This video, via Motohiko Takeda, documents the Polytron – a DIY polyphonic Monotron.
The Polytron uses a custom MIDI setup, built around MIDI-Bare, to distribute the signal from the MIDI controller to multiple individual Korg Monotron synthesizers.

Time machine: ROLAND JX-3P Analog Synthesizer 1983
Time for a new vintage machine demo, additional details below:
You can buy these patches – read the description for further details.
Synthesizer demo of the analog synthesizer Roland JX-3P from 1983.
In this movie I play some of my own sounds – on some sounds I used a small amount of digital delay from a Roland DEP-5 (my favourite unit for delays). In the intro I used the sequencer of the JX-3P.
The JX-3P has a flexible sound architecture with 2 DCOs, oscillator synch, ring modulation and more LFO waveforms. Just one ADSR, like the Juno series. It also has chorus (just one setting).The JX-3P has not many sliders and knobs… you get them if you buy the programmer PG-200 from Roland.

THE SOUND PROGRAMS IN THIS MOVIE:
Do you own a Roland JX-3P or a MKS-30 and want to get these fantastic sounds for your synth?
The brandnew “ANALOGAUDIO1 JX-3P PATCH BANK” costs 12,99 Euros and includes 64 great patches (two banks with 32 patches) fat analog pads, great retro sounds, fantastic basses, sequencer sounds and funky leads (in one word: all you hear in the video and some more).
As an experienced synth player and composer I created these patches for professional use. This patchbank gets the most out of your Roland JX-3P. Also included is a patch list (PDF), to find the right sounds quickly. The sounds are not available anywhere else.
The patchbank will only work with the JX-3P and with the MKS-30 Planet S (which is the rack format of the JX-3P).
After payment through PayPal you will get the patchbank as a sound file (wav) for the built in tape interface of your JX-3P and a patchlist (list with names of the patches) via email.
If you want to buy the “ANALOGAUDIO1 JX-3P PATCHBANK”, send a message to ceramic-man@gmx.de (and check your spam folder, I answer quickly).

Listen to the 20K$ Schmidt 8 Voice analog polyphonic synthesizer
Honestly not sure if this is something we’ll ever ‘stock’ or be able to sell you, but it was too cool not to post! The second part of this video features direct stereo sound in from the 8 Voice.

heavy duty controller
If you are tired of flimsy plastic controllers, this is for you!
MiniBrute + MicroBrute = “how cool is that?” according to Marc Doty
Marc Doty shows how to make use of the Arturia combo. Very cool stuff!
The Arturia Microbrute: MiniBrute + MicroBrute
Here is a description of some of the functionality associated with the connection of the Arturia MicroBrute to the Arturia MiniBrute: which results in a very powerful duophonic analog synthesizer.
For all of you who are inclined to respond “LESS TALK, MORE PLAYING!” In this particular instance, I agree. I really need to do a lot of “sounds of” videos of this combination to make up for it.
