Sparkly Eurorack Modular Synth Jam (w/ Benjolin & MicroBrute) #TTNM

Published on Dec 9, 2014 The Tuesday Night Machines

"In this video the Klangbau Benjolin is set to a repeating pattern. It plays itself and clocks the Ladik S-030 Clockdivider and MicroBrute. The S-030 creates drum sounds, by pinging the Klangbau qVCF and by using two Ladik VCA's to sound the Klangbau XR-VCO (Bass Drum sound and that pulse wave sound at the end). The MicroBrute plays two sequences with its internal sequencer.

Audio gear used:
- Eurorack Modular Synthesizer (with Klangbau Köln / Rob Hordijk Benjolin, XR-VCO, Tube/Röhren VCA, Ladik S-030 Clockworks, etc. see: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...)
- Arturia MicroBrute (analog synthesizer)
- Zoom R16 (recording & mastering)

Filmed with a GoPro Hero 4 Silver."

Birabuto Kingdom - Super Mario Land Cover on Modular Synth & Volca Beats #TTNM

Published on Oct 7, 2014 The Tuesday Night Machines

"Eurorack Modular Synthesizer & Volca Beats cover of "Birabuto Kingdom Theme" by Hiro Tanaka (Super Mario Land GameBoy chiptune soundtrack).

I arranged the score as two MIDI tracks in Ableton Live, based on the ragtime version of Keeper1st and the according MIDI file, created by PlayMidi.

- Keeper1st's video with Tom Brier's amazing ragtime sight-reading:
