Antonus Step Brother sequencer + Roland System 101

Published on Apr 23, 2020 wutierson

"What a great company for a vintage Roland System 101. All sounds coming in real time from the Roland System 101, no overdub was done. Step Brother brings the sequence, modulations and events to make the multi-timbral sensation, of Bassdrum, Snare-noises, and Bassline, ratcheting and with all accents. Only bit of external spring reverb added. Breaking the one oscillator Mono-synth, Mono-timbral label."

"Earth Day" with Roland SH-101, TR-606, and Strymon Big Sky!

"'Earth Day' with Roland SH-101, TR-606, and Strymon Big Sky!

I'm trapped at home, so I decided to look at all these photos of the various places I've been and dream about seeing more soon. I received the Strymon Big Sky pedal yesterday and @Michael Smith suggested I use it with the Roland SH-101. So, I programmed up a basic sequence and used a simple beat with the TR-606. Please let me know what you think. Take care, Sam."

WHITE PONGO by Everett Dudgeon & Allan Ryppl

Published on Apr 22, 2020 EverettDudgeon138

"I'm unfortunately locked out of my studio space for the foreseeable future due to quarantine so I've been going through some files on my computer and decided to put a few tracks out. This one is longer and pretty chilled out.

Allan is on the Strat running through the Roger Linn Adrenelinnn iii Guitar Effects Box (Which is also doing the tribal drum beat).

I'm on the Prophet-X playing a Rhodes patch with a phaser on it and a nice blend of orchestral strings and Solina-esq synth strings near the end.

Enjoy!

The title comes from the 1945 film of the same name."

Memories of Green (Vangelis)

Published on Apr 20, 2020 Michael Geyre

Thought this one was pretty cool. Incorporating the bleeps and bloops of an old school handheld video game into music.

"I've tried to recreate 'memorie of green' in Blade Runner
that "blip blip" sound in the back was made using that game (Ufo master blaster, 1978)
Raphael Preston had to play it (it was given to him by Vangelis)
I thought it'd be funny to show that the sound was not made using a System100 or other vintage synth .."

Sculpting Time with a Modular Synth

Published on Apr 22, 2020 MAKEN0ISE

"When we use a powerful and open-ended tool like a modular synthesizer, we have the option of doing everything all at once all the time. And it’s really easy to do it. Keep patching and patching, adding more and more, and you end up with a big beautiful mess! and that can be great. But we also have the option of bringing things in and out, increasing and decreasing density, changing ranges. Sculpting a block of time into something with more character and nuance."

Shakmat Announces 2 New Modules for Superbooth 20 Home Edition

via Shakmat:

"For this Superbooth 20 home edition, the Belgian eurorack manufacturer announces two new modules joining their catalog : the Bard Quartet, a programmable four channels quantizer, and the Dual Dagger, a compact high pass and low pass stereo filter."

The Bard Quartet

This module is an easily adjustable four channel quantizer thanks to its intuitive keyboard and simple user interface. Scale, octave shift and I/O assignation is quickly and independently editable per channel. The harmony feature lets you store and recall (with the knob and through CV) the 4 channel’s settings, making progressive harmonies, chord creation or any evolutive harmonic arrangement an easy peasy task. The module has a non volatile memory containing 80 harmonic configurations. As we all know, playing in tune is cool but controlable detuned harmony is way cooler, that's why the Bard Quartet features a micro tuning function, where each note of each channel is detunable independently!

The Dual Dagger

This module is a double sided weapon, sharpened to cut low and high frequencies. The Dual Dagger chops stereo spectrums with familiar and appropriate controls for the low pass and the high pass filter section. The Band Pass function turns the dual filter into a band pass filter, with control over frequency, bandwidth and independent resonance for each slope! The module is carefully calibrated to share the exact same parameters on both audio channels but thanks to the pan function, it is easy to unlink the cutoff frequencies of each side, which leads to a whole new territory of stereo treatments!

A Chilean synth ad. I think this is a first for the site. Looks like the TV commercial is from Audiomusica.

The end reads:

Which translates to:

Mario Blooper Meets Chase Bliss Audio Blooper

Published on Apr 22, 2020 GLASYS

"Messing around with the underwater theme from Super Mario Bros using the latest pedal from Chase Bliss Audio - Blooper. Blooper is a looper pedal unlike any other one I've seen, there are so many fun ways to modulate and mangle your loops.

I got this idea because I've been playing some Mario recently and the first thing that popped into my head when I got this pedal is those little squid creatures called Bloopers.

Gear used (other than blooper) - Sequential Prophet XL, Studio Electronics Boomstar 4075
