Yeah, the Raven is all over Oxygene 7 - Bassline and Choirs in part 1 and a few other little sound effects and drum hits throughout parts 2 and 3 also. One sound, which is rather subtle is used also in Miss Moon!

Thanks, glad you like the videos. The ProLight laser harp really is so easy to set-up and use. It's a fantastic bit of kit - and the best thing is you can use any ILDA laser, with a frame or unframed - and incorporate it into your performance anyway you like.

Hi,

I have a laser harp you talk about - Plug and play - Please see my YouTube videos here - Some JMJ covers, and a few demo videos of how it all works.

That's a lovely track - I really like it. Delicate and melodic, but modern at the same time. If you make this available for download, let me know as I'd like to have this piece :)

The visuals and the description clearly aim this at a childs market, but take that away and it's a great track on it's ...

Ladies and Gents,

I'd like to share with you my debut album, Behind The Clock. I'm sure you'll hear a few Jarre sounds and influences in there.

I'd like to know what you think, and I really hope you like it.

In respect of equipment ...

Also uploaded a little sampler video too...

Ladies and Gents,

I've uploaded a short sampler of my forthcoming album, if you'd like to take a listen and see if it tickles your audio tastebuds?

Plenty of synths, bleeps and bloops...see what you think.

Would love to hear your ...

Also, do bear in mind that JMJ made a collection of sounds for Omnisphere as part of the Bob Moog tribute pack. They're not sounds currently heard on any JMJ recordings, they're all new, but there are a few Synthi AKS bleeps and bloops - you can hear them here in my Laser Harp video...

No, I'm afraid that it's not...well, not that I've found anyway!

Distorted Reality and Distorted Reality 2 are not part of Omnisphere. However, some of the loops from them and Metamorphosis are included into Stylus RMX as part of the RMX expansion pack.

The same is true of Bizarre Guitar, if you ...

I should have been more clear, the Bizarre Guitar sounds are from the Spectrasonics library named 'Bizarre Guitar'. JMJ used this library on Metamorphoses and Aero.

I created these sounds on the Moog Little Phatty and I think they're what you're after?

Forgot to mention, delay is also applied to the sound, and JMJ has a trick of assigning the dry signal to the left and the delayed signal to the right hand channels.

Delay effects are available everywhere, some VA synths have them built in. The Boss DD3 is a great delay pedal if you want to ...

I think you can say with almost certainty that its a VCS3/Synthi A - based only on the synths that JMJ had at the time. The effect is an LFO (on VCS3 this will be OSC 3) modulating either one or both of the other oscillators, most likely set to sawtooth waveforms. The get the effect the LFO speed ...

Hello All,

This is a short video sample of my Rendez Vous 3 cover. It's only a sample for now, full version to come soon, with yes, a real laser harp!



Let me know what you think.

Hi, I'm a lighting designer so have a pretty good knowledge of the lighting and special effects equipment that JMJ uses. What do you want to know about?

For the current tour, the stage is lit with a number of Varilite fixtures. The colour changers along the back, backlighting the band are the new ...
