This one used a recycled riff from one of my songs from years ago. I wanted to try something simple with my #Martin DC Aura and a #mellow #analogsynth sound using a #minimoog clone (#BehringerPolyD).
A Behringer Poly D was used to create the helicopter sound. A Moog Mavis mounted in a NiftyKEYZ keyboard enclosure provided some melody and other effects.
A Behringer Poly D was used for creating the ominous drone and wind sound. A Moog Mavis mounted in a NiftyKEYZ keyboard / Eurorack enclosure provided the creature sounds.
This was composed on an Aeros Loop Studio, which I still struggle with from time-to-time. My only lament was that the synth tracks had a bit of rhythm guitar on the left channel, which I didn’t notice until I imported the audio files into my DAW. I’ve managed to prevent that in the past, but it got by me this time.
This is an original instrumental song I wrote and recorded way back in 2013. This version has a couple of added synth tracks (bass and an alternate lead). It features the Behringer Poly D (mini Moog clone) on the keyboard tracks. The guitar tracks feature my 2011 Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster.
A very chill piece, considering it has a Samba drum track. It features a Martin DC Aura on rhythm with a Moog Mavis analog synth providing an ethereal lead. A Rickenbacker 4003 provides the bass. Composed and recorded in one evening. Drums by BeatBuddy.
The title of this song comes from the fact that I used a tone on my Les Paul that was reminiscent of something between “American Woman” and “Outside Woman Blues.” Impromptu was added because, well, it isn’t a blues song and the leads were pretty much ad-lib.
A “feel good” instrumental with a driving bass line and several layers of Stratocaster, including a simulated vibraphone track. What’s not to like?
This was my attempt at a horror soundtrack, more or less. It features a Behringer Poly D on lead with a Moog Mavis / NifyKEYZ keyboard supplying the rhythm sequence while synced to the BeatBuddy pedal drum machine’s MIDI output.

This track features the Behringer Poly D analog synth sequencer clocked by a BeatBuddy via midi. The BeatBuddy and Behringer provided the rhythm. The lead was created using a Moog Mavis mounted in a NifyKEYZ Eurorack keyboard enclosure, which was also clocked by the BeatBuddy so the arpeggiator would also be in sync. It was all connected to a Behringer USB mixer and captured live in one performance (no multi-tracking or overdubs).
