Rings - Sympathetic Strings & “Disastrous Peace” Hidden Mode

Rings - Sympathetic Strings & "Disastrous Peace" Hidden Mode from Kial on Vimeo.

"In this video the audio is created only by Mutable Instruments 'Rings' running directly out of the Eurorack through a Digitech Polara for reverb. A simple sequence, and a couple of LFOs are used to control the module in 'Sympathetic Strings' mode. Then, the 'secret handshake' to enter the 'Disastrous Peace' mode is shared with some audio demonstrating the unique sounds of this mode. Recorded directly into Logic X through a MOTU 896HD @ 44.1kHz/24bit. No additional sound sources, post-processing, or FX were used."

"Working for the weekend" Loverboy Oberheim OBXa Keyboard

Published on Mar 27, 2016 synthartist69

"Just a Loverboy jam...this song makes me happy.... I believe it was originally done on an OBXa but not 100% sure...."

Update: someone mentioned he used a Prophet 5 and a Yamaha CS-50 at the time. Below is a video from them performing it live in 1983. You can see the CS50 on top at 2:58. Can't tell what's under it. The left side panels by the left knob box don't match a Prophet-5 or OB-Xa.

Update2: Turns out that is a custom case for the Prophet-5 that the CS60 sits on. Via the same source:

"He had a custom wood case built to hold the P5 under the CS. It sat on top of the electric grand. I actually talked to him about it when he stopped by Sweetwater when I worked there. He also used a Yamaha SS-30 string synth and sometimes a second P5 on his left."
