little short video. Long journey yet to come."

2. Generative Music - part II

"Second video of generative music project.
Arduino Uno replaced by Arduino Mega.
Arduino goes to USB MIDI interface, that goes to laptop running ableton driving 3 Midi channels.
The original algorithm was improved a lot and were added some controls to make intentional transitions.

Credits: Adam Kumpf for the core algorithm."

3. Generative music - part III

"Another sample with a generative music Arduino prototype."

4. Generative Music - part IV

"Another great step forward to my generetive music project.
These are the 2 major changes in project:
a)the first 3 videos I've made, the Arduino was connected to a laptop by MIDI. Now 2 full 5V CV OUTs available (3 at the moment I'm writing this) :-) provided by a DAC MCP4725
b)improvement into evolution algorithm allowing to choose to evolute or not each parameter individually. This way we can let the machine evolute by itself and then step in anytime to control the evolution.
Finally the unit is connected to a real modular synth!!! I'm very very really happy!!!!!!!!.
This video is a very simple path:
-one CV to a Qu-Bit Chord
-another CV to 4MS Spectral Multiband Resonator."

5. Generative Music V

"This is the 5th video of an Arduino Generative Music project. Finally a reasonable result. 4 midi channel / 4 CV outputs (0-5V). In this video only 2 channels used."

6. Generative Music Part VI

"This is the Part VI of the Generative Music project. A friend asked me to explore all 4 channels. So here it is. A lot better that last one video. But still a lot to improve on the next. Remember that this project is a SUPPORT tool to provide some melody, not make an entire song. Now the next goal is to attach a solar panel and some sensors : temperature , pressure, light, air humidity, soil humidity, wind velocity. All together and a little math will be able to make music according to weather variations including wake up and go to sleep. It will be an self sufficient being. Like a mini Frankenstein that makes music."

7. Generative Music part VII

"This time the fully functional prototype of the generative music module patched to the 4MS SMR passing thru a custom Spring Reverb.
One square wave oscillator with a fixed frequency feeding the 4MS input.
The final configuration of the module is :
-4 (0V to +5V) CV outs with buffered MCP4725 DACs.
-1 Trigger out with led indicator;
-parameter / value knobs to control the internal variables;

Again, some code improvements to do a better control over the note distribution to CVs.
The evolution of the generative module was locked this time just to play around with 4MS, basically, the same melody all the time but exploring the internal variations of the CVs.
Remember that the whole sound was played ONLY by the 4MS. No drum machines, no other modules."

8. Generative Music part VIII

"This time added a control to interval or cycle a group of 2,4,8,16,32 notes.
Unfortunately this project will be suspended for a while.
The effort now is to develop better melodies but I dont have much time exclusively to it.
Thank you!"

Dark Corridors - Modular Patch


Dark Corridors - Modular Patch from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

"This patch was built entirely around the Delptronics Trigger Man which is a unique trigger/gate sequencer module with a 8HP format. The idea was to take 8 different patterns consisting of 8 steps for each of the 8 outputs. Then run the trigger man in pattern play mode using the VC input to determine the currently playing pattern. The 8 patterns where programmed to flow into each other in sort of a quasi random string. Output one was sent to the Tiptop BD-808 kick drum. Channel 2 was sent to the Snazzy FX Ardcore triggering one custom snare sound created with a NordLead 2X, these sounds where imported into the "fac drums" Arduino sketch. This output was then ran into the Synthrotex Eko to provide flowing delay slap back effect to the snare sound. Channel three output was sent to the first channel of the 4ms QCD, running at the 6th knob position in divide mode, then sent to the trigger input on the Mutable Instruments Braids VCO running in "CLKN" mode using the "PIK" envelope setting to create a very short synthetic hi-hat sound. Channel 4 was sent to the external clock input on the MakeNoise WoggleBug which then triggered out the stepped random sequence into the 1volt into the intellijel shapeshifter, and also splitting the signal using stackable cable to the Macro Machines "Storage Strip" module that was controlling the program step modes to the Mungo d0 delay module. Input to the Mungo d0 was from the "DAC" output 2 from the Ardcore. Channel 5 was ran into the "Sync" input on channel one of the Modcan Dual delay. Another stackable cable going from channel 5 went into the 4ms SCM clock input. The drones are created using two sine outputs from the MakeNoise DPO. Sine output one is running into one MakeNoise Optomix with a slow rate LFO (intellijel Dixie) controlling the damping/contrl settings. This output is then sent into the Tiptop Z-DSP running the new Halls of Valhalla cartridge. The Reverb algorithm used in this patch is "Ginnungagap" for the atmospheric drones of the modulated FM sine waves. The second output from DPO is running into another Optomix with the another intellijel Dixie controlling the damping and CV-control settings, but with slower rate times. The output from this was then sent to the Strymon "Big Sky" reverb pedal running in "Chorale" mode for the vocal like resonant drones. Other sound sources used are the Intellijel Shapeshiter for the high end DSP-FM scatters, which is being triggered by the inverse out on the 4ms QCD expander. Next is the Modcan CV-Recorder playing back recorded noisy computer glitches being controlled by the Modcan Quad LFO which is being clocked by the channel one output on Trigger Man. The murky watery sounds came from the second Mutable instruments Braids oscillator running in "Cloud" mode into the channel input 1 of the Modcan Dual delay with lightly filtered position. The last sound source is the Qu-Bit Electronix Nebulae playing back a single shot 40 second sample in loop mode of sounds I created in a Reaktor patch. All signals routed into the Intellijel Mutamix and Steady State Fate- Mixmode. With 4 additional output being mixed into an Allen & Heath mixer. :-)"

Mode Machines ASID 64 in Violation of MIDIBox SID Licensing?

This one in via latigid. There is currently a thread on the MIDIBox forum discussing the new ASID64 or ASF-1 from Mode Machines shown at the Musikmesse as being in violation of the MIDIBox licensing agreement. You can see it currently listed on Touched By Sound's website for 1.495,00 € here. What's interesting is the unit first made an appearance during Winter NAMM as seen in this post but may have gone unnoticed until now.

Wilba at the forum who appears to represent MIDIBox states, "I already know about this, and I will comment more on it later."
Followed by TK: "The owner of Mode Machines replies in facebook:

Quote
'Michael Thorpe Hello - I don´t think you are getting the point here. We have not offered the unit furthermore we have only showed a possible version of it and we discussed this beforehand with the owner and designer and also are currently talking to them ...'


These statements are simply not true!

Some months ago we found a MIDIbox SID on the TBS product page. Nils contacted the company, explained the legal status (during a long phone call) and got the answer that they are not planning to sell the MIDIbox anymore. But it can still be found on their page, and now we saw it at Musikmesse as well.


Quote
'we discussed this beforehand with the owner and designer'


false, they never contacted me.

Quote
'and also are currently talking to them ...'


false, they are currently not talking to us (in distance: Nils had to pro-actively contact them some weeks ago and thought that this topic is clarified).
And I must say that I'm not interested to talk with profiteers with such attitude.
Especially since it seems that they have no experience with the MBSID hardware/software - who should support the customers?

Best Regards, Thorsten."

Followed by: "Since some months we consider to change to the TAPR Noncommercial Hardware License, which would allow everybody to build and sell up to 10 units in any 12 month period on a non-profit basis w/o need for a special permission from our side.
Without going too much into details (please open a new thread if you feel that this needs more discussion, but there will be a topic soon anyhow): this license would explicitly allow a professional or hobbyists to build and sell a MIDIbox to another user if he is only paid for his expenses (w/o profit)
It would also make it less complicated to resell a used MIDIbox, no special permission required from our side as long as the NCL isn't violated.

TBS violated the old license (no commercial use without my permission), and they would also violate the new license (e.g. by renaming the project and not mentioning the copyright holders - also the announced price of 1500 EUR somehow doesn't match with the "non-profit" term).

Btw: for the case that you are interested on a MB6582, check this fleamarket sale by Lucem:

Best Regards, Thorsten."

Barry Schrader, Morton Subotnick and John Payne - CalArts studio B-304


"The following flickr stream was from CalArts studio B-304 taken in the fall of 1976 featuring Barry Schrader, Morton Subotnick and John Payne and a whole lotta Buchla 500. John as you may remember came up a couple of months ago on Matrixsynth in the posting regarding Mort's use of the 300 at Ircam [link]. He went on in later years to become the Assistant Dean of the CIA School of Music and founder of it's Music Tech department. Photo b_304.2 has a good view of the entire studio, save the three other JBL's which are out of frame (it was a quad studio - there was one in each corner)."

Update: As always check the comments for more info.

via Peter:

"There are two more 500's that I know off - at Evergreen and another somewhere in Europe (pardon the senior moment, i don't remember where exactly). This is not to say there aren't others...I'm just not aware of any. The one in the photo here was the first - the development system Don constructed while on staff at CalArts. I do know the 500 was adondoned quickly and resurfaced as the 300 series which included direct routing of computer control the various modules (259 VCO and 292C Gate for example) -and- the digital VCOs."

"the box screwed into the side of the main cabinet is a speaker selector which i f i remember correctly wasn't on line. Another bit of trivia - this was taken about the time of Mort's Game Room project that Gary Chang, Jill Frazer, Darrell Johansen, Sue Harvey and I worked on. The room next to 304 (other side of the wall which is shown behind the Buchla) was 305. It had a large 100 system (three cabinets) and for the Game Room we cut a hole in the base of that wall to run audio cables out from the tape machines to play quad audio snippets into the game area. This also took signals directly from the game board in 305 where signals were decoded and sent to the various controllers (audio, film, Buchla-controlled OCR light dimmers, etc.).

Against the other wall - opposite the one behind the 500 - was studi oB-303, which was pretty much a duplicate of this one sans the computer control - so it was a 200 studio, not a 500 studio. It also had the huge JBL monitors which were hung form the ceiling on metal brackets made by Chas Smith (which are still in place today). There's a photo of 303 at Barry's Schrader's website: link

Most people preferred working in 303, mainly because the 258's were easier to get to. On the 500 system they were all on the top row, which was a pain for most. The upside - studio time was easy to book in 304 for this reason I spent a lot of the early mornings here - tarting usually at 4AM and going until classes began around 9."

via an anonymous comment:
"Evergreen has/had an early 300 its computer is non functional. There were 3 500s from what i understand, 1 went to Norway, 1 to a campus studio in NY and the 3rd was of course at CalArts..

the Norway one was moved around a lot as it was purchased by 2 or 3 studios/organizations and because of its fragile nature it didnt survive.. it was apparently parted out after it became nonfunctional.

The CalARTs system was also disassembled and parts were sold to various buyers around the US in the famouse 90's sale ..nobody is too sure what happened to the digial components..

the 3rd that was in NY was sold to a collector in the 90's, tho it should be noted that that system was returned to Buchla for upgrading/overhaul in the late 70's and was reassembled with 300 series components, so it is more of a 300 now then 500... I don't believe it has been tested or turned on in over a decade.

another note, there were 2 versions of the 300.. the early system used tech from the 500 (the gating matrix for example - which controlled early versions of the 281 and 292B gates - the remote function on later 281s and 292Cs was never implemented) the later 300s were more of a self contained system ( with 200 modules for processing ) which eventually became the Touché and the 400."

AE Modular Wavefolder Tutorial, Patch Tips, & Jam #TTNM


Published on Nov 29, 2018 The Tuesday Night Machines

Jam video further below.

"Here's a quick tutorial for the Tangible Waves AE Modular Wavefolder. MORE INFO AND PATCH TIPS BELOW =)

---------

PixelNoises Synth T-Shirts by The Tuesday Night Machines:
https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/pixeln...

---------

The AE Modular Wavefolder, based on a vintage circuit design also used by Ken Stone, takes a waveform and clips and folds it. This creates a more complex sounding waveform, of which you can of course modulate the parameters with CV too. In this video I also present a few patch tips, for this seemingly simple module. Let me know if you have an questions :-)

Patch tips:
- Create a sine wave from a square wave VCO running through a low pass filter with low cutoff frequency. For pitch sequencing, you might want to add a little bit of pitch CV to the filter cutoff control too, not just the VCO. This is often called “keyboard tracking” in non-modular synths’ filter settings, which makes sure that the filter opens up a little on higher notes. Otherwise, a constant cutoff will dull the sound of higher notes more than lower notes.

- Feedback: Patch the input signal (e.g. a triangle wave) in a mixer and the mixer output in the Wavefolder. Then patch one Wavefolder output back into another mixer input and slowly turn the mix knob up. For voltage control over the feedback, patch the Wavefolder output in a VCA and from there into the mixer. Modulate the VCA with an LFO, Envelope, Sample & Hold or Sequencer then. Feedback can get very crazy quickly, so start with low knob and modulation settings.

- Since the Wavefolder creates complex (harsh sounding) waveforms, you can send them through a filter to smooth them. As they are different than your standard square or sawtooth waves, they also sound different, and often more interesting, through filters.

- Try modulating the Wavefolder’s shape with its input signal, i.e. send the triangle or sine wave audio signal in the audio input and the CV input as well."

5 years genoQs Machines - Octopus DIVA


via genoQs

"It has been five short years since the launch of the magnificent Octopus and the start of genoQs Machines. What a story - and what better time to set another mark in the ground with an extraordinary machine: Octopus "Diva" -> PB_Octopus_Diva.pdf [mirror]

Limited to only five machines to be built, Diva features a massive slate frame, gold plated button groups,
and a brushed aluminum front panel. Diva represents a true monument of hardware sequencing and is probably the only electronic instrument built with stone and gold!

Furthermore, in celebration of our story of the five past years, and for a very limited period of time, we will grant a discount of 500EUR on orders of Nemo or Octopus (not applicable to Diva) received on 5.05.2010 and for the five weeks to follow.

Happy sequencing!"
