Ableton Live Push Sunday Jam
Background video description:
Last week I finally got the Ableton Push, so this sunday I’ve tried to recreate a song on the push only to find out what you can do on the push itself and as a learning experiment. I’ve recreated a very old trance classic called Alphabet Blue – Cybertrance.

The Roland SH-2 Experience
The Roland SH-2 analog monosynth was a kind of SH-101 but with an extra oscillator and no sequencer – very much with the livery of the SH-09 – which is a nice bass monosynth
Demo of the Roland SH-2 vintage analogue synth. Driven via cv using kenton midi to cv converter and midi sent from Orion daw. Fx indicator on top left visible when used.
Anckorage Spring – new free physical modeling synth for IOS
Christophe Duquesne has released Anckorage Spring – a new physical modeling synth for IOS (iPhone,iPad and iPod).
Anckorage Spring is based on “the simulation of a set of connected mass- spring, integrating non-linearities, fluid and static friction, mechanical limits, gravity and bouncing.”
It is designed to be controlled by a continuous controller but can be used with a regular keyboard or directly from the device screen or from other core MIDI apps. According to Duquesne, a continuous controller will provide a much more accurate control of the model.
The mains ideas behind Anckorage Spring are:
- Being able to tweak real world parameter like Mass, Force, Gravity, etc. instead of tweaking usual electronic parameters,
- Not only try to mimic real world, but also allow very “unusual” things like modulating a Mass and changing the Gravity,
- Emphasis control and expression using the physical parameters,
- Open a new world of sound to experiment with….
Features:
- Real physical modeling sound engine
- Fully editable physical model
- 88 200 Hz internal sampling rate
- Special Haken Continuum compliance
- Playable by any midi device
- Core midi base (therefore including virtual midi and network midi compliance)
- On device touch control
- Rich preset management
- Preset exchange mechanism (through iTunes Share)
- All parameters controllable by MIDI CC
- Audiobus compliant
A few minutes with an Oberheim SEM Pro
Checking out the Oberheim SEM Pro, background video description below:
“Just had it for a day or two, so I’m still a bit hunt-and-peck when it comes to the controls. Sounds delightful though. No effects, straight into a mixer and out to the camera’s input.”
SEM-PRO. SEM with MIDI to CV Converter and integrated Patchpanel. This version combines the features of the MIDI to CV version with a 21-jack patchpanel and is personally autographed by Tom Oberheim.
- Select MIDI channel, controller number and bend range
- Select note assignment modes: latest, high note and low note priorities
- Select note re-trigger, filter track, LFO reset
- A second independent control bus allows velocity, controller data, or channel pressure to modulate either or both VCOs, the filter and the VCA
- Transpose function allows different keyboard controllers to utilize the complete MIDI note range
- Analog portamento
- Input preamp gain control – allows an external audio input to be processed thru the SEM
- High precision A-440 Hz tune signal
- Control voltages and gate are bought out to rear panel connectors so MIDI to CV function can be used with other CV/Gate gear.
Sextuor pour KORG analogique synthétiseur
KORG analog synths performance, details below:
Trying to make soundscape or something, improvising with all of my KORG analog synthesizers.
KORG monotron / monotron Duo / monotron Delay / MS-20 mini / Volca Beats/ Volca Keys. SFX with VOX DelayLab ( for MS-20 mini ) / Lexicon MX200 ( entire ), mixed with Behringer MX400 and TAPCO MIX.100, recorded with Zoom Q3HD.
.. and .. also KROME is used as a table for those analog stuffs .
