Review MICROBrute B with XR20 - Analog MIDI Bassline Basics by The Drum Machinist

Published on Mar 3, 2014 VJ FRANZ K·649 videos

"Great basslines for Hiphop, Dubstep, more. Connecting the new MICROBrute synth to the XR20 Drum Machine by MIDI cable to produce a new track, and I'll show you the steps. Wobble? No Problem. We'll even change the bass into an Electro kick drum with different patching. The machines are both very affordable, and you could produce a complete track with only these. Subscribe, ask questions, or request what you'd like to see. Thanks for watching! - VJ Franz K aka The Drum Machinist

Also my video with the earlier MINIBrute for more ideas.

"MONOTRIBE sync'd to and filtering TENORI ON! Using the panning controls, I have sent a click track to the "sync in" of the MonoTribe, and "chiptune" style blips are sent to the "audio in", and filtered in strange and interesting ways!

VOLCA SAMPLE Review - A - Unboxing & Making Beats - Line In Audio

Published on May 18, 2015 VJ FRANZ K

"The New Member of the family - 'Volca Sample' is reviewed, unboxed and demo'd in Line-In Audio with my first two beats* on the machine! It's super portable and runs on batteries, but sounds big when hooked up to a full speaker system. It's got the sound of a classic sampler, with the warm sounding "analog isolators" that let you fine tune the sound, or do DJ style EQ tricks. Hear it Line-In recorded, with no effects added. *( Yes, I did try it at Noisebug synth store before this! Check them out. ; - )"

808 DAY DELUGE! 100% TR808 Sounds make a song. IDM / HOUSE z9

Published on Aug 9, 2018 VJ FRANZ K

"The song is 'Jingle Jangle', from my 2001 album, on 8/08 2018, I remade it using the Deluge. This song uses the 808 Cowbell sound with different pitches as the synth notes! Other various sounds ( Such as Linn Drum ) were in the original, but for this day, I remade it ONLY with 808 samples - even the "desert wind" sound was the cymbal noise being filtered!
If you're good enough with a sampler, any small collection of samples should be enough to make something interesting!
Challenge Yourself!"
