A LM-1 LinnDrum (PRINCE KNOCK) inside a Sequential Circuits DrumTraks

video upload by Program 17

"After 25 years I figured out how to get a DrumTraks to sound like a LM-1 Drum Computer. I program binary files. And I realized you have to take the LM-1 Snare/Rim Eprom and put it inside the Clap Slot.
a lot of people been asking me to do this to there machines. you can email me at going.up.up.up.up@gmail.com for further info.

thx for all your support

Low-Gain Electronics S/T&H + VC Portamento : Bit Crushing Arcade SFX experiments!

video upload by LowGainElectronics

"Using the S/T&H module as a bit crusher to modulate a VCO’s frequency. Resulting in atari arcade machine sounds.

Dual Negative Slopes both in cycle mode. One providing a variable voltage source of which to be sampled. The second is simply clocking the S/T&H. Output of the S/T&H is being fed to the VCO Freq Modulation input. Audio is just direct from VCO’s output.

Module will be available soon:

Patch of the Week: Whistle Lead (Tomita/Tangerine Dream) Using self-oscillating Filter/VCF as a VCO

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"This sound is inspired by lead sounds of the 70's/80's from Isao Tomita and Tangerine Dream (Remote Viewing), but will also be reminiscent of Kate Bush's 'All we ever wanted', and even Jeff Wayne's 'War of The Worlds' musical. It uses a filter/VCF in self-oscillation as a VCO, controlling it melodically, with envelopes and noise to help recreate the sounds. No VCO/oscillator is needed in the patch, and white or pink noise is optional, but necessary to get a Tomita-like whistle sound. Tomita originally used a Moog modular system for these sounds, so given that the AJH Synth MiniMod system and it's Transistor Ladder Filter are directly based on the early R.A.Moog version of the Minimoog, it's possible to get very close to such sounds. However, I've not tried to emulate it exactly, but you can see that the basis for this patch is very easily customisable, so it's a very useful synth patch to understand for a variety of musical applications. Patch sheet PDF can be downloaded here: https://kvisit.com/8AE/rv4G

Check out the AJH Synth playlists for module 'User Guides', and 'Patch of The Week' videos, which will be either performances or 'how to' guides, detailing functions/methods, and a range of sounds, some familiar, some less so, containing a patch sheet at the end, with notes below, to show you how to construct it for yourself.

Patch Notes:
Green dots show approximate pot and switch positions. Pots and switches that do not have green dots are not used in this patch, and should be left at their zero or off positions.
This is based on the version in the video with noise mixed in as audio, and glide applied to the keyboard CV. For variations without noise or glide, and usage with a mod controller, see the appropriate part of the video (check Index). Only a couple of connections need to be changed for these purposes.
V-Scale: Used here as a simple multiple, but since it's handling Gate signals any passive multiple could be used.
DH-ADSR: Another Contour Generators could be used instead, but the advantage with the DH-ADSR is independent control of both Decay and Release, meaning greater control. It serves as a great companion to the Contour Generators for this reason.
Dual LFO: The Tap Tempo VC-LFO module could also be used here in the same way, as it also has a built-in VCA (level control).
Ladder Filter: The Gemini 2412 would also work well here, it's tracking in self-oscillation is actually better overall. It would just need to have high resonance/self-oscillation enabled by the rear jumpers (see online manual or video user guide). The Ladder Filter struggles to track at lower frequencies, this is an authentic characteristic of the original Minimoog filter, but it's fine for the pitch/note ranges used in this video. The Sonic XV will also self-oscillate, but it's ability to track 1V/Oct is not as tight as the Gemini.
Modules used from left to right: Glide + Noise (Mk I or Mk II), V-Scale, DH-ADSR Envelope, Dual LFO + VCA, Contour Generators, Transistor Ladder Filter, Discrete Cascaded VCA."

Is the Arturia MiniFreak Good for Classic Style Synth Sounds?

"Donald Jordan explores the Arturia MiniFreak to see if it's a good synth for more classic style synth sounds.

All synth sounds and music in this video were created using the MiniFreak. The synth audio was recorded direct and zero post processing or external effects were used."

14-Voice Alesis A6 Andromeda

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Iconic Alesis Andromeda A6 Poly Synth in excellent optical condition. Technically everything is working except for two voices (7 and 8 - see pic 3), which fail the auto tune process and thus get switched off by the A6. Probably this can be resolved, however since in practice I never missed having 2 less voices in this beast, I have not looked further into this. So in effect this is an Andromeda with 14-voices of polyphony, and thus the lower price."
