#jamuary2025 – Scruffy
Digitakt and Hades. It's a fun combo, which I have used before. Nine days into Jamuary, and the inspiration is starting to dip a little bit. At the outset, I said I wouldn't post every day, so maybe it's time for a break soon. But not today.

#jamuary2025 - Slipping

Another day, another jam. Today, the LoFi-12 XT got the company of another Soniware box, the MEGA Synthesis.

This was fun. But I can’t say I am very good at naming or understanding genres, so please feel free to correct me in the comments. 😊 Valhalla VintageVerb has been added to the less intense parts of the track, in post.

A first attempt with the Sonicware LoFi-12 XT, using stock samples only-because I haven't yet learned how to load or record my own. But I have found the mute button! Next time, I might even try to use more than one pattern. :-) From what I can tell, this seems like a capable groove box, and it is super intuitive once you figure out its interface (which isn't hard to do).

A piano loop (stereo recording), saturation, phasing, tape delay, and reverb. All effects are digital emulations.
#jamuary2025 - Repetition at rest

Korg Monologue. I packed it away and didn't use it for a long time. But here it is again! :-) I have too many mono synths, and I am not sure I would rank the Monologue in my top three even. But there is something to its simplicity that makes me return to it again and again.

Happy New Year! ...which means that another #jamuary is upon us. I will not post every day this year, but I will try to participate whenever possible. True, the daily discipline is kind of the point of this challenge, but at the same time, if it is not fun, what is the point?

I have been traveling a lot lately, and the OP-Z is perfect for that. It is so much fun. You can throw together a simple beat like this in a few minutes. It is like having a little mini studio in your pocket. Obviously, the OP-XY is better, but I think it would be too big for me. I got the OP-1 field a while back (it was almost 40% off!), but it is both too big and too expensive to toss in my b...

Another jam with my favourite (musical technology) travel companion the TE OP-Z.

Another jam with the OP-Z. Maybe a bit repetitive, but hey, this is a one-take endeavor. Added a DALL·E generated image (prompt: "The memories of a stranger", of course) for some visual variation.

Confined to my cabin during an overnight voyage, I am throwing my own party. The confinement is self-imposed as I am super tired but not yet willing to go to bed. Hence, the moody "verse" that starts the track off, I suppose. But you can't be blue for long when your company is the OP-Z - Therefore, the pastiche "chorus." Also, isn't it amazing how one can make a track on the OP-Z, record video ...
#jamuary2024 - 31 - Farewell

I just barely managed to squeeze a jam in this last day of jamuary. Lousy playing but better this than nothing. Especially as it would have been a bit disapointing, falling at the finish line. Fitting, and not at all surprising, then, that when I am in a hurry I turn to the Roland JD-Xi. It always gives you something.

Nicely done! Not looked at the LoFi-12 ... until now!
Nice sounds! Interesting setup
sweet jam i like the vocal chop and keyboard solo doesnt sound video gamey even on the mega synth
loverly addictive hook! taaaa.
groovy jam! (I dig those old Ibanez pedals too)
Nice vibe
Love it. Thinking about getting one to pair with my sp 404 mk2!
Lovely jam! Entirely different workflow (and maybe sound?) compared to my MEGAfm on that Liven box.
I love the monologue - it seems simple, but has a lot of depth with motion sequencers and very generous ranges - the LFO speed range is huge. Things that might seem missing like Sample And Hold can be done with the sequencer... Which you've made great use of!
Nice! Sonicware might not be the most trendy (plastic boxes perhaps?) but there's a lot of interesting technology and really well designed...
Crazy workflows but really strong sounding boxes ... good job! 👍
Nice! Genres are hard, very helpful when looking for music, not great when publishing stuff.
good technos
I'm thinking 'bout how the sky is going out
It isn't you're naturally tapping it in the vibe
😶🌫️🤫🤡😶🤓❤
Don't die piano,you're too expensive &hm, precious for these Ideas...😐🙃🙂
better than delay 😎
very cool first attempt.
Happy Holidays 😄
Holiday spirit is right back, nice!
Good stuff. You have me immediately when it's danceable.🧡
My Monologue is still in its box since I moved, and it may stay in that box. There is a good synth in the Monologue, it is just buried under too many strange restrictions.
Just like harp, piano and distortion are a great match 😃
nice distortion
Wow so interesting sounds🎉. Good combination of prerecorded and live option🎉🎹
Sick beat 😆
I have no idea how to operate the grey-groove-bar, which makes this even more impressive to me.
groovy
Bravo! Happy New Year and Happy Jamuary Time!! 😄
🎆😁👍🏻
Lovely stuff 0 such a great little beast
beautiful
it´s so beautiful... so inspiring.. One of the best things I bought for creating new ideas
Thanks for sharing this beautiful musical moment.
This is really beautiful!!! This feels like it belongs at an emotional climax of a TV series. Keep it up!
Very nice, Madis-esque composition and performance. 💯
I love my jd xi. But those damn preset songs filling up banks A through D…. Ugh
Yep!
These presets contain many alternative sounds that are not available from the Category Wheel.
@Acrimonious_Snake Really? That’s interesting. I need to check that out.
@@pastfutures Yes. There are some interesting variations and a little bit of completely different sounds. Furthermore, all the new sounds, if you load any proprietary banks (including the banks from Roland Axial), are stored inside the patterns of the JD-Xi sequencer. The category wheel contains only a default set of sounds.
Nice sounds....I have jdxi..but don't play it as much as would like to....need to make time for it...great little keyboard. Well played. Thanks and look forward to more vids. subscribed. 👍
Thank you!
Catchy. Very good
Thank you!
It's a beautiful synth and sounds great 👍
It really is!
Nice! 👍
Thank you!
Maybe just run the "finished" track through a DBX510 to put subharmonics instead of a real bassline?
Towards the end, you either have a habit to make time for Jamuary, or rush it 😅
Lovely 80s feel! ❤
Thank you!
Thanks for another year of Jamuaries! It's been a blast I hope you have great year! 👋😄
You too! ...I say, somewhat belatedly. :-)
👍👍👏👏👏👏👏😁
nice groove and atmosphere 😄👍
Thank you!
sweet jam 😄I really like when Typhon takes solo ... you can feel the space. I feel like anytime I forget a part I am on the right track! 😄👍
:-) Thanks!
I really need to get me a proper sequencer. Nice jam! But yeah! I was waiting for the bassline haha. I thought the Typhon was going to come rolling in!
Next time! 😀
very nice
