Re: help me find a drum synthesizer

know your tired of me saying this, but it's ashame your using battery and not maschine. maschine could pull that off easily, and you'd still be able to play it live like a drum machine. when it comes to laying down a track in a daw, just click and drag. i wonder if you could do something like that ...

Re: Why has no one made a midi controllable analog drum unit

lol - interesting article. if you own a synth with drifty VCOs, you can have them all at once!

Re: Can someone explain how a VCO generates a signal

Reference A. Tsk tsk 440 x a second I think is middle C ? [edit] A forgive me if i'm being too cheeky, but i'm like 98% sure the mathematical A vibrates at 432 cycles per second as opposed to 440(due possibly to it's mathematical relationship to 12, 12 semitones, etc), and was originally used until...

What's that?
like work together on a song. you could do some nice pads and stuff with the fizmo, get some samplers grooving and show off some playing ability, and i could handle the drums and bass with my acid synths.

Re: making the hi hats interesting

sounds inspiring ;) i've been working on a concept album based entirely on tea lately, and used teapot percussion sounds and loose leaf tea in a metal tin along with other tea related sounds that i sampled with that zoom thing as hat/rim/tom/click style percussion. the loose tea sounds like a maraca...

Re: making the hi hats interesting

I have grown to hate hi hats... They're always mixed to high, even in most everything I have done. Pretty much how I feel about them too. Still love kicks and snares though. you could alwayse replace the hats with clicks or beeps. i like steam noises & other high pitched clicky found sounds. what h...

Re: I made some modular noise

i really like the frothy liquid noise at 1:00! that's my favorite thing to do with the odyssey, and probably my favorite analog synth sound to date in all of it's subtle permutations. i can listen to that sound for longer than i'd like to admit... :lol: :?
