Drum Patches with a 12U EMW Eurorack System


Drum Patches with a 12U EMW Eurorack System from Icaro Ferre on Vimeo.

"This video shows some examples of what can be done using some of the EMW trigger sequencers and drum modules.

The main clock for the two sequences (8-STEP TRIGGER SEQUENCER and 4-TRACKS TRIGGER SEQUENCER) comes from the BPM GENERATOR module. In order to reset these 3 modules, I'm using a BUTTON INTERFACE 1 module.
In these examples, I'm using 4 DIGI-DRUMs, 2 channels of the ANALOG BASSDRUM 4X, and a DIGITAL NOISE module (going through a VCF SP filter and a VCA 101). These 6 channels are then sub-mixed and routed into the 4 channels / inputs of the ANALOG SWITCH 4X, which lets me turn them on/off using the 4 switches.

In my opinion, the 4-TRACKS TRIGGER SEQUENCER is great for sequencing basic drum elements such as kicks and snares while the 8-STEP TRIGGER SEQUENCER is great for sequencing percussive elements since it allows for more experimentation due to it's different modes (Forward, Backwards, Ping-Pong, Random etc) and patterns.

I really enjoyed this setup because it not only lets me create drum loops in specific BPMs but it also turned out to be super flexible due to the many different samples available in the DIGI-DRUM modules and modes / patterns available in the 8-STEP TRIGGER SEQUENCER.
