The World's Biggest Trance Lead?

YouTube via suitandtieguy.

"In this video, I attempt to create the world's biggest trance lead using a Prophet-10 and the STG Soundlabs Radiophonic Accessory System under control of a x0xb0x. I'm not sure if i was successful, but it did sound pretty trancey. Other tools abused in this video include a CR-8000, Juno-6, Mackie mixer, Lexicon MPX-110, and Oktava MK-219 microphone. Modules available at stgsoundlabs.com"

The Sephorath - Custom Analog Drone Synth

Title link takes you to shots via this auction. This one went up just for that shot. Kind of reminds you of some of the people who comment on this site, doesn't it? ;)

Details:
"A one of a kind, handmade beast of a synthesizer. All your heavy brooding synth nightmares wrapped up in one package. At the heart of the beast is a unique transistor based set of oscillators that squirt out some of the grossest and oddest waveshapes ive ever heard. The range is great from sub booming bass tones and crackling sawtooths up to the staticy white noise infused high frequencies.

The oscillator set is controlled by a group of lfo's with a very wide range, LED displays and individual depth controls. the lfos each vary the control votage to one of the oscillators for pulsing very subtle shifts in shape and pitch, to hard edged rhythmic songs that fall out of step with each other - get random - and then come back to the original rhythm. very nutso! Also are a filter control for cutting out high end frequencies as well as a feedback knnob for spitting the output of the synthesizer back into the first oscillator creating even more random tones.

This synth is very unconventional but the possibilities for different sounds are insanely vast. everytime i turn it one a new sound comes out. operates from7v-12v and will change tuning accordingly.

Dont think ill get around to building anything else like this for awhile. Also look out for a new type of delay/pitch shifter within one or two days! thanks!

Specifications:
*three oscillator tuning/filtering/shape knobs
*one master tune
*three LFO speed controls
*three LFO depth controls

*Filter Knob
