I’ve had my MC202 for a long while – along with the Sh101 its one of the first synths I bought back in the late 1990’s. I’ve always enjoyed sequencing it but using it live meant writing patterns on the fly or using tape load to load new patterns. For a while now I’ve been […]
This is a quick tip if you are short on screen real estate and what to preview what your external gear is sounding like in one channel. Using one audio channel and an effects rack you can chain a whole bunch of external hardware effects into one rack and preview all your synths in one […]
I was messing around with using really short delays to produce metallic sounds. I was then informed this is called Karplus Strong synthesis. I created a abelton effects rack to control the effect and some other associated effects. The audio signal goes into a gate – you’ll have to adjust the threshold to suit your […]
Got this from Jerome Hill – too good not to share and might get you out of a tight spot. Basically if ableton live crashes it creates a temporary project file in your library. The issue with OSX is your library is now hidden. So here’s the tip & hope it helps you if you’re […]
I recently received a Bitchin’ Sync box made by Bryan Benting. This is a great little din sync clock box. Basically it takes clock pulse or din sync and split it to the other din sync ports. It has 6 din sync sockets which is the same number of din sync clock driven gear that […]
I was going over some old files and found this tip about sequencing the roland sh101, so using this trick I sequenced in a little pattern and using the tr606 to play it here is a little live track, just the roland sh101 and tr606, distortion from the boss OS-2 and a little phaser in […]
another find from the internet archive The 202 is one of my favourite instruments too.. bang for buck and size…if only someone could figure a way to hack it to be more of a multi-pattern based sequencer… Anyways, here’s a contribution…. Some people go nuts for the 303’s slide, I’ve heared that its a fixed […]
