Sequential Pro 3 first sounds - Carlo Mezzanotte

Edit: Part 2 is now out, with more complex synthesis and sounds. Here:
• Sequential Pro 3 Part ...
Close encounters of the synth kind: A few patches on the Sequential Circuits Pro 3, a great analog/hybrid monosynth with three oscillators (2 VCOs and a wavetable), three analog filters and a ton of other features.
Much more can be done with this powerful and versatile instrument; in the limited time had so far, I mostly limited myself to dynamic, playable analog sounds.
No external effects were employed. Also no eq, compression or anything else. What you hear is the straight output from the Pro 3.

Incontri ravvicinati di tipo sintetico: Qualche suono dal Sequential Circuits Pro 3, un eccellente analogico/ibrido con 3 oscillatori (2 VCO e uno a wavetable), tre filtri analogici e una montagna di modulazioni complesse.
Si può fare molto di più con questo strumento potente e versatile; qui, nel poco tempo a disposizione, mi sono limitato a classici suoni analogici, dinamici e ben suonabili.
Nessun effetto esterno, equalizzazione o compressione è stato impiegato. Quello che sentite è l'uscita diretta del Pro 3.

Probably the only video on CZcams where someone actually plays the damn keyboard instead of just making noises and turning knobs! Awesome demo/sounds man and cheers for tarkus! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Can’t wait for my PRO3 to arrive!

[@carlomezz]

Thank you! You can also check my other Pro 3 video, which in my view includes more mature sound design:

Pro 3 is an absolute lead-Monster

[@downpatmusic]

That synth sounds great and I think may be one of the best sounding synths out. It covers a lot of sonic ground. Sure its mono. Perhaps Sequential will come out with a polyphonic version of this Pro3. I would by the poly version in a heartbeat as I think the Pro 3 is easy to program and sounds great. A well rounded synth. I believe a poly version of the Pro3 could compete with the Moog One as long as it hit the under $3,500 price point for say 8 voices.

[@carlomezz]

Yes, absolutely. I'd even say that in some aspects, it would be even more versatile than the Moog One. Maybe with a few improvements, like the ability to use two filters at once, in series or parallel.

[@kurtyhearty]

That would’we been the only poly synth you would ever need!!👍

[@TheKayoO0]

really loved these patches. a lot of videos focus on the gritty nasty sounds this thing makes. but you had lots of nice smooth sounds!!

[@carlomezz]

Thanks a lot! I tried to focus on organic, playable sounds. In the second video, though, threre are some more dark/complex patches.

[@CreativeSpiral]

Nice sound designs and playing!

[@carlomezz]

Thank you! I hope to follow with some more complex synthesis soon. Your sounds are good too!

[@OlavSFlaa]

Great demo and great playing! And very very nice to finally watch a video of the Pro 3 without any never ending sequences! I have ordered this synth and hope it will arrive next week :-)

[@carlomezz]

Thank you - yes, I tried to concentrate on playable sounds. In my view, sequencers and "paraphony" can be fun and interesting (I have included a couple of paraphonic patches), but not as much as pure sound design, finalized to expressive playing.

[@JonMurray]

Really nice work man 👌🏻 the patch and progression from 1:36 was beautiful. I need this synth in my life haha! 😂

New subscriber ✌🏻

[@carlomezz]

@@JonMurray Thanks a lot. You might want to check the other one too:
czcams.com/video/C60jC2mMzIg/video.html
A third one is in the works as well

[@JonMurray]

@@carlomezz no worries! And I’ll go check it out right now! Look forward to number 3! 😊

[@qrdnk]

Nice content! Thanks!

[@tanner6871]

Great sounds. I could really make use of several of these. Please consider offering them for sale!

[@carlomezz]

I will... but I'd like to optimize the patches, buiding several others, etc. - and at the moment, I have millions other things. It will take a while.

[@sisterstate7216]

Sorcery...!!!

[@carlomezz]

Ha ha, not exactly... but thanks! : - )

[@Notechaser]

Gorgeous sounds: I’d buy’em if you build’em for sale.

[@carlomezz]

Thank you! After a long hiatus, I recently resume programming the Pro 3 a little bit. I would like to reach an entire bank's worth of sounds, organized and optimized, then offer them for sale or download. Fact is, I'm submerged by other commitments and deadlines, so it will take some time.

[@Saint_Grial]

Great sounds, do you sell patches?

[@carlomezz]

Thanks for your interest! At the moment, I am working on more sounds, using some more advanced synthesis techniques. Once I have assembled and organized a whole bank, I may offer it for sale or download.

[@marvinkmooneyoz]

really like this vid, great sounds and playing. I wasn’t watching your hands, wondering, how are you finding the feedback? Controllable, or does it too quickly get out of control?

[@carlomezz]

I find the Tuned Feedback being absolutely progressive and controllable via modulations, etc. Like any other saturation circuit, it gets nastier as you feed louder or more dissonant stuff to it, but it's not difficult to find the sweet spot. I find the Distortion parameter a bit less useful, but the Tuned Feedback is one of the best assets of the Pro 3.
