Tomita Whistle Patch Tutorial

video by Synthesizer Reviews // Tips // Patch Tutorials

See this post for the original.

"This is my attempt at recreating the iconic Whistle patch created by Isao Tomita.

Most people with Eurorack or 5U Systems can easily emulate the patch. I couldn't find a step by step tutorial online so I made this.

Some notes that are unclear from my video.

The mixer knobs ended up being
LFO turned up to 1.3
Pitch Envelope turned up to 2.3

I also have set up a VCA for keyboard velocity."

UDO Audio Super 6 - Sinister Six video by GSF AGENCY

"This piece of music, including percussion and sound effects, is done entirely with UDO Audio's Super 6 binaural analog-hybrid synthesizer. I spent about a month and a half developing sounds for the Super 6, after which I massively multitracked the synthesizer into Mark Of The Unicorn's Digital Performer over several weeks time. At first, I tried out a pseudo orchestral intro to see how well my sounds worked together, and then took a joyride through various moods and musical styles. This Sinister Six piece is an imaginary cinematic journey, heavily influenced by the pioneers of synthesis with a few nods to world music; it showcases the broad stereo binaural effects and the range of the instrument's capabilities.

Haken Continuum / EaganMatrix: Using the ContinuuMini as a W,X,Y,Z Eurorack CV Controller

video by EaganMatrix Programming

"Demonstrating one of an almost infinite ways to use a ContinuuMini with Evaton Technologies uCVC as a four degree of freedom (WXYZ) controller for Eurorack systems (though it could be used this way with any system that uses CV input to manipulate sound parameters). Here the Mini primarily controls a TiNRS Tuesday Sequencer and Rabid Elephant Natural Gate that are really 'running the show' (not ContinuuMini pitch and envelope control). EaganMatrix CVC programming is used to impart a much more complex CV interaction that would be possible with a traditional XY CV (for example joystick) controller. Note with only a ContinuuMini and a uCVC, you will ideally want to set your preset Polyphony 1 to avoid discontinuities when playing polyphonically which is not the intent here but you might do it without realizing it (not using ContinuuMIni audio output at all here)."

Radio City (jamming w/live FM radio & tape loop)

"I decided to give this idea a try and I was fairly pleased with the results. I'm using a ByronStatics KCS-315 AM/FM radio and a Sony TCM-200DV variable-speed cassette player along with my Volca Bass, Volca Beats, and Microbrute synthesizers. The 7-second tape loop you hear was made by The Void Electronics in Ireland.

VM2500 Walk-through

video by boxoftextures

"Cherry Audio recently released their VM2500 Collection, basically recreations of the ARP 2500 series of modules and I had to immediately purchase a set. This is more of a deep dive than my more usual synth demos, both because there are a lot of modules in the set, although I only cover some of them, but also because with modular systems there's simply a huge amount of options available in how you set everything up. Which is the basic idea of course. In this video I walk you through a number of different patches, going over these particular modules and how I used them but also getting into general modular principles. I'm assuming at least some prior knowledge of how synthesis works as this isn't really a Beginning Modular Synthesis course, although I've thought of doing a series along those lines to be honest, but even if you're a beginner you should at least be able to get an idea of what I'm aiming for.

The patches I make here include just a basic does-this-make-noise patch, then a "typical" synth patch, although it feels to me like a typical '70s ARP sound. I follow those up with two sequencer-driven patches and then a self-playing generative type of patch. Kind of a wide range there.

Erica Synths BLACK DUAL ASR EG

video by Molten Music Technology

"It's two envelope generators in a single Black package that will give you Attack, Sustain and Release (or Decay depending on who you speak to). It has so many interesting features that it's a half-decent replacement for a Make Noise Maths. Let me see if I can show what it does.

Intro - 0:19​
Quick demo - 1:37​
What is an ASR envelope? - 3:39​

Krell patch - 25:35​
Independent envelopes on 2 oscillators - 26:55​
Drones - 28:40​
Short mode / Long mode jumper - 29:46​
Higher drone tones with faster envelope - 30:08​
Comparing long and short modes - 31:12​
Conclusion - 34:46​"

"The Black Dual ASR EG is a versatile, full analogue looping AD/ASR envelope generator with voltage control over attack and release times, that can also be used as low frequency oscillator with manually and voltage controlled shape and rate. It has two identical parts, each featuring all typical envelope generator controls and bonus features – the end of the cycle output and bi-polar LFO output. When in loop mode the shortest attack and decay settings turn the module into voltage controlled drone oscillator with adjustable waveform (it will not track 1V/oct, though).

ATO V Project 16n rework - Building the kit

video by Synth Diy Guy

"Building this wonderful faderbank kit from Berlin! All premium parts, standalone with a nice black chassis, fun and easy build!
More info here: https://atovproject.de/products/16nre...​

My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/quincas"

"The 16n AtoVproject Rework is aimed at solving a problem very specific to modular synthesis. As a patch is getting more and more complex a forest of cables has grown over your system before you know it. This module allows you to take the control from the modular into a very ergonomic controller that integrates perfectly into a modern studio.

The 16n AtoVproject Rework is a controller sending CV, I2C, MIDI jack, USB MIDI (compatible PC, Mac, iPad etc...), making it the absolute ultimate controller for any of your hardware and software all in one!

Even better this controller can either be used as a Eurorack module or as a standalone unit using the beautiful aluminum enclosure.

In 2019, the Berlin Modular community showed interest in building the 16n Faderbank. As one of the Berlin Modular community organizers, I decided to make a redesign of the 16n faderbank following the suggestions and desires of our members. The 16n AtoVproject Rework is the result.

"Synthesizer equipped with D.W.G.S. (Digital Waveform Generator System). The waveform of the actual musical instrument sound is simulated by the "overtone addition method". It is possible to create more realistic sounds! It is also called a "hybrid" synth because it is basically processed by analog circuits. The intro of the famous Europe The Final Countdown is played on this DW-8000! There is a feeling of use such as small scratches and dirt, but it is in very good condition considering the aging. A valuable one that is rarely seen these days. Maybe some people are pursuing a retro sound like this one because it is an evolved era. If you are looking for it, please do so as soon as possible!"
