Akai Factory Samples 1985 | Make a song with these!

Espen Kraft

"The Akai S612/700/7000 factory Quick Disk library samples. By today's standards quite limited, at least on paper. I go back and make a track with these sounds, just as I did 35 years ago.

Going back to 1985 is always fun. My first sampler was the Akai X7000, the keyboard version of the S700, which in turn was the follow-up to the S612 so to speak, and it's hard to describe the sensation we felt when we tried sampling for the first time, it was like the gates of heaven opening up. If you weren't there you'll never understand, but making this video and song took my somewhat back to that place. Just because these factory samples brings back so many memories."

Michigan Synth Works Chronovore 303 Sequencer running Sonic Potions RE-303 CPU

Michigan Synth Works

"This is the Michigan Synth Works Chronovore 303 Sequencer running the Sonic Potions RE-303 CPU. This will likely be a premium option down the road where you can choose the stock Pixie CPU or the SP as an upgrade. Most of the features shown here are SP CPU exclusive like the chase lights in write mode, reverse/forward play, and MIDI note play."

via Michigan Synth Works

""Chronovore is a CV/Gate Sequencer based on the TB-303. The circuit was faithfully recreated with modern components in a small form factor suitable for eurorack. The device includes the Pixie u650 CPU which runs an emulation of the original 303 mask ROM for a genuine 303 experience. Since the hardware is identical to the 303 sequencer, other CPUs such as the Quicksilver or Sonic Potions are also compatible.

Features:

Accent, Gate, CV Outputs
Clock in (24 PPQN) and Run (active High) Inputs for sync
MIDI Input for MIDI sync and start as supported on Pixie
Adjustable slide time, stock, longer, longer, and REALLY long
Digital controlled Bank/Function controls with display (pattern groups are displayed as A-D instead of I-IV)

24HP, 25mm Deep

Current Draw: +12 65 mA, -12V 0 mA"

New Mexico Control Voltage Wavesplice Demo

Learning Modular

"This is a deeper demonstration of the wave crossfade/splice technique I showed in an earlier video [posted here], including using a wavetable oscillator near the end to get even more complex harmonics. The presentation was done live at a New Mexico Control Voltage online meetup in September 2020, with light editing at the end.

I have also covered this subject in depth for my Learning Modular Patreon subscribers: https://www.patreon.com/posts/wave-sp..."
