The Haunted Spaceship – or – How an Arp Axxe sounds with my modular synth for Halloween sounds.

via nathanielscott:

Any analogue synth with a noise generator and a semi-decent filter is great for making spaceship noises. The AXXE is no exception.

My friend Stephen has had an idea about doing a short sci-fi film about ghosts in space (no not Space Ghost). If he an I ever get the film made I hope it has campy sounds like this.

Test patch for the PAiA 9700s modular synth.

via shobley:

I made this movie as a reference for other 9700s builders.

It uses MIDI pitch, trigger and gate, OSC2 and modulation, the VCF (both filters ganged) and the envelope generator.

As far as I can tell, everything is working correctly, and the output sounds like this…

[The midi keyboard was shifted down to octave -4.]

Check out my blog for the color coded image file of this test patch.
