SKULPT SYNTH - volca keys/roland boutique on stereoids ? | an Ambient jam with SPECULAR TEMPUS

Published on Nov 29, 2018 Funk Tree

"SKULPT SYNTH; Case is cheap but voice is rich. Filter is solid with great low end response. Stacked voices sound very close to a DSI voice. Drive 'circuit' is much better than on the monologue. Voice structure is unique and clever. Using launchpad pro as MIDI controller helps me to get expressiveness transformed to Skulpt's mod matrix. Did I mentioned Specular Tempus as best verb for ambient ... "

OB-6 does Max Richter

Published on Nov 28, 2018 Kris Lennox

"Max's 'Dream 13 (minus even)', performed on/arranged for OB-6.

Original here - [embed below]

I omitted the A section repeat; I feel it works well without it.

The original is actually a cut & paste job - the cello part is a single take dropped in (piano part is also cut/paste at repeat points - you'll hear it on the original if you listen closely). I wonder if the cellist was paid to record only two notes, or was paid for each time the sample is used! Short recording session, for sure!

Bass sounds good. I'm intentionally emphasising the upper-end fizz of the SEM filter on the bass part, as it's such a distinctive sound.

Taking an acoustic work and giving it a synth arrangement such as this certainly isn't for everyone, but that's ok - it is just some fun :) Plus, as always, the Obi sounds great.

All best
Kris"

Max Richter - Dream 13 (minus even)

Published on Aug 10, 2015

"Acclaimed Britsh composer Max Richter has written a new landmark recording: SLEEP is 8 hours long – the equivalent of a night’s rest – and is actually and genuinely intended to send the listener to sleep. 'It’s an eight-hour lullaby,' says its composer, Max Richter.

The ground-breaking new work is scored for piano, strings, electronics and vocals – but no words. 'It’s my personal lullaby for a frenetic world,' he says. 'A manifesto for a slower pace of existence.'"

"Well, apparently, the creator of VCV Rack doesn't want us to have a social life, or a job, or relationships... The VCV Host and Host FX were introduced this week, and oh man, they are beautiful! With using them, we can load VST instruments and effect in VCV Rack, and control\modulate them within VCV Rack with the available modules.

In this video, I go through the different sections of Host and Host FX, and then I build a couple of patches with using Form, Kontakt, Battery, Wider, Arturia's Buchla Easel with the modules of VCV Rack."
