"Here's a slightly more dramatic video- a face off between the Elements Synthesizer and the MacBeth MK1 Monster 5U Modular Synthesizer! The keyboard and modulation functions are driving the bottom row of the Mk1 Modular - that is (including the Elements synthesizer) 6 audio oscillators. The Elements Spring Reverberator is well active here too....! The row above on the Mk1 is another 3 Oscillators/Mixer/Filter/EGs etc and that is being driven in a percussive way froma Korg SQ-10 Voltage Controlled sequencer...watch out for one of my (own) x-series modules fly out of the rack I'm at as I bash away! I wasn't screwed in- and it made a soft landing! As mentioned in previous videos- the Elements Synthesizer is available for pre-order from Analogue Haven/Schneiders'/Alex4 and Awave! THings should be out in June!"

"Here's a short burst of arpeggiated sound coming from the MacBeth Elements synthesizer.....for me, it's a familiar sound from some of my favourite Brit records from the seventies! It's a short burst- and the demo is called VIDEO4 (A) as my darned cam battery ran out out of charge! I'll do 4 (B) shortly....but this gives you another taste of things coming!"
MacBeth VIDEO5: Elements Synth- Spring Reverberation- Send/Return
Published on Apr 9, 2014 macbethsynthesizers·110 videos
"This VIDEO5 of the Macbeth Elements synthesizer! Here I explore some of the qualities of the deep Spring Line Reverberator that come with the synth- there is a Send/Recieve to the Spring Line Tank- it's not just the Spring line that you can attach to the Elements- as was suggested to me at the Frankfurt Musik Messe- why not use other things too......towards the end of this video- I've connected a Yamaha RX50 that I dug out to experiment with. I use pitch shifting and echo! The best part of the Spring Line unit circuit that I've done- is that it is practically, noise free!"
MacBeth Elements Synthesizer VIDEO6: Look North.

"This is my Sixth video of the Elements Synthesizer which features the 'Send/Return' Jack on the back! I've coupled once again the somewhat ancient Yamaha RX-50 effector that I have here. Also used- a Korg Sq-10 sequencer and some of the MacBeth Mk1 5U modular units...I wanted to record this as I was pretty blown away by the hugeness of sound! Again- whilst plying the Elements- it's the control/tactile feel of the larger controls that makes this thing very instrumental/mental!"
VIDEO7: DRONE- LIKE! MacBeth Elements Synthesizer
Published on Apr 14, 2014 macbethsynthesizers·112 videos
"I recently got asked to do a drone-like video of the Elements Synthesizer.....! So, here I go- can't keep my hands off the synth though! Also included- some sample and hold from the Mk1 Modular....again, I've put the vintage Yamaha RX-50 in the effects loop instead of the Spring Reverberastion Tank!....and indeed, that curatain needs fixed!"
