Oakley and MacBeth Duet

Inspired by the 2008 USA election Modularland presents a performance of Oakley Modular and the MacBeth M5N. Modularland is a democracy- we do not care if you are Synthesizers.com black, Future Retro white, Oakley blue, Scottish Macbeth, American Blacet, Canadian Modcan, Japanese Roland, digital and sampled like the Miniwave, or thermionic and Chino like the Manley. We wouldn't even have hard feelings if Manley moved to Pomona. Everyone has an equal vote in the final sound.

This track is aleatoric, features no MIDI, and is driven by noise quantized and gated by the Modcan Dual Quantizer 55B synched by Modcan clock 55B driving the Blacet Hex Zone which sequences the MacBeth M5N.

The Oakley VCO is filtered by a Cynthia Synthacon filter to give that nice smooth percussive hit. All audio is run through the Manley Dual Mono Tube Direct Interface into an Alesis IO|26 A/D with some light EQ and reverb added in Cubase. No audio edits of any kind.

Nice sounds, that's a fine collection of Modcan modules you have.

Cool stuff! How do you decide whether you want a modcan module in A or B?

[modularland]

Its an algorithm combining module availability, patch cord length, and capacitance.

Those are Weird Blinking Lights. Stay tuned for a new video this week.

This is great. Can't stop watching it. Such a strangely attractive mix of melancholy and cheerfulness.

What are those lights at the beginning and the end?
