i swear that the clap in Peacock Tail is one of the claps from the Machinedrum SPS-1 anyone else reckon they've spotted a digital synth in one of their tracks? :) |
||||||||

|
|
yes, tons |

OMG OMG OMGç1!1!1!!1!1! they used digital synths!!!!!!!!11!1!1!1! |

It's a disgrace. A travesty! I'm never listening to another boc record for as long as, well, maybe a few minutes. |

there's absolutely nothing wrong with BoC using digital synths, i'm sure that some of their textures most likely involve some FM synthesis or some other digital method. it's just that Peacock Tail is the first time i've been able to pinpoint a particular sound to a piece of equipment, since i own it |

Ne-Yo used the snare/clap/snap sound from FL Studio in his chart-topping songs. It's probbly one of the WORST sounds ever, and it disgusts me greatly. |

good god.. |

i know they use them all the time but i'd rather they didn't to be honest. it doesn't really fit with their whole retro image. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
haha I couldnt agree more |
||||||||
|

do you own a machinedrum sps-1? what hand clap are we talking about... under the kit and the engine |

I heard a fart in Nlogax once |
||||||||
|

But... is it slightly less bad if they're hardware digital synths instead of VSTis? Yes. I KNOW THAT TAXIDERMIST WILL AGREE WITH ME ON THIS POINT |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i've had one for the past year. i can't remember the exact machine, as all my equipment has been carted off to my fathers in Birmingham due to my homelessness which i am now thankfully out of at the moment, but have no room for equipment yet :( i miss my 909 :( |
||||||||
|

but i am picking up my 808 on wednesday, so that kinda makes up for it |

lucky fucker. |

I never thought they werent using digital synths the whole time |
||||||||
|

Quoth don't get me wrong, i fucking LOVE the SPS-1...i wanna get it UserWave upgraded, but i see they're out of stock. hopefully by the time i can afford an upgrade they will be available again. and yes, i can't wait to get my hands on the 808. i have to travel to Stoke-on-Trent to pick it up though, but well worth it. cosmetically excellent and it's been MIDI-fied :D |

When I'm listening to Boards of Canada I'm not thinking about what equipment they're using. At all. Guaranteed. It's the same for any music really. Except ones from the 80s that use the "orch hit" and then I'm only thinking that I wish I wasn't listening to it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what about the samplers they use then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Aparently they used a computer to do some of geogaddi. I wouldn't be suprised if they used one or two digital synths, but I know most of thier stuff is analogue. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who cares if they use digital synths ill never understand the whole analogue purity shit ive own my fair share of both and theyre both good for particular reasons i hope their next cd has some speed injection and more digital synth |

Dude, its just a discussion. |

their music sounds like it is emminating from a natural spring in the mountain wherin lives a mollusk who doth play upon an enchanted reed of spring quenched grass as the sun sets behind a great stone cliff, casting it's shadow upon a glacier stained red by the whimsical algae that dwell in it's icy embrace. FACT. |

i predict you will be disappointed. |

hahaha! Taxi i wasnt angry toward the topic but i just dont understand why everyone rags on digital and analogue is so praised when they both are awesome thats all the irritation was toward |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, me too, but I didn't see anybody ragging on either in this discussion. What synths do you own/use? I want to start a gear discussion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

let's talk about our gears. |

Well, they've used NI stuff so it's not just hardware digital. They've also mentioned that they use a computer for sequencing sometimes. I also agree with Oscillik about the fm sounds. I remember someone posted something like, "if I find out it's 2 blokes in a bedsit in Essex making the music on a laptop, I'll be gutted". Funny how people consider it important to the "image" of BoC what gear they use (rather than just, like other artists, discussing it "out of interest") |

i heard all their synths are made of people... mexican people |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
HA! best. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only human synth ive seen them use is the one where each finger slips into a forskin midi controller |
||||||||
|
|

It's important to imagine where they work as well - in a shed made of driftwood, dried moss and castoff blue and orange bubble-windows from weird 70s architecture. They can't just work in a regular studio. It's not right! |
