Wolfenstein 3D: Level 10 (secret level) Wolfenstein 3D: Level 10 (secret level)
Posted by: synthead

Video duration: 587 seconds

This video shows me kicking level 10's ass, revealing all the enemies, treasures, and secret rooms. It's a really errie secret level you can get to from the elevator room in level one.
Listen to those sounds! I absolutely love the way this game uses lo-fi samples and synthesized sound effects. The music is very good too. But then again, who didn't like Wolfenstein 3D?

I'm a little tired and the audio falls out of sync after a while, sorry. Using PMix (available from the Android Market) to control my computer's MPD server. Pretty fun.

It's a five-pin lock with four ribbed pins and one I-pin. Very impressive, and it was only about $16 at the locksmith store. In this video, I take it apart and put it back together on camera.

Jam yo face Jam yo face
Posted by: synthead

Video duration: 340 seconds

Made a song using nothing but hardware. On the arp: Juno-106, on the bass: SCI Pro-One, Lexicon Alex processor for the reverb effect over an Alesis 3630 compressor, using an MC-505 on drums. A Yamaha and Behringer mixer helped me mix it down, and an M-Audio transit was used to record. No automation was recorded, every sweep and tweak was performed live. My ears hurt.

Proof Clearwire is alright, after a three-month period of dialup speeds. Yeah, it was my router, believe it or not.
This is a video that can hopefully help the guys at clearwiresucks.com.

Posted by: synthead

Video duration: 162 seconds

Just having some fun. I recorded and sequenced MIDI data with the Juno using FL Studio 6. I used to be able to clumsily play the bassline and the vocoder solo at the same time a little while back but my fingers forgot how to do it :D

How easy is it to install packages with Arch Linux? How easy is it to install packages with Arch Linux?
Posted by: synthead

Video duration: 25 seconds

Simply run: pacman -S whateveryouwant! In this video, I install acidrip, a DVD ripper.
I'm using yaourt, a sophisticated wrapper for pacman, but the commands are the same.
For all you Linux vs Windows nerds, compare how long it takes to google up your software and install it with a wizard, clicking next a redundant 12 times ... to this!

Neat tune with technical MIDI routing Neat tune with technical MIDI routing
Posted by: synthead

Video duration: 75 seconds

Something I improvised while on camera.
Along with physically playing the synth, I am controlling a transposed MIDI Out channel (FL Studio 6) via the Juno's MIDI out, routed to the MIDI in of the Juno. This allows me to have "virtual oscillators" in the way that one key can play a chord. Pretty fun.
