Leonard de Leonard Dawless Techno Live in Sound Provider Studio For Techno Elevation OnLine Festival

video by Sound Provider

"Dawless Techno Jam / Live from Leonard de Leonard from the Sound Provider Studio/ Berlin for "Techno Is Our Life": Techno Elevation On Line Festival.
It always fun to do Studio session like that, it's easier to choose the gear you ll use when you work on your Studio rather than choosing the one that will fit in the suitcase when we have to take the plane 😊.(even if playing in front of IRL dancers is much much better)
Lot of improvisation here , so no "real tracks" already release, if you like some parts tell me in the comment with the timing,maybe I'll try to make some songs around these parts.

Noticeable Gear I use here:
Drums and Percussions come from Native Instruments Maschine Plus, Modor DR 2 Digital Drum Machine and Eurorack modules and Patch
Synth bass and arp come from Novation Circuit Mono Station Analog Synth and most of the time from Modular Synthesizer (lot of Roland/Intellijel/Noise Engineering...)
Live Sequence from Toraiz Squid, Metropolis, Grids, Circuit , Maschine Plus Modor..."

Testing quick Techno Analog Clap Feat Vermona Drm1 Mk3 eventide H9 and Yamaha E1010 delay

Published on Oct 14, 2019 Sound Provider

"Setting a Clap:

For the mix of one of the future Techno release of La Fraicheur and Leonard de Leonard project, Leonard is recording a layer of Vermona Drm1Mk3 clap through Eventide H9 reverb and old yamaha E1010 Analog Delay (we love to clip this machine) via gs3000 Allen and Heath Console.

For final version We ll put little less decay on the reverb and little longer delay on the E1010, we will also fine tune result with additional EQ and compressor .

Sorry also for the not crazy record quality , I use a Roland Go mixer pro directly from the studio out of the console."

One more with the Hihat:

Quick Techno Hihat mix feat Eventide H9 Reverb Yamaha E1010 Delay & Ibanez UE400 Disto & Phaser


"In this video Leonard de Leonard is working on a track for his duo with La Fraicheur .

He try to boost ,add character and dimension to a shy Hihat,for this he add hall reverb with my eventide h9, Delay with the yamaha E1010 and distortion +Phaser with ibanez UE400 .

Don t be afraid with noise and distortion when you use this kind of old analog effects,just be careful to don t use it on all your part."

Lo-fi Mellotron Style Sampler with a Gieskes DIY hacked Walkman ( Zachteman )

Sound Provider

"A friend lent me a Zachteman for a few days and I took the opportunity to record a lot of stuff with it. The Zechteman is a kind of DIY Mellotron made from a hacked portable cassette player created by the genius Gieskes.It has a keyboard, a vibrato and even a Cv input that controls the pitch and a Gate input that controls the vibrato (Perfect to use it with my Eurorack Synth).
For this demo, I used my Aiwa Cassette Recorder to record a single note with my Analog Synthesiter Moog Werkstatt for 5 minutes and then I used the cassette with the Zachteman to create a melody.
For the last part I added some effects with the Zoia of Empress Effects and I took the opportunity to make a quick Beat with sounds I released on Sound Provider( Analog Now & Techno Now / https://www.sound-provider.eu/ ) with Maschine Plus of Native Instruments, it allowed me to see that the sample banks of sound provider also works well with the Hiphop 😊😉

Voila!

Sound Of: Modor DR-2 Digital Drum Machine Algorithms/Models

video by Sound Provider

"In this rather long video I tried to present you all the algorithms of the Modor DR-2 one by one, a drum machine that does not have many demos on the net to give you an idea of the variety of sounds it produces. I really like this drum machine which some algorithm allow to create rare or unique sounds like with the Claps or theRattle Model (Check the Time Line at the end of the description)

I focused mainly on the models here and I don't show or very little the more advanced functions like accents, random variations, compressors, reverse function...

I am recording now a lot this superb Drum Synth for the next sound bank for sound Provider ( https://www.sound-provider.eu/​ ) and also for my personal tracks.

For those interested I have posted a shorter video of the machine on a Techno demo here : [posted here]​

Otherwise I wanted to apologize, I realized during the editing that I had left a snare drum in the back that we sometimes hear in the background.

Techno Jam with Moog Subharmonicon

Published on May 22, 2020 Sound Provider

"On this video, I did a kind of Hypnotic techno Jam with the Moog Subharmonicon Synth.

For this one I play a lot with the Seq1 to do and improvise different rhythm.

I think I m happy enought with the synth sound to release a tarck with it later when I 'll have time to record other layers and make a better arrangement.

For this demo I use only sound from my Sound Provider Sample pack ( www.sound-provider.eu )

Modor DR-2 Drum Machine Clap through Boss DD8 GLT Mod for Techno Glitchy and Chaotic Delay.

video by Sound Provider

"Hello,
I am testing here a new sound design combo for my next tracks , Live act , sound bank for sound provider (https://www.sound-provider.eu/​ ) and also for fun .
The New DD-8 GLT delay mode created glitchy machine-gun effects when the pedal switch is pressed.It s quite fun to use and add little chaos and Glitch effect , I think it will be fun to use it in my next live show in addition to the other mods I already use. I use it here with the Beautiful digital drum machine from Modor , the DR-2.
For info about the mix I added a very very little bit of reverb on the clap and some EQ and compressor on all the percussions.

Voila , I hope some of you will find this video useful and that you will enjoy it.

Testing Arturia PolyBrute for Trancy Techno Track.

Sound Provider

"Small demo of the Arturia Polybrute Polyphonic Analog Synth on a Basic Techno /Trance-y Track here.
Originally I did this to test the presets I created for Arturia, to check if they could be used as they are, we all already found some amazing presets impossible to place in a song.
For this exercise I mixed this song differently than a "normal" song:
Even if I used some EQs and compressors, I used them a lot more lightly to avoid denaturing too much the sound of the PolyBrute, I didn't use any effects other than those of the Synthesizer (reverb/delay and modulation), I also played everything by hand in one shot without doing any edits.
The result is a bit rough but I think it's ok to give an idea .
For the sounds of this demo come from the Synthetiser except the Kick which comes from the Sound Bank I made for Sound Provider: "Techno kick now" ( Sp Techno Kick 130Bpm 01 ) and 2 loops of HiHat which comes at 0:36,1:20 and 2:35 which come from "Techno hi-hat now". (Sp Techno HH 130 Bpm Full 03 / Sp Techno HH 130 Bpm Off Beat 05 )
You can always go on the site ( https://www.sound-provider.eu/ )to listen to their demos and why not buy them for your tracks (and also support us ❤😉)
All the other sounds come from the PolyBrute:
Bass, Pad, Horn, Arp, Bouncing Lead, Wobble bass, First HH/percu, Noise Fx.

"Here is the quick demo of the DIY TR 808 Clone from e-licktronic by Leonard de Leonard , The Yocto.
This is not an easy diy project, a friend help me to fix some stuff at the end.
I test it in front of Acidlab Miami /Roland Tr8 &Tr8s TipTop Audio Eurorack Modules and a Real Tr808, and this is my favorite with the real Tr808.
For this demo I use separate output for the Kick snare and HiHat and I use SSL eq and compressor to mix the sound.
I use it a lot for the Analog Drum Sample Soundbank of Sound Provider www.sound-provider.eu .

Testing Eurorack TB 303 Acid Setup Style

Published on Nov 24, 2017 Sound Provider

"I m testing for a future 'Leonard de Leonard' Live and tracks a Roland Tb303 acid style Modular synth setup.
For this setup in my Doepfer case I use the Metropolis Sequencer from intellijel.

For the sound I use the M303 from acidlab through the crazy Strakal Brulu Fuzz and the Make noise Echophon Delay.

For modulation I use 2 Ornament and crime, One is in Sequins mode to trig the Accent and the slide of the M303 and the other is in Mata -q mode to add 3 octave from the metropolis to the M303.

I use also a 4MS pingable Envelope generator to modulate the M303 filter.

I still have to improve this setup but I already like it a lot, it's very fun to play. If you have proposal or question fell free to say it.

For this video I did a very quick drum line with drum shot from the http://www.sound-provider.eu/ Analog Sound banks

Some world from schneidersladen about the Modular synthesizer is use:

Acidlab - M303:
The M303 is an entire synthesizer voice and to be exact a clone of the TB-303´s analog circuitry in a single Eurorack module. Imagine it as a modular vesion of the Acidlab Bassline without the sequencer but with aditional CV inputs instead.

Intellijel Designs - Metropolis:
Very intuitive eight-step sequencer inspired by the RYK-185 project. It shines with different trigger modes, glide, rest and skip per step, it has swing, a quantizer and a clock generator but the most wicked function is that each step can be repeated before proceeding to the next one. Combined with adjustable length per step you get an instant Techno generator! An awesome machine.

TouellSkouarn - Strakal Brulu Koavonek:
Directly from the Brittany in beautiful France comes the Strakal Brulu, a handmade distortion and fuzz module. The great sound is due to the new-old-stock east-german germanium transistors.

Make Noise - Echophon:
The Echophon flips the script on the trend of software based emulation of analog gear! Tony Rolando from MakeNoise and Tom Erbe from Soundhack prsent the Echophon, a DSP based Echo and Delay module for the Eurorack modular system. It is a digital echo with an unique pitch shifting alogorithm, smooth time modulation, tempo synchronisation and feedbacks with saturation. All parameters can be voltage controlled.

4ms Pingable Envelope Generator:
The Pingable Envelope Generator or PEG is a dual digital envelope generator. The duration of one envelope cycle can be forced-to-fit between two "pings". This means that the envelope will perfectly fit into a rhythmical scheme!

Dawless Jam test with Plonk ( Intellijel ) feat Toraiz Squid, Eurorack & Elektron Octatrack

Published on Aug 16, 2019 Sound Provider

"In this little video Leonard de Leonard, the boss of Sound Provider is working here on some routine for his nex live /track and sound bank around the Plonk , an Eurorack Module from Intellijel in cooperation with Montreal-based Applied Acoustics Systems.

Plonk uses a technique known as physical modelling to synthesize.

In this video you can also see in action the Squid from Toraiz who are the main sequencer for all the melodic part.In the Modular Synth he use the Roland 510 Module to play the bass, some Tr 808 / Tr 909 modules from Tiptop Audio and an Octatrack from Elektron who play the Kick and some small percussion from our Soundbank."

Sound of: Arturia PolyBrute FX ON / FX BYPASS

Sound Provider

"After my Video about my presets for the Arturia PolyBrute Polyphonic Synthesizer ( [posted here] ) Some people have asked to listen to demos without the 3 digital effects (which are good) to be able to hear the Analog Sound of the synth only to get a better idea of its power.
Here it is!
In this video I load patches randomly, I start to play, I modulate the Morph parameter then I bypass the digital effects to make you listen to the pure analog sound of the preset.
We can realize that PolyBrute sound is super alive even without effect (at least I think so).

I hope I ll be able to do longer/better demo with the final version ."

Vermona DRM1 MKIII HiHat Feat Mu-Tron Bi-Phase and More

Sound Provider

"Nothing very spectacular here ,but I didn t see so much video with Drum Machine and the MuTron Biphase so I decided to shoot the recording of one relatively simple and little dirty HiHat pattern I did for a future Sound Provider Soundbank. On this pattern I use the Ibanez TK999 Tube King Distortion, then the Boss DD8 Delay in Standard mode , On the console I send the signal to the Mutron Phaser, I keep around 40% of the dry signal in the middle and send the Phasor A to the left and the B to the right, I really like the modulation the phasor add to the signal.
If I have time I will try to shoot more stuff through the Bi-Phase.
