YAMAHA FB-01 Sound Generator SYNTHESIZER

YouTube via droomusic2010 — May 14, 2010 — "Live noodling on the Serge Modular, Drew Neumann and Modcan/Cyndustries Modular synthesizers.
Lead is 1 VCO through Serge Bandpass filter controlled by the touch plate (TKB) with filter, vibrato, and release triggering set up Other analog sequencers (including a Milton) control basslines, other melodies, and percussion. All of this is done live on these monster analog modular synths, no overdubs. 28 VCOs in this patch. I used enough banana cables to choke a horse. The room got very warm."

John Foxx & The Maths - Destination

YouTube via JohnFoxxMetamatic — April 30, 2010 — "In between rehearsals for the ''Short Circuit'' analogue synthesizer show at the Roundhouse on 5 June, John Foxx has also been doing some filming with Benge and Karborn. This is at Benge's Play studios in London, where they're recording the new John Foxx & The Maths album, due for release in autumn 2010. Karborn projected some films across them as they played - hence the sunglasses as they were blasted with white light. It's very much a rough cut of something that may develop into a full length promo later in the year - some of the imagery may also be used on screens at the Roundhouse, or even form part of a dvd at some later stage. All loose plans at the moment, but as Brian Eno recently commented, Benge's studio is an important contribution to the ''archeology'' of synths - and the great thing about these old machines is they look as fantastic as they sound. The track on this clip, 'Destination' is the first single from the album and is currently available with a second track, 'September Town' via iTunes etc."

Blofeld editor for Reaktor

via Gavan on the Waldorf list:

"This is my first real creation with reaktor.

i got sick of there being no software editor for the blofeld on the mac OS platform..

so i decided to make one, unfortunately Reaktor doesn't allow sysex so i was limited to using CC changes so not all parameters are available but everything that can be controlled by CC's are ....

i've tested in Cubase 4 running standalone Reaktor via the inbuilt OS X IAC bus and it works great..

i also tested in Ableton live 8 but it will only allow you to use the editor in monitor mode, so you cant alter parameters from the editor whilst a clip is playing back only when monitoring .. which is a strange limitation of Ableton.. or of course i could be missing something..

you can, however, run the editor from the VST version of reaktor in Live..

Parameter changs in both hosts are recordable

hopefully this is of use to someone :) especially in OS X land

and if anyone using other hosts could let me know if it works like logic or DP

can download here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/98006/blofeld%20editor.zip or from the Reaktor user library"
