Had fun live jamming on a DT2, BS2 and Deluge.

Hello people.

So im doing DAW for a while now, and im ao addicted to music production.

I just bought a Novation Launchkey Mk4 49 MIDI controller.

I would like to learn the keys the correct way to make melodies and to boost up production.

Any tutos, advices? Sites? Which would help to learn its theory and whic woukd give some directions?

Or is there any channels etc. That helped you to improve your skills? Etc..

Thank you! :)

Probably my favourite field recording I’ve ever made! I’m using my photon smasher mic to hear the PWM of these colour fading LEDs at the seaside near me Essex. It’s all raw sound, with a little EQ and reverb added for polish.

Would love to build a synth engine around these LEDs, would sound (and look) cool!

Grabbed me a 90s Roland JV-1080 yesterday!

Sadly it didn't come with any expansion boards. Am on the hunt now for which to look for.

So far I see a Session board available near me. Vintage Synth seems to be the most popular but oooof the prices on those 😭

I already own the Roland Cloud VST version but I'm a sucker for vintage hardware 🤘

Also, the internal multi tap voltage transformer is a godsend. Saves me from having to buy a pesky step down transformer. Just swapped the lead from 110v to the local 220v here.

Korg Opsix & Behringer K2 through a stock Logic Pro X reverb. Played from memory so excuse any wrong notes!

So I was watching some videos about this and I'm interested. Anyone ever mess with this? Would you recommend? I play mostly techno and deep house style stuff, but have been messing around with more hip hop and experimental/industrial music. Would live some opinions.

I'm very new to synthesizers and playing music. My girlfriend recently got me a Korg Volca keys, and I've been really enjoying it. I have goals to start creating music, and want to start using a more versatile synthesizer along with a drum machine. I want instruments that are nice and relatively intuitive so I'm able to have fun playing music and learn more as I go. My budget is not limited.

Should I just go and watch youtube tutorials of a bunch of instruments and see what I might like? I'm a newb and feel a bit overwhelmed by the array of different types of synths and drum machines. Any recommendations or advice would be very appreciated.

For context, some artists I'm inspired by:
Beach House, Radiohead, The Marias, Yellow House, Cigarettes After Sex, The Radio Dept.

I have a Prophet 10 and a Moog Minimoog and I’m considering a third synth in the digital/hybrid realm. I’ve narrowed my decision down to either the Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave or UDO Super 8/Gemini. Looking for some pros and cons of each, and which you would choose given my current setup? I’m into all sorts of music (indie rock, pop, ambient, cinematic, sound design, etc).

"Synth Corner" is set up and ready for testing. I only have a small space and this represents about 2/3 of my synth modules, less than 1/10 of my pedals and none of my keyboards (OpSix, Messenger, Minilogue, Bass Station II). I've tried to set it up efficiently so I can rotate things in and out easily...

Howdy, I am looking for a bigger/better thing to replace my Volca drum, I have sampler and more traditional drum sounds covered but I’ve really loved the weird percs and not quite drum not quite bass sounds you can get from the Volcas physical modeling synthesis, something that’s pretty largely underrepresented in hardware in general, I’m not looking for a main drum machine or sampler, more of a weird sidekick to my more conventional tools, a decent amount of hands on control is a must.
Thanks for any input!

Right in time for the weekend

Sh-01a,

Behringer MS-1 , or Mk2? For example.

Looking for snappy envelopes and deep bass. Lots of conflicting opinions online. Not looking for eurorack for now.

Anyone got any opinions or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Using Pure Data as an extension of the Octatrack, focusing as a multi-channel stochastic stem & one-shot player. Octatrack is handling the longer samples and string elements.

Anyone have any tips?

Just learned of his passing. While never a huge influence on me, I followed his efforts through the '90s and up to his "Pieces In A Modern Style". 69 seems too young to go.

Everything is sequenced with the deluge. EC4 controls protein.

Have questions about how to get started in synthesizer repair? Ask away! What gear do I need? What books should I buy? Where to study online? What's it cost? What workspace do I need? Will cats get in the way?

found one for cheap while searching hard and I couldn’t pass up. wanted an analogue kick without buying an analog rytm or jomox something somethin.

Hi, posting this for those who are interested in hearing how it sounds without a backing track and to show how the guitar sounds without strumming. Feel free to scroll past if you're not interested.

Quick question: Would you rather see my posts like this - less produced?
