♫ Jamming With a Bunch of Synths ♫ ----- (79)

"This jam is a little weird. My phone was on low battery which made the video slightly glitchy. I was a bit distracted during this recording so it's maybe a bit more boring than usual. There is also a couple mysterious audio drop outs near the end of the video. I didn't notice these prior to uploading so it's possible something went wrong when combining the audio and video files or something.

Prophet-6, a winner's heritage / la herencia de un ganador

In the purest style of Dave Smith, Prophet-6 is a tribute to the classic polysynth of the 80s, but elevated to the category of electronic instrument of the 21st century, "the result of our effort to build the modern analog polysynth with the most incredible sound", in the words of the great designer.

The Sequential Circuits Prophet-6 synthesizer retains the best details of the vintage Prophet-5 - truly analog VCOs, filters and VCAs - and enriches them with advanced effects, a polyphonic step sequencer and other goodies.

[ESP] Al más puro estilo de Dave Smith, Prophet-6 es un homenaje del clásico polisinte de los 80, pero elevado a la categoría de instrumento electrónico del siglo XXI, "el resultado de nuestro esfuerzo para construir el polisinte analógico moderno con el sonido más increíble", según las palabras del gran diseñador.

El sintetizador Sequential Circuits Prophet-6 conserva los mejores detalles del clásico añejo Prophet-5 -VCOs, filtros y VCAs auténticamente analógicos-, y los enriquece con efectos avanzados, un secuenciador polifónico por pasos y otras bondades.

Oberheim & Sequential OB-6: Analog power on every side / potencia analógica por los cuatro costados

Developed in direct collaboration with Tom Oberheim, OB-6 takes its inspiration from this master's original designs to deliver "authentic vintage SEM tones with the stability and flexibility of modern technology".

The OB-6 architecture integrates two oscillators per voice plus a sub-oscillator, with saw, variable pulse and triangular waveforms (this only in OSC-2) – all of them continuously variable for greater harmonic diversity. Each voice passes through a 12dB multimode filter (with low-pass, -high, -band, and band-reject responses), inspired by the original SEM circuits. And of course, the analog route is completed with Voltage Controlled Amplifiers (VCA).

[ESP] Desarrollado con la colaboración directa de Tom Oberheim, OB-6 toma su inspiración en los diseños originales de este maestro para ofrecer "auténticos tonos añejos SEM con la estabilidad y flexibilidad de la tecnología moderna".

La arquitectura de OB-6 integra dos osciladores por voz más un sub-oscilador, con formas de onda sierra, pulso variable y triangular (ésta sólo en OSC-2) –todas ellas continuamente variables para una mayor diversidad armónica. Cada voz atraviesa un filtro multimodo de 12dB (con respuestas paso-bajo, -alto, -banda y -banda eliminada), inspirado en los circuitos SEM originales. Y por descontado, la ruta analógica se completa con Amplificadores Controlados por Tensión (VCA).

Trigon-6, the analog polysynth with three VCOs and ladder filter that excited Dave Smith
Trigon-6, el polisinte analógico con tres VCO y filtro en escalera que entusiasmó a Dave Smith

Sequential Trigon-6 adds a unique stamp to the timeless sound of its family, with feedback, overdrive, and an innovative two-pole mode (12dB drop) over the ladder filter, "for greater versatility and width in your palette of tones". Its filter design is an evolution of the circuitry included in the successful Pro 3 synthesizer.

[ESP] Sequential Trigon-6 añade un sello único al sonido atemporal de su familia, con realimentación, saturación, y un innovador modo de dos polos (caída de 12dB) sobre el filtro en escalera, "para obtener una mayor versatilidad y amplitud en su paleta de tonos". Su diseño de filtro es una evolución de la circuitería incluida en el exitoso sintetizador Pro 3."

Thief (1981) complete "Igneous" scene (music by TD)

"The whole scene of Thief (1981) with TD's re-edition of 'Thru Metamorphic Rocks' theme, renamed as 'Igneous' in the OST release.
The film version is by far more extensive than Thief CD version.
Enjoy that sequence !"

TD = Tangerine Dream.
