Unfiltered Audio is good stuff. So I wanted to F29 it, when I realised I didn't reveive my code last month. Or I totally missed it somehow. I submitted a ticket.

Thanks! That's very kind of you. It all just came together and during the sounddesign I thought..."hey this is beginning to sound like 90s trance...let's go!".

A bit late on the sunday, but I was away for the whole weekend to Dublin. So here it is, the latest jam. This time the sounddesign stage took me into the 90s trance era, so I went with it. Flashy visuals in the thumbnail, perhaps a bit slower tempo than what was customary at that time, but it's not an exact copy. Enjoy!

Thank you for the listen and the comment. I'm learning to utilize the stereofield more.

Well not yet, but I found a temporary solution. Haven't had the time to fix it. On the homefront it's a bit better luckily. Thanks for the comment.

A bit of a crossover between techno and trance. I decided to do the main melody line live so I could improvise a little. And by a little I mean everything. Luckily it came out well. Enjoy!

Stop hurting me! I just shelled out over €500 for a hardware reverb of which I'm pretty shure I could replicated it to a degree if I actually used 25% of my reverb and granular plugins.

I actually did use it! But not remembering in which project and on which sound says something...

I found myself living in Sweden there for a short while ?

Yes it was insane. My little town was 'world news' for a moment.

I found a workaround for the tech issues. I re-connected all the synths from the non-functioning pre-amp unit to one I barely use (I have 4 and mostly use 3). The issues are still the same but somehow this works. I can't use headphones, that signal is still overloaded with white noise (a sign of samplerate mismatch, so I contacted RME support). It is weird, because the incoming signal is ok but the outgoing not. Luckily my father got out of bed today (12 hours after surgery!) and walked a bit. This is such a crappy weekend. On top of everything there was a hostage situation (!!) 5 minutes from my house. Snipers, bombsquad, DSI (the guys who get called in by SWAT or even military units to 'handle things'), the whole nine yards.

That's a compliment I'll take any day.

A bit of a cheecky title. Here we go again. It's sunday! The synths in the break are a bit thin, but get back-up from the Matriarch. Vocals a bit too loud, but hey. Sadly, this could be my last jam for a while. I'm having technical issues which I can't solve at the moment. Nor do I have the time. Somehow I lost sync/lock on all my ADA8200's and I'm having trouble pinpointing the issue. I hope it's something silly but I can't figure it out yet. It seems like a samplerate thing but I haven't changed anything so it baffles me. Add to that that my father broke his hip this weekend so my attention is elsewehere and I'm away next weekend. So maybe I will record something with the units that do work. Anyway, enough personal stuff. Enjoy!

I think the Pianist bundle at the UJAM site is as low as it ever got, I could be mistaken though. I believe the lowest was 149 and it's 99 now.

Thank you so much! I love making these breaks. Synths are so awesome for that. This week I'm a bit strapped for time, BUT I did record a fun project some weeks ago which I might edit and put out. I might as well say it, I connected the MIDI out of the Roland J-6 (a little chord machine) to my Prophet 6 and recorded all kinds of progressions. Very fun project! Now I 'just 'have to edit 24 seperate audio and video files. And I have to record another jam midweeks somewhere this week or the next because I will be away for a weekend for a citytrip with my friends to Dublin.

I'm very happy with this one. The synths really shined in their 'optima forma'. Lots of sustained sounds which almost mimics low strings. The Prophet 6 is magical, and the Moogs are well, Moogs. The stuttering lead is a stack of leads from the Peak with a modulated (unsynced) tremolo.

Thanks! Yeah it got a bit out of hand, but now I'm pretty much done.

Hahaha I just got the ping from Youtube and thought he must be on a well deserved vacation or something ?

Upgrade price for me is €69 (nice). If that would be based on the (still?) free VCA, that's a pretty good deal. I'm tempted, it's another 2A and 1176, but the added features like drive could be interesting.

Purchased, I like their stuff (use it too little though) and I would like to have the collection complete, which is a stupid reason but still a reason.

Interesting, I will snatch this up.

Great find!

Agreed, I have the free VCA and would gain the Opto and FET. I have plenty of options for those including Universal Audio.

I guess so, I don't have those but all the rest and my upgrade price is also 199. A bit too much at the moment, seeing I just bought a Roland E-4 and some good kitchen knives.
