OP-Z live ambient session

Published on Nov 27, 2018 Nathan D Farrell

Spotted on the excellent discchord.

Playlist:
1. OP-Z live ambient session

Feeding OP-Z synths and samples to eos2 reverb and dubstation 2 delay effects on iOS, with sample drums going in dry with no effects added. Mixed in AUM and sequenced live.

2. OP-Z Ambient Session 2

Using the teenage engineering OP-Z as a controller and midi looper. Sounds recorded in AUM. Used audio damage effects apps, AudioLayer AU, bs-16i, NS-1, isymphonic, and ravenscroft piano. The midi from keystep is recorded by the op-z so that velocity can be played.

3. Op-z ambient session

Running Op-z through some effects. All the dry synth sounds are from the Op-z. Mixed in some effects using AUM, eos2 reverb, dubstation 2 delay, and Discord4.

4. Op-z ambient ASMR and lights

Op-z from teenage engineering. ASMR, lights, and music sequenced on the op-z.

5. Op-z ambient

Ambient beats and sounds sequenced by the Op-z from teenage engineering. Filmed the DMX light track.

"Is the JX-8P a poor mans Jupter 8? I would say no, they are very different sounding beasts! The JP-8 has more low end and is more powerful, but the JX-8P has very beautiful string, pad and lead tones.

To make an objective and fair comparison because of the built in chorus in the JX-8P I used for the Jupiter 8 a Boss CE-2w Chorus Pedal (new stuff, no vintage). The setting was an emulation of the old and famous CE-2 Pedal.

Around the first 6 minutes I demonstrate some typical classic sounds of both mashines and I tried to programm them quite comparable. I begin with two very famous keyboard hooklines. EUROPE and also ALPHAVILLE used for the original recordings a JX-8P as I made my research. Please inform me, if I am wrong!

Beginning about 6 minutes I messed around with the JX-8P and played sometimes the JP-8 as a counterpart.

Please enjoy the video and tell me your opinions about those two classic synths. Above all please forgive my when the output was not always equal. I tried to do my best of making a objective comparision. I didn't use additional effects or mastering.

Cheers, Ruediger"

"A little ditty on some mid-80s Roland gear: Jupiter 6, MSQ700 Midi Sequencer, TR505 drum machine and the SDE1000."

"**TIMING INDEX / SECTIONS BELOW** Here's my third and final (for now) video with the Moffenzeef Modular Stargazer. With more drones, more distortion, more dead dreams and NO TALKING. The first video of patches is linked below as is the walkthrough and demo. This video pairs the Stargazer with FX from tape delays, to BBDs, guitar pedals and modular units. There's some original dalek inducing analogue ring modulation from the Nervous Squirrel ring modulator and a little help from a Korg Volca Beats and a Korg Volca Sample.
