OB6 Mono/Unison 1-6 Voice Illustration/Improv

Published on Dec 28, 2018 Kris Lennox

"The OB-6's place as one of the finest polys on the market is (I assume!!) by this stage likely without question. But the big question is: is the OB-6 also one of the finest monosynths DSI has ever produced?!

In mono mode it is brutal. For around the first minute of this video I'm layering the voices, starting with only one, through to all 6. This gives a good sense of the size of the sound. Sometimes a sound can be 'too big' - which is where the voice-layering/stripping possibilities are very useful.

At around 1:13 I'm turning the detune knob - hence the wider sound. Again, great sound.

Towards the end of the improv, the tone reminded me of Chicane's music. I think the track is called 'Fibreglasses', but I could be wrong, as I haven't listened to it since the album release. I'm probably not even playing it in the correct key!

PS excuse any errors - this was a literal 'sit down and hit record' improv as a Friday-night break from a transcription project I'm working on.

All best
Kris"

"This Kurzweil K250 was part of Jim Johnson's (Composer for the WWE) personal studio. It has been tested and is fully functional This Kurzweil K250 is in great condition. Only cosmetic wear is two caps missing on the "Tune" and "Instrument A Group" sliders. The Tune slider shaft is bent slightly but still works well. Includes the power supply which also works as a sustainer pedal for the keyboard itself."

X1L3 - circuit bent casio SA-46 - power electronics and harsh noise

Published on Dec 28, 2018 X1L3

"20 minute PE set to check out the noise potential. Probably a bit long and drawn out in terms of demo material, but if you're into this stuff you're probably used to full C60 outings etc. Transition from navicon torture technologies type drone to an escallation into noise at 7.10. If you hate this sort of stuff i probably already know this and the sun will still rise in the morning :)

Where to get and what's in there below:

Drone is constantly triggered via midi as i don't have three hands. The rest is just hands on manipulation and experimentation to see how it behaves in the context of drone and power electronics performance. Filter as a very hot resonance peak when the res is cranked which can be used to cut into the delay loop, even when the loop feedback is maxed out and trying to inject additional audio into it becomes tricky.


Fitted with a monophonic midi interface. The board is polyphonic but the amount of routing and circuitry required to implement this via midi isn't doable in the space available. The compromise is still cool though, giving a mix of automation that can be played over, plus being a bent machine it can pull off all sorts of strange stuff when you spend a bit of time getting to know it. The standard format on the spectrum of nice to nasty - melodic to harsh noise all loaded up in this one.

It has a resonant filter, 'ruiner' ringmod/distortion and a digital delay configured as a circuit bent delay pedal might be - that is untethered feedback and filtering for texture and noise generation and manipulation. Also added is a global pitch control with fine and coarse dials."

The Curve of Time | Eurorack Modular Synthesizer

Published on Dec 28, 2018 Lightbath Lightbath

"Live performance multitracked to Zoom F8, mixed in Logic with additional processing.

This configuration is a variation on my Moogfest case but it’s patched differently and most notably uses Stages as a sequencer into Marbles as a quantizer."
