A DB-01 noodle: Gates as ghost notes
video upload by Richard DeHove
"Ghost notes (or grace notes) are little extra hits or embellishments that add a subtle extra feel or layer. With the DB-01 the CV gate input and CV VCF inputs are perfect for this. Here I use the Fractio Solum by Noise Engineering to provide the gate signals. The LFO into the VCF CV is from the Erica Synths Drum Modulator dual LFO. Both are synced to the same clock as the DB-01. To give the programmed notes on the DB-01 a bit of extra initial envelope the internal LFO is set to reset with each note.
There are three audio examples. The effect is reasonably subtle so if you watch the actual notes on the timeline versus the audio "hits" then the ghost note effect is more obvious. You can also see the trigger light on the Fractio (the white cable) to see when the gate is firing. Pattern three has an odd 4/3 gate timing which produces somewhat off-beat hits.
I think the main value in the ghost notes is to create variations of standard patterns that can help maintain interest and movement. And they're fun to play with :D

Moog DFAM + Subharmonicon + 2x Mother-32 Jam
video upload by lucafrancinimusic
"I finally got the mighty Moog quartet and this is my first sort of techno/trance jam with all of them.
DFAM - kick
first Mother-32 - bass
second Mother-32 - melodic line
Subharmonicon- its polyrhythmic stuff
All moogs summed into their mixer that comes with the Moog studio kit and the summed track into Beads and to DAW.
Since I've recorded a big mono track, I've applied a stereo delay and reverb in Cubase to mid and hi freq only, to leave the kick mostly untouched."

Circuit Tracks Electro-Pop with TX7 and Alpha Juno
video upload by Tum Tum
"This one is almost all on the Circuit Tracks. I sort of thought I'd be leaning heavier in the Circuit for Jamuary 2022, it's a really great little sketch pad and idea machine, but I think this I only ended up using it for a quarter of the tracks (obviously still quite useful). Additional sounds from the Yamaha TX7 and Roland Alpha Juno.
#Jamuary 22nd 2022."

Sequential Take 5 demo
video upload by Josh Korody
"Just a 1st impression jam after taking "home" (My Studio) the Take 5. This was just noodling on 1 single patch with a simple TR8s kit to go along with it. Theres so many nice patches to explore on this thing and i'm sure there are other videos showcasing that. It really seems to be a synth capable of almost anything. All the FX are from the Take 5. No additional processing other than a couple DB of gain reduction from a API 2500 hardware unit to tame peaks. This one is a keeper!"

The Stars Are Veiled | 1010 Lemondrop Ambient
video upload by r beny
"Recently picked up a 1010 Lemondrop Nanobox. Still in the learning process. I wanted to see if I could create a track using the Lemondrop alone, with no external sequencing or processing. Here is the result.
Patch notes: The two grain engines are scanning through my own acoustic and synthesized material (mandolin, guitar, piano, Korg Opsix). I'm using the hold function on the built-in screen keyboard to keep the grain engines running. The built-in oscillator is being sequenced by the built-in modulation sequencer. There's some slight modulation on one of the filters (notch). I then play with the grain parameters (mapped to the X/Y knobs) and the effects by hand."
A Modular Sleep Study (ambient patch)
video upload by Poorness Studios
"I couldn't sleep the other night so I decided to make a patch on the modular synthesizer. Not only did I come up with this... but I also fell asleep. I guess it was a modular sleep study. Who knew modular synths were a sleep aid? :-)
Random fact: there are no dedicated VCAs used in this patch."

"Razor really is one of the coolest synths out there, I love how additive synths, it has a different workflow from the others, but so do most other additive synths. Today I'm going to really sit and explore some more of these sounds hidden in razor"

NLC LDRama - Eraserhead trailer video upload by blambo blambo
via this auction
"This is a really cool module. The LDRama has a grid of Light Dependent Resistors (or LDR, this the name) about the size of a phone screen. Put a video on your phone in fullscreen, rest the screen on the LDRs (hard to do if the module is racked vertically, so beware) and it generates CV in reaction to the video. It can take an input, or it's normaled to a constant voltage, attenuates it based on the LDRs, and gives you a bunch of outs. It's super fun, totally different from anything I have seen in modular, and is just brilliant."
