I Saw Tooth

video upload by Kaffimusic

"This is a video I have made for a live music video 'challenge' at the German synth forum sequencer.de. I won with that. But there was nothing to win but experience and honor.
The center of this setup is the MPC One. It plays just midi pattern that I composed beforehand for the GS Music E7, the small Roland and the Novation Peak. The Kurzweil is not controlled, but the E7 runs through the audio ins and is used as a FX processor with delay and reverb for the E7. The PC4 is just played with internal sounds here. Switches and sliders are either set to control internals, the E7 or the fx. I progammed a multi that is able to play the sounds via switch and control the fx as well.
The last pattern is a respectfully stolen melody of Ehsan Gelsi. The whole style of this live sequencing is the technique he shows in his videos."

Crafting a bass drum on the LXR-02

video upload by Richard DeHove

"The strange and diabolic art of the bass drum. The bringer of strict order and strength when tamed; the cause of untold misery and chaos when adrift.

Here I try to show what arts and potions are available on the LXR-02 to give you mastery over this wicked imp.

Bigkik - Model Wave 1 (Elektron Model:Samples)

video upload by bigkik

"I got recently a 2nd hand Model:Samples and really enjoy it.

For this track, I was deeply inspired by one of my favorite artist : 'The Toxic Avenger' and especially his latest track 'Acid Machine'. I especially loved its bassline.

Again i only used the provided sounds but played extensively with the sequencer, the conditional trigs and the lfo.

I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did composing it !"

DVRST - Close Eyes (Elektron Model:Samples instrumental cover)

video upload by bigkik

"Despite its 64 steps limit, you are not stuck with 4 bars by adjusting the "duration" of each step a little bit like the Roland J-6 sequencer. And with the conditional trigs, you can easily program variations in a single pattern.

I only used the samples provided in the unit."
