SpaceTrash RXTE Drum Machine Demo / How To

"How-to guide starts at 00:25
Drum pattern demos at 08:12

DIY drum machine just completed.
Inspired by early '80s drum machine sounds.
Not sample based - the sounds are virtual analog waveforms, noise and filtering.

Audio is straight from the line out of the drum machine."

New DIY drum machine coming to Etsy and eBay soon...

Update: SpaceTrash is the brand. I created a new site label for them.

via this auction

"This synth was recently serviced at Switched On in Austin, TX. It was given a clean bill of health with none of the battery corrosion issues these synths are notorious for.

It has very minor wear and tear to be expected for a synth this age.

There are custom walnut panels and base that are really quite attractive.

It has had a mod to add MIDI that works on channel 11."

Ouroboros System I • OR Drone

Published on Mar 16, 2020 Ouroboros Electronics

Also see the Ouroboros Subharmonic Drone Synthesizer

"More info/order: www.ouroboros-electronics.com

System I OR drone patch - a patch made by sending two oscillators and an audio rate LFO into the OR logic. Two of the oscillators are sent through attenuators before going into the OR to control their individual levels and influence on the OR output. The OR output is sent into a mult which is split to both the mixer output and also to the third attenuator which is then patched into the cv input of one of the oscillators producing a form of frequency modulation where it is being modulated by the sum of all three OR’d oscillators. The attenuator adjusts the amount of FM/feedback modulation. Though OR logics are mainly thought of as gate combiners - they can also be useful to produce a spectrum of sounds from crystalline and metallic tones to harsh dissonance. This patch demonstrates just one of many ways that the OR function can be used in the audio range. Reverb added via Eventide Space."

Sequential In The Spotlight Interview with STARLITE CAMPBELL BAND

You can find the interview on Sequential's website here.

"Suzy Starlite and Simon Campbell are a powerhouse songwriting and musical partnership specializing in contemporary folk and Americana. They are currently deep in sessions for “The Coat,” a new acoustic album which will be released in summer 2021. It features the Sequential Tempest interwoven with traditional acoustic instrumentation.

Suzy has a folk background (see for full details) and was featured in Bass Guitar Magazine in 2018. Simon released a contemporary folk/Americana album, The Knife in 2014 which was produced by Andy Seward and featured several highly-regarded musicians including Andy Cutting, Malcolm Stitt, David Kilgallon, and BJ Cole.


We chatted with Simon and Suzy on how they’ve been using the Tempest."
