Jetzt hab ich das halbe Studio, wo kann ich Talent runterladen?
Leider bin ich bisher übers Experimentieren nicht herausgekommen, muss also weiterhin malochen.

#SynthSaturday #GregHawkes was the keyboardist for multiplatinum MTV rockers #TheCars. But pretty much nobody noticed when his solo album "Niagara Falls" was released in 1983. I sure didn't! It's a cool + eclectic mashup of the #Electro du jour, including #Ambient + #Krautrock + #SynthPop + even some #Devo. AFAIK It has never been re-released in any format. But downloads are available. Worth hunting down! ⚡ 🎹 🎶 👍 😁 #Music #NewWave #SynthWave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axNOY3NOqVo

#SynthSaturday Stevie! 1979! Kinda trippy groovy jazzy jam from "The Secret Life of Plants" soundtrack. Love the flangey drone. "Weeeeeyoooowwweeeeyoooow" that sorta thing. Kinda reminds me of #YMO. 🎵 🎶 🎹 ⚡ 😁 #Music #SynthWave #StevieWonder #Funk #Disco https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN0EansmJp0

#SynthSaturday #SaturdaySynth IMHO #GregHawkes' 15-second solo in #TheCars' "Bye Bye Love" is one of the most sublime moments in #RockNRoll ⚡ 🎹 👍 😁 #Music #Musicians #NewWave #ClassicRock #SynthWave #Synthesizer
#SynthSaturday Thought I knew a lot about electronic music but just discovered this guy. Apparently he played with #Hawkwind and #Gong and has lots of solo stuff. Found me another rabbit hole, wheee!!! ⚡ 🎹 🎶 👍 😁 #TimBlake #CrystalMachine #Synth #Synthesizers #Analog #Electro #Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZolrJ8OIrKk

#SynthSaturday bonus content!

This GILBERT is a relatively simple #analogSynth I built. It’s based around a few classic Roland #synthesizer designs from the late 70s/early 80s.

In the first picture, you can see the controls for the various sub-blocks of the synth, including the VCO and VCF.

The other photos are just fun shots of the guts from while I was building it.

Of course, there’s more to #synthesis than replicating acoustic instruments, but knowing the basics of how to produce similar sounds also gives you a better idea how to produce weirder, more alien sounds 👽👾🤖👹😈

VCOs and VCFs are barely even half the story when it comes to #AnalogSynths, but they’re the foundational building blocks to analog #SubtractiveSynthesis. Everything else hangs off this.

Buuuut this is long enough for now. So I’ll save that for next thread!

> the higher-frequency overtones die away and the “anggggg” part of the sound has a more pure tone

🤔 Well that sounds a lot like what a low pass filter does!

For a “pluck” sound, you’ll often set the VCF to pass more high frequencies initially, and then change the frequency of the VCF over time to cut more and more of those high frequencies.
