Todd Barton on BBC Sounds + Multum in Parvo Release


Excerpts of Todd Barton's performance at the Unsound Festival in Krakow is up on BBC Sounds.

"A rebroadcast of excerpts from my performance of Music and Poetry of the Kesh at the Unsound Festival in Krakow last month with a wonderful ensemble of Polish musicians. Here's the link which will be active for a month.

And the first excerpt on the broadcast is from my new solo Buchla Music Easel album, Multum in Parvo with cover art by Ursula Barton! [embed below]

Much more to come in 2019! Gigs in Belgium, NYC and Santa Barbara. New Album releases too.

Happy Holidays!
Best wishes,
Todd"




"If you’re anything like me, then one of your favourite albums of 2018 was Music and Poetry of The Kesh, released on the Freedom To Spend label. Recorded over two years in the mid-1980s, Music and Poetry of The Kesh in truth was never really designed as an ‘album’ as such. It was a cassette bundled with early editions of the legendary author Ursula K. Le Guin’s Always Coming Home novel.

The novel described the art, culture, language and ethnography of a fictional tribe of indigenous inhabitants of North California, 500 years from now. On the tape, Le Guin and her friend and collaborator, composer and sound artist Todd Barton, created a detailed, vivid musical identity for these people - the Kesh.

Listened to in 2018, the sounds of Music and Poetry of The Kesh feel simultaneously ancient and futuristic. Todd designed and built new instruments to realise the Kesh’s music, which were woven among synthesisers and field recordings from the Kesh’s native Napa Valley.

It’s a stunning, singular piece of work, but the story doesn’t end there. Anyone intrigued by Music and Poetry of the Kesh would be well advised to dig further into Todd Barton’s work, starting with Multum in Parvo - a brand new piece Todd composed using the Epoch Modular Benjolin and Buchla Music Easel.

“Don Buchla created a musical instrument that he said had no ‘preconceived ideas,’” Todd recently told the Listen to This website. “He wanted people to figure out how they wanted to interface with it. You see that with Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Alessandro Cortini—they’re bringing their own voice to the palette. For my part, I’m obsessed with sound, with the ‘Buchla Paradigm.’

“His approach to synthesis, which was so different from Moog on the East coast, is immediately evident to anyone who has ever touched a Buchla instrument. If you listen to a Buchla, it will start rewiring your synapses.”

Todd honed his craft composing for acoustic instruments - string quartets, small ensembles and orchestras. In the 1970s he was drawn to emergent synthesiser technologies because of their abilities to access tones ‘between’ the standard 12 notes of the Western musical scale, and to have the power to craft music out of glitches and unique sonic gestures that are unplayable on acoustic instruments.

Multum in Parvo is reflective of this approach - it has a definite and logical flow as a composition, but its content is abstract sound sculpted out of pure energy, something only analogue synthesis can offer.

Sometimes sparse, sometimes bristling and jumping with detail, Multum... provides a genuinely multidimensional experience. Listen to it in the dark on your best headphones, you experience your brain moving slowly through a black space where an orchestra of strange, electro-microorganisms seem to swarm, murmurate and disperse, adding their distinct flutters, whispers and calls to an immersive electronic symphony.

Like the classic Forbidden Planet soundtrack, which Todd was inspired by, or indeed Music and Poetry of the Kesh - Multum in Parvo seems to function as part of some unique sonic ecology, according to its own rules, in its own universe and somewhere just beyond time.

Multum in Parvo is available on CD with artwork by the artist Ursula Barton - Todd’s daughter, named after his great friend and collaborator. It is also available on cassette with Blue Tapes artwork as ‘blue twenty-eight’.

Praise for Todd Barton:

"Multum In Parvo creates a very real imaginary place, and then it weaves that imaginary place into exactly where you are right now. I’ve listened to Multum In Parvo a dozen times or more and I’ve never heard the same album twice, because I change and my mood changes but also because incidental noises in my body and my surroundings – from sighs to car horns to distant giggles – all seem to be on very friendly terms with Todd Barton and his Buchla." - The Quietus

“Listen outdoors and the creek water you hear in Le Guin and Barton’s songs may sync up to the muddy river you’re passing; listen during a city’s winter and the percussive rhythm and bell-like tones will commune with your apartment radiator. These are sounds that seek to speak from then and beyond, to right now.” - Pitchfork

XILS-lab Updates XILS 4 Matrix Modular Soft Synth to v1.5


The press release:

XILS-lab updates ultimate matrix modular soft synth with welcomed fanciful features added to XILS 4 v1.5

“My favourite analogue synth is probably the VCS3, so when I heard that a company was releasing a software version I was quite cautious; today, XILS 4 is one of my favourite plug-ins! Working with it gives me the same excitement as the original hardware, plus there are lots of extra features, since it is basically two VCS3s with an interconnected sequencer. The sound is great, and it is one of the best soft synths on the market for experimenting with new ways of creating sounds!”

- Jean-Michel Jarre (award-winning composer, performer, and record producer), April 2015


GRENOBLE, FRANCE: audio software company XILS-lab is proud to announce availability of XILS 4 v1.5 — a major update to its self-styled ultimate matrix modular soft synth, effectively emulating a conceptual ‘blend’ of the legendary VCS4, a ‘dual VCS3’ analogue matrix modular synthesizer prototyped by British trailblazing entity EMS (Electronic Music Studios) back in 1969 but never commercially released, with pioneering British synthesist Tim Blake’s so-called ‘Crystal Machine’ (comprising two EMS Synthi AKS analogue matrix modular synthesizers with hard sync between their oscillators, one connected to the keyboard and the other connected to the sequencer) — with welcomed additional fanciful features including a powerful preset manager in a single window and new effects with semi-modular routing, as of November 30…

ROLAND JUPITER-6 - Presets, Sounds & Patches 【SYNTH DEMO】


Published on Nov 30, 2018 synth4ever

"Synth demo of the Roland Jupiter-6 analog synthesizer, filmed at the Synth Palace in Montreal, Quebec Canada (www.synthpalace.com or .net).

Introduced in 1983, the Roland Jupiter-6 synth has 6-voices of polyphony, MIDI and is well known for creating cutting leads, buzzy drones and techy blips and beeps.

The Roland Jupiter-6 features 2 VCOs per voice (CEM 3340 oscillators), 2 LFOs, osc sync and cross-mod, a resonant multimode filter (LP/BP/HP), 2 ADSR envelopes, arpeggiator, bi-timbrality and unison mode.

Many people consider the Roland Jupiter-6 to be the little brother of the Roland Jupiter-8, but the Jupiter 6 stands on its own two feet and has its own distinct sound.

This Roland Jupiter 6 synth demo features some ambient sounds, patches and presets from the Jupiter 6 analog synth from Roland including leads, arpeggiator, pads, LFOs, noise and resonance.

All sounds are from the Roland Jupiter 6 synthesizer with a touch of delay from Strymon El Capistan effects pedal."

GOD's BOX Loose Fruit (a unique and inspiring dual eurorack waveshaper)


Published on Nov 30, 2018 DivKidVideo

"**TIMING INDEX BELOW** So here's my fulsome demo of the new Loose Fruit from GOD's BOX. For some reason I keep saying stage rather than state for the two main controls, they mustn't teach us to read in Yorkshire. Loose Fruit is a dual channel / dual state wave shaper that inspires exploration and experimenting with your patching. Stereo operation, series or parallel processing, modulation (audio rate yay!), cross fading, processing audio or CV it takes to whatever you throw to it nicely.

Available at https://www.thonk.co.uk/shop/loosefruit/

TIMING INDEX // SECTIONS

00:11 Patch previews

01:08 Feature run down and basic sound/function demo

05:30 Drones & addressing states, pitch shifts/harmonics and modulation

07:35 Parallel processing two different waves at different pitches. This also covers the crossfader, making dry/wet blends and stereo processing.

10:49 Series processing, input to state 1 then state 1 output to state 2 for more processing

13:06 Processing granular loops (reversed piano) and using Loose Fruit to create “distant noise memories” while trying to make Hainbach love me through the sounds I’ve created.

16:16 Processing CV to create new complex, infinitely more interesting CV modulation signals.

20:07 Processing drums and using other modules with Loose Fruit to create melodies & textures from drum sounds.

23:56 Exploring Feedback both with static waves and melodies.

27:34 Audio rate modulation over all CV inputs.

31:41 Outro waffle and with a crunchy little beat."

GOD's BOX Lollipop - FET & Vactrol/Opto based compressor for Eurorack


Published on Nov 30, 2018 DivKidVideo

"**TIMING INDEX / SECTIONS BELOW** Here's the lovely sounding FET and Opto (vactrol) based compressor from GOD's BOX called 'Lollipop'. It has a great input/output gain stage and some nice drive and saturation when pushed. You get control of threshold, ratio, attack and release with external CV input and level for side chain (works well with audio or just triggers) and CV input and level control for threshold. Take this video as a tutorial and series of ideas on how to make use of a compressor, there's some production tips in the video that will hopefully help people get the most out of any compressor, but of course grab a Lollipop it sounds great and I want another one! :)

New shiny GOD's BOX site - http://godsbox.co.uk
Available from - https://www.thonk.co.uk/shop/lollipop/

Note - all the examples here are a bit more heavy handy with compression than you may want to use them. That's purely as demoing a compressor over YouTube is really hard, so I wanted to make sure things were as obvious as possible while also showing the range of the device.

TIMING INDEX / SECTIONS

00:19 Patch previews // what’s to come in the video

01:09 Quick verbal feature run down and look at the panel

01:50 DivKid’s school of audio compression - a quick primer on compression and the common controls

03:18 Compressing beats - compression demo and look at CV over threshold for dynamic / random modulation. This also look at parallel blends aka New York Compression.

08:18 Sidechain compression - ducking a bass against a kick MEGA PUMPING!

11:29 Sidechaining / ducking fully wet FX against their dry sounds - production tip for bigger FX sounds that don’t swamp the raw sound. I do this with a big reverb and a delay in this example.

14:11 Creating a “ducking delay” (see patch above, but at this point it moves to the delay instead of the reverb).

15:04 ABUSING THE LOLLIPOP - distortion, saturation and extreme compression. Looking at the in/out gain stages as well as heavy compression.

17:58 Transient Designer style functions - Compressing raw tones, much like an SPL transient designer - using the Lollipop to reshape the attack/sustain portions of a snare drum.

19:23 Compressing a guitar - Fender Telecaster (50s style for those that care, with rusty strings too they’re not from the 50s though). Both tight slappy/smacky funk and more subtle dynamic control.

21:07 Compressing a full mix - both subtle low ratio settings to add weight and control to a mix and more extreme control in parallel as a thickener."

OB-6 does Max Richter


Published on Nov 28, 2018 Kris Lennox

"Max's 'Dream 13 (minus even)', performed on/arranged for OB-6.

Original here - [embed below]

I omitted the A section repeat; I feel it works well without it.

The original is actually a cut & paste job - the cello part is a single take dropped in (piano part is also cut/paste at repeat points - you'll hear it on the original if you listen closely). I wonder if the cellist was paid to record only two notes, or was paid for each time the sample is used! Short recording session, for sure!

Bass sounds good. I'm intentionally emphasising the upper-end fizz of the SEM filter on the bass part, as it's such a distinctive sound.

Taking an acoustic work and giving it a synth arrangement such as this certainly isn't for everyone, but that's ok - it is just some fun :) Plus, as always, the Obi sounds great.

All best

AE Modular Wavefolder Tutorial, Patch Tips, & Jam #TTNM


Published on Nov 29, 2018 The Tuesday Night Machines

Jam video further below.

"Here's a quick tutorial for the Tangible Waves AE Modular Wavefolder. MORE INFO AND PATCH TIPS BELOW =)

---------

PixelNoises Synth T-Shirts by The Tuesday Night Machines:
https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/pixeln...

---------

The AE Modular Wavefolder, based on a vintage circuit design also used by Ken Stone, takes a waveform and clips and folds it. This creates a more complex sounding waveform, of which you can of course modulate the parameters with CV too. In this video I also present a few patch tips, for this seemingly simple module. Let me know if you have an questions :-)

Patch tips:
- Create a sine wave from a square wave VCO running through a low pass filter with low cutoff frequency. For pitch sequencing, you might want to add a little bit of pitch CV to the filter cutoff control too, not just the VCO. This is often called “keyboard tracking” in non-modular synths’ filter settings, which makes sure that the filter opens up a little on higher notes. Otherwise, a constant cutoff will dull the sound of higher notes more than lower notes.

- Feedback: Patch the input signal (e.g. a triangle wave) in a mixer and the mixer output in the Wavefolder. Then patch one Wavefolder output back into another mixer input and slowly turn the mix knob up. For voltage control over the feedback, patch the Wavefolder output in a VCA and from there into the mixer. Modulate the VCA with an LFO, Envelope, Sample & Hold or Sequencer then. Feedback can get very crazy quickly, so start with low knob and modulation settings.

- Since the Wavefolder creates complex (harsh sounding) waveforms, you can send them through a filter to smooth them. As they are different than your standard square or sawtooth waves, they also sound different, and often more interesting, through filters.

- Try modulating the Wavefolder’s shape with its input signal, i.e. send the triangle or sine wave audio signal in the audio input and the CV input as well."

Rakit Baby 8 and Drum Synth | Sound Demo + Overview


Published on Nov 27, 2018 littleBIGsynths

"Hey guys! New toys!! 😁 lol In this video, I give you guys a quick overview of the Rakit Baby 8 and Drum synth. Rakit is a small, UK based business who designs these really cool DIY electronic kit. interesting right? Oh, and don't worry, if you are like me and don't have any soldering skills... you can purchase them pre-assembled. 👍🏻 lol

So, I haven't really had much time to play with them, due to this crazy busy holiday season... but with the little time that I have spent with them, I have already had a ton of fun. 😉 This tiny 8 step sequencer and drum synth are definitely a great addition to my collection of battery powered jam machines and I'm really looking forward to playing with them more.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this video. As always, thank you for watching littleBIGsynths. 👊🙂"

OlllAudio-Minimoog Filter/ARP 4075 Filter - unboxing Eurorack modules


Published on Nov 29, 2018 Dziam Bass


"Today, the mail surprised us and provided an amazing delivery from OlllAudio Eurorack Modules straight from Saint Petersburg from Russia.

We are very happy because there were 4 amazing modules inside of which two of them are filters based on great vintage equipment and just one on Minimoog which is famous analog filter for modular synthesizers, the scheme was created in the 70s by Robert Arthur Moog, and the other one, filter based on ARP 4075 and this is a replica of the famous ARP Filter schematic with styroflex capacitors and main-chip which has been maked in 80-s. Both filters are provided for the creation of 'Very Fat specific sound', additionally there is one here module Ring modulation -At the heart of device is the strong transistor schematic which have maximum analogue sound ,and one multiple which of course, will always increase our eurorack system for multi conections and more combine modulation.
we opened the package from OlllAudio Eurorack Modules and today we have a small movie showing these modules and a small filtering Filter based on the classic Minimoog from the 70s.

As you can see, the sound is fat, but it's the beginning, because it's a small unpacking with a sound demo. We have already checked the ARP 4075 Filter and it's definitely awesome.

OIIIAudio certainly has a strong and thick analog sound and only classic Vintage equipment.

It is also worth checking the sale which is on a few selected modules on the official website

Roland JX-8P vs Jupiter 8


Published on Nov 28, 2018 synthlegends

"Is the JX-8P a poor mans Jupter 8? I would say no, they are very different sounding beasts! The JP-8 has more low end and is more powerful, but the JX-8P has very beautiful string, pad and lead tones.

To make an objective and fair comparison because of the built in chorus in the JX-8P I used for the Jupiter 8 a Boss CE-2w Chorus Pedal (new stuff, no vintage). The setting was an emulation of the old and famous CE-2 Pedal.

Around the first 6 minutes I demonstrate some typical classic sounds of both mashines and I tried to programm them quite comparable. I begin with two very famous keyboard hooklines. EUROPE and also ALPHAVILLE used for the original recordings a JX-8P as I made my research. Please inform me, if I am wrong!

Beginning about 6 minutes I messed around with the JX-8P and played sometimes the JP-8 as a counterpart.

Please enjoy the video and tell me your opinions about those two classic synths. Above all please forgive my when the output was not always equal. I tried to do my best of making a objective comparision. I didn't use additional effects or mastering.

Cheers, Ruediger"

The Bateleur/expander/Noise mixer from Birdkids with reverb


Published on Nov 28, 2018 Dziam Bass

"Hello Folks !!!
Today another piece of sound VCO- The Bateleur from birdkids.
Great analog VCO with FM '' Through-zero '', and a nice expander.
In addition to the normal waveforms that the Noise Mixer combines, the Bateleur also have a standalone 4-pole filter 24db /oct , and also filter input for a thick round bass sound and PWM which attenuation dial affects the amplitude of the modulation signal input.
after modulation with FM are really great effects, but about this next time I just used it for a moment of switching to FM this sound without bigger modulation.I definitely recommend it if you are looking for a thick VCO with FM and wonderful filter and glide .The new RAVEN from birdkids is also based on this oscillator and it's really awesome so it's definitely necessary to check this new project also on the Kickstarter looking at their official page here: http://birdkids.orgCheck it demo if you want.!!!"
