Spectravox | Traditional Vocoding & Vocoder Processing

video upload by Moog Music

"In this video we explore how to use Spectravox in Vocoder mode to process vocals.
We begin by hooking up a dynamic microphone (in this case the Shure SM58) to the program input and adjusting the preamplifier gain to an appropriate level. This allows us to create classic analog vocoder sounds with our voice and Spectravox’s internal carrier oscillator and white noise generator. We next look at how to use the program envelope follower and an attenuator to increase the intelligibility of Spectravox and capture the dynamics of our voice. Finally, we connect Matriarch to the carrier input of Spectravox to be able to vocode chords and polyphonic material with our voice."

Spectravox | Vocoder Processing

"In this video we explore how to use Spectravox in Vocoder mode to vocode a drum machine.

By using a drum machine (in this video the Roland TR-606) in place of a microphone as the program input to a vocoder, we can map the rhythmic and tonal information of that drum machine on to Spectravox’s carrier oscillator and white noise generator. Spectravox’s Spectral Shift function allows you to move all of the filters up and down while resonance will impart more colorful and metallic tones. In this video we look further at how to use the filter bank patch bay to rearrange the envelope follower outputs and control voltage inputs of the two filter banks inside Spectravox to scramble the frequency spectrum. We also look at how all those inputs and outputs can be combined with the additional patch points on Spectravox for creative and interesting modulation."

"A video where I wanted to use my non-eurorack synthesizers, the Moog Matriarch and the Sequential Prophet 6(desktop version). Mostly in order to just explore them more since I almost always lean into my eurorack system whenever I want to make music. This was a great exercise!"

"Time Intertwines" Arturia Microfreak, Minifreak, Moog Matriarch, AudioThing Noises

video upload by Vöstok-one

"Time Intertwines,

In the morning’s chill, in the evening’s light,
Each step a stride towards hope’s height,
On the shores of the lake, where time intertwines,
Where the world’s beauty ever shines.

May the wind carry our fleeting fears away,
And may the lake whisper in our ears,
The secrets of dreams yet to be found,
On the path to tomorrow’s hallowed ground.

I hope you will enjoy this song as much as I had fun playing it."

video upload by Vöstok-one

"When the Arturia Microfreak drives the Moog DFAM. That gives you something more musical than just a groove machine. So much to explore with this Moog if you take time with it.

This electronic symphony reminds me this strange landscape we found lost in the middle of Mongolia.The specter of a lost serenity, absorbed by the sky.

I hope you will enjoy this song as much as I had fun playing it."

"Secret Softly Sigh" Moog Matriarch, AudioThing Noises, Arturia Minifreak, DSI MophoX4

video upload by Vöstok-one

"Ambient and cinematic, drop into the black sand shore of mystery.
Moog Matriarch Lamentation and Audiothing Noises for the strange and mystic feeling. The Arturia Minifreak for this ... I don't know ... chord generative and the Mopho X4 for the pad.
Have fun with this almost 10 minutes of dark drone endless reverie shadows dance.

Verse 1)
Upon the blackened shores, where whispers roam,
Where windswept tales are carved in ancient stone.
In the misty veil, secrets softly sigh,
Beneath the northern sky, where dreams can fly.

(Chorus)
Black sands beneath my feet,
In Iceland’s embrace, where mysteries meet.
Where the wind’s wild song entwines with the sea,
In this land of endless reverie.

(Verse 2)
Through the veils of fog, a world unseen,
Where shadows dance and memories convene.
In the echo of waves, a melody untold,
In the heart of nature, where stories unfold.

(Chorus)
Black sands beneath my feet,
In Iceland’s embrace, where mysteries meet.
Where the wind’s wild song entwines with the sea,
In this land of endless reverie.

(Bridge)
In the depths of the night, where stars ignite,
In the soul of Iceland, where magic takes flight.
Through the misty morn, the secrets call,
In this timeless land, where wonders enthrall.

(Chorus)
Black sands beneath my feet,
In Iceland’s embrace, where mysteries meet.
Where the wind’s wild song entwines with the sea,
In this land of endless reverie.

(Outro)
In the whispers of the wind, I find my song,
In Iceland’s embrace, where I belong.
Forever bound to this ancient land,

I hope you will enjoy this song as much as I had fun playing it."

Korg Monologue & Chase Bliss Mood Mk2 // End of the year!

video upload by Dexba

"I got a bit emotional, with my internal (and external) Monologue, both the instrument and the thoughts.
Plus, since 2023 has been very frustrating in all of its parts, even this video has been compromised by everything that could go wrong: dead batteries, bugs in the Mood (first time ever), the camera shut itself off in some other recordings, and so on.
Two years ago I was playing with a $2000 Moog Matriarch going into a $1.100 CXM1978, now I am running a $200 Korg Monologue through a $400 Mood Mk2, and I am ultimately sad that everything around me seems to be turning into dust, but I am still here, and music is still by my side, and judging from the result, seems like once again music is still the most empathetic and sympathetic friend I have.
I hope you'll enjoy it! And spend some time with your loved ones 🧡"
