Kawai K1 | A Digital Lo-Fi Beauty!

video upload by Espen Kraft

"Kawai K1 from 1988. A wonderful lo-fi digital synthesizer with lots of waveforms you can mix and match within 4 independent oscillators. By many referred to as a poor man's PPG or Prophet VS.

The main feature most seemed to be missing from the K1, was a traditional filter. There is no filter onboard. Kawai did remedy this with the K4 that came out a little later.

All of the music I've made in this video is coming directly out of the Kawai K1m you see in the video. Multitracked. All the songs and sound examples have been mixed and mastered. That means my complete mixing workflow, including plugin and outboard effects and analog summing. See my other mixing videos for details about the gear I use.

The patches are a mix of presets, customized presets and my own patches."

Track&Teach: Octatrack 1Part Resampling & Remixing Electribe MX (Superbooth21 Liveset)

video upload by MrDataline

"Track&Teach download at: https://dataline.bandcamp.com/album/t...
Includes the Octatrack project file used in this liveset & tutorial video covering how the Octatrack is configured to achieve seamless live sampling and remixing with the ElectribeMX using only 1 Part & 1 Pattern workflow.

The tutorial video goes over audio routing, how the tracks are set for THRU machines & record buffers and mixing back the inputs after sampling for smooth transitions.

This 11 minute Track&Teach video focuses on Octatrack sampling 2 different sources in realtime, remixing them while adding other layers from the inputs again - only using 1 part & 1 pattern workflow.

Special thanks to the Adam Audio crew for the video!

Enjoy!"

Subharmonicon / Grandmother / Hydrasynth / System 8 / Nord A1 / Prophet 08 "Midnight Rapsody"

video upload by Denis Polic

"It´s like last few tracks i have done lately, it starts and ends with amazing Moog Subharmonicon, it was really the missing part in my puzzle to step higher in inspirational process. Some people say Subharmonicon is limited, and i totally disagree with them, its a endless source of harmonics, wich i has not even expected to be possible, and enjoy every single minute i spend with it, thanks a lot Moog!!!!

Hope it would be a nice listen for you, ´cos it was a great fun to make it, cheers and peace on Earth!!!"

Voltage Modular VM900 Quick Demo by boxoftextures

video upload by boxoftextures

"Saw a tweet from Cherry Audio about the newly released set of VM900 modules about two hours ago, instantly purchased them, and then made this video as a quick demo. Nothing fancy, single oscillator, no LFOs, minimal envelope count, but it still sounds fantastic. For me it was a no-brainer instabuy. Will certainly make some more in-depth videos of the VM900s, just wanted to get this out there."

Standard Black and Orange Behringer 2600 w/ Blue Marvin Logo?

This one was sent in via Audio Illustrator from New Man Studios.

He purchased it new. The Blue Marvin logo is on the back. Curious how that happens. Parts mix up or did they run out of the standard and just grabbed a Blue Marvin?

New Evaton Technologies AModulator - Time Lapse Build

video upload by fiN Studios

You can find build pics and a full write-up at https://finstudios.com/evaton-technologies-amodulator-diy-build/.

And the AModulator kit on Evaton's website here: https://www.evatontechnologies.com/amodulator.

Video description:

"The Evaton Technologies AModulator SDIY kit is a companion module to the RF Nomad voltage-controlled shortwave receiver. Available ONLY in DIY form, the AModulator is a crude RF amplitude modulator that produces a micro power radio-frequency signal which the RF Nomad can decode.

Simply put, the AModulator allows you to encode any audio signal into an amplitude modulated RF signal, which the RF Nomad can then decode back to audio, with all the delicious artifacts of vintage shortwave sound. Because the RF Nomad is a single sideband decoder, the decoded audio can also be frequency-shifted, simply by tuning slightly off-frequency.

Check out our latest time lapse build video and if you would like to learn more about the Evaton AModulator module, head on over to https://finstudios.com for more details.

"The AModulator ships as two printed circuit boards: One is the electronics, and the other serves as both the faceplate and touchplate emitter. You can "play" the AModulator by pressing on the touch area to affect the signal."

Hydrasynth: Is complexity BAD for your music?

video upload by Alex Ball

"I finally managed to get my hands on an ASM Hydrasynth for a video and after looking at all the features and functions I decided to explore whether any of the complexity was beneficial to music making when after all, some of the most enduring and popular synthesizers of all time have been very simple.
