Rheyne - Sequenced Jam #10


Published on Jan 8, 2017 Rheyne

"A 'sequenced jam' using only Moog and Make Noise synthesizers. Reverb is from a Strymon BigSky and TC Hall of Fame. Audio is straight from the mixer, and sync'd to the video."

DbMinor | Eurorack Ambient


Published on Jan 8, 2017 Björn Bommersheim

"The patch is based around the idea to go for chords and the use of the music thing radio (in my 'case' the klangbauköln version) as a yet simple sample/chord player. So i rendered four different 10min DbMinor chords (basically the chord plus three inversions) with ni absynth. For changing the samples/chords i used make noise pressure points which is quite fun and an useful approach.

The interesting stereo filter effect by the middle of the recording is the Mutable Instruments Rings into the Uoki Toki Dual Polivocs filter which somehow blew me away ...

Feel free to leave your thoughts or comments.

Here are some patch notes / modules i used:

Yamaha CS-60: "The Beast Must Die" by Raymond Castile


Published on Jan 8, 2017 raycastile

"An eerie John Carpenter-inspired piece. The CS-60 is not the star this time. It plays a supporting role backing up the Yamaha Reface CP on the main melody. A more flamboyant use of the CS-60 are the jarring stingers that punctuate the piece. I haven't experimented much with the CS-60's noise generator, but it is capable of some powerful effects.

This piece has nothing to do with the Peter Cushing movie, 'The Beast Must Die.' I just thought it made a good title. I imagined something supernatural going on, probably in the woods, maybe witches meeting for a sabbath. But that seemed too passive. I thought the music sounded more urgent and dire, like a hunt, maybe the hunter becoming the hunted, tracking down some creature, maybe a werewolf. Maybe the stingers indicate the werewolf is picking off members of the hunting party. Maybe witches are involved somehow. Who knows.

The piece also has nothing to do with 'Pickman's Model,' even though I used the Night Gallery painting from that episode. I just thought it captured the mood of the piece."

How to play the synth parts to Rush "The Camera Eye"


Published on Jan 7, 2017 Michael E Caloroso

"The song is easy to play, but the sounds are a challenge! I know that one part is a GUITAR but I played it anyway. When Rush recorded the song, Geddy Lee had the Oberheim OBX, his Oberheim eight voice SEM, Minimoog, and Moog Taurus pedals.

After much experimentation I nailed the sounds with OBX, Taurus pedals, and OBSX (which they didn't use but is a worthy contender for the sounds of the era). The Oberheims have a HOLD feature - as you play the notes in the intro, I'm pressing the HOLD button and they sustain without the hands. That leaves one hand free to play the S&H part.

I'm just playing through a tiny Barbetta amp and the iPod camera mic picked up the Taurus bass timbres better than I expected...!"

Radikal Technologies Accelerator demo: Cinematic pads


Published on Jan 7, 2017 MIDERA

"Just trying to dig deeper into the sound engine of the Radikal Technologies Accelerator. There's far more underneath the hood of this thing than it seems. No other effects (aside from EQ and some volume adjustments) were used. Reverb/Delays are from the Accelerator."

Emu Emax 1 SE Rack Sampler w/SCSI2SD OLED Display SN 0680192

via this auction

"Emax 1 SE rack mount analog sampler
SCSI2SD installed - 4 "drives" on one SD card with 35 banks.
Loads entire banks in around 2 seconds
Blue OLED display installed. Pads had been lifted from a previous attempt so the display has been wired in. Works perfect, just full disclosure. Was done professionally
Missing one slider cap, and power button cap
Sometimes there is a faint clicking from inside, it has been traced down to the power connector, which is a press fit style of wiring. If I press the wires back in with a small screwdriver the clicking goes away - it could easily be replaced with a new soldered connector easily enough.
The SCSI2SD is installed internally, but routed to the front with a thin ribbon cable to a full size SD reader, it's on the front with a 3M command strip which could easily be removed without damage to the front panel.
I will include a 3D printed case for the SCSI2SD in case you wanted to install it internally with a slim floppy drive. I like this system, easy to use full size SD cards.
SOUNDS GREAT! 8 Analog SEM filters. Full control through sysex and CC.
external SCSI connector installed but not hooked up internally.
Some small marks on the front panel, see photos.
Some screws are not firm, par for the course for something this old and easy enough to rectify with new screws."
