"Two Days After" live jam Vermona Perfourmer drm1 mk III Filter Lancet Doepfer Dark Energy a-100
Published on Dec 23, 2012 by Tiefengrund
"Another Live Jam with:
Silvie von Tiefengrund: is analog again, Vermona DRM1 MKIII triggert by the e-Drumset, Snare and HIhat through the Vermona Filter Lancet
Mick von Tiefengrund: Synthesizer
Another live performance with my synthesizers and my wife Silvie on the e-drumset.
The recording and mixing is absolutly live, on one track . No overdubs!
Our Setup:
Vermona Perfourmer MK 2
Vermona DRM 1 MK III used as a drum-synthesizer, triggert by the e-drumset and Vermona Filter Lancet
Doepfer Dark Energy supported by a A-110 VCO and pitch and modulation wheel used as solo synth
Waldorf Blofeld Keyboard

"Inside the Grid on Altair IV" by Mark Mosher - A One-Note One-Patch Soundscape in Absynth 5
Published on Dec 23, 2012 by Mark Mosher
This song is also available as an MP3-320 audio download on soundcloud http://soundcloud.com/markmosher/inside-the-grid-on-altair-iv .
"Inside the Grid on Altair IV" is a soundscape created with one patch from scratch using the Absynth 5. It is performed be pressing and holding a single note for the entirety of the song. While I have used Absynth as the sole instrument for songs in the past (Tracks 3 & 4 on my last album markmosher.bandcamp.com/album/no-ghosts-just-fear), I've never created a patch where one held note triggers the entire composition. Recent works by Absynth creator Brian Clevinger and artist Anthony Distefano have inspired me to do start working on some pieces of this nature and this is my first of many to come.
The audio is CD quality, and the video shows a behind-the-scenes look at Absynth's wonderful 68-stage modulatable envelopes in action. So all the movement and changes in dynamics, pitch, timber are meticulously drawn and programmed as part of the patch. The envelopes also support LFOs on segments. The envelopes can be extremely long and also loop independently which making Absynth fantastic for evolving soundscapes.
Note, I am also using an envelope to change the "effect time" of the Pipe Effect which is a unique audio effect within Absynth. P. 88 of the manual describes it best "Let's take the image of a string. A loudspeaker (a contact loudspeaker) is connected to a string, which begins to vibrate as a result. You can determine the position of this virtual loudspeaker on the string via the parameter Input Position. Above the string are two pickups, similar to an E-Guitar. The pickups' positions can be determined through the parameter Output Positions. Changing those two parameters can be compared with changing two microphones. You can modulate the string's length and the pickups' position through the LFOs or a MIDI Controller. This way, various flanging, pitch-shifting and rotary speaker effects can be achieved. These effects are particularly apparent when the modulation of the pickups are modulated in op¬posite directions."

Sequential Circuits - Pro FX - Ambient Package delay, reverb, flanger

"Up for auction is a VERY rare Sequential Circuits Inc - ProFX Programmable Modular Effects System produced in the early 1980's.
This particular ProFX is even stranger as it is a preconfigured system dubbed the "Ambient Package" it includes the 524 Digital Delay, 522 Flanger/Chorus and 518 Spring Reverb modules and is housed in the Model 500 Chassis with System Controller.
there is alot of info online : google - sequential circuits ProFX
This instrument has been recently fully cleaned and checked out by a qualified professional audio service technician.. the pro-fx is very clean and fully working.
details on the particular effects in this rack:
500 System Controller:
The Pro FX Model 500 System Controller is the brain behind the Pro-FX Audio Processing System. Although the System Controller has no Audio Processing functions, this piece is required to supply power and programmable memory to the various effects modules. There is room for 64 patch memories within the onboard memory (ROM). Random Access memory (RAM) is required for extra modules to work with an expanded system. Two Operating Systems are known to exist 1.5 and 2.0 .
Other features of the Model 500 are Tape Sync for stepping through patches, memory back up via Tape Interface, Data Interface for daisy chaining 500 controllers, as well as
Footswitch INs and a CV in for routing control pedals to the functions of various modules.
OS: 2.0 is included, the internal backup battery was recently replaced durning testing (Oct 2012)
518 Reverb (module and tank)
The Model 518 Reverb includes a compact, rackmount six spring delay line, and a three-band equalizer which filters the input to and output from the reverb unit. The LP (lowpass) filter limits frequencies above its setting from 200Hz to 20 kHz. The HP (highpass) filter limits frequencies below its setting from 20Hz to 2 kHz. The MID (midrange) band filter has separate frequency (50 Hz to 5 kHz) and EQ boost/cut controls. For example a typical use would be to use the HP filter to prevent a bass drum from dominating the reverb. The module also features automatic limiting which reduces undesirable spring colorations. It contains a PEAK LED indicator for optimizing signal levels.
