Intro/Violet | Moyka Synth Cover (Instrumental)

video upload by Jezza M

"I swapped a few of my synths around this time, and focused more on the monosynths for this cover of 'Intro' and 'Violet' by Moyka! I extended 'Intro' slightly too here as well

New addition to the family is my Korg MS-20 mini, so I am finally at a place where I feel as if I am able to not use any VSTs - everything you hear is being done by the synths you see. As always, a one-take recording (with a few mistakes - I am doing it live!) but it took a good few tries to get this one right.

Enjoy!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nerd alert!

Top left is my Korg MS-20 mini. Not really being used to its full potential here, just for the vocal line, but it can do some really freaky things as it is semi-modular. Watch this space, I hope to do something to show it off better soon

Just in front is my Roland JU-06A. Not analog, but that doesn't really matter, as you can hear how good it sounds on the arpeggiators throughout Violet

Bottom left is my Moog Subsequent 37. I needn't say any more. Absolute beast, does the bass and then provides an additional bass arp

To the right is a Roland TR-8S. Very powerful little drum machine, although does lack a song mode, hence the frantic changing of patterns

Occasional visitor to the video is my Sequential Prophet Rev2. My only keyboard polysynth, hence I use it mostly for pads!"

Waldorf Blofeld - Trance Supersaw 90s-2000s

video upload by NatLife Sounds

"Product Link: https://natlifesounds.com/product/tra...

Trance Supersaw 90s-2000s for Waldorf Blofeld - is the most powerfull Trance collection of Supersaw sounds which you can get.

It took several months to get the best Supersaw's presets ever and crafted into famous Dance and Trance hits of the 90s and 2000s.

Multi-Patches were synthesized with special care, so that you would get instant results from them. These presets consist of single patches but have their own peculiarity, which could not be realized with only one layer. The demo song perfectly shows the combination of Single patches and Multi in one.

You also will receive amazing ARP sounds with a soul of 90s, Blade Runner style Pads with a Trance combination, pumping Basses, beautifull Synth & Keys.

"I can feel it coming in the air tonight. If you always loved the drum machine intro, this is how you get that iconic sound. Also, think Blondies Heart of Glass.

This beautiful CR-78 has just been fully checked and serviced by a former Roland technician who established Roland's first service department in Ontario, Canada. It’s now ready to go to a new home.

All push buttons, potentiometers, and sliders were cleaned and lubricated. All move without introducing any noise or static into the signal chain. Input and output jacks were all cleaned and checked. All voices work and sound as they should - analog sexy. The programming section is fully operational and ready for you to program your own rhythms.

As for the condition, the pictures tell the story. The front panel is pristine – no scratches, marks or oxidization. The wood case is also in amazing condition and has the original rubber feet. (The 2 metal identification plates still have the protective plastic film on them!)

This CR-78 is a 220-volt unit. I use a step-up transformer for use on 110 volts (see pics). The step-up transformer will be included."

PERfourMER MKII - rubber band session #2

video upload by vermonagear

"Another attempt to synchronize the cutoff frequencies of our PERfourMER MKII with rubber bands. We mounted the chrome knobs from our Action Filter to the cutoff potentiometers of the PERfourMER MKII. They are a bit larger in diameter and have a good grip. But the rubber bands are still not perfect.

We sequenced the PERfourMER MKII from Ableton Live and also used the standard delay plugin as an effect. What do you think of this performance? Let us know in the comments below."
