Improvisation LXVI: DSI Prophet '08 Vintage Strings Patch

Published on Jun 27, 2016 Sacred Synthesis

"The Poly Evolver Keyboard provides only a soft flute-like digital pad used to accompany the various melodies. The Prophet '08s provide the melody patch (a combination of 2 different pulse widths) and the strings.

I had already used a vintage string patch with the PEK, so I wanted to demonstrate the Prophet '08's version of the same sound. Of course, I'm using the P'08 keyboard-module pair, which offers greater sonic potential. The keyboard uses a standard 8ft. pitch, while the module is set higher to a 4ft. pitch and brightened up a bit. Hence, to a degree this is a bi-timbral patch. Combined with a generous amount of reverb, this produces that classic vintage strings sound, only - hopefully - better than the old string machines could produce. The master P'08 modulation wheel is set to control the filter cut off frequency, and this, combined with the Hammond's volume pedal, creates the dynamic changes.

Instrumentation:
DSI Prophet '08 Keyboard (2)
DSI Prophet '08 Module
DSI Poly Evolver Keyboard
DSI Poly Evolver Rack
DSI Evolver Desktop
Hammond XPK 200L Pedalboard

Effects:
Lexicon MX300 for reverb
Alesis Nanoverb 2 for delay

Performed and recorded live directly to CD

Road Testing Reason 9 - Hear ALL the New Sounds!

Published on Jun 27, 2016 Propellerhead

9 hour road trip from Los Angeles to the Grand Canyon! Curious if this sets the record for longest video post ever.

"You may know that Reason 9 includes over a thousand new cutting-edge sounds from professional sound designers to ignite new musical ideas for you but what do they sound like? We thought you'd want to know so we got our friend Jake Shaw to play them... all of them. For this epic challenge we set out on an equally epic road trip into the California desert. How far will Jake get before he gives up? How far down the road can you get before you've played all of Reason 9's new sounds? Find out for yourself - but you'll probably want to put off binge-watching the latest season of your favorite show because this will take you just as long to get through.

(For those asking, that keyboard is a CME xKey 37)"

Furthrrr Generator + SEM Filter // Eurorack Modular Session

Furthrrr Generator + SEM Filter // Eurorack Modular Session from Jonathan Sare on Vimeo.

"Here is a modular melodic session inspired by Boards Of Canada.

The Tiptop Trigger Riot is the brain of this patch. It commands the Rene and the Octone, sequencing respectively the Furthrrr Generator and the Dixie II+.

VCO 2 of the Furthrrr Generator is only waveshaped, Vco 1 goes into the Doepfer SEM Filter.

The Dixie II+ is filtered by the System X Filter and pulse wave modulated by the Maths.

Kick and snare drums are provided by the Peaks. Hit-Hats are from the Neuron and also modultated by the Maths.

Extra footage was captured by the astronauts of the Nasa Apollo missions around the Moon."
