The 'Keith Emerson' Moog 901 series oscillator and controller...


video upload by noddyspuncture

"Less than a year after Keith got his Moog Modular, Bob extensively modified his 901 series oscillators and oscillator controllers. He made them much more stable, solid and reliable tuning wise. There are drawings of schematics of his modifications, which are dated February 1971. I have built a 901A oscillator controller and also a 901B oscillator from these drawings and here is the first time I fired them up and got them to work. Initially they didn't work because I discovered that the FET transistor - which I had bought over a year ago and was still in it's 'anti-static' bag - was actually dead..! It probably originated from China...? I can't remember. Anyways, after installing a generic (the wrong) FET from my stock it all started making noises. Of course, being the wrong component it now won't calibrate according to the instructions but I did manage to tweak the calibration controls by ear to get it to play on one of the octave settings. When I manage to source a good FET of the correct type I'm sure it will all behave as intended - or at least I hope so...!"

Waldorf IRIDIUM Official Soundset - Cinematic Edition Vol.1


video upload by WaldorfMusicChannel

"Cinematic Edition is available at: https://waldorfmusic.com/de/quantum-i...

Kevin Schroeder is a synthesizer sound designer. He has programmed sounds for well-known synthesizer brands, including the film composers Hans Zimmer, Trevor Morris and Paul Haslinger.

This soundset offers a multitude of complex "cinematic sequences". These can be played with one key and are ideal for creating a complete song. Using both layers and multiple parameter tracks simultaneously in the sequencer creates very dynamic and atmospheric soundscapes. No additional samples needed. No samples were used in this set! Of course it can be used with only one IRIDIUM and QUANTUM as well."

Soma Pulsar 23 Stereo Delay Exploration (No Talking)


video upload by Matt Lowery

"So, I had no idea before today, but apparently the Pulsar 23 gives you two discrete delay lines if certain conditions are met. I wanted to explore some sounds, so I thought I'd invite you along. You brought ice cream, right?"

Roland U-110/20/220 | A dream for the gigging musician in the late 80s


video upload by Espen Kraft

"Roland released the U-series in the late 80s and instantly they became keyboards that a lot of gigging and amateur musicians really embraced.

My demo song here uses sounds from all three romplers. I use both internal effects from the romplers as well as external reverb. Some sounds, like the piano, have been compressed really hard in the mix to get that "house" sound to it.
The drums, again, only from the stock factory sounds, has been treated with a lot of compression and external effects to cut through.
All the parts you see me play in the opening are recorded as I was recording the sounds themselves, into the DAW for mixing."
