Do I smell synthesizers?
Feedback baby!
Finding my favourite combos on the @udo_audio DMNO. Still deep into Cascade where one DMNO is fed into the other for double filtering, whilst the oscillators of the second are only single filtered.
A twist is to use the feedback option to run the output back into DMNO 1 and then add some harmonic distortion in the FX section. Careful with the levels otherwise it's a screamfest. :)

If you want to hear me rabbiting on about composing music for TV and why I started a YouTube channel, I had a lovely chat with @davidbennettpiano which is live on his "How do you do" podcast on YouTube.

Several drum manufacturers had a punt at drum synths in the late 70s and early 80s (Pearl, Tama, Premier, Gretsch) and Sonor was one of them. 🥁

Superboob!
Wonderful to hang out with so many amazing people. The synths were quite cool too.

Korg MS-20 vs 2 SQ-10 Sequencers!
Testing one out that's been repaired and thought it would be fun to double sequence the MS-20 for polymetric shenanigans.
Drums - various samples from my library added in post.

Peeeeewww!!!
Been working on a Potted History of Drum Synthesizers on and off for a couple of years, but wanted it done right with demos of all the things. This blue wonder is one of the final bits to film!
Features a big collab with @tuggthedrummer_nathan_curran as this is his specialist subject.
Also featuring @sawsquaresine
ETA - some time after the inevitable flurry of Superbooth product videos.

Thorough silliness test confirmed.
This is the Korg X-911 controlled by guitar (as originally intended) and it's the goofiest thing Korg made in the 70s.
SuperDrums for added cackness and MS-01 voltage pedal for filter control.

Korg's Silliest Synth
I've tried about 4 of these things over the years and they have such a daft sound that I almost like them, but even for my vintage taste, it's a bit too silly.
The X-911 is a guitar synth from 1979 and you can run a guitar through it and control the onboard synth voices with pitch to CV, but that's even wonkier than what you're hearing. It's like the ESP on the MS-20, but somehow worse.
What's a synth you should like on paper, but don't in practice?

Double 104 action!
Testing this one out after a repair. Problem is, I now want two as it's pretty fun.
