Six-Trak - tips, tricks & firmware update


video upload by Espen Kraft

"I recently upgraded the firmware in the Six-Trak to V14. Among other things this makes it possible to detune the oscillators in Unison mode, by using the "fine frequency" parameter.
Free/locked LFOs are also one of the features. Thanks Jack Z for sending me this!

The Six-Trak arpeggiator is also notoriously difficult to sync up using anything but the Drumtraks, but I recently found out that the ISLA2400 has the ability to adjust its clock output to a value of 1 -99ms and the Six-Trak requires a 20ms clock pulse to sync up, and once dialed in the Six-Trak follows quite nicely, very good news in terms of live gigs."

MFOS Noise Toaster (Luna_NT) Analog Synthesis Demo and Tutorial


video upload by CatSynth TV

"The Luna_NT was a custom build of the Noise Toaster from Music From Outer Space (MFOS). It is basically a full analog subtractive synthesizer voice, with VCO, VCF, VCA and two modulation sources: AR envelope and LFO. We go over each of the parameters of this instrument in detail and provide a basic tutorial on analog subtractive synthesis in the process.

Luna Lab Noise Research, which created this instrument, apparently no longer exists. However, one can still get the original Noise Toaster, including the PCB designed by the late Ray Wilson, as a kit from https://synthcube.com

You can also find the original design at https://musicfromouterspace.com

01:22 Basic demo including bass sounds
02:51 VCO, and modulation with LFO and envelope generator

Nerding out with Kawai K5 and Strymon TimeLine Delay [demo]

video upload by State Shirt

"You'll never believe what we found sitting on the curb in our neighborhood a few months back. This fully operational Kawai K5 digital synth! A neighbor put a few keyboards on the curb and posted an ad to Craigslist. I guess the original owner got sick of additive synthesis. So we took the Kawai home and fired it up. It's a digital synth made in 1987, and seems to have it's own unique sound. I decided to plug it into my trusty Strymon TimeLine delay and see if I could come up with a few sounds and some song ideas for my new album. After many months, I finally completed the demo of the two together. :)"

Nostalgia 1989: Yamaha SY77 [demo]

video upload by State Shirt State Shirt

Chameleons intro.

"I've lusted after the Yamaha SY77 ever since I was a kid, but could never afford one until recently. I just picked this one up on eBay. It's beat up and a few things are broken, but for $300 it was a steal. I hadn't thought about this instrument for years—and it's weird finally being able to play through it considering how much I wanted one as a kid.

Demo at the end features Strymon BigSky and Strymon Deco. Signal chain is SY77 » BigSky » Deco. Putting Deco last in chain gives a unique vibe—the Tape Saturation really mellows out the rough edges, and the Doubletracker can add some nice 80s sounding modulation. I didn't spend any time writing any patches for the SY77—I just used some factory sounds and whatever the previous owner had already saved."
