Doepfer Dark Time sequencing
Here’s a new Doepfer video from Skoulaman, enjoy:
My next upload of the Relastic Concertmate MG-1 shows the connection with the Doefper Dark Time, a realy nice combination because teh DT does have CV and gate connections for (old) analog synths and Midi. Conneting the Moog Little Phatty with the MIDI out of the DT was the next step. I had to tune the Realistic with the Moog LP because the CV signal is not callibrated. It is just a demo, so musical the quality is not high. In the end I put some other synth sounds to it (and about the stereo effect, you can here sweeping the roland 106 when I open the filter cutoff). I found the Electrix for a fancy price because it is a very nice effect, at most for live situations.
Rotoseq – rotary sequencer
http://www.rarebeasts.com
This is a hand generator cranked rotary sequencer. It has 8 slots and 4 sounds and uses 4 LDRs into a picaxe to make sounds.
Sorry about the sound of the dynamo it was sitting next to the mic.
KORG MS20 vs NonLinear Circuits Sequencer
Two Korg MS 20 synths sequenced by a NonLinear Sequencer .
Left Korg sequenced by bindubba3 – 16 stage with gate outputs for each stage.
One clock controls horizontal travel, the other controls vertical travel.
Right Korg sequenced by Bindubba1 – 4 stage sequencer with 16 control voltage outputs (CV) and 8 gate outputs that are divisions of the input clock signal from/1 to /128.
The sequencers use a 1V/octave CV and a S-trigger gate.
Korgs use Hz/V and a S-trigger gate.
Seems to work fine though.
AudioGL Video 3 – Modular Software Synthesizer and Sequencer
This is a very cool demo of the AudioGL modular, check it out
Another update on the AudioGL project. This video features a crowdfunding announcement, and a software demonstration.
Crowdfunding Campaign:

Background information:
AudioGL is a Modular Software Synthesizer and Sequencer. It is designed to allow musicians to create complex compositions with ease. AudioGL has a dynamic 3D interface which focuses on streamlining workflow, so composers can spend less time navigating the interface, and more time writing music.
Here are the specifications of the computer I have been using to develop AudioGL
Make/Model: Lenovo X61 Tablet
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8ghz
Graphics: Intel X3100 (low quality integrated graphics card)
Audio: M-Audio Fasttrack Pro & ASIO4All
Display: 1024×768 (Laptop) – 1280×1024 (External)
As you can see, AudioGL does not require a high performance computer. If your system specifications are close to or higher than mine, AudioGL should run just fine for you.
Although the interface is rendered in 3D, it does not consume any more resources than a typical 2D interface. Furthermore, the graphical quality of the interface can be raised or lowered, depending upon your preferences.
The synthesizer is designed towards low CPU usage without compromising sound quality. To provide both, the instruments you create in AudioGL will only consume CPU when they are playing. This makes it possible to create a large composition on an underpowered laptop, provided that you only have so many instruments playing at one point in time.
The Detachment 3 Engineering Archangel
Suit and Tie Guy shows us The Detachment 3 Engineering Archangel. It is a 16×4 sequencer that can send and receive midi and din sync.
Analogue Solutions VOSTOK MATRIXSYNTH v2 – Modular Suitcase Synth Demo
Here’s an extended look at the Analogue Solutions Vostok MATRIXSYNTH synthesizer.
This demo features a variety of sound types and sequences (traditional and non-traditional) demonstrating the Vostok’s sound palette and variety of timbres. All sounds, with exception of the obvious acoustic drums (used for context), are created on the Vostok using either traditional patching or the pin matrix — or a combination of both.
Sounds are being driven by either the on-board sequencer, MIDI sync (via GATE to CLOCK), or direct MIDI connection to a controller keyboard.
Emphasis for this video was more traditional synth sounds (basses, leads, sequences) as there are plenty of non-traditional (fx, ambient, noise) sound demonstrations on YouTube. The filter section at the heart of the Vostok was also a focal point of this video and is tweaked extensively for the various sound types.
Also, see the Telemetry (mini Vostok) in action at the following link:

KEY FEATURES OF VOSTOK Pure analogue voice circuitry. Suitcase style design. 22×22 matrix pin panel. Rugged Steel construction. Quality chrome catches and cool steel spring handle. Stuffed full of electronics. No front panel space is wasted. Joystick, retro-VU meter, MIDI, jack socket patch points, more, more, more!

About the video:
A few days ago I made this 12 note based sequence track with the Doepfer Dark Time.
I used a 3 oscillator tone of the Waldorf Micro Q (two triangles and one sinus) in a very basic setting (and I think that is the power of a Waldorf because you can do very well basic synth tones as complicated pads for example) and a base tone of the Moog LP. During the track the sounds are tweaked. The solo came from the Korg DS-8, it is a preset with a long echo and with a pitch change in the end of the envelope. It is not one of my best tracks but just a tweak with my setup. Neverthelss enjoy listening.
The vid is made during my trip to my work (yes, on a very quit chrismas holiday day) on a highway round Amsterdam at 06:30 in the morning.

DarkWave Studio updated to v3.8.4
DarkWave Studio is a free modular virtual studio for the synthesis of electronic music. It has a built in pattern editor and sequencer. It allows you to load various machines such as virtual instruments and effects and connect them in a modular and straightforward fashion. DarkWave can load VST instruments and effects and it can also load machines using the DarkPlug API, which was custom made for DarkWave.
DarkWave natively supports both x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit) versions of Windows with native binaries compiled for each platform. The x86 and x64 versions can each only load plugins for that platform, i.e. the x64 version only loads 64-bit VST and DarkPlug plugins.
Recent Changes
v3.8.4
- Fixed A Crash Loading Project With Missing PlugIns.
- Fixed Incorrect Storing Of VST PlugIn Unique ID.
- Added A Warning When Saving A Project That Was Written In An Older File Format To The Current Version Of The Program.
