VCAs: Not Just Notemakers!

Published on Aug 8, 2018 MAKEN0ISE

"Why do people say 'You can never have enough VCAs'?!

The VCA, modulator of modulations, is the module that makes your modular modular."

NIMBY Vocal Synthpop - Song Practice 8 2018 Second Take ( Better? ) Z6

Published on Aug 8, 2018 VJ FRANZ K

With the Synthstrom Deluge. A bit Duran Duran meets Depeche Mode.

"This song is from my 2001 album, it's time to practice it now for this new machine, get ready to perform again!

I don't know if this sounds good or not - what's your opinion?
( yes, the audio was a little overloaded. )

The hardest thing to judge is the sound of your own voice."

Synthchaser #109 - LED Octave Transpose Switch for ARP Synthesizers - Pro Soloist, Odyssey, etc.

Published on Aug 8, 2018 Synth Chaser

http://www.synthchaser.com

"Introducing an innovative replacement for the obsolete and impossible to find ARP Octave Transpose switch found on the ARP Pro Soloist & Pro/DGX. Let me know in the comments what you think of this as a replacement! If there's any interest, I will also make one for other ARP synths like the Odyssey and Axxe.

This particular Pro Soloist also has my replacement 4034 filter submodule installed, which sounds just like the original, only better!

These switches, the LED sliders, and other parts are available through my website. I also repair and restore ARPs and other vintage synths for customers around the world."

An echo is a synthesizer's best friend

Published on Aug 8, 2018 once upon a synth

"Meet Paul, George, Suzy, Amy, Marvin, Victor, Mary, and Sarah. Synthesizers and delay pedals have been best friends for decades. Nothing can add new life to a dry synth like a lovely echo. Whether you use analog tape or clean digital, it doesn't matter.

If you’re feeling down and sad
Remember that it's not so bad
Pour yourself a glass of apple cider
And place an echo on your synthesizer

Roland System 500 Meets 100M

Published on Aug 8, 2018 theianboddy

"Roland System 500 being sequenced by the 182 module from the Roland System 100-M.

All the sound (except echo & reverb) are coming from the System 500.

Three voices:

1) 2 VCO bass line being sequenced from the 182.
2) High sequence is a third VCO not being sequenced but on hard sync with VCO1.
3) Phased White Noise percussion.

The System 500 555 module provides the master clock from the S&H Clock Out. This clocks the 100M 182 sequencer as well as both envelopes on the 540 module.

Playing the 182 sequencer live involves changing the sequence length as well as switching the 3V / 10V switch. The higher voltage really stretches the tuning for some sonic madness!

IK MULTIMEDIA UNO ANALOG SYNTH // HOW DOES IT SOUND?

Published on Aug 8, 2018 soundseasy

"In this Video we check out the new lightweight analog monosynth UNO from Ik Multimedia. This has got to be one of the cheapest truely analog synths on the market and it sounds great.

Uno does have an on board delay but no reverb. So we sent it directly into the Meris Mercury 7 reverb. Drum are all from the Elektron Digitakt.

What I found was the synth section sounded great. Nice fat analog Waveforms and two oscillators. It is only Monophonic though. It has a simple single LFO and basic envelopes. All in all you can get ripping bass and lead sounds which is what I expect most people will use it for.

Is it worth the $$$ yes, for sure."
