OB-6 Sequential Dave Smith Instruments (Unboxed and Sound Demo)

"The Sequential OB-6 Module 6-voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer Module routed through a Strymon BigSky Reverb pedal. Sequential is the new name replacing the old name Dave Smith Instruments. For some reason online retailers such as Sweetwater had it labeled under Dave Smith Instruments still. So not sure what the deal is, buuuuttt this Synthesizer is a beast! Definitely worth the money!"

"Takla Makan is the artist name of Tony Allgood.

During the 1980s Tony played keyboards in a variety of bands including 'Cairo' and 'Not Before Time'. In 1986 he started producing his own synthesizer instrumental music under the name 'Takla Makan'.

His musical output is very much inspired by the work of Mike Oldfield, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre and Tangerine Dream."


"I've got an overdrive module and I'm going to use it."

m3ld, pronounced 'meld', features two long format tracks, one in Dm (the saddest of all keys) and the other in Cm. And, yes, I probably did over do the overdriven synth lead sound on these two pieces. I just love a sawtooth VCO going into a highly resonant filter which then feeds an output limited high gain amplifier. There's something about the simplicity of that plaintive solo sound which gives it a wonderful and emotive ambience. I've long been inspired by the work of Mike Oldfield, and although I can't play guitar to save my life, I can't help but try to mimic the feel of his solo guitar work.

The other sound that I really like, and I've used it several times before as well as on m3ld, is the airy short vocal sound from the father of sampling, the Fairlight CMI. It's a 'preset' called 'ARR1'. When I was 15 I so wanted a Fairlight. Not only because Mike Oldfield and Jean Michel Jarre had one and it could do that sound, but also because it had a cool lightpen and a screen that had lots of wavy lines on it. Sadly, although I have fixed a few CMIs as part of my old day job, for my own compositions I have had to use samples of the real thing.

When I was younger I would spend hours writing album cover notes. And, at the end of these notes, would be the obligatory gear list. With pride I would write down a variety of home made gadgets (making them sound really quite mysterious) as well as my little Moog Rogue, Amdek RMK-100 and Roland RS-09. These days, I could write my gear on the back of a postage stamp; a small Oakley Modular, a Nord Lead A1, and a bunch of plug ins. However, for plug ins notable mention must go to U-He's Diva, Repro and Colour Copy, Synapse's The Legend, and Valhalla's Ubermod. Kids today don't know how lucky they are.

Roland SH-09 Bass Sequence


Björn Fogelberg

"This is what a fully working SH-09, an analog monophonic synth from 1980 sounds like, when the sliders have been cleaned re-lubed. It's deep and rumbling in a way that I never have heard before even though I have owned this synth since the late 90s. Oh, and yeah I have also modded it so that I can use the Ext slider to hear noise. It's a very simple mod to make.

I just made this little sequence on my Arturia Beatstep Pro and connected it to the SH-09. No effects, filters etc was added to the recording. The only thing I adjusted was turning up the volume in the parts where I used filter resonance, which automatically turns down the overall volume."

"I put some custom purple knobs that were easier for me to use and it adds to the look. Also added the demo sticker to the front side panel when i got this and tore the ends for style. I like my instruments unique. The underside has some wear do to the rack i had it mounted to which does not affect the unit what so ever."
