Moog Model D - IMPOSSIBLE


Published on Aug 19, 2018 Jae Ryan

"Was just noodling around on my Model D and came up with this little patch. I'm running it through my El Capistan into the Octatrack using the Lo-Fi setting for some noise and distortion and then routing that through my Bigsky on an aux send with a dark and wet Bloom setting. The grit and noise is intentional. Pretty is boring."

Something New Coming from Melu Instruments



This one was spotted and sent in via Soviet Space Child.

Note the TRACK label. Multi-track synthesizer? Four knobs on top of screen, two to the right.

via Melu Instruments:

"I feel it in the air... something spectacular is coming!
"What! What? That's no Eurorack module, guys! What is that?!"
Well we can't reveal too much just yet, but let us say...

We're giddy...
We're inspired...
We're determined...

Because some times when you want something done just right... you have to make it yourself!
And we know we're not the only ones dreaming about something like this! You'll love it, just wait and see! ;)"

Voltage Modular Cherry Audio Modular Synth Software LFO ADSR Self-Play Patch


Published on Aug 19, 2018 SonicVoltage

"Voltage Modular. Virtual Instrument from Cherry Audio. Software Modular Synth Patch. Didn't get a chance to use my hardware modular during the past week, so I needed some modular noodling :).

Didn't have much time today due to some plastering work going on around the house, but stealing a few minutes here and there I tried to make a quick self-playing patch using only LFOs as the main source of pitched voltage (with quantizers) and using ADSRs to add some melodic runs triggered here and there.

Didn't want to use a proper sequencer module, had to keep it simple due to lack of time anyway, so I simply used a couple of stepped Switches to trigger drums into a simple beat."

absent detective: Push 2 & Monome Grid - grainfields,flin,operator,spitfire strings


Published on Aug 19, 2018 junklight

"The looping bass player Steve Lawson asked me if I reconstructed tracks to learn from them. I replied I often experiment with peoples techniques - and here I am experimenting with his! :-) Here using Ableton as a performance instrument - starting with pretty much nothing in the session except the instruments and building up as I go a long (the eagle eyed will notice I have a couple of samples in grain fields from an earlier practice session). I'm just recording the output of Ableton in audio hijack so I can use the record function on the push2

Regular viewers will notice I've not put my studio back together yet. I'm experimenting with a more fluid setup - letting me assemble instruments to suit a piece.

I'm very enamoured of grids as interfaces for electronic music of late - the 4ths pattern is actually quite nice to play on and I like the way they can morph into sequencers or whatever.

Lastly the Absent Detective is a character misappropriated from an M John Harrison short story. A hapless person who is perhaps trying to escape their destiny. Only visible in the echos of their assumed previous presence......"

Arturia Minibrute 2 'one synth' multitracked recording


Published on Aug 18, 2018 DreamsOfWires

"Arturia Minibrute 2 re-recording of a track I originally made with the Minibrute SE, which can be found here: https://tomorrowthecure.bandcamp.com/...
Recorded over 4 tracks on an iPad, with AUFX DUB delay and EOS2 reverb. As before it's just overdubbing parts in a linear fashion, albeit simpler and with less sound effects/details than the original Minibrute SE recording.
A version with just the sequenced part and no overdubs can be found on my Patreon page for supporters who want to see/hear the bones of the piece whilst throwing a tip into my hat. https://www.patreon.com/dreamsofwires"

AELITA - 3-VCO RAREST VINTAGE ANALOG SYNTHESIZER with MIDI

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"ALL CAPACITORS REPLACED. 1/4TRS "JACK" INSTALLED.

MIDI INTERFACE INSTALLED!For sale is a legendary, extremely rare & powerful QUEEN OF SOVIET SYNTHS - 'AELITA'.
It is a 3-oscillator monophonic synthesizer with 44 keys, produced by the Murom radio plant in the USSR in 1980s. The device is housed in a strong aluminum body. Sound control is performed with handy faders and buttons. The synth has really impressive analog sound - it is convenient for modeling of fat analog basses, classic rock leads, hard razor waves, various space FX`s, noises, ambient textures and much more... It is able to form both hard and soft timbres. By activating the UNISON function, the number of simultaneously sounding voices may be 5 or 6. Because you can detune the three independent oscillators, it is possible to create 'one finger chord hits'.

AELITA synthesizer consists of 5 basic synthesis sections, which are the following: TUNING, REGISTERS/TIMBRE (osc wave switch), UNISON/VOICE LEVEL, TIMBRES CONTROL (filter), VOLUME CONTROL (amplifier). A wide range of modulation functions are available, including RING MODULATION. The synthesizer provides a three oscillator voice, with the addition of unison function, which adds extra timbres to basic sound. Respectively, there are separate controls for all oscillators in all sections.

RITM-2 - RAREST SOVIET ANALOG SYNTHESIZER with MIDI

Endless possibilities & experimentation.
As a true analog synth Ritm-2 can also play sounds of the other classical instruments (keyboard, strings, reed and percussion instruments). It can also create some specific sounds (wind, noise of surf, train, gun and whine). Using this instrument one can play some compositions with a random pitch and a timbre.

- Sometimes called 'Russian Moog Prodigy', it has 1-osc (plus sub osc), 1LFO, 2 adsr and more.
̢ۢ First section: Portamento/Glissando.
- Modulation section: modulation frequency knob (LFO), OSC section: tuning knob from "-" to "+", modulation switch from saw, tri and random, tone switch from 32', 16', 8' or 4' , modulation level knob from 10 till 2; modulation on/off switch (linked to level knob).
- Mixer section: noise level knob, saw wave level knob, tri wave/rising tri wave switch, level of tri/rising wave.
- Filter section : cutoff freq knob, resonance, modulation switch - choose envelope, tri, wave or random,modulation level knob, keytrack button (between 1/1 keytrack or 1/2); 4 x sliders for adsr envelope.
- Output section: output volume knob, phones volume knob.
- Amp section: switch between single - triggered envelope and repeating envelope, memory knob, 4 x sliders for adsr envelope.

RH Electronics 5 Voice analog synthesizer - Major update


Published on Aug 18, 2018 RH Electronics

"It works! Well one voice does on breadboard.
Up and running are 2 oscillators (CEM3340 based, but using AS3340)
These go to a 4066 switch then the waveforms are mixed, so you can switch on all of them on both oscillators.

The oscillator is based on the Prophet 5 circuit, the voice chip is a CEM3372, which was £35 but worth it, as it has everything, 2 inputs voltage controlled mixer, a low pass filter with cutoff/resonance and a VCA

Then an envelope generator to control the filter and amp (test just the amp)

So one full voice will need
2x oscillators
1x Signal processor
2x Envelope generators
1x CV mixer for the envelope and cutoff (filter only) and LFO CV

Microcontroller will feed SPI DACs that will be the voice and control CVs, but then all the voice circuits are analog."

I know this is a long one, but I've always wanted to show the Sub Phatty and its synthesis components."

Arduino Clock Divider Logic Thing Review (for modular synthesizers)


Published on Aug 19, 2018 Sbranvlztronics

"A description of the Arduino Clock Divider Logic Thing module functionality. This module is a clock divider using an ATmega328 microcontroller, a bunch of shift registers, transistors and opamps. The 20 HP panel is made of plastic, behind it there are be four pcbs to accommodate the circuits (all hand drawn and using only thru-hole components...). The divider section has 8 outputs, with division ratios defined in software (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or whatever wanted). There is a logic section with another 8 outputs, the logic gates and divisions configuration being selected by a potentiometer and a switch (64 configurations, or algorithms). Also one AND and one XOR patcheable gates sharing two inputs, a random trigger output, and a MIDI output. The software can be modified using a FTDI connection on the front panel. The clock can be internal (controlled by a pot) or external, or can be controlled by any external continuous CV (there is an attenuation/inverter pot and an offset pot for this CV), the conditioned CV has its output on panel. And of course a lot of LEDs...
The circuits involved will be shown in another video.

Thanks for watching.

Grayce (Decay Study II)


Published on Aug 19, 2018 UncertainMusicCorps

"Dual Looping Delay combines with Wotja to generate continuously evolving melodic ambience.

The DLD is clocked via midi despite the manual advising against external clocking (as the internal one is far more accurate). But, in this case, the occasional clock glitch generates some lovely random grace notes on the delay tails. The rewards of uncertainty...

Lead voice is from Shapeshifter. Bass voice is Warps and Braids layered.

Recorded live direct to the camera.
