Analogue Solutions – Leipzig-S Analogue Synthesizer Improvised Demo
http://youtu.be/2G3vL6JCdGE
Allen Weldon takes us through the Leipzig-S analog synth:
This is the Analogue Solutions Leipzig-S Analogue Synthesizer and intergraded analogue sequencer. This is a synthesizer with pure voice and modulation circuitry featuring two voltage controlled oscillators w/4 types of selectable sync plus glide and PWM, a sub oscillator, 4 VCA Options EG 1&2,Gate and Thru, a noise source/ext in, LFO, a self resonating 24db voltage controlled low pass filter w/tracking, several cross modulation options for VCO 1 & 2 and Filter, 2 snappy ADSR’s w/selectable MIDI Trig Switches (very good for percussion) The intergraded 8 step analogue sequencer is what puts it into a league of its own. There are 8 clocking options including LFO, VCO2, MIDI Key, Accent, Ext 1, MIDI CV-2, MIDI Sync,-. There are also destination knobs on the sequencer for VCO1 VCO2 and Filter that provide voltage controlled modulation according to the destination source and amount from the modulation section. This is a badass synthesizer that is in a category of its own.
In this patch I’m using the intergraded sequencer clocked by VCO2. The sequencer is being triggered by EG 1+2 (I’m also using the MIDI Trigger switches from Envelope 1 & 2) VCO2 is synced to VCO1. The VCA mode is set to Thru. Towards the end I started clocking the sequencer using the switch provided in the mixer section. It clocks the sequencer at audio frequencies, then the sequencer becomes an audio freqeuncy.
Vintage Radio Synth
Background details (Googlish): Using an old broken radio to accommodate a mini analogue synthesizer and processor that uses an envelope filter, plus a basic VCO, delay effect, LFO (Pitch modulation and filtering) and audio input.
However I reused circuit area, especially are most reels, now occasionally leak radio signals that can be processed.
This box is a Mono Synth, Audio Processor and Radio signal generator!

Time for another Ableton tutorial on this sunny Sunday morning, check it out – details can be found below:
http://ohdratdigital.com This week we’re looking at how you can get started chopping vocal melody lines in Ableton Live to get sounds great for that UK Garage, Future Garage, Dubstep sound. Think Todd Edwards, Sunship, et al. Let us know what you think!
Checking out some Kawai K3 patches and sounds of the Yamaha DX-7 MK1
“Just messing around with Kawai K3 patches, selecting some parameters, controlling with the main wheel, sequenced by Ableton w reverb/delay.”

DIY synth: MFOS Alien Screamer Noise Box
The MFOS Alien Screamer Noise Box is a great introduction to synth-diy electronics. This simple circuit can really make a lot of cool sounds and it has a speaker and amp built in. It runs off of one nine volt battery and draws very little current. PC boards are available and kits will be soon also. You can find the entire project here: http://www.musicfromouterspace.com/index.php?MAINTAB=SYNTHDIY&PROJARG=ALI…
