Vangelis Blade Runner blues - cover (live)



From: mik300z (via Youtube)
I never would have tried to cover this, but when I made the cs80 like lead on the juno 6 it was too tempting :) here is a link to a German magazine interview , the settings for the Juno 6 patch are on the last page http://www.amazona.de/index.php?page=26&file=2&article_id=3038
also a link to to a warm up while I was getting the right atmosphere to the cover version

Andromeda A6´s Step Sequencer


Nothing too fancy, It´s just me having fun with the Alesis Andromeda A6's 16 X 16! internal Step Sequencer and its filters. For the noises almost at the end of the video, I used a Dark Energy, Moog FreqBox and a Moog Analog Delay Mf-104Z

Korg Monotron Gone Polyphonic + (Free Logic 9 File)

The Sawlytron is a result of many limits. The desire to harness the sound of analogue while being unable to afford the likes of a Virus, Prophet, Moog etc. The Monotron represents the heritage of the Korg MS-10 and MS-20 with the same analogue filter as its predecessors. This is amazing in itself given the affordability of the Monotron.

If you want a polyphonic analogue synth with an analog filter, the Monotron takes you halfway there. Equipped with a sampler you can take the Monotron the rest of the way to polyphonic bliss.

Novation Ultranova - analog modeling synth

UltraNova is the new generation of Novation’s iconic ‘Nova’ range of synthesizers. It packs the massive ‘Nova’ sound into a compact body with a built-in vocoder.

A new ‘Touch’ performance system places deep control of the synth right at your fingertips – so incredible new ways to play, create and perform are just a touch away.

SynthDream Symphony For Analog Wishes


Made by World Of Synthesizers

The Moog Sonic Six [video]

The Moog Sonic Six is an an outgrowth of Moog's expansion in the early seventies, when it took over a smaller company called Musonics, which made a synth called the Sonic V.

Moog took the Sonic V design, updated it with more Moog-like features (S-trig, three-stage Minimoog-like envelopes, etc) and released it as the attache-case-mounted Sonic VI.

SuONOIO - prototype synth


Citizen Mori stopped by Scott's place and took a few photos/audio samples of the SuONOIO protoype. here is what he came up with!

TipTop Z8000 sequencer

TipTop Boss from Chris Carter on Vimeo.

This is basically just a TipTop Z8000 sequencer controlling a Z-DSP module, a Z2040 VCF & a Z5000 VCDSP module. The audio source is a Boss DR-220E Dr.Rhythm, which is also triggering the Z8000 sequencer from its programmable Trig output. Other modules used were a MFB Dual LFO- to change the direction of the sequencer and a Doepfer Dual VCA modulated by two Doepfer VCOs to add a little ring-mod'ish timbre.

A longer 'audio only' clip is also on Soundcloud:

Gakken SX-150 synth and the BugBrand Weevil synths

Experimental Tribute from Chris Carter on Vimeo.

This is a brief tribute I made to the experimental work of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop who recently staged a performance in London, that I couldn't attend. All the sounds and loops originate from the BC8 synth, the Gakken SX-150 synth and the BugBrand Weevil synths. All the effects and processing is done with the Boss pedals. Oh yeah... and I did the whole thing 'upside down'.

A very special Moog

HUMAN NATURE - HOELLENMASCHINE (2009) from Ars Electronica on Vimeo.

The first wiring diagrams for the Max Brand synthesizer by Bob Moog are dated 1957. Over more than 10 years, Moog, then a young engineer, built this unique apparatus on the basis of Max Brand’s ideas. The sole traces left by the composer are in the interface design: two keyboards, 2 band-manuals and four foot pedals! The core components are the two frequency dividers, each with 20 sub-frequencies and a adjustable matrix of 3 blocks, each with 4 x 20 sub-harmonic modules including the first voltage-controlled modules Moog ever built (VCA, VCF, VCO).

MoPho Keyboard Synthesizer DSI [video review]

The Mopho Keyboard is a compact and affordable—but powerful—monophonic analog synthesizer. The voice architecture is similar to a single voice of the Prophet '08, but with a couple of twists to distinguish it from its award-winning sibling. We have added two sub-octave generators—one per oscillator—for additional girth and crushing basses. It also has an audio input that lets you process external audio and mix Mopho's own audio output back in pre-filter for feedback effects that can range from subtle distortion to extreme skronk. It features the same semi-weighted keyboard action as the Prophet.

Roland RE-201 Space Echo

The Roland RE-201 Space Echo is truly a Vintage (1973) piece of music technology with lots of appeal even today. It is a Tape-Echo machine for creating true analog echo effects. The RE-201 is a simple system in which a small loop of tape records an incoming signal and immediately plays the recorded sound back over a couple playback heads before being erased over by new incoming audio. A real analog system with warm, gritty and almost noiseless operation, the Space Echo can provide warm, unpredictable and highly tweakable echo effects [original source: vintagesynth.com]
