Commodore 64 LIVE DEMO
Live demo of one of my songs.
Bassline is played by an good old C64 equipped with Cynthcart.
Tune is called “we ain’t finished yet” and has been featured on DEAD PIXELS long play.
In 2009 I began experimenting with SID chiptune (built-in sound generator chip of Commodore 64), and Cynthcart to create a blend of original 8bit sound from the 80’s and Rock music.

Concretedog’s BLARP CMOS Synth
Here’s what he has to say about it:
A quick video of my new build “BLARP” a small portable perfboard based synth instrument built mainly using CMOS 4000 series IC’s.
Been working on this synth for a while and it’s finally finished. Its mainly made from CMOS 4000 IC’s and is designed to be portable and noisy! It’s a modular system and uses trimpots and header sockets instead of pots and patch cables, this has 2 benefits, cheapness and smallness. More information about the synth here.
Korg iMS20 controlled by Korg Legacy MS20 hardware
If you have a old Korg Legacy MS20 USB controller in a cupboard then dig it out and dust it off because it works as a 1-1 controller with the Korg iMS20 iPad app – no joke. Even patching with physical cables on the controller is mirrored on the iMS20 app. Caveats: naturally you need the Apple USB iPad adaptor but you also have to connect the MS20 controller via a powered hub. Not all powered hubs seem to work with this combo so try a few. Please don’t ask me where to get the MS20 controllers from, they went out of production about 5 years ago.
Of course you’ll need the Korg iMS20 app (v1.1 or higher) running on an iPad with the Camera Connection Kit – which includes the requisite USB adaptor. To be honest initially it wasn’t exactly plug n’ play and it took me a few attempts to to get the iPad to recognise the MS20. The reason for this is that iPad wont let you use any external MIDI hardware that draws more than a minuscule amount of power but the MS20 controller needs quite a bit of USB juice. Unfortunately the MS20 doesn’t include an external PSU socket so you’ll need to use a powered USB hub as a bridge between the two. I’m not entirely sure why but it seems not all powered hubs are equal to the iPad (or the MS20) and it wasn’t until I tried my third hub (a small Belkin unit) that the iPad recognised the controller. Actually there’s a free App called MIDI Monitor that can be useful in these situations.

Creating Drum Sounds on the Telemark Synthesizer
This brief demo features a demonstration as well as custom patch sheets for how to create basic analogue drum sounds. The resulting drums are then combined to produce a small tune featured in the video.
Note: If recreating these sounds, PAUSE the video on the patch sheet page and dial in the settings on your Telemark. It would be helpful to maximize the video to full screen and to turn on HD for clarity (and better audio).
Headphones are also recommended to hear the sub frequencies of the kick drum and other deeper percussion.
The Oberkorn 16 step sequencer was used to create the various patterns via its X/Y gate outputs. Occasionally, CV A was used to dynamically change an attribute of a sound (and is noted in the video).
An Analogue Solutions Telemetry pin matrix synth provides the aggressive, unprocessed synth line under the drums.
POLYKEYS beta
PolyKeys by ASWAVE is a freeware Virtual Analog Polyphonic Softsynth Synthesizer and as been around since 2006 in beta form and is still updated for time to time. filled with a few presets that show the diversity of the vsti plugin and is capable of a who lot more sounds to create another true classic synth from the freeware world of vst plugins instruments and effects.
in this video i have tried to show the range of sounds that can be made with this synth classic, rather that make it sound musical.
please note
the most irrating thing about downloading this classic synth is that you have to add a websearch engine to your web browers as homepage or add to tabs before refreshing and downloading this plugin, i say except it and delete later on if you wish

REX Jockeying with Livid OHM64 and Reason 5
Reason maestro Peff is back with a new video:
Video overview of using the OHM64 with Reason 5 to create a live pa setup to switch loop slots and crossfade between sources and effects. It’s not really music composition, but more like Loop Jockeying.
Controls are mapped via standard remote override mapping, however this setup requires a bit of remote codec hacking to alter the behavior of the function keys and top 4 rows of buttons.
