Patch of the Week 80: Celebrating the Terminator Theme


Korg

First Halloween themed post of the year.

"For the third installment of Patch of the Week Vol. 18 – Halloween Horror History we recreated this intense theme with timpani, pads, synth brass, and more from wavestate."

10 ways to USB power your Korg Volca? with Ripcord from myVolts.


myVolts

"I was thinking last week, there must be 10 places around the house where I could find a USB port to power a volca, and there was! 🎶⚡😁✨⚡"

Prophet 5 Rev 4 Unison Lead

"A quick clip demonstrating Unison Mode while using the 'Vintage' knob to nicely detune the voices."

Analogue Solutions Colossus: Dual Touch Keyboards


Analogue Solutions

"The dual touch keyboards on the Colossus synthesizer are highly versatile and playable, and each features its own sequencer.

Here's one use case of the dual configuration, where the lead is played with the bottom keyboard while the top keyboard controls the pitch of bass section."

Strymon NightSky Studies


Patchwerks Seattle

"In this video resident expert Rae shares some of the sounds she made after taking the Strymon NightSky home for a few nights. Rae conducted 3 studies with the NightSky showing off some favorite sounds/modes while processing the Roland SH-01A.

Create vast soundscapes with just a few notes from your instrument. Apply mind-bending pitch and harmonic manipulation to your reverb tails, with synth-like filter sweeps. Enter a world of new sounds that blow away the boundaries of what is possible with reverb. With pioneers and adventurous sonic explorers in mind we created a reverb pedal that can go where none have gone before.

Reverberant Synthesis Machine.
NightSky is a reverberant synthesis workstation, and a powerful, hands-on experimental sound design platform. NightSky gives you real-time continuous control of reverb pitch/processing rate/core size, harmonics, and even a synth-like resonant filter with multiple modulation waveshapes, plus a step sequencer with variable glide. You haven’t heard a pedal like this before.

The Rules of Space and Time Have Been Rewritten.
New Sonic Territory.
NightSky is a reverb pedal you will want to get your hands on. Deep and powerful sound manipulation with instant response knob-tweaking and no menu diving set a new standard in experimental reverb sound design.

Warp Core Reverb.
NightSky achieves some of its most mind bending sounds by using a Variable Process Rate for its reverb core, allowing you to simultaneously change the size of the reverb as well as the pitch. This pitch change can be completely smooth, or quantized to a variety of musical scales. And it can be sequenced.

Harmonic Sculpture Machine.
Use Shimmer to shift the harmonic structure by selectable musical intervals. Add Glimmer to dynamically enhance the harmonic spectrum. Turn up Drive to generate saturated overdriven harmonics. Then sculpt the resulting signal with NightSky’s synth-like variable-resonance low pass filter.

Challenge The Conventions.
NightSky evolved from a desire to push the envelope and challenge the conventions of traditional reverb while also paying homage to the experimental reverberant sounds from decades past.

It started with the variable rate core. Once that was nailed down, we knew we had to complement it with a set of sound-shaping features that could take full advantage of the unique possibilities and expand them exponentially. This led us to a full-featured modulation section, a 4-pole resonant filter, and a unique Voice section to control the reverb’s harmonic structure.

"A little electro-pop number for this vid.
All written and sequenced in, so not a lot to look at in terms of a performance.
A bit of filter twiddling and then an ending played on the last few bars.
Some nice synthy sounds from Maschine though 😉👍


Hardware:
Maschine Mk2

Philip Glass - Einstein On The Beach KNEE 5 - Elka E9 Organ


peahix

"While running errands today, I found an Elka E9 organ on the side of the road. Against my better judgment, I wrestled the thing into my car, since I have a fondness for anything Elka ever since I had a Synthex years ago. When I got it home, I found it to be in good working order and sounding quite nice with some onboard phasing effects, so I thought I'd whip up an abridged rendition of Glass' KNEE 5 from Einstein On The Beach. This is the raw sound of the organ with no external effects or EQ. The G bass note sounds thin for some reason, not sure if that's just out this organ sounds, or if there's something wrong. This one goes out to Eddie Van Halen, RIP today, 10/6/2020."
