Ambient jam with the Sequential/Oberheim OB-6, Elektron Octatrack MkII, Eventide Space

Published on Nov 15, 2019 Jay Hosking

"A live, semi-improvised performance, all on hardware, and inspired by some time convalescing. It's my first time using the Octatrack for some ambient, droning sounds, and once again, it doesn't disappoint. As before, the Octatrack's scenes are the star of the show, allowing for me to fade in/out tracks, as well as add modulation and effects either by track or on the master. What a beautiful machine.

I've also been pretty keen to give the OB-6 a spin for a while, since I love that Oberheim sound and will never buy the vintage gear. Despite its classic tone, it's got a lot of great modern features... that I don't really take advantage of here. I simply started playing it and this patch (007) sounded so good that I had to record something. Next time.

Elektron Octatrack MkII — samples, track effects, master effects
Sequential/Oberheim OB-6 + Eventide Space — poly synth
Novation SL MkIII — MIDI controller for the OB-6

Written and performed within a 2-hour period, and uploaded as is, with only a little compression/limiting on the master.

Behringer Pro-1 vs Prophet 6 and Toraiz AS-1

Published on Nov 15, 2019 Starsky Carr

"A look at how close the Prophet 6 is to the Pro-1 demonstrating the sonic similarities and differences between Behringer's Pro-1 and the Pioneer DJ Toraiz AS-1 synth, which is effectively a single voice of the Prophet 6.

It's not a comprehensive comparison .. I've not played with the High Pass or FX or demo'd the additional capabilities of the P6 and Toriaz. This video is purely just to see if they share sonic fingerprints with the Pro-1.

Overview 1:10
Oscillators 4:10
Filter 6:30
Modulation and FM 15:06
Sync 17:36
Conclusion 19:16"

ELEKTRON ANALOG FOUR mk.1 + UNO DRUM // PURE ANALOG

Published on Nov 15, 2019 LESINDES

"This is another episode of PURE ANALOG here with ELEKTRON ANALOG FOUR Mk. 1 groovebox. Although A4 features a digital delay, chorus and reverb I did not use these as all the other on board FX of the synths that are being played hier in PURE ANALOG which is a project to find out and show the qualities of analog synthesizers and eventually also hybrids. And exciting Question is also how contemporary synths like this lush GRP A-2 or EREBUS NYX compare to vintage legends like MINIMOOG or ARP ODYSSEY or ROLAND JUPITER 4 etc. So this piece will be played and performed with different synths in the future track by track recorded in DAW without any equing or otherwise processed in DAW, no add modulation, reverb, saturation or other FX. Only a mastering compressor, EQ and Limiter is used on the sum. So what you hear is completely un-FX-ed material -- almost impossible to find these days!!!"

STG LFO Sync Test

Published on Nov 15, 2019 davidryle

"Suit and Tie Guy Envelope Generator in LFO A mode. This thing loops in SYNC mode with the other sync bus modules to give a wonderfully musical performance tool for rhythm and phrasing.

I used an Ian Fritz DDUVCO and Synthetic Soundlabs VCO throughan Ian Fritz 5 Pulser for the sound sources. An STG Soundlabs Post Lawsuit Filter was used on the SSL vco and a synthesizers.com Q150 ladder filter was used for the DDUVCO part.

A pair of Lexicon dual delays (MX200) added some tape delay DSP effects to the final signal.

The entire STG Soundlabs module suite can be bought from stgsoundlabs.com Check it out!"
