ST Modular - Yaksha´s Fate (Micro Rings)

Published on May 26, 2018 Stefan Tretau

"Yaksha´s Fate is a smaller version of the Mutable Instruments Rings Resonator. It highlights all tweakable knobs on top and hides those affecting tune and pitch - very handy while playing live."

lucky one - Prepared Jam [Dreadbox Nyx, Moog, Elektron, Novation, Ableton]

Published on May 26, 2018 lucky one

"Here is a new jam with my awesome analog synth. Visit my website for more videos, music and a free sampled instrument made from the Dreadbox Nyx : http://luckyone.be

I prepared a bunch of midi loops in Ableton Live to make a song structure. All synth sounds are played live by my three analog synth:
- Dreadbox Nyx (paraphonic) : lead and solo
- Moog Slim Phatty (monophonic) : bass and solo
- Elektron Analog Keys (polyphonic) : pads

The synth are mostly driven by the midi loops in Ableton Live, using the Ableton Launchpad to switch between loops, except when I use the Novation Circuit to play the melodies.

For the fun, I used many cameras to shoot the jam, including my kids' cameras ;-)

As this is a prepared jam, I am maybe less natural and fluent, but the track structure is more complex and interesting, so I will keep on improving this setup!"

Playlist:

1. Moog Grandmother Patch Demo (5 total, 2 w/ Daft Punk sequences) - SYNTHSPO #004

Moog Grandmother Patches (5 total, 2 w/ Daft Punk sequences) - SYNTHSPO #004
Here are a couple patches I recorded the other day, the latter four of which are from the Grandmother user manual. (I wanted to record the whole set for 14 but also want to move on to some actual music making!) For those of you wanting to hear what this synth can do, I hope this provides a broader sense of its sonic capabilities (even if a bit self-indulgent at times with the Daft Punk...). Strymon El Capistan used a couple times throughout for delay, as well as the TC Electronic Hall of Fame 2 reverb pedal.

To skip around:

00:00 Aerodynamic (patch *not* from the manual)
03:14 Dynasty Plucks
04:53 Funky Robot
06:27 Showdown Guitar
07:32 Haunted Cave

2. Moog Grandmother + Strymon El Capistan (Boards of Canada Sequence) - SYNTHSPO #003
3. Moog Grandmother Semimodular Synth (Stranger Things-inspired Sequence) - SYNTHSPO #002

New Syncussion SY1-M by PsyCo X

via PsyCoX

"THE SYNCUSSION SY1-M KIT IS A FAITHFUL REPRODUCTION OF THE CLASSIC 1970'S DRUM SYNTHESIZER WITH THE ADDITION OF MIDI. THE POWER SUPPLY HAS ALSO BEEN ENHANCED TO PROVIDE SILENT OPERATION.
KIT TO INCLUDE: PCB'S, POWDER-COATED AND PRINTED METAL ENCLOSURE, SLIDE POTENTIOMETERS, SLIDER CAPS,
AN RF CHOKE FOR THE POWER SUPPLY FILTER
AND A PRE-PROGRAMMED ATMEGA328"

Demo posted here yesterday. I originally thought this was a build of the TTSH SY1 clone by PsyCo X. Apparently it's not. It's actually a new project by designed by simon cox aka psycho x, and has nothing to do with the human comparator.

Erika on Analog Synthesis | Red Bull Music Academy

Published on May 23, 2018 Red Bull Music Academy

"In this episode of Studio Science, recorded in her home studio in Detroit, Erika uses the same Roland SH-101 synthesizer she was first tasked with upon joining Ectomorph two decades ago to break down her approach to analog synthesis. She details how synthesis lies at the root of her creative process and explains how she uses it to create sketches of songs, as well as improvised performances.

From an early age, Erika showed an affinity for technology and using it to express herself. At age 13 she was running a Bulletin Board System from her bedroom. In 1997, after moving to Ann Arbor, Michigan, she joined local techno outfit Ectomorph and “went to bootcamp,” as she recalls, learning about programming and performing live electronic music. Two years later, in 1999, she set up erika.net, a freeform streaming radio station that ran for 17 years. Today, the producer and musician continues to perform and release music both on her own and as one-half of Ectomorph alongside Brendan M. Gillen, with whom she also runs the Interdimensional Transmissions label.

The Red Bull Music Academy is a global music institution committed to fostering creativity in music. We celebrate music, its culture, and the transformative minds behind it. Begun in 1998, the Academy has taken the core principles that underlie its annual workshop for selected participants and applied this curatorial approach to events, lectures, and city-wide festivals throughout the year."
