scorbie - Over Hang 2 - 1 (modular synth)


Published on Jun 23, 2014 scorbie·49 videos

"Experimenting with my latest Frequency Central & Steffensen modules.

Hard at work are:
Frequency Central's
Loop/Env Generator, Trans Europa and S/H Noise
modules irritating The Maths as it tries to be cool.
FC's Continuum Phase Shifter is getting rattled by the other
bits in it's range.
The Frequency Central SystemX Oscillator provides arpeggiated
bass duties going through the FC Raging Bull, not forgetting the
FC range of mental LFOs Waverunner and Ultrawave also
confusing matters, and really pissing off the Doepfer Xtreme filter.

It's also worth mentioning the main VCOs at the heart of this
mayhem are a pair of Steffensen Oscillarps, having their FMs and PWMs insulted by FC, along with it's ADSR
companion The Envelarp.
They are all being pumped through the new god of all VCAs, the mighty Arplifier.
A new module based on the ARP2600 VCA.

Somewhere in there a Synthrotek EKO is trying hard to justify
being in such good company, and the Doepfer A-147 LFO is making something move a bit.

Coming soon: Doepfer Wave Multiplier and Spring Reverb!

This is self indulgent shite. Only I will enjoy watching this. :) xx"

scorbie- cigarettes, alcohol & modulating


Published on Jun 17, 2014 scorbie·48 videos

"The first track from my new album, due for a festive Christmas release 'Cigarettes, Alcohol & Modulating', focusing on my mid life crisis obsession with modular synthesis.
You won't like it, but I will.

Enjoy the madness of Frequency Central modulation and filtering with the absolute power of Sweden's Steffensen ARP2600 Eurorack series of modules.

Synth rock is dead...

Build a Modular Synth in seven months!


Published on Apr 7, 2014 scorbie·46 videos

"After seeing the modular documentary I Dream Of Wires, I decided back in September of 2013 I wanted to get one.
After months of obsessing and invaluable help from a few friends and people in the modular underworld, my first case is just about complete.
Even building my own now!

Rick Holt of Frequency Central & Rickard Steffensen from Sweden have been incredibly patient and supportive and I will forever be grateful.
Made a couple really good friends.

Visit frequencycentral.co.uk and look up Steffensen on Muffwiggler.com.
Small manufacturers who's modules are better than most of the well known makes out there.

In the case:

Frequency Central: System X VCO, Waverider DVCO, Electro Cardiogram Filter, Vogue Filter, Multipoles, Waverunner LFO, Continuum Phase Shifter, Trans Europa, Raging Bull* & System X S&H/Noise* (* DIY build soon).

Steffensen: Oscillarp (X2) and Envelarp ADSR (based on ARP2600).

Doepfer: A140 ADSR, A180 Multiples, A147 VCLFO, A106 Xtreme Filter, A138 Mixer.

Oakley Classic VCA, Tiptop Z3000, Make Noise Maths, Pittsburg MIDI2 and a few more bits to build including 4 ARP Odyssey VCOs and an ARP2600 12db LPF.

I've DIY'd all of the Frequency Central and Steffensen modules in the case. About two rows worth.
Didn't know how to solder seven months ago, let alone understand a schematic or what a resistor was. :)

Midlife crisis. Yep. And it f*cking rules!"
