One Synth One Song: Novation Summit

video upload by Mattias Holmgren

"Welcome to one synth & one song, a new series where we make beats / songs with one selected instrument for each episode. Today we're using the Novation Summit synth to create a little beat.
I've had the Summit for two years now and it's always a pleasure to discover it's potential and sound sculpting.

Analog and digital realms meet and fuse."

Novation Summit - A playing attempt at Brian Crain's "Imagining"

Playlist:
Novation Summit - A playing attempt at Brian Crain's "Imagining"

One of my favorite piano artists Brian Crain, his song 'Imagining' attempting to play it. IIt definitely takes some muscle memory, but I love this song, love to hear it sound on the Summit.

Novation Summit - "Morning Stroll" SM Plucked Keys

Took a walk outside with the family in our new neighborhood... beautiful sunny day. Much to be thankful for. a short inspirational piece from that played here. I hope wherever you are you will find an enjoyable stroll for yourself.

Novation Summit - SM Plucked Keys (Orano patch) - "Pirate's Beach"

Could pass for a guitar sound, do you think? Credit to Orano's patch again, some reverb from the flashback and hall of fame, subtle reverb and delay on the Summit, I know I know.. why not just use one or the other. Well, it's convenient to alternate, the HoF and FB pedals are primarily not adjusted as it's also sent thru my mixer as an FX channel for other instruments. Enjoy.

Novation Summit - "Aisle" - Multi Mode - 1. SM 5th Sense 2. Sm Who's Afraid (Orano's single patches)

Credit to Orano's Novation Summit single patches, I split them in multi mode, as you'll usually see me do. In this improvisation I'm playing with the delay timing effects on the #2 patch while playing pad on the #1. The onboard delay and reverb effects gives instant breaths for your creative atmospheres.

Novation Summit - "Crystal Falls" Multi Setting (SM Leviathan and SM Popcorn Arp)

Patch creation credit to Orano Music @ https://www.orano.co.uk/shop. Just having fun with blending his patches, very lush and enjoyable, highly recommended!

Novation Summit - SM Leviathan (patch Created by Orano Music)

This patch (along with many others) was created by Orano Music

Novation Summit - "Legendary Keys" - Solo Piano - Multi Mode

I like taking the same single patch and splitting them between both the A and B sections. There are a few minor tweaks between the two sections of course, the A section I'll use for solo piano playing with some slight filter manipulations while the B section is mainly conducting the arp in the play tick on the arp knob, this basically follows the key strokes and does a catch up, so to say, as there is also delay and feedback being added for dynamic effect. I like being able to create an immersivity effect to keep me going in my solo playing. The Summit never fails to conveniently produce this very basic task.

Since OBS has fixed their NDI plugin, it's less work around for me to set up these recordings again. Thanks for listening. appreciate any comments or tips for solo piano playing and any other recommendations to help me along this Summit playing journey.

Prophet REV2 - Harsh? Bland? Static? Lifeless? - Really??

video upload by Orano Music

Note Orano Music has done demos for the Sequential OB-6, OB-X8, Prophet-6, Prophet-5/10, and Trigon-6, as well as the Novation Summit and Moog One as seen in previous posts here.

"I have read so many reviews about the REV2 being too 'static', 'lifeless', 'harsh' 'Brittle' and so on...

The REV2 is an extremely capable synth, and with some careful programming can compete with the best of them.

This Patch has no effects, nothing, it is completely dry. and to me sounds very organic, full of character, and very analog indeed. This was not using any analog modelling techniques, doesn't use the step sequencer for variants. which if used would make it sound even more analog! (if that's possible)

in a nutshell, the REV2 requires some work to achieve the same results as you would get from its upper range counterparts, but talk about value for money, this synth is very impressive!

if in doubt, grab one!

Custom REV2 Patches will be available soon at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop

enjoy!
Scott."

Jam - Novation Summit - Exploring Split Mode #notalking #synthesizer

video upload by HansiLa

"A one-take jam with the Novation Summit in split mode.

Whipping something quick with a latched arp on part B and messing around with notes on part A. There may need to be a longer part 2 as there's some fun to be had with the onboard effects and mod matrix. Despite just scratching the surface, I love how easy and quick it is to drum up great sounds on this synth.

As always, the goal with multiple synths on this channel is to see how each instrument sounds with the other and to improve my key and programming chops. With that in mind... there is minimal processing of these sounds. There's no compression or EQ on this piece."

Melodic Techno for Novation Peak/Summit

video upload by NatLife Sounds

"Link! = https://www.natlifesounds.com/product...

NatLife Sounds presents you with a Melodic Techno for Novation Peak & Summit synthesizers. It is an absolute thriller bank with very thematic sounds in it.

These are the sounds of the Techno Melodic worked out to the smallest details. For this, almost all the features of the Novation Peak synthesizer, also added in the latest update of the synthesizer firmware 2.1, were used.

You will find here harmonized Leads and Basses which are just perfect for Melodic Techno music. Deep and atmospheric Pads, harsh FXs, beautiful melodic Plucks, Keys, Synth sounds and of course immersed Arpedgios.

Since modern Melodic Techno music is very closely intersected in all respects with Progressive Trance, these sounds will also be great for this style of music.

The sounds in the bank have 2 Animated buttons, which can change every preset in very different ways, for getting more incredible patches. So it means that one preset can sound like arpeggios or drum loops at the same time, and the Lead can sound like Bass just with one Animate knob. Also, every patch has a ModWheel setting, so you can fastly use it just from a box.

Soundbank contains 50 Novation Peak/Summit presets, which are:

21 Bass sounds
3 Drum Arp and FX's
7 FX's
3 Leads
7 ARP's
3 PAD
3 Keys
5 Synth sounds"
