rare birds: Echolette SE-251 tape echo unit

video upload by ohm_studi_ohm

"This is quite a rare tape echo manufactured by Dynacord. It seems to be one of the very last tape echo introduced by the brand (with the Echolette Echo 400).

It shares many parts with the Echocord line of delays like motor, pinch roller, heads, oscillator board etc But this one useS op amps instead of only transistors for amp stages (the Echocord Super 76 also already used one op amp for the output stage).

The unit has 2 heads which you can mix with the dedicated pot. Otherwise classic features like input volume, tone, echo send level, echo feedback and echo level.

In the back the original DIN socket enabled output and aux input. In this case you only get the wet signal out of the delay, which is nice in a studio environment.

Unit was fully serviced and modded. [mods below]

I demoed it with 3 different instruments so you get a good idea of how it sounds with different sources. First is a Roland MC-202, analog mono synth, then an analog drum machine (Roland CR-78) and last an electric guitar (Squier Jagmaster, not in frame). Please note the SE-251 has no hi input impedance so I run the guitar through a DI Box first.

00:00 ROLAND MC202
03:18 ROLAND CR78
06:16 SQUIER JAGMASTER"

via this listing

"Unit was fully serviced and modded:

- all electrolityc caps were replaced (except 3 bipolar ones )

- original 4x op amps were upgraded to better one (TL081)

- original DIN socket was replaced by 2 jack sockets, one for the output and one for the aux input. Also a pot was added to attenuate the level for the aux input

- unit was meticulously cleaned

- heads were cleaned, demagnetized and aligned

- unit was calibrated

- tape is new"

A Tinge of Optimism To Light Your Way | Sequential Take 5

"No additional processing. Take 5 into the Blackhole. Another Rendezvous of a custom patch I have created. This is quite an underrated poly synth, and I have owned some rather massive ones, might I add. This feels no less the machine."

A Tale of Prophets | Take 5 + Prophet 6

"Have been truly enjoying layering pads on my new Take 5 on a borrowed Prophet 6. Sent through the Eventide Blackhole pedal. It's all glorious. Grandmother and Mother-32 are providing the spookyish motor (through the Spring Reverb!)"

Floyd Steinberg: This is the last video on this channel...

video upload by Floyd Steinberg

"... in 2023. Thanks for all your support, and I'll be back with new energy and interesting projects next year. Have a good new year and may all your plans and dreams come true. ;-)

This improvisation is based on Zynthian, which was one of the many pleasant surprises '23 had in store. It's sequencing 8 plugins and Motor Synth. Also acting as effects unit for the Dreadbox. Both synths are connected to Zynthians audio inputs.

Drone Music | Maths + Morphagene + DPO = Motor Synth

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I saw the Gamechanger Audio Motor Synth MK II on the Erica booth at Dutch Modular Fest and I was intrigued by the sound and the mechanics of eight precision drone engines. Unfortunately I can't justify a purchase due to price and my focus on Eurorack. But that sound... So I was inspired to try to make something similar with a clever envelope, a complex oscillator and a drone engine sample. I am using Maths, DPO and Morphagene, but any combo of an ADSR, growling VCO and sample player with pitch CV would work.

This video basically covers the fun of combining a VCO with a Sample and mult pitch to both of them. It will open up a weatlh of new sounds you've never heard before, but offer a new level of complexity and awe.

I guess you can see this as Shared System Tutorials episode 45 too. So the series goes on, but the thumbnails are no longer directly tied to the series."

Gamechanger Motor Synth MKII - Sonic LAB Presentation

video upload by sonicstate

"The @GamechangerAudio Motor Synth MKII is an interesting instrument. One we've known about for some time, but only really heard it do dirty and aggressive sounds. In this presentation, we explore some of the features and also hear some of its sweeter side.
At its heart are 8 drone grade brushless motors that generate the oscillators - for up to four voices. There's a pair of analog filters, a third DCO, envelopes, sequencer, arpeggiator and CV control with a comprehensive mod matrix. Its a most unusual instrument.

2. Synthfest UK 2023: Calc And the Prophet X

At Synthfest UK 2023, we caught up with Calc from Sequential, and he gave us the lowdown on the Prophet X. Now, you might be thinking, Prophet X? Haven't we seen that before? Well, you're right, but this hybrid instrument has been quietly making waves in the music world. It combines digital and analog elements, with digital oscillators and a unique twist in the form of multi-sample-based instruments. Yes, you heard that right, it's not just your run-of-the-mill synth; it's a full-on sampler too, boasting an impressive 50 gigabytes of memory for your custom samples. You can treat it like a rompler, a sample player, or even use those samples as oscillators, creating a whole new realm of sonic possibilities.

Plus, it's packed with stereo goodness, allowing you to explore a wide soundstage with ease. It's not your typical synth, and that's what makes its a favourute of Calc's
