Best Ambient Synth Shootout #142: Roland V-Synth - Song 2
This is the second (lazy sunday) recording with the Roland V-Synth. The V-Synth was Rolands flagship synthesizer released in 2003. It is 16-part multitimbral with up to 24-voices polyphony, featuring analog modeling and PCM waveforms with user sampling that can independently manipulate pitch, time and formant thanks to Rolands VariPhrase technology.
I used for the recording the following FX pedals:
Pigtronix Echolution² Deluxe, GFI System Specular Reverb², Sony DPS-V77
The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase. The fi...

This is the third song with the Mega MIDI by Aidan Lawrence. It's an FM synthesizer based on either the YM2612 yamaha chip (used here and in SEGA Genesis / Megadrive home consoles and various SEGA arcade game systems, including the Mega-Play, System 18, and System 32) or the cleaner sounding YM3438 chip without the crossover distortion in the output.

Evening Synths Challenge #2 - Modal Skulpt, VXXY DCM8, Teenage Engineering PO-16 factory

This session was quite challenging. A VA synth, a rare digital chiptune drum machine and a small bare bone synth. Overall, I'm very happy with the result.

      I built myself. I wanted a vertical system for my small desktop synths to save space. The depth of the racks are just 20 cm. Enough to hide the power strip, midi splitter and all the cables.

      @christianssonicspaces494 29 дней назад

      Many thanks for your nice comment :-) Yes, the racks for my Boutiques, Volcas and Livens/GR-1/Microfreak are all DIY. It's the best way to save rare work space and it makes it more easy to tweak them in this vertical position ;-)

    • @ontwerper
      @ontwerper 28 дней назад

      @@christianssonicspaces494 Yes that makes sense. I have some vertical wall space left with limited depth, so excellent for a Wall of Boutiques! I'll just need to find a proper set of pins to hold the Boutiques in the correct position.

    • @christianssonicspaces494
      @christianssonicspaces494 Месяц назад

      I think the Ambient 0 is the more flexible one for ambient music because that's what it was developed for. The West Pest is designed for sound discovery of the Buchla synth concept. Percussive, dynamic sounds can be created more easy than lush pad sounds. I think that the two complement each other very well. I love both :-)

    Very VERY nice song, perfect mix and interesting stereo field. These Boutiques from Roland are the brightest gems for the poor man who can't buy a Muse or PB12. Incredible sound quality, high output preamps, no gain staging, AND... physical control of the digital synth. Physical control of digital synths is soooooooooo rare, with Roland leading the way with JD-800, JP-8000, Gaia, Gaia2 and most the Boutiques.

      Yes, I made them myself because I only have very limited work space in my small music studio. The desktop synthesizers are much clearer and easier to use when you arrange them vertically, similar to a 19'' rack. And you can stack them as high as you like ;-) Mine are 120 cm high.
