Roygbiv Bass for MicroKorg (Boards of Canada Tutorial)
As a quarantine special, here's a tutorial for how I made the iconic bass sound from my cover of Boards of Canada's "Roygbiv." Hint: it's an easy retro-inspired bass sound with a lot of character and grit. So easy, in fact, that you should be able to recreate this bass on any digital, analog, hardware, or software synth. But I've taken the time to explain it in full (nearly 20 minutes worth of content), because it's a REALLY interesting sound. This bass sound is perfect for artists working in synthwave, IDM, ambient, downtempo, and other chilled and retro-inspired genres. Please leave a comment below if you've used this sound in your music!

Roygbiv Synth Lead for Microkorg (Boards of Canada Tutorial)
Просмотров 11 тыс.6 лет назад
Here's the long-awaited tutorial for the lead synth in my cover of Boards of Canada's IDM classic, "Roygbiv." Though this iconic synth lead was created on a MicroKorg, similar principles should apply to any subtractive or virtual analog synth. It's not a perfect copy of the original lead. But it's a warm vintage sound you can use in your own songs! Follow along (as best as you can)! Free patch ...
How I Used the MicroKorg for Ambient Pads
Просмотров 22 тыс.6 лет назад
Well, I spoiled it already. I was asked numerous times the last few months to show a particular pad patch from my MicroKorg. But as luck would have it, it turned out to be a factory preset. So I decided to show not one, but TWO patches for ambient pads. I also discuss why it's ok to use factory patches in music, and how I used them creatively. Enjoy!

Here is a quick and happy musical sequence, mutated through different waveforms and modulations on the Minilogue, a...

Is the MicroKorg Terrible? (Synth Vlog)

Is the MicroKorg a terrible synth? Are the minikeys too tiny and toy-like?

MicroKorg, iPhone & 909 (or Why I Won't Buy the New iPhone)

What happens when you combine a MicroKorg, an iPhone, and Roland TR-909 drum machine sounds? You get a heavy acid techno jam and a very angry Apple customer who wants the headphone jack back on the new iPhone 8 and iPhone X. Otherwise, this guy won't buy one. P.S. This is just a joke/roast of the new iPhones. In all seriousness, as much as I hate that Apple won't put back the headphone jacks, t...
How to Make Modern EDM Bass on MicroKorg (TUTORIAL)

In this MicroKorg tutorial, I reveal one of my top-secret custom bass patches, and how you can make it. It has a great metallic and distorted sound that fits well in modern EDM genres like dubstep, bass house, riddim, and other trending dance tunes in 2017. The bass sounds you can achieve with Massive and Serum are great, but you simply haven't heard what the tiny yet powerful MicroKorg can do....

    I applaud your use of the flanger as a chorus. I used to use that at very low recycle frequency for the destructive interference for my guitar with my old Ross flanger, before it somehow cooked itself. I've never yet seen another hardware flanger that can go that low in the recycle rate, but if the micro-korg can then that's really cool. The best I've achieved is using U-he Colour Copy. Funny thing is that after I set the knobs right to get that shimmer for the low notes of an E chord, I could then play anywhere on the neck, and it sounded amazing!

    I recently bought a microkorg s from a friend a couple of weeks ago. Last night I went through the first six soundbanks (I didn't bother with the sound effects and vocoder soundbanks). I wanted to figure out which sounds I wanted to keep and which can be replaced with patches. Out of 144 sounds, I only like or can tolerate 67 of them. So that is 77 sounds that sound really crap to me.

    I know ROYGBIV is an insanely simple song but it appeals to me in a way most songs just don’t. That thing BoC was striving for, the feeing of being a child, is somehow captured in that track. Easily a top 5 track of mine, all time.
