The XX Intro [Cover] Boutique / Microfreak / Volca

Micro Banshee

"The XX intro [Cover] The Korg Volca FM is used for the main part, this took a total of 12 slots on the FM to play all parts, switchng between the main part which was 8 parts and the second which was 4 parts, the tricky bit was trying to keep the FM in chain mode [and sync] when switching from the 8 to 4 [which is why I only did it once!] Some heavy reverb is added the FM from the Korg Mini KP 2.

As always the track is played 'live' in one take - with no DAW, editing or post production."

T6 - Roland Drumatix TR-06 / TB-03 / Volca FM / Volca Nubass

Micro Banshee

"TR-06 Drum Machine, along with the TB-03 and the Volca Nubass, which is likely to be the last time I use it [Nubass], this is the second unit and like the first it’s reluctant to stay in tune!

As always, the track is played 'live' in one take - with no DAW, editing or post production.

Don't Go [Cover -Sort of!] KO-33 / Korg Volca Drum / FM / Mix / Nubass

Micro Banshee

"Don't Go [Cover - Sort of!] This was originally uploaded to Instagram and was approx 1 minute in duration. I was going to do a longer version but lost some of the bass recordings on the Nubass.. [re-set to factory due to tuning issues] so another project bites the dust! anyhoo, I've edited the video to play x 2.. + two x sound FX and tried some extended character animation all via the InShot video editor.

Savage - Boutique's: SH-01A / TB-03 / TR-09 +

Micro Banshee

"The TB-03 and TR-09 are both utilising track write and play mode with the drums and bass programmed for the track duration. The two SH-01A's are playing several accompanying sequence's during the track - with FX from the Korg NTS-1, the MyVolts mickXer is used for the input of the two SH-01A's and the Zoom H1 is being used as a pre-amp for the mickXer.

The PO-33 is direct to mix in on the TB-03, the TB-03 is direct to mix in the TR-09, with the Korg mini KP-2 adding a little reverb onto both of these.

Everything is input to both channels on the Tascam DP-004 recorder.

Music by Vince Clarke, Sung by Alison Moyet, all I can find on the web is a couple of 40+ second videos of this track, I thought it was deserving enough to be fleshed out a little...

Chinese Detectives [Cover] Behringer PRO-1 / Roland MC-101 / Roland JU-06A

Published on Nov 17, 2019 Micro Banshee

"A Behringer Pro-1 & Roland MC -101 Version of Yazoo's 'Chinese Detectives'

I can't find a lot of information about this little known Yazoo track other than I remember it being played when I went to see Yazoo live in 1982 [Newcastle City Hall] During the track being played Vince was playing around with a video camera filming audience members and displaying the footage on a large screen above the stage.

I did find the following reference from an online Yazoo fan site:

'This song was only refered to as China and it eventually became I Before E Except After C, stripped back to the drumtrack...'

As far as I know this track was never officially released.

"The myVolts mickXer is a 5-way passive mixer with five stereo input channels and one stereo output channel, each with a 1/8" (3.5mm) connection. It gives a high-quality, balanced, noise-reduced output, suitable for recording or live setups.

With the mickXer, you can mix five stereo inputs down to one stereo output. You can, of course, just use just one, two, three or four of the inputs in any configuration that suits your setup.

Please note that the mickXer is not intended as a standalone device and should be connected to either a recorder or amplification device, such as an amp, speakers, or powered headphones.

mickXer works great with any music gear: Korg Volcas, Roland Boutiques, Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators and thousands more
mickXer contains noise filtering technology, removing irritating ground loop hums and other noises. It’s the perfect accessory if you experience any noise using the myVolts Korg Volca 5-way power splitter or myVolts Roland Boutique 5-way power splitter
mickXer is fully passive, so doesn’t need a power supply, or batteries
Microsuction feet let mickXer stick securely but impermanently to almost any surface, while allowing it to be moved and restuck to any surface without leaving any stickiness or residue behind.
Multiple mickXers can be daisy chained, so the possibilities for the ingenuitive desktop musician are limitless
mickXer will also work as an audio signal splitter, but do be aware that amplification is required to drive headphones
mickXer is fully safety and quality tested: it’s CE-certified, RoHS-certified, FCC-certified, EMC-tested
mickXer comes in two colours – Console Black or Go-Faster Red.

Impulsive Grace - KORG Gadget 2

Published on Aug 12, 2019 Micro Banshee

"A slight deviation from my regular 'hardware only' uploads - and as those uploads seem to mean very little to anyone these days...

I decided to take advantage of the half-price sale for Korg Gadget and related products [until Aug 31st]

After downloading the free Gadget 2 demo for iOS, I downloaded the full version and several of the 'Gadgets' on offer

This is the first track, a mix of live play and some sample shots, hope you enjoy it.

All audio and video editing in this track was recorded on my iPad.
