Roland System 500 Basslines & Sequences Demo by INHALT

Published on Jun 1, 2016 INHALTVIDEO

"We were very excited at the prospect of a brand new analogue modular synth from Roland, so when the collaboration between Malekko and Roland was announced, we were keen to grab our hands on the System 500. As long time users of the Roland System 100m and various other Roland monosynths, to our ears, the System 500 had a lot to live up to. However, we were very pleasantly surprised upon first patching. While far more aggressive than the vintage units, the new System 500 brings that familiar Roland mid range and those super snappy envelopes back to the fold. What you hear are excerpts from a stereo recording of the System 500 with a Korg SQ1 sequencer. It was initially recorded to a Sony PCM field recorder and then transferred to Pro Tools HD for editing. We've added a bit of reverb from an Eventide H7600, but what you're predominantly hearing is the raw System 500 sound. No post processing was performed to the audio track itself and it is largely the direct output of the System 500 into the Sony PCM."

SH-101 + Oberkorn + uScale + BD808 + RS808 = Eurorack Hybrid

Published on May 31, 2016 n3bsvid

"[ http://citizenpark.bandcamp.com ]

In this video I jam with a hybrid setup involving a Roland SH-101, a small eurorack system and an Oberkorn MK3 analog sequencer.

Patch breakdown:
The Oberkorn sequences everything. Its 2 gate outputs trigger the BD808 and RS808 drum modules while the clock output gates the SH-101. The first CV channel from the oberkorn is quantized by the uScale 2 which then feeds into the SH-101's CV input. This allows me to have musical notes regardless of how the knobs are set on the sequencer.

Everything is then mixed through a samson mixer (off screen) and fed into an Apogee Duet interface. I then record in Ableton Live and apply a dash of ValhallaDSP reverb (which I also tweak in real time, but you can't see my hand in the video).
