Vintage Korg MS-20 & MS-50 Synthesizer Jam

Published on Feb 24, 2020 Perfect Circuit

"In this video, we pair a vintage Korg MS-20 and MS-50 with two SQ-1 sequencers to create sequenced bass lines and rhythms. Fully capable synthesizers in their own right, the MS-20 and MS-50 combine to form an even more powerful modular synthesizer capable of everything from generative soundscapes to brutal, heavy-hitting bass tones.

The MS-20 is a semi-modular keyboard synth originally released in 1978. At the time of its introduction, it was one of the most affordable synthesizers altogether—and with its snarling dual filter, external signal processor, and open-ended patch bay, it was destined to be a cult classic. The MS-50 was intended to act as an expander for the MS-20 or other modular systems. Unlike the MS-20, the MS-50 does not feature a normalled internal signal path, instead acting more like a true modular synthesizer. The MS-50 can certainly act as an instrument all on its own (with its own oscillator, filter, envelopes, VCAs, LFOs, and tons of CV utilities)...but when using the two instruments in combination, completely new possibilities emerge.

Duophonic from Monophonic with Beatstep Pro & Dark Energy

Published on Feb 24, 2020 DreamsOfWires

"Just a really simple trick people who are new to analogue synths might want to try. It'll work with any synth that has both a VCF that'll self-oscillate and external control over filter frequency. It'll work best if the filter can track 1v/oct with some stability. Also, you could substitute the Beatstep for another multi-channel CV sequencer or controller, such as a Korg SQ-1 in dual mode.

Basically, on certain filter designs, when resonance is maxed and it's frequency lowered it'll start to produce a simple sine wave (self-oscillation). In many synths this sine wave can be controlled melodically (with varying success), independently of the VCO. Here's how it works in this video:

One sequencer channel's CV output goes to the synth's VCO pitch input, and the other channel's CV out to VCF frequency input. The gate out goes to gate in as usual.

Firstly, get a single note playing and make sure you can hear the VCO, max the resonance, then reduce the filter frequency manually and you'll start to hear the filter self oscillating, which essentially creates a pitched sine wave. Adjust the frequency until it sounds like it is in tune with the VCO. You'll have to experiment with different tunings and octaves of both to get your desired result. Also, experiment with raising the resonance just enough to start self-oscillating, as this should lower the volume of the resonance against the VCO's volume, allowing you to hear both more clearly.

Now you can start knob twiddling on the sequencer, creating separate melodies on both channels, and even have different sequence lengths and time divisions for some polyrhythm fun.

New XOR Electronics NerdSEQ CV16 Expander

Published on Feb 24, 2020 XOR Electronics

"A small promo video about the new 'More CV 16' expander for the NerdSEQ Eurorack sequencer.
It adds 16 more CV outputs which are totally integrated into the sequencer.

The CV outputs can be either pitch or note scaled (in pairs of 0..10 Volt or -5/+5 Volt). Beside being outputs for notes or pitches with glide settings for each output, it also contains several modulators which can be routed to each output (pure or adding to the current voltage):
8 ASR (Attack Sustain Release) Envelopes with Attack, Release and Sustain settings for each Envelope.
8 LFO with the following waveforms: Sinus, Triangle, Sawtooth, Ramp, Noise and Random (randomly mixing through the waveforms).

The modulators can be manipulated in their stage and attributes from each sequencer step. The CV16 expander enhances the NerdSEQ with Polyphonic sequencing and recording within one or multiple tracks.

This is not a standalone product! It works only together with the NerdSEQ.

AE Modular: Patch Cable Update!!! #TTNM

"A video about patch cables?!

♥ SUPPORT: http://bit.ly/ttnm-support ♥

... yes indeed. They're soft and rubbery, made with silicone, very smooth to the touch, with golden pins (or maybe just gold plated, who knows) and I think they're nice.

Questions or comments? Go ahead and post them below! :) Thanks for watching! Check out my channel for more Synthesizer Music."

Studio Tour #3 - Peter

Published on Feb 23, 2020 SynthMania

"A visit to my good friend Peter - We spent a few hours in his studio and went through his equipment, which includes classics like Roland SH-1 and Juno-6, Yamaha CS-40M, Korg PolySix, but also modern equipment, and a great collection of guitars, fx, and amps as well. A huge thank you to Peter for sharing his knowledge and demonstrating the gear for us!"
