KNIFONIUM SteampunkSpaceSpies - 25 Tube Monophonic Synthesizer

Published on Apr 5, 2016 darkenergymedia

"25 tube monophonic synthesizer.

This piece of music is done entirely (including percussion and sound effects) with the Knifonium Tube synthesizer, made by Jonte Knif. For purchase information contact Geoff Farr at GSF Agency (http://www.gsfagency.com).

This was recorded and edited using MOTU's Digital Performer. I started working on this back in November, capturing some wild performances, effects, and percussion sounds.
Native Instruments Kontakt was used for building up and temping the tracks, then many were augmented or replaced by doing repeated multitrack passes directly from the Knifonium.
A pair of Lexicon MPX500s were used for pingpong delays during tracking on a few parts, but all other FX were within Digital Performer.
Final mix was captured to an Apogee Ensemble.

I felt that there were plenty of demos of the instrument in its raw state (not multi tracked) so I had to see how far I could take this. The tune had been hanging in my brain for about 3 weeks, and the Knifonium seemed like a very Steampunk Sci-Fi instrument, so this is what I had to do...
Enjoy!

Sound Design:Scale Quantize Envelopes w/ Phenol

Published on Apr 5, 2016 Rishabh Rajan

"Kilpatrick Audio's Phenol Patchable Synthesizer has some pretty interesting modes for its envelopes. In this video I demonstrate how the envelope can be used to modulate the pitch of the oscillator to create musical arpeggios and scales."

Buchla Video Tutorials by Todd Barton

00 Buchla Mind Introduction from todd barton on Vimeo.

You can find the full set of 26 videos in this series on Vimeo here. Per Todd Barton:

"These instructional videos were created for a course I co-taught with Prof. Robert Coburn this past autumn (2015) at the University of the Pacific. The focus is on the main Buchla 200 series modules in their system housed at the new Analog/Digital Studio.

Though the focus is on the older Buchla 200 modules almost all of the information, tips & tricks are applicable to the newer 200e series. I will be adding more 200e tutorials to this collection in the coming months.

My deep thanks to Prof. Coburn and the enthusiastic and talented students of this first class: http://www.analogital19.com

Also a big thank you to my friend and colleague, Bruce Bayard, who patiently taped and editied this entire video series. http://brucebayard.com/

For more information and discussion of things Buchla please visit my blog:

'The videos have been great! I've gone through them all and will continue to review them for quite a while I am sure.'

Buchla MARF Test One

Published on Apr 5, 2016 Todd Barton

"This is a super basic, first try an using the Buchla MARFr by Roman Filippov. It is so much deeper and beyond a step sequencer. It can be a 16 stage envelope generator, nested asynchronus clusters, etc... more to come. Please download this for better audio:

Moog Voyager Arp Odyssey Electronica

Published on Apr 5, 2016 farmyfarm

"A freestyle demo utilizing what I've learned of the amazing ways the Moog Voyager can be integrated into a vintage set-up with some modern twists. Applying a 16 step stuttering bassline compliments of my trusty Roland TR-707 via the trigger out to the Moog Voyager Envelope/Gate In. Then, using the T.C. Flashback X4 Midi synced to the Moog for the depth of delay needed to compliment the bassline. The TR-707 is also sending MTC to the Voyager's LFO which, when the mod wheel is applied adds modulation with Sample and Hold and wave modulation to OCS-3 for a gritty FM undertone. The TR-8, TR-707, Volca Beats, SP-404-SX are alternating various percussive elements while the Behringer Tweakalizer (An inexpensive gem) adds some nice variation with HP and LP filtering LFO and EQ cut switches.) The Odyssey again pulls lead line duties with judicious filtering and reverb with the Eventide Space. It's very on-the-fly and has my usual brain farts. Recorded again with the ZOOM Q4 with direct HD Audio. Use your quality ear monitors for the best audio experience!!"
