Highland ambience – Roland SH-1 & Eventide Space
Someone here recently asked me which of my synths was my favourite – I’d probably say the Roland SH-1, followed by the Micromoog perhaps. This is a re-recording of something I uploaded 3 years ago, and I initially posted this on my other channel ‘tomorrowthecure’, but since so few find that channel I thought I’d upload it here too. The outdoor footage is from the highlands of Scotland, the camera was old, and youtube compression has made it look even worse, but the the sounds and images are connected in my mind, so there it is.
Korg MS-20M – the second sighting
the SQ-1 is used for sequencing, does it very well 
A little bit H9 Reverb was used, nothing else.
The video is in 3 parts, the part 2 and 3 are going a bit more the “modular way”…
Harp as you never heard before
Fantastic perfomance!

Futuresonus announces analog poly Parva coming summer 2015
The Futursonus Parva Synthesizer
Each of Parva’s eight voices features three digitally-controlled analog oscillators, producing sawtooth, triangle, and PWM waveforms with accurate pitch and tuning stability.
A pair of two-pole state-variable filters can be configured for a 12dB or 24dB low-pass or high-pass response, or split for bandpass or notch filtering. Four four-stage envelope generators and four multi-waveform low-frequency oscillators feed a flexible modulation matrix, allowing for virtually limitless sound design options.
Key Features:
Eight voice polyphonic synthesizer with flexible voice assignment
Three oscillators per voice
Flexible dual filters
4 LFOs
100% analog signal path
Digital patch management and control
USB master port so you can connect USB MIDI controllers directly to it

Parva is expected to ship in Summer 2015. Pre-orders will begin in February, with the standard polyphonic Parva retailing for under $1000. An expandable monophonic version will also be available for under $500.

Piano ambience
recorded a couple notes on my piano and added them to Absynth.In sample mode I had the 3 OSC all play the samples back at different times
Cuckoo tries his new Monomachine
I recently got the Monomachine, and thought I’d share my first sound experiments. I love it! The only sounds that are based on custom waves are the ones used in the last tune (Metroid 8-bit). I snagged them from Chipsounds for some Nintendo love 😉
I’ll do some proper videos later, but I thought I’d just share what I have so far. Also I bought a new pair of speakers/ monitors – so hopefully there will be no more mud in my mixes. Already I think it sounds much better than what I’ve been doing earlier.
