ARP 2600 pt2 : classic Lead & Bass

> synths — gaza @ 6:57 pm

Recorded through Allen&Heath ZED R16’s A/D converters with no EQ or processing.
I recently had recapped and modified my early 70’s Tonus-logo ARP 2600 synthesizer. Everything works great now, plus my tech added extended FM and keyboard/LFO functions - even better than new! You can achieve these sounds using a stock 2600 as well, but mine has a few paths re-routed for convenience, also a rebuilt key-assembly, filter and PSU, an extra LFO etc.

Chill Out by Gazdatronik, Looker

> synths — gaza @ 7:32 am

Somebody broke into my car and stole all my shit two days ago. But I have here a piece I did showcasing what the Emulator 6400 and some old mellotron samples can do with a litte expression. I do love that choir.

The fight scene in Looker went well enough with it. Its a good movie, Michael Crichton’s finest work, in my opinion.
