hard wood tryophyte demo

Will M

Also available as a eurorack module on Reverb

"Tryophyte is a monophonic touch-based synthesizer with an onboard touch-controllable bandpass filter. Each of the touch pads acts as one of three binary inputs to a frequency divider acting on the main oscillator. This allows for a playable scale consisting of an interval for each combination of the three pad inputs.
​
The bandpass filter acts to shape the pulse wave oscillator and both resonance and frequency can be controlled via touch."

Higher Levels by Moognase/Blipmusik

New album from supporting member, Moognase

"The album 'Higher Levels' was created using three different Yamaha QY sequencers, the QY700, QY100 and QY70. The album is a fun collection of pieces dating from 1997 to 2020.

The music this time around is a bit more folky and closer to traditional music (and even circus music) than my usual material. The music was composed in a number of countries – Germany, Ireland, UK, Cyprus, and Canada, and reflects various musical influences."

For more on the Stylophone please visit www.dubreq.com
_____________________
"What is a Stylophone?” you ask. The original Stylophone pocket synthesizer was invented in 1967 by Brian Jarvis and manufactured by Dubreq from 1968 to 1975 as Stylophone, the original pocket electronic organ. Over three million original Stylophone synthesizers were produced and sold before the company ceased production. Today’s Stylophone reissue was introduced by the inventor’s son, Ben Jarvis and is manufactured by Dubreq, Ltd. The reissue retains all of the original features but with up-to-date technology. The current Stylophone retro pocket synth is a modern, portable synthesizer with a hit-filled past and present.

AtomoSynth - Supervoid EP [Full Album]

"Hello World! I am happy to present you with my new EP called "Supervoid" the concept is the minimalism and was inspired by the idea of the vacuum of space, that's why it's name "Supervoid". Voids are vast spaces of nothingness between chains of galaxies and some of the largest cosmic voids are called Supervoids which are estimated to be about 326000000 light years in diameter. In this great nothingness, however, exists something: Time, particles, physics laws, radiation and space.

Each track has been recorded live in one take. using the AtomoSynth Perceptron semi-modular synthesizer (bass, leads), an ipad (drums, leads, effects) and midi controllers.

released June 30, 2020
Composed, produced and performed by Alfredo Aliaga in Lima Peru AtomoRec studios 2020.

Tracks:
1. Time 00:00
2. Particles 07:35
3. Physics laws 14:52
4. Radiation 22:22
5. Space 30:35"

slow music - Playing with the new w/ firmware

junklight

"Basically this whole patch/track snowballed out of playing with the exciting new firmware for the Whimsical Raps w/ module - this is using the delay mode. Absolutely no scripts on either Crow or Teletype for once. Having decided that it was a candidate for leaving the rack - I'm getting to know Rene a lot better and using it more. Ochd also proving to be superb - it gets used in *everything*. A proper 'value for money' purchase!

The new "landscape" setup is really helping me get to know modules better - because I can see them properly! Looking forward to the virus easing enough for me to go for an eye test and get some varifocals or something (I'm not hurrying 'cos of all my heart stuff )

I stopped caring about "views" so it builds very slowly, won't interest the watch the first 10 seconds and skip crowd at all. Eagle eyed viewers might spot a little doggy in the mix :-) The video layout possibly marginally better than last weeks but still working on it"

AJH Synth 'Entropic Doom' Noise Oscillator/VCO/Ring Modulator (Eurorack)

DreamsOfWires

"Some ways of using the Entropic Doom eurorack module from AJH Synth - first as a melodic noise oscillator, then as a ring modulator. It has it's own low-pass filter, with resonance, and tracks 1v/oct - in the first patch you can hear the sound directly from the module straight into a VCA. Turn on subtitles for a brief explanation of what I'm doing.

If you want the technical details about the module and what it can do, check out https://ajhsynth.com/Entropic.html, and keep an eye on my channel for more videos featuring this unusual and useful little box of tricks.

Patching Panda Moon Phase // Mid side based stereo Eurorack filter

DivKidVideo

"Here’s the new Moon Phase stereo Eurorack filter from Patching Panda. Moon Phase is unique in that it implements a mid side matrix to construct a stereo image (that you can manipulate) from a pair of filters. There’s 8 different modes combining different filter types, frequency and resonance controls plus frequency span and stereo image controls all with CV control. Modes can be switched via a trigger (or oscillator) to get more drastic rhythmic shifts and the left hand input normalises to the right input to create stereo images from mono sources, or you can process stereo sources with the independent inputs. Be sure to grab the free quick start guide below and check out the links. Cheers!

Here are some patch notes:
--------------------------------------------------
- I have a piano loop recorded on Morphagene and on Nebulae. Nebulae is playing this loop at a lower speed, and it's going to the Microcell for some reverb.
- The 1U Noise Tools is triggering the Basimilus at a low rate.
- I have a few notes recorded on Arbhar, just a simple sine wave, and this is going to Freak in Debriatus mode for some saturation.
- I've recorded another segment on the Mimeophon, 2 notes with Plaits in Filtered Noise mode.
- I recorded another sine wave line on Magneto, which is set to Shift mode.
- I'm using the PRTC model on Vraids (Braids on the Vult Freak), and this is going to the 2HP Freez.
- I'm using the 1st clock output of Magneto to trigger the Disting in dual S&H mode, and this is triggering and modulating the 2HP Freez."

"Madlab Noise-X - digital synth that was built by me (fairly experienced builder) from DIY kit (have had no problems with it, but should note that a thorough reading of the manual is recommended - there are many features that can only be reached by selecting button combinations.) includes manual.

One 'odd design' note: the output is a 3.5mm jack, but it is actually a stereo jack, and the audio is actually only routed on one channel.

from the original description:

"A digital synthesiser that behaves more like an analogue synthesiser. Great for making sci-fi sound effects. Using a combination of sliders and rotary pots, a variety of atmospheric sounds can be created.

4 DCOs (digitally-controlled oscillators) + mixer

pitch and amplitude LFOs

waveforms - sine, square, triangle, rising sawtooth, falling sawtooth, pulse, noise

frequency modulation and ring modulation

delay line with feedback

flanger

Ensoniq Fizmo 48-Voice Transwave Synthesizer

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

via this auction

"The Fizmo is a 48-voice synth that comes loaded with great presets running the gamut from deep slowly evolving washes to lead voices to drums and bass and some sounds that are basically “none of the above” all of which can be tweaked and saved. It also has an arpeggiator with 118 preset patterns which you can edit to make your own.

The real power of the Fizmo is that it is designed to be played live. The 5 F-I-Z-M-O knobs just above the keys give you real time control over 5 parameters of whatever patch is active. That’s a lot of performance control without having to do any menu diving. But it is also a great studio tool for creating deep, involving patches.

If you are familiar with the Fizmo’s history, you know that some units had an issue with the factory supplied wall wart and the internal power regulator. This unit had the regulator replaced soon after being purchased (new). It has worked flawlessly ever since."

It works perfectly.

This is owned by cult band Sneaker Pimps (keyboarder player and synth aficionado Liam Howe). It has featured on many modern records.

It has been owned by Liam since 1984 (it’s birth) and has been kept with care.

It has just 8 basic knobs for the same basic 303-like control: tune, filter cutoff, resonance, env-mod, accent and decay. Unlike the 303 however, the oscillator can be varied from sawtooth to square from a knob on the front! Also featured is an external audio input to the filter for processing other elements."

Vintage 1970's Ace Tone MultiVox Rhythm Ace FR-8L Analog Drum Machine

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

via this auction

"Manufactured by Ace Electronics in Japan and marketed in the US by Multivox. Founded in 1960 by Ikutaro Kakehashi, Ace Tone can be considered an early incarnation of the Roland Corporation, which was also founded by Kakehashi. The FR-8L was Ace Tone predecessor to the Roland TR-77.

This particular model appears to be the portable version of the FR-8L, having a carrying handle and rugged case vs. the wood grain finish of other versions. The unit is in very good cosmetic condition for its age. Output was tested using a 1/4" headphone jack and all functions appeared to work. As noted in the description condition, there is a slight scratching sound in the potentiometer slider for a couple of the drum effects, but when set, they work fine.

After powering on the unit, the "Start/Stop" touch sensitive metal button on the upper left is pressed to start and stop the rythm."

Just look at the picture from inside of the SH-09, INSANE!
