Roland SH101-SH32 loop jam, analogue vs digital synthesisers in the forest. A hedgehop video remix

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"Dragged out the SH32 again, this time I looped it to make use of different sounds and it's drum samples. Got a bit stuck in a groove in the windy hollow and after a failed attempt at recording a live overdub, I decided to layer the drums and bass to beef up the sound a bit.
The video overdub is from the Draca Caves in Mallorca 17th July 2023.

Tales from the Hedge no.2 (as dusk falls mix) 2 synth ambient jam with Roland Sh-01 Gaia and SH-101

video upload by

"A little piece I recorded for the Hardware Jams weekend challenge - two box jam.
After all the gorgeous sunshine, it was raining on the day I had some time free for jamming in the woods. I waited and waited until it finally stopped and I managed to get a relatively dry session in as the sun set and dusk fell.
I missed getting footage of the small herd of 6 fallow deer that were my audience for my practice takes, they moved on as the mist came in across the field.

Ambient drone jam across the South Downs via modulated light beam with SH101 Crave MC101 birdsong

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"Original drone jam in Brandy Hole woods with SH101 and Crave. The Crave was triggered using the 101's internal sequencer and this was the recording with all the birdsong.

The audio from this session was then transmitted the following day, via light, from Butser Hill to the Trundle, 12 miles away. The audio modulates the intensity of a bright red LED and a lens is used to form a beam. The white flashing light on the Trundle is the locator for the LED transmitter, once the LED is pointing towards the white light, the scope is used to align the receiver's photo diode. The output from the photo diode is then converted to audio and played through the Cube. This was recorded live with additional sounds from the MC101.

Future plan is to build a couple of two-way transmitters/receivers, so that light-speed communication can be established between the hilltops. Greater distances are being tested too.

A Blue Forest - analogue/digital hedge-hopping amongst the bluebells, looping sequences from SH-101

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"Jamming in the woods with my new master clock - a Midronome. I can now easily sync my analogue synths with my sequencer, which in the woods means the battery-powered Roland Sh101. Here, I am writing random sequences and then looping them so they can be layered and reversed.

Hedge-hopping at dusk as the rain starts to fall | Roland MC101 through Boss RC500 stereo looper :)

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"I took my Crave up to my forest studio to play a track I'm currently working on but I forgot it's power supply. And it started to rain. Rather than pack up and return to civilisation, I decided to have a jam with just the MC101 and the looper to see what I could come up with, whilst deflecting raindrops with my telekinetic powers.

'Glowingly Foolish' is a joint composition with myself and the Ukranian music artist Dmitry Postovalov. Dmitry wrote and recorded the Kalimba samples and we are working on a collaborative e.p. together. His channel here is:

ambient one-synth drone jam with SH-32 in an early 12th century Norman church at dusk - creepy vibe!

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"After setting up in my forest studio to jam some ambient synth loops, it started to rain pretty hard so I had to pack up with haste. I decided to try a new spot that I had in mind - a 900 year old church in a field in a tiny village called Upwaltham, situated in the South Downs national park.

I had an old synth with me that I've only just realised I could run on battery power, however, I forgot both my lithium batteries having put them on charge earlier! So I had to run it off of 6AA batteries I had with me for the looper and with the synth drawing a whole 1A, it only lasted for about 20 mins before powering off.

The Monument 101-101 | forest-jamming analogue synth loops with Roland SH101 + MC101 & Boss RC500

video upload by drone-in-the-woods

"Having decided to finally ditch the Gaia and whilst patiently waiting for a Microkorg to turn up at the right price, I've been using less synths recently but using the MIDI synced looper to create additional layers. Portability is key and I can fit all this into one case.

Planning on recording a 'studio' version of this track soon with Nigel on Gyil.

"Recorded through a Roland Cube Mini amp (Mic setting, minimum gain)."

via this auction

Note technically a synth as it is electro-mechanical. Posting it more for historical purposes. Here's the description from the listing "This is a rare Hohner Cembalet CF electro-mechanical piano built around 1963 - 1966. Rather a harpsichord than a piano since it has no dynamic touch and reeds are plucked. Unit for sale has been serviced: reeds have been cleaned from corrosion, tuned and action has been set to ensure notes volumes are as consistant as possible through the whole keyboard. Due to the reed and plectrum system there may still be some slighjt difference in volume, sound or pitch, but overall it plays and sound very well."

Cube Synth Pro - DeepStrings II | Endless Delay | Weird Pad

"Additive Synthesis can't give you the nice warm sound of vintage gear ?
Look and hear for the opposite to be true.

Cube Synth Pro gives you the ability to mimic the behaviour of the sound characteristic of vintage polyphonic synths by modelling the slight deviation from perfection which are inherent of analog systems."

Roland Inspiration Centre - Synth Studio Tour | Toronto, Canada

Published on Oct 19, 2019 synth4ever

"An in-depth synth studio tour of the Roland Inspiration Centre in Toronto, Canada hosted by Dustin Good (keyboard/DJ product specialist at Roland Canada).

Roland Inspiration Centres allow musicians to try out the latest Roland and BOSS gear and attend exclusive events in Toronto and Vancouver. While visiting Toronto earlier in 2019 I was able to stop by and see the space in person.

In this studio tour, Dustin takes us through the Roland Inspiration Centre and goes over various Roland digital and analog synths, BOSS guitar effects pedals, guitar amps, drum machines, DJ equipment, and much more.

A big thanks to Dustin and Roland for having me drop by! To learn more about Roland Inspiration Centers in Vancouver and Toronto, visit: https://www.roland.com/ca/getinspired

Mammoth 5MU System With Many Extras - Smegmar The Medicant & Sysyphus

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

via this auction

List of modules at the listing and captured below.

"Large-format modular system offers: 40 modules of various brands and 150 Synthesizer.com modules. In addition, there are various power-related modules, mounted in the front and the rear.

The system is 275 MU’s front face panels spaces plus 32-more in the rear. Featuring: 27 full-range multi-waveform oscillators, 12-filters, 3 discrete MIDI interfaces, and 4 sequencers. ( not including the Matrixbrute features)

It has taken over a year to purchase and assemble all of the modules: this system is completely ready to use. Most of this system is housed in solid walnut cabinetry.

There are a few modules I bought in used condition, but the rest are new purchases. The cabinetry, controllers, and cabling are all new. After assembly, this system has not been moved, exposed to smoke, or touched by anyone but me.

The entire system is in excellent condition, with a couple of VERY minor scuffs where modules have been periodically installed and/or relocated...

History: I first purchased a Moog System-55 re-issue modular. I discovered Synthesizers.com when doing a simple google search. I learned their clone of the Moog Dual Sequencer Compliment wing was not only superior to that of the Moog’s, it was nearly 1/3 the price. So from there, I bought a System 66 and A/Bd both the tonal and functionality aspects of each to discover the Synthesizers.com sounded better to my ears, had more functions, and was more stable. I sold the Moog, and steadily expanded the system it is today.

I am 100% satisfied with this system.

It would take upwards of 6 months to get all of these modules (and a couple of these you may not able to get at all) and a significant amount of time to install and wire the modules, and assemble the large manual binder.

It also took 2 full days to convert 16 of the modules into their revised versions, yet I have not added the price of the conversion kits to the list below."

Rossum Morpheus Digital VCF Videos by Learning Modular

Published on Sep 27, 2017 Learning Modular

"The Morpheus is not your typical modular synth filter. To show what it can do in a variety of contexts, I created three different demos: one in a normal arpeggiated, enveloped patch (which includes an overview of the module), one for treating drones (think “slow modulation” possibilities), and one processing stereo drum loops. A fourth movie shows how to edit the “cube” presets, as well as set up sequences of presets."
