27 Angriest MiniMoog Ever

YouTube via 7thDanSound | December 02, 2010 | 2 likes, 0 dislikes

"So I tried patching up my vintage Model D MiniMoog to my synthesizers.com modular. Thought they'd play nice. But it seems the Mini got angry! The audio is straight out of the Mini, all the modular does is control it. Some reverb added here and there.

Full 15 minute audio is available at..." :

Synthesizers.com 38 Quantizer First Look

YouTube via 7thDanSound | January 17, 2011 |

"This is a first look at the synthesizers.com Q171 quantizer bank that I got the other day. I have no previous experience with quantizers so this is me testing it out. I find them extremely musical and very inspiring. This is a basic patch, more involved things to come.

Dougs Swing Patch

YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Jan 17, 2012

"I got this tip from fellow Buchla dude Doug, or as he's known here on YouTube, boobtube 356. It's a great tip for adding swing to your 250e sequences. Swing that can be altered without changing the tempo. Thanks Doug!

98 Serge TriTones

YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Nov 21, 2011

Update: YouTube description added: "Using the sequencer of the Serge and three oscillators to create some chords and a nice little progression. There is some random triggering of the oscillators so it shouldn't sound so boring all the time. At the end is a little tweaking by me which shows a little more of how the patch works.

Buchla Swinging and Generating Triplets

YouTube Uploaded by dkimcg on Jan 17, 2012

"the 1/4 note sound and the swinging triplet playing sound generated from the same 1/4 note pulse. Based on DougCL's swinging clock tip as demonstrated by 7thDanSound. [this post]

Not a musical statement, mainly a study in swinging and triplets generated from a simple pulse.

I knew you could make triplets without a standard 1/3 divider.
And I thought it was pretty cool to be able to sequence swing and triplets from the 250e. :D

Only problem is I still can't figure out how to keep a tempo and swing a note before the clock without faking it by swinging the previous note way late to fake the early note w/o patching the pendulum's tempo with a quick negative modulation and syncing the pendulum to a master midi clock. Any ideas, if that makes sense?"

10 Big Bass

YouTube via 7thDanSound | October 12, 2010

"The MiniMoog and x0xb0x make a pretty nice combo. Send them through a Moog Bass MUrF, distort slightly, compress and tweak the individual filters of the MUrF and you should get a pretty versatile bass sound."

13 Derived Chords

"Using sample and hold modules you can hold notes in an arpeggio and create chords, thus making evolving and unpredictable tunes. Just use notes that fit nicely together!"

20 One Band Modular Vocoder

YouTube via 7thDanSound | November 15, 2010

"Vocoders are complex machines but working with a simple principle. They take two inputs, put them through filterbanks and apply the envelopes of one input and applies it on the amplitude of the other. Thus the frequency spectrum of one signal is imparted on the other but only if that signal contains those frequencies. Usually vocoders sport filterbanks with at least 10 filters in each, expensive if you want to do it with a modular. This demo shows that you can make quite an efficient vocoder using just one filter each for carrier and modulator!"

54 FSR MoogerFooger Love

YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Mar 17, 2011

"The FSR is ideal for working with the Moog MoogerFooger pedals as they have plenty of voltage control possibilities. But what makes it so easy is that the MoogerFoogers supply their own control voltage on the ring of the control inputs for use with passive devices such as the Moog foot pedal. As the FSRs are passive this is a great feature. They are unattenuated however and as the FSRs are slightly sensitive ideally you'd need some kind of attenuator, like in the CP251."

45 Oberheim SEM Sounds

YouTube via 7thDanSound | February 07, 2011 |

"I really like my Oberheim SEM. This is my second one, still can't figure out why I sold the first one. It sounds extremely good and I just wish I had another to put in that empty slot to the right of mine. Now that the re-issue is out I just might! Also, below there is space for some patch panels to access all the goodies inside the SEM via it's patch points. I just realized there's room for some Euro modules too.

This video shows some of the capabilities of this little monster."

"All sounds in this video are made entirely on the Buchla 261e Complex Waveform Generator. The 292e is set to gate mode meaning it's just a VCA, no filtering. I made this to get to know some of my new modules a little better.

"Trying a three panel Serge for the first time in my life. It's a bit mind boggling at first so I started just testing the waters with a few simple patches. Quite bit of new things to get to know in this one. There are four quite different patches in this movie so stay tuned throughout!

Moog BassMUrF Drums

97 Too much modulation on 222e

"I'm making my way through my new Modcan modules and this is the Triple VCO 70B. Three analog style VCO's in one modules, implemented digitally (but you can hardly hear it) and it has a couple of cool things built in, like quantizing for the inputs, voltage controlled mixing, PWM and AM.

56 Buchla 259e Mem and Skew

YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Mar 25, 2011

"The Buchla 259e Complex Waveform Generator has a special mode where, instead of using the regular wavetables, it actually scans it's own program memory of the internal CPU. You might think that chaos would ensue, and at times it does, but there are a lot of very interesting timbres to be found within!"

"I've upgraded the Buchla slightly with a proper 12wls cabinet and a 266e Source of Uncertainty module. Here are my first few tests with the SoU. It's a very musical and incredibly useful module. I expect to get a lot of fun out of this one!
