EMS Synthi AKS demo
Published on May 2, 2017 kovalmoog
"This demo was recorded on 8-23-2015, after repairing and restoring the unit, which not belongs to me.
Being a pretty rebel synthesiser and with its own philosophy, we try to generate sound resources reasonably controlled, and not to fall in a purely random use.
First, we try to synthesize those descending sweeps heard in the first part of "Oxygéne 2" (Jean-Michel Jarre, 1976), before the main lead part.
After that, we visited the typical sequence of "On The Run" (Pink Floyd, 1973), although from a very free approach, we didn't intend an exact recreation. Nevertheless, the 8 notes entered in the sequencer are exactly those used in the original theme (exhaustively verified).
The AKS's line output was processed thru a Strymon Timeline, using various delays with modulations applied on its feedback.
Esta demo fué registrada el 23-08-2015, tras reparar/restaurar la unidad, la cual no me pertenece.
Siendo un sintetizador tan rebelde y con una filosofía propia, intentamos generar recursos sonoros razonablemente controlados, y no recurrir a un uso puramente azaroso.
En primer término intentamos generar las clásicas ráfagas descendentes que se escuchan en la primera parte de "Oxygéne 2" (Jean-Michel Jarre, 1976), antes de la aparición del lead principal.
Luego visitamos la típica secuencia de "On The Run" (Pink Floyd, 1973), aunque desde un enfoque muy libre, no es una recreación exacta. No obstante, las 8 notas ingresadas en el sequencer son las que se usaron en el tema original (dato exhaustivamente comprobado).
La salida de audio del AKS fué procesada por un Strymon Timeline, usando diversos delays con modulaciones aplicadas sobre la realimentación.

"Anushri is a monosynth like no other. In addition to its analog VCO/VCF/VCA and digital modulation sources, it includes a fun and immediate note sequencer with step-by-step recording, and a gritty 8-bit drum machine with a truly original control interface.
Mutable Instruments did what no other synth manufacturer dared trying before: enrich the VCO with an auxiliary digital oscillator, which can be used as a FM source, a sync signal generator, or – if you don’t mind having some digital signal flow in the audio chain – an additional detuned audio source for fattening the VCO sound."

"EDP WASP Synthesiser in full working order with Elby Designs MIDI retrofit which means it can be used with modern sequencing tools. Some cracks to the case which is not unusual for this model and battery compartment shows signs of corroded batteries however it has been modified to allow use of PP9 battery. Comes with non-original mains adaptor. P&P price includes insurance."

Novation Circuit Live Set Practice
Published on May 1, 2017 Nemecio Martin
"Me practicing Putting together a live set to play out this summer. this is the first attempt, so i do make some mistakes. Also, the second song doest really go to well with set. I definitely need a real launch pad **hint hint** novation, to use with the ipad. The Gear I'm using is a novation Circuit, novation launchpad app, and a korg sample. The ipad is set to the master clock controlling the tempo sync to the other devices. had to use midi offset to -32 to get it on beat."
Spotted this one on discchord.
