Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 15: Introduction to Flipflop Memory


Published on Jan 30, 2016 Bimini Road

Get Audulus for: iOS | Mac | Windows/Linux

"This video is a primer on Flipflop Memory - flipflops are the smallest unit of memory possible - it's either a one or a zero. Each time a flipflop is pinged by the Midi button, it reverses its state (it flipflops!).

With this setup, you can change 8 different parameters on or off with just one button and one knob.

The fundamentals laid out here are necessary for understanding how to make the *very* complex sequencers and pseudo-computers that are possible within Audulus.

The 2 Minute Tip series breaks apart topics on Audulus into bite-sized chunks. I don't talk during the tutorials (though there are a few notes that pop up), and this is so that international viewers who don't understand English well don't feel left out. Familiarize yourself with the node menu and my navigation won't be so mystifying. In the future, we'll develop a finger press indicator so you can see where I'm tapping.

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 14: How to Use the Spline Node


Published on Jan 29, 2016 Bimini Road

Get Audulus for: iOS | Mac | Windows/Linux

"This is a simple demonstration of the basic functions of the Spline node. One of my favorite things to do with a Spline is to take its output, multiply it a little, and then run that output into a Quantizer module and then into a synthesizer (thanks user JDRaoul for coming up with this technique). It allows for quick, on-the-fly melody generation that really natural.

Double click to add or delete points on the spline.

Why is it called a spline? This is why: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_...

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 13: How make LFOs with the Phasor Node


Published on Jan 28, 2016 Bimini Road

Get Audulus for: iOS | Mac | Windows/Linux

"This video shows you how to harness the Phasor node and turn it into several different waveshapes. The Phasor runs from 0 to 2pi - without any math, it makes a Saw LFO that goes from 0 to about 6 - these equations tame it, however, and turn it into other shapes. I did not come up with these formulas myself - some came from Taylor and others from the forum.

These equations create DS LFOs between 0 and 1 (DS = direct signal, like DC or direct current). In general DS LFOs are more useful for manipulating knobs - if you keep all your knobs and modulation inputs accepting a range of 0-1 and then translate with math on the inside of the module when necessary, everything talks to everything else much more easily.

As for why the Phasor runs from 0 to 2pi (instead of just pi), refer to this enlightening Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_ci...

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 12: How to Turn a Timer into a Saw LFO


Published on Jan 27, 2016 Bimini Road

Get Audulus for: iOS | Mac | Windows/Linux

"This is a simple way to turn a timer into a Saw LFO for those who want to shave away every bit of CPU time they can (the Phasor LFO uses fractionally more CPU time). Unlike the Phasor LFO, however, you can see that it doesn't act predictably when you change the speed, and the speed control is not independent from the amplitude.

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 8: How to Make a Muxing Sequencer


Published on Jan 23, 2016 Bimini Road

Audulus for iOS | Audulus for Mac

"You don't just need a Sequencer node to make a sequencer. I actually prefer to make them this way - it's very easy to apply an LFO and change the directionality.

To use this sequencer to control an oscillator (instead of, say, a parameter of an effect), just send it through a Quantizer module.

...And why do I multiply it by 7.99 and not 8? Well, x8 wraps around back to 1, since the value range of 0-.999... is the first step, and 7-7.999... is the value range of the last step. If you set the max to just 7, it would only reach the final step for the duration of 1 sample.

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 4 - How to Make a Sub Synth with Modules


Published on Jan 19, 2016 Bimini Road

Audulus for iOS | Audulus for Mac

"This tutorial shows you how to set up a subtractive synthesizer in Audulus using the module library while navigating with the tag system. Subtractive synthesis begins with a harmonic-rich waveform (Square, Saw, or Triangle) and subtracts harmonics using a filter.

There are many ways to make a subtractive synth - adding more oscillators and detuning them slightly will give you a fatter sound. You can use Sine waves, but they don't respond as well to this method. Sine waves are best used in subtractive synthesis to bolster the low end, usually known as a sub oscillator. This sub oscillator will deepen the sound and make it more robust. However, for this tutorial, I just wanted to keep it as simple as possible. Towards the end, I added some LFOs to control the values of the steps of the step sequencer to make for a more interesting, semi-random sequence.

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 3: How to Make a Vibrato Effect


Published on Jan 18, 2016 Bimini Road

iTunes: Audulus 3 - Audulus LLC

"Vibrato is sometimes confused with tremolo thanks to Fender amps, which incorrectly label their tremolo circuits as vibrato. Vibrato and tremolo are easy to parse however: tremolo is volume (amplitude) modulation, while vibrato is pitch (frequency) modulation. When you wiggle your finger back and forth on a string on a violin, *that's* vibrato - what you are doing is shortening and lengthening the amount of vibrating string between your finger and the tailpiece (or saddle on a guitar).

Making a pitch-shifting vibrato effect that induces frequency changes in audio is a little more complex, so this just focuses on how to add vibrato to an oscillator, which is very easy.

Wondering how to begin designing effects in Audulus? You can't get more simple than a Tremolo.

A Tremolo effect (known to Fender enthusiasts as "Vibrato" but we'll get to that one later) is a modulated amplitude (i.e. volume) level. Electrically, this is usually done by driving a lamp or LED with an LFO circuit, while the audio path runs through a light-dependent resistor (LDR). The Light + LDR makes an Optocoupler. This isolates the LFO from the circuit and keeps your audio path super clean.

In Audulus, however, none of that is necessary. All you need to make a Tremolo is an LFO and a Level node. Apply the LFO's output to the Level node, run your audio in and out, and bam, you have a Tremolo!

This tutorial also shows you some beginning steps you can take to modify the LFO: adding to the signal increases the "floor," or how low the volume gets. Multiplying the signal (really, dividing, since we're multiplying by a number between 0-1), will expand or shrink its overall range.
