RMIF Elsita Soviet Electro


Published on Jan 15, 2018 Zachary Berry

"Got an RMIF Elsita analog drum module off eBay and have been playing around to see what it can do. They were apparently produced in Russia in the late 80s. Here I'm triggering it from the 707 - four of the 707 outs are going into the Elsita.

Here's a breakdown:

808 Snare: Volca Sample through Wedge reverb - nothing special about the wedge other than it looks cool :)
707 hats
All other drum sounds are from the Elsita. They are being ran through the Moog Werkstatt's VCF.
Bass: Volca Bass (with Logic's Echo plugin)
Pads: Alpha Juno (with the Valhalla Shimmer reverb plugin, played on the Keystep)
And the Flashback pedal wasn't used, it ended up being too much and I was too lazy to get a longer cable."

DOPPELGÄNGER/ Prophet-6, OB-6, System-8, Sub37 + More


Published on Jan 15, 2018 MR TUNA Music

"This time around JarJar Bass starts us off with another cool line from the Prophet 6, and then we come in with some 707 from the TR8 and some swelling arpeggios from the System-8. I'm sure there's some Juno-106 at some point, and then we get a classic Moog bass from my favourite patch on the Sub37.
Somewhere down the line we don some keys on the P6 and OB6 and then just get into the zone for a while. As always Squarp Pyramid is capturing the performance live, from the synths back to the synths!

Moog DFAM + RML Electron Fuzz Custom: Sneak Preview


Published on Jan 15, 2018 Genshi Media Group

"::| WARNING: Extreme Frequencies Ahead! A really good pair of Headphones or Stereo Speakers is highly recommended! |::

This is just a quick, sneak preview of the Moog "Drummer From Another Mother" (DFAM) immediately after unboxing (I didn't read the manual or even let it warm up like you are supposed to!) I have it paired up with the Retro Mechanical Labs "Electron Fuzz Custom" module, which I will be doing more in-depth videos on (including a full description video for the guys at RML) and also featuring the Empress Effects "Echosystem Dual Engine Delay". Stay tuned for more videos this week of both the DFAM and the Electron Fuzz Custom!"

"Jonte Knif is a genius designer of top-top-top-notch audio equipment. He makes some of the best mastering gear in the world, notably the unparalleled Soma equalizer. A few years ago he decided to put his mastery of electrical engineering and tube topology to the test by building an all-tube analog synthesizer, the Knifonium. The first batch of 6 saw two bought by Hans Zimmer (they are used subtly in the Interstellar soundtrack, and less subtly as a guest synth in the Blade Runner soundtrack). The second batch of 6 brought improvements to the routing and performance-based usability. This is from the second batch, and is currently one of 12 in the world - and the only one in this colour! (all the others are reddish wood, as opposed to this dark stain).

Simply put, this is the biggest sounding raw-sound I've ever heard from an instrument. The all-tube build allows you to overdrive various tube types at various points in the signal chain, layering nonlinearities into complex tones that react to your performance. And it's not just the core sound: there's a ton of performance tools, such as a buttery-smooth XY joystick that's assignable to tons of parameters, velocity sensitivity, aftertouch (also assignable to various things), a very shapeable LFO, and a second full assignable envelope besides the standard VCA. It's honestly absurd. The best instrument I've ever played.

This is a unique, rare piece that will add real tonal power and texture to your work. Take advantage of my momentary lapse in judgement and need for funds and grab this. Jonte will be building more, but the wait time is very long.

Includes the huge power supply, solid flight case, and a full set of extra tubes!"
