Ode to TR-8, the last jam


Published on Apr 15, 2018 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

Since I am giving away the Roland TR-8, I wanted to create a last jam with it, sort of a farewell song.

I am starting to get a bit of a cold, so apologies in advance if the mixing is off (cant really hear the levels properly) .. also there is a miss or two in the track, but what the heck, it is live from the heart and uncut.

Thank you TR-8 for all the good times, you will be missed.

Gear Used:

TR-8, Avalon bassline and the KORG volca keys. Keeley caverns delay + rev on the volca, el capistan delay on the bassline, bluesky plate reverb on the TR-8 for that old school vibe.

I start with a pre-looped drum track in reverse on the ditto X2 in the beginning.

Enjoy!"

E352 Cloud Mode 'World' Drums


Published on Apr 15, 2018 The Mad Music Machine

"We use the E352 & E370 in Cloud Mode to create some rhythms inspired by some of the sounds we heard at the WOMAD Festival.

The only sound sources in the patch are the E352 and voice 3 of the E370.

We use the pico sequencers to 'tune' the voices but the gates and the patterns are set by the Circadian Rhythms."

Update:

✯RARE✯ EDP Caterpillar for EDP Wasp Gnat Synth

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"An extremely rare 'Caterpillar' controller designed by Chris Huggett. The caterpillar has four ports on the back for controlling up to four EDP synthesizers via 7 pin DIN sockets. One link cable is also included (not pictured in this sale).

As you can see this has aged really well, and has been recently serviced by SRS prior to sale.

The two controls on the front panel are for:

1. selecting how many devices you want to control (1-4 or Voice setting).

2. Selecting Unison, Poly or Cycle, there is also a separate Hold setting that gives you the option of also selecting Unison, Poly or Cycle.
The unit powers off of a single 9V battery.

Note: There is a design flaw with the Wasp circuitry that does not allow the lowest C note (first key from the left) to trigger the Wasp. However by the time EDP designed the Gnat they fixed this problem and the lowest C note will trigger a Gnat, this has been tested as I also own a Gnat and Gnat Special. The unit has been tested working fully prior to listing."

Serge Modular Synth (Random Source) La Bestia II

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is a just-finished La Bestia II. This is the one with the all-new, all-R*S PCBs, re-designed with Serge himself. I've heard them called 5th Generation Serge and I think that's a pretty good description.

It comes with one of the R*S power supplies (a prototype so no labelling on this one) so you are ready to go out of the box. If you don't have any, I'll throw in half a dozen banana cables too."

I believe this is the first post to feature the mk II model. You can find a couple of previous posts featuring the original La Bestia here. Note with Serge, the names of systems correlate to configurations of various individual modules grouped into one panel. The individual modules themselves are not always new, but rather the configuration / system.

Curious if the manual is orange on one side and blue on the other? If not, why the two different color schemes. Note the second listing only has the blue disc, while the first has both blue and orange. If anyone knows, feel free to comment.
