Korg Electribe 2 Tutorial + Jam: Kick and Snare / Bass on one track


Published on Jan 21, 2017 mishpult

"This video explains a workaround for Korg Electribe 2 groovebox that achieves kick and snare/tom/base sounds on one track. Originally demonstrated on the Korg EMX by LousyFacelift on his YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKXk2K... [below] The result is slightly different with the E2, but nevertheless it's a neat trick in the battle for more polyphony on this machine. Enjoy!"

Korg EMX tutorial: Sound design

Published on Jan 11, 2016 LousyFacelift

"Now that the Electribe 2 came out, many people describe the drum sounds of the EMX as flat or static but I think they are a great source for sound design. In fact the whole machine is. Please take a moment to listen to what I dialed up here. ;)"

Custom colored highlights & buttons.

via this auction

"Up for sale is this Roland Juno 106 Synthesizer in amazing condition.

Two slight details to mention. The 4th F# key is responsive to slightly stronger pressure than all other keys but it's not a big problem and does not affect overall functionality.

The second detail is that, like with many many other Junos, the Chorus is very ( and I do mean very) slightly noisy. However, this is not an aesthetically displeasing sound. It sounds like distant ocean waves (it's technically white noise in phase). But this can be easily fixed.

These two details are the only reason why I put this synth under "Good" rather than "Very Good or even "Mint".
Everything else works absolutely perfectly & sounds incredible. Has the Blue Meanie Mod by SynthSpa (Which in no way change the sound of the original Juno, it's just more stable, and looks spanking.)

Dave Smith Oberheim OB-6 SN 00125 w/ Custom Wood Side Panels

The seller also has alternate wood side panels available here and here.

Fantastic analog sound that you just can’t get anywhere else, with genuine discrete VCOs and a state-variable analog filter, coupled to analog distortion and digital effects, a sequencer and arpeggiator, and a quality keyboard with velocity and pressure sensitivity.

I made new solid wood end-pieces for this synth out of figured maple, dyed black and finished with glossy de-waxed shellac for maximum chatoyance.

The only thing stopping me from describing this synth as “mint” is that it suffered one minor drop from waist height onto carpeting (and my foot). One of the original wood ends cracked, and there are a few small scuffs under the mod wheel housing. (See photo.) The chassis is otherwise unharmed, all controls work and feel like new, and the synth sounds and functions perfectly."

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 W/Tauntek Upgrade V3.3

"This baby is in very nice shape and working perfectly. It has the Tauntek V10.6 firmware upgrade which adds many midi features..

One of the first fully programmable polyphonic analog synths, the Prophet 5 is the most classic synthesizer of the eighties! It is capable of a delightful analog sound unique to Sequential's Prophet series in which the P5 was King! Five voice polyphony - two oscillators per voice and a white noise generator. The analog filters, envelope and LFO all sound great and are extremely flexible. The P5 had patch memory storage as well, which scanned and memorized every knob setting for storing and recalling your sounds - a desperately needed feature at the time!
Rev 3.3 is capable of taking a MIDI retrofit, (Which this has)."
