White Light/White Heat by Velvet Underground sounds like it's about to go poof any second

my Tangerine Dream tribute page

covers of some of my favorite TD:

i shoot for getting most of the timbres close and the arrangements 80-90 % but not 'copies'

:geek: hopefully you deem me not a total nincompoop for attempting these in the 1st place :clown: :cheese:

it says they "custom build 6 different key action weights" to your order

if this is available at $500 or less it will be very attractive. let's hope it's both high-quality and attainable :!:

okay, i'll bite. MIDI-OX is used to store preset memory in .ini or .txt files; it doesn't do anything with .MID. To actually play the Pulse using a .MID file you would need to use a sequencer program, many of which are free. Just about all audio interfaces come with a 'lite' version of Cubase, Sonar...

Re: Minimoog, Voyager or Little Phatty ?

Having never owned or played a Minimoog is it huge in the bottom end more so than the Voyager and LP? I doubt the bass difference in a decent studio will amount to much of anything with all the tools available today for EQ and such. Often times you have to "cut" the old Mini and scale it back in a ...

What I used to do alot is use Cool Edit and do alot of FX to a section of the track, then fade it in, then copy it, then undo it all back to normal, then fade the normal part out, then Mix paste in the other part; so you have a great fade to an effect! Then you can always do the same process after ...

What if I want to turn the Cutoff knob hitting 12 O'clock, 9 O'clock, 7 O'clock (etc.) exactly in time with the beat of the song? Can't do that if it takes two whole turns of the knob to go from 0 to 100%. a workaround would be to use the sequencer, synced to MIDI. you'd have to program in advance,...

just about any polysynth will make the sounds in the 1st video for funky sounds, in general, goosing the filter's EG amount on any synth will get you part way there. it helps to have snappy EGs and of course a squirty/juicy filter. also route the lfo->osc pitch and control it with the modwheel for v...
