#jamuary2019 Day 4 - Elektron Digitone

Published on Jan 4, 2019 Oscillator Sink

"I had a real hankering for some Digitone action this evening, so I went ahead and got me some! The jam is 4 patterns (one for each section), but each pattern is only one bar long - they might seem longer because of a lot of conditional trigs. I worked that way because in my head I thought it'd be quicker - Jury is still out on that theory!"

Godwin Drummaker 45 Computer System

Published on Jan 4, 2019 Italian Vintage Stuff!

This is the first post to feature the Godwin Drummaker 45. You think you've seen it all, yet every year something new comes out of the annals of synth history. Be sure to check out the New Old label at the bottom of this post for more, and check out the Godwin Drummaker 32.

"The Godwin Drummaker 45 Computer System is an Italian Auto drum machine / Arpeggiator / Bass / Chord Arranger from 1976.

It was originally the rhythm section of the huge organ with the same name, but a few stand-alone units with a two octave keyboard controller were produced as well.

Very nice and warm analog sounds. It's quite complex, with many variations, less ompa-ompa compared to other similiar machines from that era.

Run through a Space Echo 301 with added chorus, echo and spring reverb."

Moffenzeef Stargazer & MSG II Drone Synthesizers

Published on Jan 4, 2019

"Moffenzeef has two standalone drone synthesizers, the full featured and gritty Stargazer which has a dual wavetable oscillator, sample rate reducer, dual resonant filters, three LFOs and distortion. We also used the smaller MSG II with Dwarfcraft Devices Hax 2 ring modulator pedal.

The Stargazer has 90 different waveforms letting you get a ton of different textures from the oscillators, it also has an expression pedal input to control the speed of the LFOs, in this video we used some Moffenzeef modules in a 4MS Pod case to control the LFOs.

The MSG II is smaller than the Stargazer, but has 8 different synthesis modes, so it can also produce many different sounds."
