Oldschool Reel To Reel House Jam

YouTube via snolan1990
"I recommend you watch in high quality for the best possible audio.

This is a jam to test out my newest toys the Roland JX-3P synthesizer, the Roland JSQ-60 sequencer and the Teac A 4300SX that I was given in Florida (Thanks Madge!). This is by no means a finished track but it's the basic idea for one and I might put the time in and make a full track of it.

For the gear nerds out there

Synth - Roland JX-3P & Juno-60
Drums - Roland TR-707, TR-727, MC-303 (kick) as well as Casio RZ-1 for its sweet cowbell and claps
Samples - SP-808
Sequencer - Roland JSQ-60

There is 4 types of sync working together here Din (from the JSQ to the 7x7s) MIDI (from the 7x7s to the MC-303 & RZ-1) trigger signal (from the 727 to the JX-3P's sequencer) and DCB (from the JSQ to the Juno)"

Filter House Jam #1

"This is just a quick demo of something I am working on that I would like your opinion and advice on, I have the basics there but I'm not sure what to do next. I was thinking maybe a cut up spoken word style vocal and eventually multi tracking some proper Juno bass or pads on top of it but any and all advice and opinion would be welcome.

For those of you into the hardware side of things here the SP-808 is master with a sequence of samples sitting in it. The TR-727 is slaved to the SP-808 and the TR-707 is slaved to the TR-727. The Juno is has Hold & the Arpeggio on with the 707's Rim triggering the steps. The patch on the Juno is a mixture of the two recommended Percussion sound patches in the Juno-60 manual and the eagle eyed among you may have spotted that the square, saw and sub osc are all off and the sound is generated entirely by self resonance in the VCF."

Synhouse MIDIJack DINSynth

via Synhouse

"The Synhouse MIDIJACK DINSYNC is designed specifically for Roland x0x DIN sync machines (also known as sync 24). It receives MIDI start messages, MIDI stop messages, and MIDI timing clocks, allowing you to synchronize those techno classics to your PC or Mac software MIDI sequencer or other hardware MIDI sequencer. It does not receive MIDI notes. A lot of techno musicians believe that there is something about the quirkiness of the drum / bass sequencing on a TR-808 and the programmed accents and slides on a 303 that simply cannot be duplicated on a MIDI sequencer. With the properly installed MIDIJACK DINSYNC on those machines, they can run alongside your MIDI tracks in perfect sync. The MIDIJACK DINSYNC is designed to be compatible with the following machines:

Roland SH-101 *
Roland MC-202 Microcomposer
Roland TB-303 Bassline
Roland TR-606 Drumatix
Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer
Roland CompuRhythm CR-78 *
Roland CompuRhythm CR-8000 *
(It also includes the TR-707, TR-727, and TR-909 but they already have MIDI).

* The MIDIJACK DINSYNC is designed to be compatible with these machines but Synhouse has not yet had the opportunity to do a test installation on them. It may have been tested by someone in the field unknown to Synhouse. "

Update via ComputerControlled in the comments: "Actually, the 707 does NOT feature sounds from the 909. This is a myth."

"BACK IN 1989 I HAD A ROLAND TR-707 ...POOR MAN'S VERSION OF THE 909,BUT AS YOU MAY KNOW IT DID FEATURE A FEW SOUNDS FROM THE 909, AND THE SOUND OF DETROIT TECHNO USED THE 707/727 & OF COURSE THE 909

ANYWAY UNFORTUNATELY SOME PUNK BROKE INTO MY STUDIO AND STOLE MY 707 & ALL MY OTHER KIT :(
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO REPLACE IT BUT (DUE TO HIGH PRICES) NEVER GOT ROUND TO IT !

BUT THANKS TO ROLAND, THE 7X7 EXPANSION FOR TR8 IS WICKED!

NAMM 2009 -Diabolical Devices TR-707

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"Who would have thought that twenty-some years later the Roland TR-707 would be back at the NAMM show? We're guessing nobody did until they saw the Diabolical Devices circuit mangled TR-707 at our booth. The Diabolical 707 has a pitch control for every sound, various distortion and bit-squashing bends and a patch bay. The 707's patch bay can interact with other things like the Diabolical Devices circuit bent SK-1 or any of your CV-able gear. The great thing is that the original 707 sounds are still intact and can be completely brought back to stock. You can use it as a MIDI module too! Stay tuned for more demos from Sherman, Dirty Boy Pedals, Signal Arts and more. "

BCM Welcomes Diabolical Devices and Class A Electronics

http://bigcitymusic.com
via the Big City Music blog
"We're very very excited to offer instruments from Diabolical Devices and their sister company Class A Electronics. Diabolical takes instruments like the Roland TR-707 drum machine, the Casio SK-1 and others and modifies them. Whether it's a pitch mod for every drum sound, or a banana plug patch bay for different bends, or an added LFO, these pieces come back from the dead!

Here's a picture of a circuit bent TR-7027. This is a Roland TR-707 that also has the sounds from a Roland TR-727. You can switch back and forth. All the drum sounds have pitch mods with knobs to control the bends. They also have three separate global bends and a cymbal delay bend. On the left there's a banana plug patch bay allowing you to link several bends at once creating some truly unique sounds.

Class A Electronics makes some incredible guitar pedals as well as small wattage tube amplifiers and more. Check back with us soon for the latest from these guys!"

Demo of Elektron Analog Four, Roland TR-707, by Jordan Passmore

Published on Feb 22, 2013 Jordan Passmore·47 videos

"This demo is of the Elektron Analog Four, a four voice analog synthesizer/sequencer and the Roland TR-707 drum machine. The Elektron is doing all the tones here and of course, the 707 is playing the drums. In terms of effects, there is a slight bit of analog delay and chorus on the 707's snare. Otherwise, all effects used are the ones built into the Elektron (it's reverb and delay were used on this project). The mixer is an Alto AMX-220. The master of that was then sent to an Electra EQ, then finally to my soundcard. No post-processing, compression, etc was used.

I am having lots of fun with the Analog Four. It excels very well as modulated and filtered textures. It sounds very different than other analog synths I have owned in the past and the sequencer is (of course) fantastic. All tones here were programmed by me."

Vintage Tonic

Magnus Lidström

"We have developed a machine-learning algorithm that generates synth sounds from audio samples. To put this algorithm to the test we created Vintage Tonic: a recreation of ten legendary drum machines for Microtonic.

Read more about it here: https://soniccharge.com/forum/topic/1...

Download the patches from: https://soniccharge.com/download"

Some additional info:

"Vintage Tonic is a patch package for Microtonic created from recordings of the following classic drum machines:

Maestro Rhythm King (1960)
Keio / Korg Minipops 7 (1966)
Roland CR-78 CompuRhythm (1978)
Korg KR-55 (1979)
Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer (1980)
Oberheim DMX (1981)
Linn Drum (1982)
Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer (1984)
Roland TR-707 Rhythm Composer (1984)
Roland TR-505 Rhythm Composer (1986)

Notice that the collection includes both analog and digital drum machines. Naturally, the digital drum machines are much harder to reproduce using Microtonic's synthesizer engine, but even imperfect results are fun, and I find the sounds quite useful.

The older drum machines were mainly preset pattern players. I have painstakingly tried to reproduce not only their sounds but also all of their original patterns."
