God's Box Humpback meets Akemie

Published on Oct 9, 2015 vcoadsr

"Eurorack modular jam/experiment seeing how the 'Humpback' SEM-style filter by God's Box plays with a digital input oscillator, in this case the ALM Busy Circuits Akemie's Castle."

iTunes: FlexyKick - Yann Jubelin

"FlexyKick is an electronic kick synthesizer that also can be used for sub-bass sounds, it has a simple looper recording up to 10 seconds.

Audiobus and inter-app audio compatible.

It allows you to shape the sound using the touch and motion of the device and reacts in similar way to skinned percussions.

It has a special sliding mode for performing sustained sounds."

That's one colorful TR-8!

Neon Opto-modulator and Full system demo

Published on Oct 9, 2015 karl welty

"Demo of my optical modulator for a neon lamp ring oscillator. Also a full system demo. Been building many neon synth modules lately but exposed board build with 200 volts is not a wise idea with a curious kitty. I built a see through lid for when I'm not near to discourage her. This represents the first time I've been able to run them indoors.

Video section one - The ring oscillator using four segments hard sync as a low pitched squarewave. As the light spins it changes pitch through the sync chain varying the pulsewidth. Subtle chorusing vibrato, the effect can also be applied to the solo voice if the ring is used as a modulator into it.

Video section two - Arbitrary demo of four elements, pretty much as the knobs happen to have been set. The ring oscillator as a low drone, the base five module being modulated by the LFO, the second squarewave oscillator being modulated by the random pattern generator, and the solo voice run from the keypad with modulation from osc 7 of the ring."

Drip Hop | Modular Beats Patch

Published on Oct 8, 2015 r beny

"Something a little different than my usual ambient/experimental stuff. Made this patch on my Eurorack system the other night and thought it was cool enough to document. I recently got a Beatstep Pro and have been loving the drum triggers.

Crude Patch Notes

Kick: Make Noise STO with envelope from Maths
Snare: Bastl Noise Squre digital out with envelope from Maths
Percussion 1: Mutable Instruments Elements with mallet and strike timbre being randomly modulated by Make Noise Wogglebug
Percussion 2: Make Noise Mysteron with type being randomly modulated by Wogglebug, going into Elements resonator-in.
Percussion 3: Mannequins Three Sisters self-oscillating. Mutable Instruments Tides Parasite in 2-Drunks mode is randomly modulating frequency. High, low and centre outputs are going into the Make Noise RXMX where the Beatstep Pro triggers the strike input.
Chord drone: Make Noise Telharmonic H out going to the Pittsburgh Modular In/Out and then an Old Blood Noise Endevours Black Fountain Delay pedal and a Digitech Polara Reverb pedal.
Melody: Mannequins Mangrove formant out to the In/Out and into the same pedals as above. Enevelope from Make Noise Function.

All sequencing handled by the Arturia Beatstep Pro. I fiddle around with the release time on the melody (the fall time on Function) and the formant and barrel on Mangrove."

Our Distant Home

Published on Oct 8, 2015 davidryle

"A pastiche blend of Berlin School and Blade Runner soundtrack vibe.

The bass line is sculpted with a pair of Arp 4072 style filters. The Yusynth Arp 4072 and the STG Soundlabs Post Lawsuit Low Pass Filter are tapping a pair of Q106 VCO's and run in parallel to a mixer. The Yusynth filter is routed through a Behringer Space-C CC300 Chorus pedal prior to the mix.

The sequencer for the bass line is the STG Soundlabs Voltage Mini Store. Timing for the bass line is from the STG Soundlabs Time Divider in dotted quarter notes.

Master clock time is within the modular from an SSL TapTempo LFO.

A mix of dotted eighth and sixteenth notes against some triplets and straight time notes round out the various sequencer clocks.

The manually played parts (E.Piano and Strings) are on a Casio Privia PX-5S and a Novation ReMOTE (flutey Mellotron) from a SampleTron vst in Cubase.

All recorded in real-time stereo track to Cubase. Video edited in Final Cut Pro.

If it isn't obvious, the inspiration for this track came from a (weak) combination of Redshift's "Aquamarine" off of "Fracture" and some more recognizable Tangerine Dream rips as well as the blatant Vangelis "Blade Runner" blues scale renderings. It's all in my head but rarely comes together in a way which can be presented (not that this is in any way "presentable"). Certainly an amateur-ish nod and wink, but regardless - my thanks to the various true artists for providing the great musical inspiration."

Oberheim OBSX Vintage 6-Voice Analog Synthesizer

via this auction

Note the OB-SX is a preset synthesizer with limited real-time controls, however Midisoft makes a plug & play MIDI interface that connects to the computer port on back. The interface gives you access to extensive parameters. You'll find some demos of it previously posts here. There is no mention of the port in this listing however there was extensive work done to the unit per the description:

"This vintage Oberheim OBSX 6-Voice Synthesizer is seller refurbished and in excellent condition.

The full story of this classic keyboard can be found here: [PDF]

Watch this video to hear it for yourself! https://youtu.be/DTakpjc0uYs

The Oberheim OBSX is a RARE keyboard on eBay. It is even more rare to find one that is in such great condition as this one is. I know, because I refurbished this keyboard myself. It took me several months and over $500 in parts, but it was worth it.

Here is a summary of the repairs:

* All NEW wiring except for ribbon cables
* 94 NEW gold-plated Molex connectors (all new board-to-board connections)
* 49 NEW lubricated keboard bushings
* 62 NEW capacitors (mostly electrolytic power supply caps and sample and hold caps)
* 74 NEW ICs (mostly on the control/processor board - all voice card CEMs are original)
* 79 NEW miniature calibration pots
* 12 NEW matched resistors (four each on voice cards #1, #5 and #6)
* One NEW J-wire keyboard contact
* NEW Pitch Bend Pot
* NEW Auto-tune pushbutton and LED
* NEW 8-position DIP switch
* NEW finish hardware on end panels
* Cosmetic paint touch-ups
* Thoroughly cleaned, inside and out (including flux removal)
* Full Calibration

This keyboard is in great condition! Everything works and it sounds and plays like new.

The Oberheim OBSX uses the same Curtis CEM chipset (CEM3340, CEM3320 and CEM3310) used by Oberheim's OB-Xa and OB-8 Analog Synthesizers. These chips were also used in many of the finest analog synths from the 1980s. Their distinctive, fat, analog sound is classic!

This keyboard does not have MIDI capability, although third party MIDI adapters for the OBSX exist. The OBSX was originally designed for use with the Oberheim DSX Sequencer, which allows recording and playback of sequences. (not included in this listing)"

Arp 2600 + Keyboard Rare Vintage Analog Modular Synthesizer with Extras

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"For sale is an Arp 2600 with keyboard. It's in nice shape but it does show some wear so check out the detailed pictures to make sure you like it. Included are power cable, patch cables, original manual, patch sheets. It's working great but has a few minor issues. The keyboard connector cable is loose and needs either replacing or cleaning, if it doesn't sit just right the keyboard won't connect. It's still possible to play it fine as long as the cable doesn't move much. The reverb is not functioning and the sliders for that section crackle and cut the sound in and out. A few of the sliders are scratchy and overall the synth could use a little tune up and calibration. Otherwise everything appears to be working great. I've set the price low in consideration of these problems. I plan to refurbish it and relist at a higher price but thought I would offer it at lower price point for those looking to snag a 2600 at a more affordable price. Arp 2600s have been selling for $8k - $10k, so this could be a great deal for someone willing to give it a little TLC and refurbishing. Don't sleep on this one, already have a few interested buyers locally and I won't be leaving it up for too long before I send it in for repairs or it gets sold. Cheapest 2600 on the market right now, grab it today!"
