DSI Pro2: Sweet Fifteen - patches for meaning

Morning Strategy

"Making the first fifteen patches on my new DSI Pro2 was one of my favourite synth experiences ever. This was one of the first synths I got interested in, back five or six years ago, and I know now that I should have bought it then.

On a related note:

00:00 I got lost in a search for meaning
00:26 until the search became the meaning
00:57 a transition event
01:25 like an earthquake is to moving plates
02:14 extended and reduced to human life
03:13 as the growth rate spikes
04:18 mountains of guilt stream like fountains of shame
07:25 the impulse to buy, to force a conflict
08:51 until the infection settles into lethargy
10:35 a reflection; an inflection
18:43 the seed planted for future trees
20:56 where have the continents been
22:57 soft footsteps from the floor below
24:18 an echo that came before
25:17 an echo fed to itself

Korg MonoPoly w/ MIDI

"This MonoPoly is fully functional. All of the pots and switches have been treated (Caig) and last week the main PSU smoothing capacitors were replaced (see owner's manual KLM-376-MP, C13/14 etc.). The PSU rails (+/-15V and +5V) have been recalibrated to within the manufacturer's original tolerance and the ripple per rail has been measured to be <10 mV.

When I first got my MonoPoly, the front panel screws had rusted, or the surface finish on them had worn off, so I replaced them with button headed socket screws (2.5 mm, see pictures). I have fitted a MIDI interface (MidiPoly, instruction manual/details will be emailed to the winning bidder). This has been done without altering the original instrument, except that now the rear mains subpanel has an IEC mains inlet fitted (rather than a flying lead), with 5 pin DIN MIDI in and out sockets immediately adjacent to it. The front panel (this one is in good condition) is not modified in any sense (no additional switches or controls, for example). All of the original MonoPoly's functions are kept but fitting the MIDI interface adds the following functions:

# Key notes are sent and received as MIDI on the selected MIDI channel

# VCOs can be triggered individually by velocity

# Notes generated by the arpeggiator are also sent as MIDI

# Received Pitch Bend MIDI data alter pitch bend

# Received Modulation CC MIDI messages alter filter cutoff

# Received Portamento Time CC MIDI messages switch portamento on/off

# A new sample and hold modulation can be routed

# Keyboard action is significantly improved

# the EFFECTS button now does not reset the key assign mode to unison

# Arpeggio can be synced to MIDI clock"

Cavisynth Subway : Tips and Audio Demo

Robotopsy Robotopsy

"Some quick tips and audio demos for the SUBWAY of Cavisynth."

via Cavisynth

"A first VCO having four waveforms responds in frequency to 1V / OCT, the second VCO is absolutely identical, but it is possible to choose down to 7 octaves below the first and to vary its frequency to +/- 2 octave. You can turn it into a CV LFO. At – 7 octaves it oscillates so slowly that it becomes a controllable LFO in CV 1V/OCT and CV IN2 in exactly the same way.

With the “CF (CrossFade)” potentiometer it is possible to adjust the crossfade between the two VCOs in order to obtain very thick sounds.

You can choose between five wave formes for each VCO and if you select noise + noise you then have the punk mode (Fig.6) !

The Subway keep the chosen waveforms in memory after power off.

The CV2 input (0-5V) is successively assignable to each of the four potentiometers and the two waveform selectors."

2020/09 - Synth Programmer for Waldorf Microwave Demo

Stereoping

"Finally - the demo for the Stereoping Microwave Programmer - over 12 minutes full of short clips and subtitles - hopefully useful somehow. Up to 3:50 the sound only contains a non-related background music, the shown content did not have any valuable sound.

0:06 PREFS - Entering the Programmers PREFS mode, making changes to internal settings, automatic saving on exit
0:29 PATCH MODE - Entering PATCH mode, synchronisation of parameter data, stepping up/down through programs. Moving pots, display shows new and old value (in brackets), COMPARE and PEEK function
1:32 PARAMETER GROUPS - layout of Programmer's parameters in groups. Editing hidden parameters. WAVETABLE always available on encoder 4, solution for accessing the many WAVE ENV LEVELS/TIMES values with only 6 pots.
2:47 MODULATION MODE - how to edit the Microwave's modulation slots (normal and complex ones). Two dedicated pots for quickly setting VALUEs or ZEROing them out. Demoing the TEMP mode for direct change of modulation values through pots.
3:50 - EDITING SESSION, from here on the shown clips have sound. Starting with an INIT sound, the program is shaped into something nicer over 2 and 1/2 minute.
6:38 - RANDOMIZER - creating several sounds while changing the randomizers parameters. (Mind the volume, some aggressive sounds here)
8:12 - CHORD MEMO - playing with the 5 CHORD slots. Entering Chord SETUP to demo chord learning and STRUM.
9:30 - playing a pattern from a DAW, shaping a bass sound by Control Change messges making use of the Programmer's CC-to-SysEx translator

10:26 - MULTI MODE - finally a brief demo for the Programmer's MULTI mode. Please check the Programmer's PDF manual for details here.
