Synthesist Jean Luc Briançon, aka Kurtz Mindfields, shared this live performance, exploring the art of analog sequencing, using the NRsynth Ancestor and SynthR4 synthesizers.
Here’s what he shared about the technical details of the performance:
“I present to you a demo of synthesizers made by French luthiers, for whom I develop and explore musical possibilities. Whether they are Moog clones or modern analog instruments, the idea is to rediscover the possibilities of the old modular synthesizers, the sound, and the pleasure.
The Ancestor Moog NRsynth is extremely sensitive and features the original VCOs (3), filters (1 Moog + 1 Steiner Parker), VCAs, and mixers. It also has 2 LFOs + 1 noise generator.
The SynthR 4 is a semi-modular multi-tasker, equipped here with a Moog Ladder filter and the famous 4012 ARP (Moog clone). 3 LFOs + 2 noises… it also has 4 VCOs and 2 SUB VCOs.
The whole thing is controlled in real time through the powerful SynthR4 sequencing software.”
Developer Cem Olcay has introduced a new breakbeat drum app for iOS, BreakBud.
BreakBud lets you build and perform with beats using 16 pads, using 6 synthesized drum voices.

BreakBud is available now for $6.99 USD.
