Building Analog 909 Drums in eurorack! (Hexinverter NeinohNein)


Published on Apr 21, 2020 Extralife

"(Skip to 10:54 to hear the sound demo!) I've been toying around with drum machines and samplers for a while now, but I haven't found anything that I really like as far as sounds and sequencing and interface, so I decided to build my own. I'm starting with the Hexinverter NeinohNein kick, clap and snare, which are my favorite drum machine sounds of all time. They sound nice and punchy and crisp, especially mixed properly. Next I plan to make a proper trigger sequencer and then add a sampler module to round out the kit."

SWARM ASYNCHRØNØUS GATE GENERATØR from Møffenzeef Mødular


SWARM DEMØ Published on Apr 21, 2020 Møffenzeef Mødular


"SWARM is a rather ødd sølutiøn tø a prøblem that døesn’t exist. The mødule øutputs føur gate patterns that have nøthing tø dø with øne anøther. There’s nø cløck input før the mødule and it can’t be synchrønized tø any external tempø. The øbjective was tø create my øwn type øf pattern generatiøn mødule that alløws the user tø influence the øverall speed øf a series øf randømized gate pattern withøut being able tø actually alter them directly. When yøu flip the “løøp” switch før each assøciated jack, the pattern freezes in a similar manner tø a tape løøp; the start and end times øf the løøp are arbitrary yet each time the pattern løøps arøund it’s reminiscent øf sømething that’s sømewhat musical due tø the repeating structure. The øutputs are structured in such a way sø that the first øutput is the fastest randømized pattern and the subsequent øuputs are incrementally sløwer. Why wøuld yøu want sømething like this? I døn’t really knøw, but I made it før yøu. Thrøw me a frickin’ bøne m8."

Vintage Mystery Synth


Anyone know what this is? It was recently spotted by Florian Anwander who had the following to say:

"This device was used while a live stream from a Hamburg Club streaming event. We had the impression, that it made 808 like drumsounds, but we are not sure. I tried to turn and unskew the picture to make the writing readable, but
the success is mediocre. It might read Mma 090. It looks like the grey rectangle is a speaker (there is a second under the moog FX). Can anyone identify what it is?"

The style reminds me of Boehm or Bohm, but I couldn't find it in the archives. If you know what it is let us know!

Update via Florian in the comments:

"Richard von der Schulenburg, who used it while this event, kindly answered my request. It is a 'PENTA Stereo keyboar' by the brand GERLAND. I found as a single hit on google this picture.

I've never heard about it, neither the brand nor the instrument. If I search for the brand name, then I find typical home organs."



GARLAND is an organ brand. Note the button style is the same as the PENTA.

I brought some equipment home from the studio for the lockdown period. I made this acid track whilst reminiscing of the raving days. The 90's were a great time and moulded my style!

I'll be completely pulling this set up apart to make way for a new addition, the Roland MC707 so watch out for more new content. coming soon.

Thanks and enjoy.

Korg Electribe 2 - Running drums, perc and some bass.
Future Retro 777 - The acid machine, output(mono) to input L of the Virus to use its effects and filter.
Bass Station 2 - Playing Arps/rave sound, output(mono) going to input R of the Virus to use effects, filter and LFO's.

Bleepy Machine Groove


Published on Apr 21, 2020 Urs Heckmann

Urs Heckmann of U-he software on heurorack.

"4 Oscillators FMing each other through CVilization acting as 4 x 4 sequential switch.

This is an experimental patch that I wanted to try for a while: 4 Oscillators are plugged into CVilization, which then is plugged back into the FM inputs of the oscillators. CVz' Sequential Switch mode then distributes a different oscillator to FM any other with each clock step, resulting in complex FM patterns.

After some tweaking, at some point I found this bass groove which kind of seemed noteworthy. As I hadn't set this up in a proper studio, I simply used my phone to record the video while tweaking. I reckon the lofi video experience matches the randomness of the music quite nicely.

Patch Notes:

CVilization in 4 x 4 Sequential Switch mode
MI Grids for rhythm and clock
4 x Mini Mod Osc by AJH, feeding through CVz into themselves, and into 2 VCFs/VCAs for 2 dual voices with 2 VCOs each
Filters by AJH (Mini Mod) and Make Noise (QPas, used in stereo)
VCA by Intellijel (uVCA) and Make Noise (X-Pan)
Intellijel Quadrax for envelopes, triggered by Grids
Additional sequencing and by Xaoc (Moskwa, Tirana)
Erica PicoDrums for base drum
Xaoc Praga for Mixing
Erica PicoDSP for reverb
Alright Devices Chronoblob 2 for delay"

How To Edit Korg NTS-1 'WAVES' Oscillator - Korg NTS1 Tutorial


Published on Apr 21, 2020 ChrisLody

"Just a quick tutorial video on how to edit the Korg NTS-1 'WAVES' oscillator. The WAVES oscillator is a custom oscillator for the NTS-1 that comes pre-installed. It's got a lot more depth than the other oscillator settings but unfortunately the details aren't really covered properly in the manual or anywhere on the net that I can find. So here is my exploration of it. It can be an extremely gritty sounding oscillator, or layered set of waveforms when pushed."
