Roland System-8 FM tones and melodies

video by MIDERA

"The first thing I did - wasn't this video. I first compared my JX3P to my System-8. I came to realize they are just so dissimilar. I can't tell if my JX3P is out of balance or the System 8 just doesn't do it justice, but anyway, I didn't like what I had done for a demo, so I dropped it and went to this, something I had been thinking about doing.

I spent the first few nights with the System 8 trying to see if it could replace my SY77. I learned very quickly that, no, it can't. The SY77 is the Prophet 5 of the FM world, in my opinion. Just super powerful, sounds beefy/sharp/thick, any of those adjectives. I just don't really get that feeling from the System 8. I think it's one of those things where it's a Jack of all trades, master of none. I haven't really been able to feel how the S8 will fit in to my studio/setup. Because of the first paragraph (comparison of JX3P and S8) I don't even think I could replace my JX3P either, so now I've got 3 devices where I previously had two.

I've stopped caring about how the S8 looks, and it DOES sound phenomenal, it just doesn't warrant me replacing anything else and that's a problem for me. It does have a ton of hands on controls, but I never feel like using them with FM anyway, so that doesn't really matter. Plus, the knobs just don't feel classy. But that's obviously a matter of taste. I have a lot to say on this matter - but honestly, I'll save that for the JX3P v S8 demo (that is, in no way, a very good demo/comparison).

So what do we have here? A bunch of FM-ish patches like pads and bells. So - hopefully you enjoy everything I did here. I messed up occasionally. Sorry about that.

Used Eventide Blackhole VST for reverb."

Custom Presets for Moog Subharmonicon Demo (No Talking)

video by Anton Anru

"«Undertones» is a collection of 50 patches: chords, sequences, basses, leads, plucks, drones, percussion, FXs. They are musical and experimental, soft and aggressive, mild and fat.

Get the soundset: https://bit.ly/3dmkYqd

All patches are divided into 3 groups: SEQ (30 patches), KBD (10 patches), TRG (10 patches). SEQs are the patches that use the Subharmonicon sequencer with internal or external clock. This group contains melodic, chord, and bass lines. Play button is on.

KBD patches are meant to be used with external sequencer, DAW or midi keyboard. Here you will find leads, plucks, chords, drones. Play button is off.

TRG patches use the Subharmonicon sequencer, but you will not hear the sound until you push TRIGGER button on the synth. These patches don’t use envelope triggering for each step (EG button is off), so you should launch the envelopes manually. There are chords, FXs, fast seqs in this group. Play button is on.

Each patch contains notes that explain how the patch works, what parameters worth tweaking during the playback, how to develop the timbre to get new sound. If you make all the settings consciously and try the things mentioned in the notes, you will learn lots of things about the synth and discover its true depth.

To recreate these patches you need up 5 patch cords."
