A 60's Moog Dream (breath Controlled)

"So here is another quick demo of using just my Moog Mother 32 with 1 addition which is a Manhattan MA32 Filter...otherwise this is pure Moog Mom 32 AND most of this is being breath controlled by a Pulplogic breath controller tile (still prototyped). I could not do this without Pulplogic's wonderful work on this breath controller tile...for all you Eurorack people."

A Review on the Electronic Music Works WCS-1x Synthesizer

You can find the full review on Creative Tech Nerds here.

"If a Moog Modular had babies, they might look and sound like the EMW WCS-1x. If you're looking for a truly distinctive synth with a beefy "Moog-like" sonic signature, you need to give the WCS-1x a serious look. At a street price of just under $300.00 ( U.S. dollars ), the WCS-1x also happens to be an incredible bargain. Tip to the wise: Snag a couple of these mini- monsters while they're still being made!"

DX5 playing Depeche Mode "Any Second Now" (Instrumental)

Published on Feb 28, 2017 DX5

"Backtrack recorded on Pro Tools. Most of the sounds are from the Roland Promars, including the first noise snare (the original song was recorded at the time Vince Clarke used his Jupiter 4 with same filter and VCO as the one in the Promars).

Keyboards:
Upper: Roland Promars MRS-2
Mid: Roland JP-8000

Backtrack played on a Revox B77 MkII with BASF tape.
Original track composed by Vince Clarke.
Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara
* There is a "flutter" effect, noticeable at the beginning, due to Revox mechanical limitations (I tried to dump the backtrack on two different units with the same results)"

"It is in excellent condition with all of the pots, buttons and LCD functioning properly. There is very slight cosmetic wear - the kind that would come with a unit of this age that has been well looked after and used exclusively in a smoke-free studio.

In 2016, it was upgraded by Jay Lemak of Synths When (Toronto) with a triordial power supply. This alleviated a slight but noticeable mechanical noise and provides all of the assurance that a reliable, modern power supply has to offer."

"This moog is in perfect functional condition, with no issues of any kind. She sounds absolutely amazing and is super-duper stable. All knobs, switches, mod wheels and functions are in perfect working order. She's just come back from the tech for a full service & modern power cord with a clean bill of health, and she is easily the nicest I've had the pleasure of playing..."
