Today is a gift - LYRA-8 ambient
Today is a gift -- Lyra-8 Ambient
Denver Colorado - freezing cold (high of 2F today), but life is good - big halogen space heater, Lyra-8, and a SurfyBear spring reverb. Also used a Boss DD-6 Digital Delay.

Patch experimentation with the Korg MS-20 Mini. No sequencer. All of the patches are looping/self-triggered - either by TRIG IN to EG2 REV OUT, or white noise to TRIG IN There is a little spring reverb added to some of the patches. Cheaper than a therapist. Enjoy!

Drone patches for the Korg Monologue
Переглядів 8 тис.4 роки тому
The Korg Monologue can make some great edgy leads and thick bass lines, but it can also make some warm drone sounds as well. Here are 30 free drone patches for the Korg Monologue. You will need to load the patch file using the Monologue Sound Librarian. Effects used in the video: Fathom reverb & DD-6 digital delay (stereo).

Circuit bending the Digitech RDS 7.6 delay time machine
Переглядів 1,7 тис.6 років тому
Some tips for circuit bending the Digitech RDS 7.6 digital delay time machine. This one is from 1987. There's a lot more bending points on these old vintage delays than what is shown in the video but these are some basics to get started.
Fix for Peavey TNT-150 hum problem
Переглядів 11 тис.7 років тому
Picked up an old school Peavey TNT-150 bass amp on Craigslist for $100 (with Black Widow speaker). Amp is in great shape, built like a tank, LOUD, and 100% functional except for this hum problem. It was a fairly easy fix.
Expand the "LO-FI" capabilities of the Digitech RDS-1900
Переглядів 3 тис.10 років тому
Here's a mod I did on a Digitech RDS-1900 digital delay. Replacing the 5k trim pot for the master clock VCO with a front panel mount 10k linear pot. This basically gives you full manual control over the sample rate clock on this vintage 8-bit delay providing the capability to sample at longer delay times (2-35sec) but, of course, the fidelity suffers greatly - bandwidth is half the sample rate....
Digitech RDS 7.6 delay with DIY dual repeat/hold footswitch
Переглядів 3,1 тис.12 років тому
Here's a DIY dual footswitch for controlling the repeat hold function on a Digitech RDS 7.6 delay. I think it would work for any delay that has an external jack for the repeat/hold function. One of the switches is an SPDT (on/on) and the other is an SPST momentary switch. I used a small metal box that used to be an Ethernet transceiver so the box has a few extra holes in it. The switches are re...

Just finished building an 8-step baby analog sequencer and I'm testing it out with the pitch (CV) and gate inputs on the KORG Monotron Delay synth. I used the schematic at www.dinsync.info/2010/05/diy-8-step-sequencer.html. I'm using a 555 to provide the clock. I don't have the step skip switches connected yet but it's a fun little machine so far. Was pretty easy to build. Most of the parts I a...

    • @droneopt
      @droneopt 2 роки тому

      yes, the unit has dedicated CV pitch inputs for each oscillator (and one for the filter). Using the KBD CV output of my MS-20, I can play the oscillators on the LD-2 using the keyboard of the MS-20. The only limitation is that the oscillators are fixed (somewhat) sawtooth waveforms. And of course the filter will self oscillate making a very nice sounding sine wave generator.

    • @droneopt
      @droneopt Рік тому

      @@sillyworm Yeah the 4LFO is a strange feature, especially when all the LFO rates are set to almost the same rate and you hear them crashing into each other creating random pitch modulations because there is no sync between them. Tetsuji Masuda definitely has some crazy and original ideas to keep things from getting boring. I was actually thinking about modifying mine and replacing the pots for the 4 LFOs with push(on)/pull(off) pots so I can toggle each of the 4 LFOs on & off to get even more interesting modulations. I also felt that the low range of the main LFO speed was not slow enough for my tastes so I modded it by soldering a larger 4uF capacitor in parallel across the factory 1uF cap for the speed switch low range position. This helped to slow down the LFO to about 10 seconds which seems perfect for creating more slower evolving filter sweeps.

      hmm, I had a Peavey Basic 50 that had a similar problem. Amp would power on and the DDT LED would be faintly lit, but after it was on for a few minutes the comp LED would get brighter and the output volume would get very low. Problem turned out to be a bad capacitor in the preamp stage (after the EQ). You may have to download a schematic and test all of them. Also check the DDT comp IC. Most likely its a 4558 op-amp chip.
