Korg Radias – Two Ways To Live
Youtube alias MrRidgebackman has released this video featuring the KORG Radias, his details below:
This is a piece performed on the Korg Radias, using both Step Sequencers and played live. I took one of the presets and played around with the settings and the sounds.
Recorded live into Logic Pro 9 and then added the drums from Logic. Only processing used is Compression, no other effects used.
Hope you enjoy
Cheers Andy

An 8-Step Sequence: Analogue Solutions Oberkorn & Telemark-K (Keyboard)
Here’s a quick video demonstrating an 8-step sequence using the Analogue Solutions Oberkorn analogue sequencer. Sequence reset is triggered via Gate X out.
Bass provided by the new Telemark-K keyboard while the filter is opened and closed by Oberkorn. Transposition is done via the TM-K (keys).

Beat Bricks – A LEGO Step Sequencer
Made at ADVANCE HACKATHON 2012 in Cologne using a webcam, Python, OpenCV, OSC, MIDI and Ableton Live.
What you need: a camera, Ableton Live, and some code for analyzing the camera image and translating those events into MIDI messages that Ableton Live can turn into sound. It’s the work of Bonn, Germany-based artist/creative coder superquadratic.

iPad app spotlight: step poly arp
Here are the details:
This is a quick demo of an iPad app ‘step poly arp’. It sends midi via wifi to a DAW running Logic. The sound is generated by Arturia’s Jupiter 8V. The combination isn’t quite stable yet, even with an ‘ad hoc’ connection between the iPad and Mac. I haven’t yet figured why…still, the app looks very promising.
Custom scales in WerkBench! **Sneak preview!**
Get WerkBench here: http://bit.ly/L6jhd9
WerkBench is a live sampling step sequencer. There is nothing else like it! The next update (1.03) includes the ability to easily define custom tuning and scales.
Now you can use WerkBench to turn any sound into awesome melodies.
In this demo, I build a beat quickly and then play with this new feature with sounds from a Casio.
WerkBench features:
–“Fancy Controls” (pitch, lowpass filters, envelopes, and more!)
–Edit pitch and levels independently for each step!
–Funky lo-fi tape echo for spacey effects with a sweet real-time visualizer.
–The two sequencers can be chained to make a 32 step sequencer!
–Save and load loops.
–Export loops and recordings via Audio Copy, iTunes file sharing, and email.
–MIDI sync and MIDI trigger modes
–Custom scales (never play a wrong note!)
seqSQUARED: The Analogue Pattern Generator
