Tangerine Dream Inspired Synth Improvisation

Sunday Synth Jam: This video, via Vykaar Tones, captures a Tangerine Dream inspired synth improvisation, RubyJam.

Here’s what he has to say about the technical details:

Improvised Tangerine Dream style piece, using the excellent Doepfer Dark Time sequencer to try and emulate the Moog sequencer techniques used in the 1970s.

The bass sequence is the Dark time controlling Doepfer A-111-VCO2 square wave being pulse width modulated by a slow triangle wave LFO from a Frequency Central Waverunner and going through a Frequency Central Raging Bull (Taurus) VCF/VCA module. The output of that goes through the Roland Demora Delay and Bitrazer when the crazy vocals start (MTM Radio Music sample player).

The Drone is three Doepfer A-110 VCOs, two sawtooth and one pulse width modulated squarewave going through a Wiard Boogie Filter which is swept by a slow triangle wave from a Doepfer A-143-3 quad LFO which in turn goes through a Doepfer A-134 panning module controlled by another slow triangle wave.

Other instruments are ARP odyssey, Korg MS20, SH101, Jasper wasp clone, Roland V-Synth, Korg Triton Extreme and Roland CR8000) drums. Eventide SPACE reverb and Timefactor delays.
