My First Micron Video


YouTube via 86scirocco8v
"A little sample of some of my favourite Alesis Micron patches.

I went to my faves folder and went through all the patches while jamming to each one, afterwards I cut down the 25 minutes worth of footage to the 6 mins you see here, editing out all the horrible playing in between :)

Most of the patches are either stock or downloaded with a few of them being my own creations.

More videos coming soon. Thanks for watching!"

My first Roland Juno 106 (HS-60) Demo


YouTube via 86scirocco8v
"My first Juno 106 video.

In the pictures you see my Roland HS-60 which is a Juno 106 with built in speakers, the sound engine is exactly the same.

I created a midi file and then let it play while I tweaked the synth live.

Sorry for the lack of video, I thought I pushed record but then at the end of it all I noticed that I forgot. Luckily the audio did get recorded. I will make sure to press it for the next video :)"

Roland SH 32 - Experimenting with (PW) Pulse Width waveforms

"Just having some fun playing with pulse wave oscillators on a Roland SH 32.

This could be extremely boring/annoying for those not into synthesis :)

I enjoyed making this video and hope to make some more soon. If you have any requests or suggestions for future videos let me know!"

Using Tattoo's MIDI Output to drive a Drum Rack in Ableton Live


YouTube via AudioDamage001
"This brief tutorial shows how to set up a drum rack to receive MIDI from Tattoo, so that you can use Tattoo's sophisticated grid sequencer and randomization on other sounds. You can also use this method to double or replace individual sounds from Tattoo, while still using the internal sounds. Note that this is only applicable to the VST version, as the AU version doesn't have MIDI out."

Ian Fritz 5Pulser Waveshaper Demo


YouTube via bchris1776
"This is a very simple demo of the Ian Fritz 5Pulser 'voltage controlled waveshaper. It's based on the LM3914 display driver chip. This is a really unique waveshaping circuit - and despite my lack of imagination in this demo - I'm looking forward to using it to great effect in my modular patches.

Info on this circuit can be found at http://www.electro-music.com/forum/vi...
and the PC board is available through bridechamber.com

In this demo, audio in is a steady sawtooth waveform. CV1 is the random output of a sequencer, CV2 is an LFO sine wave."

Manual Drone

"Stripped down version of the last patch completely under manual control. Joystick 1 controls the VCO pitch on one axis and the modulation VCO pitch on the other. Joystick 2 controls the timbre of the 5 pulse waveshaper and scans through several fixed filter bank outputs."

"sequencing waveforms from a Livewire AFG using a Plan B Heisenberg Generator for the random waveform selections from the Doepfer A-152 8-way Multiplexer. the timing is clocked from a single Plan B ELF LFO multed to the clock divider and sequential switch selecting 3 different sub divisions that get sent to the heisenberg. it is being processed a a touch of reverb from Ableton Live. sorry for the camera audio."

Modified Moog MG-1 Realistic Concertmate


YouTube via Zolophile
"LZX Industries performed some simple modifications on this MG1 to make it more useful. The RCA jacks on the back have been replaced with high-quality 1/4" jacks. The audio input is routed through the filter now and there is a filter CV input. This MG-1 can be used as a standalone filter or interfaced with a modular synthesizer and other gear, like Moogerfooger pedals. A V-trig input has been added, making it easier to sequence the synth or play it from other synths that use the v/oct and v-trig standard. The BEST mod on this MG-1 is an additional switch that disengages the LFO on Oscillator One. This allows you to take better advantage of the sync and "bell tone" features by modulating one oscillator and not the other--a sound you cannot get from a regular MG-1!"

via Califaudio where you'll find a few more vids.
"Jorge Crowe's 2x [Potencia de Dos] is a DJ/VJ electronic instrument made of a simple circuit, a scanner, six speakers, a subwoofer, an overhead projector and an LCD panel from an old laptop.

Placing your hands on the scanner's touch panel triggers seven different frequencies, and each of them is double the bits/beats of the previous (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, etc.). The pulses excite an LCD screen to create geometric visual compositions."

MIDI retrofit for CR-78 Part 6


YouTube via MusicMiK. follow-up to this post.
"This part shows the tight timing i built into the MIDItriggs for the CR-78, while this machine is not the easiest to handle for perfect MIDI sync. There still is one clock offset when recording the internal sequencer data of the CR-78 via MIDI, but this feature might not so interesting anyway.

The write switch is also shown in this video, which has a perfect timing, as long as you don't start in measure 1 of your MIDI sequencer software, this makes trouble due to the startup time of the CR-78. The patterns are 2 measures long, so just use 2 empty measures, then the notes for the write switch.

I found the problem of the strange doubling sound - it was due to "any note" triggering the write switch, so the selected instrument got triggered twice. This is fixed now, it now uses "any unassigned note" for the write switch. This simplifies recording:

BD in measure 3-5, HH in measure 7-9, SD in measure 11-13, Accent in measure 15-17, all as recorded, transposed 12 semitones down (to hit unassigned notes), record off (to not send back triggers received from the CR-78), start, instrument selector to BD, wait until measure 6, instrument selector to HH, wait until 10, select SD, wait until 14, select Accent, wait until 18, stop, done, whole rhythm in the programmable area.
Maybe i create another video about this.

All features seem to work fine now, i will now update the documentation and publish MIDItriggs version 1.0 on http://www.mik-music.org/MIDItriggs today or tomorrow. Ready-to-go for your CR-78 :)

Please keep in mind that i don't have the time to build kits for you or implement more features you might like to see. This project is open source, so you can fit it to your needs on your own. I likely ignore questions about it that are answered in the documentation or source code."

"During the final testing of the MIDItriggs retrofit for the CR-78, i played around with sync in both directions and thought, it is funny enough to create a video. I hope, you like it.

circuit bent modular synthesizer


YouTube via spunkytoofers. follow-up to this post
"signal path: circuit bent alesis quadrasynth into moog mf-102 followed by spunkytoofers rabbit hole delay the demo starts with a dry track from the bent quadrasynth and mixes fx in manually. the sine lfo on the ring modulator is gradually mixed in depth through the demo.

spunkytoofers wavescaper: circuit bent alesis modular synthesizer is controlling overall sample rate of the synth, the mf 102, and the rabbit hole delay pedal. control modulation information is coming from the midi out of the dsi evolver merged with the thru out ffrom the alesis and ewi4000s.. dsi is sending evolving sequences to mf 102 and the rabbit hole delay while global tempo is maintained on tap tempo. the ewi is controlling the synth itself as well as sample rate on breath, while keyed pitch is tracked to the rabbit hole for more variance in delay modulation.
