Mangrove banger eurorack modular synthesizer patch/performance.

Published on Jan 29, 2016 Luke Killen

"Today i patched up a techno patch using the fantastic Mannequins Mangrove VCO as the bassline without a filter of VCA. Just an envelope to effect some parameters. So, I though today's video should be a live composition using the patch."

Mannequins is by Whimsical-Raps.

Radio KPD

Published on Jan 29, 2016 UncertainMusicCorps

"Inspired from an 'anything can be a drone' kind of discussion, this demo uses Disting in clocked delay mode to transmute random speech outbursts from a Radio Music (out of shot).

The delay is clocked into audio rates by a Quadra slope.

Delay output goes through a LP filter which at times is being FMed by Generator 1 on the Dual.. The folded Generator 2 is added to the mix in the later stages. Hall reverb from Eventide Space.

All recorded direct to camera."

Endangered Audio Research AD4096 + Funkbox TR-808 Drum Machine

Published on Jan 29, 2016 Bimini Road

Follow-up to Endangered Audio Research AD4096 + Funk Box TR77 Drum Machine

"This is a demo of the now legendary, long-out-of-circulation Endangered Audio Research AD4096 Analog Delay, with the Funk Box TR-808 running through it. Very few videos show what the AD4096's Infinity Mode is useful for, which is crazy to me, because I feel like that's the best, most unique part of this pedal. Infinity Mode can be tuned to creep on the edge of self-oscillation in a really organic way. New signal pushes old signal out - and in that way it's almost like a looper, or even a tape bleed emulator.

Although a guitar pedal, mixing artists contact us all the time to tell us how they use the AD4096 on drum busses - especially for dub music! I think the AD4096 is killer on drums. You can get a really loose spring-reverb-like tone from short delays.

The Momentary Expand switch shorts the Depth pot and sends it into self-oscillation - the faster the clock speed (the Time knob turned to the right - "backwards" of how most pedals work), the faster it will run wildly into speaker-blasting range. However, with Infinity Mode engaged, you don't get the ever-louder-and-louder signal - it's "limited" because the new incoming signal pushes out the old. Also, if the Depth is turned all the way down, it becomes a momentary off switch.

The Delay line is a more traditional dark, fat analog delay sound, whereas the Echo line has a elevated, rarefied glittery tone. It's almost like an LPF and an HPF line. It also arrives just barely later than the Delay line. It overdrives beautifully, and thanks to its FET transistors, it has an almost tube-like breakup. The combination of these characteristics, along with the totally unique Infinity Mode, makes this the most tonally flexible and musically useful analog delay pedal ever made.

We get almost daily emails about these pedals at Endangered Audio Research. This unit is going to be donated to Oberlin College's TIMARA program when I'm done making demo videos for it, so don't bother trying to buy it from me. We are going to add more delay time with an aftermarket mod that will be available to the public, but first, I'm making a bunch of videos with different sound sources to show what the original sounds like.

EAR is also making a new, updated version of this later this year with expanded functionality, but gotta love the original unit - named one of the best 30 guitar effects in the world by Premier Guitar Magazine.

I don't deal in unprocessed, "clean" demos, because I don't believe it shows you more about the effect you're using. Nothing exists in a vacuum, especially music.

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_...

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.

"'HASWELL’S TAIKO’ is a special edition Eurorack drum synthesiser module limited to just 100 individually numbered units.

A collaboration between synth maker ALM/Busycircuits and artist Russell Haswell, 'HASWELL's TAIKO' is a re-imagining of ALM’s popular 'DINKYS TAIKO' drum module with both a harsher darker look and sound. Expanding the existing features, this limited edition contains an alternatewavetable sound bank of 30 unique and unusual waveforms hand-drawn by Russell Haswell specifically for this module. The waveforms range from broken classics to the unorthodox and nasty reflecting Russell’s unique sound.

The waveforms range from broken classics to the unorthodox and nasty reflecting Russell’s unique sound.

The drum voice consists of 3 parts; a digital noise source with controllable frequency and release time, a wavetable oscillator with start and end frequency settings together with a variable rate (and release time, and finally a mix and tone control for the audio output. All settings, bar the tone control, are both direct and voltage controllable.

The drum voice includes a trigger input as well as accent and choke trigger inputs to add further expressive and rhythmic control.

Features

Custom ‘inverted’ matt black panel & knobs with white graphics.
Alternate wavetable sound bank with 30 unique hand drawn waveforms.
Wide varied 12 Bit digital drum sound source through fully analog EQ.
Extremely wide pallet of sounds with lots of modulation possibilities.
Digital noise generator combined with variable wavetable oscillator through an EQ and mix output.

Recording - Polyphonic Modular Patch

Recording - Polyphonic Modular Patch from BendingBus on Vimeo.

"Recording some arpeggiated chords today; modular is wired up for 3-note polyphonic.

Using a MOTM-650 tuned to pure intonation, which is outputting CV to three oscillators and envelopes. Those three tones are then mixed in a Macbeth 'Filter B' in band-pass mode to get rid of highs/lows, and focus on the midrange. Using a LFO into the filter to move it around a bit thereby creating a tremolo effect, and manually riding the CV on that.

Mono out from the modular into a Pendulum tube preamp (vintage Mullard) for some overdrive to bring out the harmonics. Liking the "small" mellow tones from this patch."
