so a few things have gone on, first off apologising for the time change on the livestream. my absolute mistake, I should have known the clocks went forward for daylights saving time the night before. a bit of info on what Hainbach and cuckoo were over for swell as a few other things including Mar...

Today I answer a question from a post below about the instrumentation. Might be of interest. If you are planning on coming this weekend to the museum, the digisound will be back over there! All good there.
As for the second half of the video it’s about the next machine video which is the ...

here's the tune! its live. if you havent already check the post below! as there is a take directly from the synth into the camera audio in, this version has a few bits doubled up, as mentioned below with these classical ones I get the synth to play the song twice then flick the octave switch on s...

Here is something I'm working on for this weekends video. (inspired by seeing my rendition of sarabande pop up at the start of Colins latest bunker vid!) It re lit the idea of making more synth renditions of well known classics.
First take is a live take of the modular (and proper 600...

so I am aware not everyone can attend the cuckoo/hainbach meet and greet! geographically its a challenge! so I figured id do a 45min-1hour livestream on the day. walking around talking to the people there as well as cuckoo and Hainbach and what not. when would be a preferable time in the meet and...

here are some funky sfx sounds you can chop and slice and use on whatever. mainly some nice noise crescendos/lasers/whale sounds. and helicopters in the distance. this is a few from a video I will be putting up tomorrow on the MS10.which in my opinion is a damn fine synthesizer in sound and ergon...

Here is where that machine is at. After a lot of slow projects on the go at the minute musical and machine wise I figured let’s pick this project back up! If I had to start this from scratch again I would go a whole other direction! But here we go 😂

I have managed to wired the sideman in direct to get a direct recording, I run through all of the patterns on different speeds, and at the end of the file I do single hits so you can use those also!

Yet another reasonably luckily timed situation. On a telecommunication Facebook group about a synth that someone was going to take to the swap meet which I would not have been able to make. It happened to be a DIY magazine synth I had been hunting for for a while. Chatted to the fine fellow who h...

here is a part I decided to make for this weekends video, I thought it would be nice just doing a full run down of the whole series. there are a couple missing as they dont concern the current Digisound I have and I will be touching on later in the video for instance the DRF and Keyboard controll...

today we take a look in the keyboard/power supply module and remove all of the modules

next step is to pull all of the modules out, and also check the power supply and set it to right voltages! to figure out what's making it all noisy. then its a whole load of contact cleaner!!!

the RFM module is basically the formants answer to an EQ, it can be pretty SHRILL at times I warn you now!! its basically 3 band pass filters that are mixed in parallel to the normal audio, which causes phasing and in turn funky EQ.
hopefully a video on the formant will be up tomorrow...

So thanks to josh crucfx sending me this listing that was listed for £350. I’m amazed I got hold of it and everyone in the line before me either stopped responding or backed out. But nether the less it’s retro diy synth month! Check for livestreams and vids on both channels on both of the sy...
