A Friday night soundscape

video upload by junklight

"Not much time for making music at the moment but I've slowly been refining my setup while I have the odd minute. Ditched Roli and went the way I should have gone in the first place.... MPE really unlocks the Argon 8 IMO (you can just see the keyboard in this shot - I've discovered stands as a way of maximising the small space in my studio). Also loving the Red Panda Particles 2- no idea what it's doing most of the time - I should read the manual again but it makes great noises!"

Bad Gear - Roland System-1

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Roland Aira System-1. Many people consider digital synthesizers to be nothing but a plugin in a box. Did Roland make it official? Can the plugout emulations of classic analog synths keep up with the vintage originals?

Micromonsta 2 demonstration - Mojo presets

video upload by Soundsauca

"Mojo is a brand new sound bank for the awesome pint size synth that is Micromonsta 2. Whilst the rest of the synth world rejoices in micro gadgets from “Brand-X”, this little Monsta delivers a fully loaded response. It’s lean, mean and crucially possesses a cutting edge sound engine to back it up with. In fact, I love it!

The video shows off 50 sounds in the bank but there's an extra 50 included."

Does Roland deliver? Comparing the Jupiter 4 and the Promars plugin.

The modulation comparisons at 17 are interesting.

"Jupiter 4 vs Promars plugin

This text contains information about how the comparison was made. If you want to read a longer review, please download the pdf file at the bottom of this page.
But if you want an unbiased experience, stop reading and go see the video or jump to the desired part of the video using the video sections below.

In any case, please also consider subscribing to the channel if you like the video. This is a very time consuming activity, I make this just as a hobby and the only way to know that it’s worth the effort is the statistics of the channel. I have no message for the mankind, but I need to know if you like what I do, if that makes sense. :-)

Ok, this is a comparison between the Roland Jupiter 4 and the Roland Promars plugin. The Promars is a dual VCO monophonic synth. It is said to be technically very close to the Jupiter 4. So, if we use only one Promars VCO and don’t play chords on the Jupiter, the resulting sounds should be theoretically very similar. But close enough to allow for comparisons? Let’s have a listen!

No video or pics of the filter and envelope settings are included. There made no sense because the position of the parameters in the Jupiter 4 and Mercury 4 didn’t match.

Levels are matched using peak normalisation. The Promars is just a little quieter. That’s how the plug-in works.

No effects, EQ or processing were added to the direct sound. The Jupiter 4 onboard chorus is always off, and the second Promars VCO is of course switched off, too.
