  • Part two of today's playtime, this time I left the light on so it's easier to see what I am up to. Hope you enjoy it, more sessions are planned. Take a look at my first session (Berlin School (Nursery)). Once again this one was all played live in one take. Listen closely and hear the MAQ 16/3 try to get the better of the Waldorf Pulse by adding a little bit of improvisation of its own!

    This is really good. Thanks for recording and posting.
    Trying to do some synthspotting here. Please correct anything that's wrong.
    Main bassline is Slim Phatty and the Pulse
    Your lead and intro is the An1X
    Sound effects from (I think) a Microbrute
    Korg Prophecy on top?.
    Not sure what's under the AN1X. Looks like maybe a Voyager?
    MKS-80 Super Jupiter rack. Not sure if that was used in this at all.

    • @LinkFMMik
      @LinkFMMik  Před 9 lety

      Well spotted Pete! The Prophecy was controlling a Roland M-VS1 module (for Mellotron choir and flute sounds). The An1X was also driving a Yamaha TX7 and the Roland JV1080 underneath the Microbrute. Just below the An1X is a Roland Juno 6 whose arpeggiator is being clocked by the MAQ16/3. Glad you like it, I hope to do more soon.

      Apologies for the late reply but I recorded this 9 years ago in my old place and needed to research a bit to see what I was using back then, so here goes: sequences - Waldorf Pulse and Moog Slim Phatty controlled by Doepfer MAQ16/3 sequencer. Arpeggiator - Roland Juno 6, Mellotron sounds from Roland M-VS1 Vintage synth controlled by Korg Prophecy, Yamaha An1x controlling Yamaha TX7 and Roland JV1080 for everything else. All put through Boss DE200 and Alesis Midiverb IV effects.

      Hi, this is my own improvised composition, influenced to some extent by mid-1970's Tangerine Dream. Hope you like it. Mike

      Do not quite understand. Have you been influenced by Tangerin or are you on them?
      Music - in the best traditions of the direction of the Berlin School of Electronic Music. But in my opinion there is not enough progressive like in the first two albums of Ash ra. Continue and please me if you can implement the proposed. Im from Ukraine.
