OB-6 + Medieval Chant (Salve Sancta Parens)

Published on Sep 7, 2018 Kris Lennox

"OB-6 does mellow jazz arrangement of Salve Sancta Parens. I transposed the vocals down to the key of G to give the sense of a high male voice, rather than the original female voice. G major also works well for the piece.

In terms of structure, I'm only using verse 2 from the original.

In the video I'm playing the arpeggiator accompaniment part. After recording this, I dropped in chords and a bassline. It may look as if the playing is out of time with the changes; the reverb mix is set to max, which gives a slight delay to when the chord is played and when it is heard.

The mellow jazz feel works well with Medieval music :) F#7#5 (F#7 aug) chord at 1:18 in this piece sounds good. The Obi has a great sound for mellow jazz. I'd say it is probably one of the styles it does best.

All best

The Son of Flynn on a Minimoog Voyager

Published on Sep 7, 2018 SYNTHWAY

"This is a simple, yet beautiful harmony from Tron: Legacy soundtrack. Once gain, with the beautiful Valhalla Vintage Verb.

Was having some fun with my beloved Voyager and while playing some G#m melodies, came with the right chord progression. The chords are not 100% because it wouldn't be very good on a solo line (heard it, tried to use same chords, didn't sound like the right choice), but they`re close enough.

The video is kind of dark, sorry for that.

Thank you for watching!"

"Future Retro 777 analog synthesizer in outstanding condition. This synth is like a Roland TB-303 on steroids; it can go way beyond acid bass. This is a rare early model with more aggressive overdrive than later models: it can really go crazy!

This 777 is immaculate and was serviced/calibrated/cleaned/upgraded by Future Retro in 2017. They installed the "Temp Comp" modification for pitch stability and tracking. This 777 also comes with the power supply and latest OS which adds bonus features to the sequencer."

"I started doing these because the first leaflet style manuals which arrived with my Roland Boutique synths were too small to read, and so abbreviated that I was left feeling a little underwhelmed. I wanted more. So I learned more, and tried a bunch of things and eventually took my notebooks and turned them into the missing manuals for these lovely little things."

The circuits are mostly analog with an interesting digital noise generator. There is a built in filter with resonance as well as a mixer with a send that goes to a DSP effects processor with some great sounding reverbs and delays. Each drum sound can also be used individually and there is an aux input so you could use and external effect on a drum like we did with the Strymon Magneto in this video.
