This sound from the DSI Prophet 08 reminds me of computer room sound effects from ’60s scifi flicks.

Prophet 08 Hard Panned Stereo Pad
Here’s another sound from the DSI Prophet 08 recorded during random patch browsing. I’d describe it as a hard panned stereo pad.

DSI Prophet 08 Presets
One of the things I’ve been doing with the Prophet 08 that I’m borrowing is playing through the presets. This is something I generally don’t like to do, but it’s a good way to get a feel of what an instrument is capable of. Many of the factory patches in professional synthesizers are exhibition sounds, programed to demonstrate the features of the instrument. Tonight I decided to record the process of playing through some of these presets for the purpose of sharing them here. Here’s one to start with.

I found a nice little description of our trio DGK on the Red Stag event calendar: “DGK is a Minneapolis supergroup of sorts, comprised of bassist/clarinetist Jon Davis (Ghostband, Haunted House, Black Audience), drummer Tim Glenn (Heatdeath, ex-Fog, ex-Poor Line Condition) and keyboardist John Keston (Ostracon, Ostraka, Keston and Westdal). Blending elements of jazz, funk, afrobeat, krautrock and post-punk with a dancefloor sensibility, the trio builds sprawling improvisations atop a foundation of rock solid groove.” Here is the second set from our performance on February 19, 2011 at the Reg Stag. I previously posted the first set in the article Music Technology Soul Searching and will post the third set in an upcoming article. One Synthesizer Sound Everyday listeners, be prepared for healthy portions of Rhodes and Pro-One through Memory Man delay. (Photo by Chris LeBlanc)
