"Really excited to introduce you Solid Felt, the new addition to the Herbs and Stones family.
Solid Felt is a stereo multimode analog filter in desktop format.
From subtle timbral variations to an all-encompassing sonic treatment, Solid Felt can be used in multiple ways to embellish or vandalize your sound bouquet.
"Compusynth is a modular synthesizer that takes inspiration from the west coast paradigm and the mighty Altair8800, one of the first personal microcomputers available to the hobbyists in the mid 70s.
With its peculiar 128 bit sequencer, oscillators, filters, efxs and processors, Compusynth is a powerful sonic laboratory thanks to its generous resources and flexible routing with 1596 patch points!
"Here we have the live and improvised performance from Scanner at Modular Meets Leeds 2022. With a Zoia FX pedal and only 6U of Eurorack modular Scanner takes us on a journey through electronic sounds, through ambience and texture rhythms emerge through a diverse set of tones. If you've seen Scanner improvise with a modular system before you'll know he traverse several ideas and makes bold decisions in how the sounds change over time.
If you enjoy this I strongly suggest you join the Scanner Fan Club on Bandcamp, it's a direct way to support an artist while also getting a massive back catalogue of work along with exclusives too. // https://bit.ly/scannerCLUB"
"Comparing how two VSTs inspired by the legendary Minimoog: Arturia Mini V3 and NI Monark. The goal of this video is to compare the sound of these two synths in their own right as opposed to seeing how faithful they are to the Moog they are trying to emulate.
#arturia #nativeinstruments #synths
First I compared the oscillators of the Mini V3 vs the Monark VST, then the filters, before programming the same patches on both synth plugins to see how they sounded.

"The name of this stream was 'we can't be serious'. For synth people, this apparently translated directly to pull out your dusty old guitar. Well, that's what we did anyway. But you can't just play guitar, you have to basically turn it back into a synth by adding Jam Pedals Fuzz Phrase LTD, Whacko +, and an EBow. It's not like we didn't use synths either. We still employed the Buchla Modular, Nord Modular G1, and RD-9 Drum Machine. All of this was combined with Jax's ethereal vocal spread utilizing dual Boss RE-20s and a Pigtronix Infinity Looper. We managed to find a blissful orbit."
Sonicware LIVEN 8bit warps is a great synth with its own sound and great sequencer, but with controls that take some getting used to.
'Dynamic' - This sound bank contains 40 patches "MEM" and 40 patterns "PTN" and we hope it will add some good patches to your library.
Rhythmic, digital synthesizer, effects, synth bass.
The demo tune was recorded in real time and does not contain external effects or any processing, at the end of the demo LIVEN 8bit warps is combined with liven Bass & Beats.
Anyone spot the DX5 in the video above? I'm not seeing the telltale wood side panels unless the lighting is just off. That is a Yamaha on the stand to the right of the Sequential Circuits Prophet 2000. Amazing band live. I used to see them at Magic Mountain back in the day. Them and Sparks seemed to perform there multiple times every year.
"Lucky to have found this one after the first upload mysteriously disappeared. Contrary to popular belief, this show is from 1985 and not 1987. At the start of Weird Science, Danny says "here's a song we did for a movie this year". Weird Science was released in 1985. There is some evidence that other songs such as "Gratitude" were performed here but any video footage of it has been lost, so it isn't here.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Dead Man's Party
6:13 - Who Do You Want To Be
9:31 - Just Another Day
14:35 - Grey Matter
20:00 - Stay
23:26 - Weird Science
28:10 - Goodbye, Goodbye"
"An amazing synth with a cool history! This DX5 was apart of Oingo Boingo's touring rig during the 'Dead Man's Party' era. As seen being played by Michael Bacich in various live performances most notably 'Live at the Ritz'. The gentleman I bought this from purchased it around 1989 from a used shop in L.A.. He played it for a couple of years, then threw it under his bed for about 20 years. I purchased it in 2016 and have lovingly cared for it since. There are some various scratches and dings throughout the keyboard and a couple of dips in the wood, but overall is in great shape for the age and touring history. Road case is heavy and will cost a bit to ship.
Recent upgrades and maintenance work includes:
-Removing each key and soaking in soapy water -Replaced upper and lower key felts -Replaced all electrolytic capacitors in PSU -Replaced 2 tantalum caps in CPU board -Replaced CPU battery -Realigned after touch sensor -Adjusted after touch trim pots -Installed new OS EPROM, removed/added jumpers for one IC operation (originally used 2 ICs) -De-soldered both ribbon connectors from original display, and soldered to new OLED display -Installed new display"
