Prophet 5 with Universal Audio Golden Reverberator - UAFX Reverb Pedal


video upload by SoundsAndGear

"I like to have dedicated fx for my synths, I bought the UA Golden Reverb sometime last fall and it has remained a part of my chain. I was messing around with the Prophet 5 and this pedal and decided to record some of the sound. I dig it! Probably will end up with the other two pedals soon."

"A HOLY GRAIL OF PEDALS.

HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT DEVICE:)

DESIGNED BY TOM OBERHEIM. MAESTRO WAS ONE OF THE FIRST PEDAL MAKERS, IN THE 70'S.

THESE ARE RARER THAN RARE, AS YOU KNOW.

IT'S TWO DEVICES IN ONE: WHEN "FILTER" IS SELECTED, THE INSTRUMENT (GUITAR, ETC) THAT'S PLUGGED IN, AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATES AN ENVELOPE FOLLOWER, THAT CONTOURS THE MODIFIED LOW PASS FILTER'S RESPONSE CURVE ACCORDING TO THE DYNAMICS OF THE INPUT.

A VERY CONTROLLABLE (FILTER CONTROL) DYNAMIC EFFECT, A LITTLE MORE SUBTLE THAN "AUTO WAH".

THE REAL FUN COMES WITH THE "SAMPLE/HOLD" POSITION. HERE, THE FILTER'S RESPONSE IS CONTROLLED RANDOMLY, BUT WITH AN OVERLYING RHYTHMIC ELEMENT DETERMINED BY THE CONTROLLABLE LFO (S/H SPEED). IT'S NOT UNLIKE THE SOUND PEOPLE THOUGHT COMPUTERS MADE IN THE 60'S-70'S:)

BECAUSE SUCCESS WAS UNKNOWN, SOME ELECTRONIC PARTS WERE SELECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT WERE OF THEN-LESSER-QUALITY. THESE IMPART A VERY DESIRABLE AMOUNT OF SLIGHT GRIT TO THE SOUND.

SINCE THE AVAILABILITY OF SUCH PARTS HAVE LONG SINCE VANISHED, THE ORIGINAL CIRCUIT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET THIS PARTICULARLY FAVORED SOUND.

EXCLUSIVE TO THIS PARTICULAR DEVICE: THERE ARE "TRIMS" INSIDE, THAT HAVE BEEN OPTIMIZED.

ALSO EVERYTHING HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED AND LUBRICATED."

Complex oscillator comparison - Sputnik vs. Verbos


video upload by John Schussler

"These two complex oscillators are almost identical in functionality
because they're both modeled after the Buchla 259 complex oscillator. (I'm assuming. Their marketing info doesn't call out the 259 explicitly.)

As a result I figured it'd be an interesting head-to-head comparison to see how their sounds differed, given the very similar architectures.

I'm not going to try every combination of controls, just going to get a general idea of how each sounds with the same basic settings. Not a lot of talking, either, since the modules are fairly straightforward.

Sequence: Stochastic IG. Envelope: Zadar

00:00 Intro
00:20 Sputnik drone
03:05 Sputnik sequence
08:54 Verbos drone
10:57 Verbos sequence"

Quasar System - Beach Soundscape


video upload by Prism Circuits

"The Quasar System is an esoteric system that offers pure exploration patching styles being that no sequencer is present in the system. It forces you to think outside of the box and use modules in different ways to create melodies and “sequence like” variable cv sources.

The Quasar System is planned to be released April 9th for sale on the Prism Circuits website.

Oregon Coast Dreams - Synth Bliss


video upload by Mamotreco

"Sometimes a place leaves a musical feeling within. The Oregon Coast is such a place. For this reason, I wrote this synth track to capture it. Enjoy the ensuing Badalamenti Wave. #synth #soundtrack #oregoncoast

Used Ableton Live, Samples From Mars and Arturia to make the music you hear. A looping pattern of overlapping melodies reminiscent of Twin Peaks, run their course until some shy string machine pads come into play.

Current channel music compilation: https://mamotreco.bandcamp.com

Welcome to Mamotreco! This channel covers a lot topics: synthesizers, electronic instruments, making and listening to music and photography. The aim is to post weekly, though that isn't always possible. Thanks for watching."

Meng Qi Wingie 2 getting very excited by Novation Circuit Rhythm and some help from Just Friends


video upload by -CALC-

"A little demo track with the fantastic new Wingie 2 from Meng Qi Music.
Two resonators that are getting excited by audio inputs.
In many ways its a very simple box but it has some magical and musical secrets hidden within.
This track is really just Wingie 2 being excited by a beat from Circuit Rhythm. Wingie is also being handed a MIDI sequencer from Circuit Rhythm to form the Chord progression.
Wingie is set to the String algo and I genuinely love the way a heavy input overdrives and 'blows out' the sound."
