Sonicware LIVEN 8 bit warps // ***4K*** // Factory Presets // DRUM LOOPS // No Talking


video upload by LESINDES

"Since my SONICWARE LIVEN 8BIT WARPS was broken (LED N16 of the sequencer was not lit) I had to return it fast to the shop. I could not dive deep into the unit. So I am giving only a short impression of the capabilities of the synth playing some FACTORY PRESET PATTERNS."

Yamaha TX802 | The pinnacle of what the DX line became in the 80s.


video upload by Espen Kraft

"The module version of the DX7II, the Yamaha TX802 even improves on the keyboard version by having 8 separate tone generators. Making this a totally flexible multi-timbral DX7II.

Considering price, features, power, durability and availability... this is by far the 80s DX/FM- synth I recommend above all others. Especially if you only want ONE.
And no, the later models like EX5, FS1R, Montage, ModX etc, it's not the same although nice in their own rights."

TONY's TESTBENCH - Episode 1. Waldorf Microwave XT-K


video upload by Tony Drake

"Episode one of a series of reviews of synthesizers that I come across.

The first synthesizer to get the once-over is a Waldorf XT-K wavetable synthesizer which was loaned to me by Andy D'Alton, an old friend of mine who had just serviced it and replaced the power supply. He was keen for me to put it through its paces, and i was happy to oblige.

The XT-K is gritty, intuitive, and edgy. From simple classic 'analogue' sounding pads, to grungy, to bright, and lots in-between.

A great creative tool, and easy to 'tweak' to create your own original sounds.

This video is not intended to go in-depth into the workings of the synth, but more to give the viewer an overview and a first impression by creating a short musical piece using a random selection of sounds, exclusively found on the XT-K. Detailed specs can always be found online.

Thanks to Andy from FINE TUNED SOLUTIONS. (Plumstead, Cape Town, South Africa)

Basimilus Iteritas is an additive/FM synthesizer inspired by analog percussion synthesis, and of course, the Basimilus Iteritas Alter. Synthesizing unique percussion is a breeze: thumping kicks, snappy snares, hats, snaps, and claps are all just a few tweaks away with Basimilus Iteritas. But it does so much more! The straightforward controls make creating almost any type of sound simple, including leads, ambient chirps, basses, and more."

Cursus Vereor is a synthesizer that produces unique timbres from spectral controls. Based on the module Cursus Iteritas, it features three synthesis modes based on different conceptualizations of frequency (sine waves, wavelets, and square waves). It has a musical tone structure and can produce an extremely wide variety of harmonic sounds, and with a powerful modulation system, you’re in for a world of new sounds.

FREE PO-33 KIT: TB-303 Acid sample kit | for Teenage Engineering PO-33 & PO-133


video upload by CNTR RNDM

"Hey, my name is Christian and I have a confession to make...I love ACID music! Over the past few years, I was involved in quite a few acid projects, such as 303 Addict, Stoney Broke Weirdos, Acid Traxx...blah, blah, who cares, right? Anyway, boomer-mode on: when I started out making acid techno, it was all about tracksuits, warehouse raves, you know all that good stuff. However, for me, acid-clubbing was never about taking pills or drinking till you pass out or whatever...I always wanted to know what gear the live acts were using, how they were performing and stuff. I always hated polished disco stuff...I was all about this raw, unpolished, acidy kind of stuff. And you know what? I still remember the first real acid gig I went to, the night I fell in love with acid music, so to say...I don't know which year it was or anything but - nevertheless - I have a super vivid memory of that particular night. So I and a couple of my mates went to this super tiny club in Duisburg called Chism (RIP Chism♥️)...we had heard good things about it but we had never been there...anyway, when we arrived, there was an old man giving out glowsticks and I was like "ok, that's weird but hey, who doesn't love glowsticks, right?"...anyway, we went in and the club was jam-packed, sweat was dripping from the ceiling, the crowd was super rowdy and aggressive (but in a positive way) and Robert Babicz aka Rob Acid was tearing the flipping walls down...it was bloody amazing...so, there was no stage or anything...he had all this gear like in the middle of the dancefloor on a folding table and there was nothing but chaos and mayhem around him...I don't know how he felt that very moment but he looked super cool and calm and played this awesome live set! Thanks for this memory Herr Babicz, Na Zdrowie! Kocham cię, mój przyjaciel!

Ok, I'm going off on a tangent here...sorry about that. You're probably here for the PO-33 kit so let me tell you a bit about it. For this PO-33 kit, I recorded both 303 loops and one-shots using Roland's TB-3 and D16's AMAZING Phoscyon plugin. The one-shots all come from the TB-3 and have been stored in the drum banks. The first two drum banks are arranged as follows:
Pads 1-4, C, all one-shots varying in intensity
Pads 5-8, D, all one-shots varying in intensity
Pads 9-12, G, all one-shots varying in intensity
Pads 12-16, A, all one-shots varying in intensity

The one-shots in the last drum bank have been arranged randomly.

video upload by CNTR RNDM

"This tiny synthesizer jam features a generative patch on the Korg Volca Modular which is being run through the Korg NTS-1 - the NTS-1 works as an FX unit for the Korg Volca Modular. FX-wise, I'm using the absolutely amazing Cathedral reverb in this tiny synthesizer jam. If you own a Korg NTS-1 and you haven't downloaded it yet, do yourself a favour and head over to https://hammondeggsmusic.ca/ and get this reverb...NOW!!! It's free (which is incredible) and super awesome!!! I need to add more exclamation marks to make my point clear...so here they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, enjoy this tiny synthesizer jam! Cheers!!!"

Exploring Arturia's V Collection 8: CZ V


video upload by DATABROTH

"check out my wavetables and presets at https://gumroad.com/databroth
join my Patreon https://www.patreon.com/databroth

Arturia have hooked me up with their V Collection library, I'll likely be going through the whole thing over the next month (with the exception of things like piano and organs). Today I'll be exploring the CZ V, based on the classic casio CZ series, I actually owned a CZ101 years ago, always thought it was an interesting piece of hardware, cheap, but unique, it'll be fun revisiting that synth in an arguably easier interface and with more features"
