In this video, I review the miniKORG 700Sm and compare it with the 700FS and the original designs. I explore its oscillators, filters, envelopes, modulation and performance controls, including a
In this video, I explore the Speak & Glitch GND 1T and its approach to experimental sound. I go through speech, morphing, randomization, filters, looping and modulation, followed by the
SteamPipe from Erica synths and 112db is unlike most synths. Rather than having a linear signal path with simple or complex oscillators and filters, Steampipe pairs an exciter with a
In this video, I compare UDO’s Super Gemini, Super 8 and Super 6. I explore the differences in controls and layering, then go through the synthesis workflow, modulation, arpeggiator and
In this video, I share thirty advanced ideas, tips and tricks for Ableton Move. I explore capture, sequencing, sampling, effects, macros, expression and ways to work around limitations, then wrap
In this video, I explore Maschine 3 and Maschine Central to see what the upgrade adds. I compare stem separation with MPC, look at scene tempo, bouncing and editing changes,
