SynthPlex 2022: Erica Synths Perkon and Syntrx II

video upload by sonicstate

"We recently reviewed the Perkons performance drum machine fro Erica Synths, but you cant beat hearing what its maker can do with it, so we were lucky to find Girts Ozolins, the main man on the booth. He showed us a little of what makes the Perkons a popular machine for performers, and also we got a look at the Syntrx II the EMS AKS inspired synthesizer with digitally controlled patch bay. It has more focus on input processing than Syntrx I.

Available later this year priced at around €1800 euros."

Expanding the Mother 32 - Sub-octaves, wave multipliers & extra VCO's for chords & vintage fatness

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Here are some ideas for expanding the sonic possibilities and fattening up the sound of the Moog Mother 32 analogue synth - We're sometimes contacted by customers who have, or want to add AJH Synth modules to theirs, as the Mother 32 has great connectivity for Eurorack integration, so hopefully this will video will show a little of what is possible. The Mother 32 has a single oscillator, so the most obvious choice would be to add more VCO's, in order to perform harmonies and simple chords, but also it doesn't have a sub-bass, or sub-octave generator, so this may also be worth considering. In this video we demonstrate both of these options, using the MiniMod Vintage Transistor Core VCO's, the Ring SM to generate sub-octaves and as a CP3 style mixer, but also the Wave Swarm to simulate multiple stacked sawtooth waves. We also use the Sample Hold & Slew to generate rhythmic, random filter modulation, the Precision Voltages as a convenient way to select precise octave and semitone pitch changes of VCO's, and use the V-Scale to address 1V/Oct scaling/tracking issues that may occur when using the Mother 32 to control external VCO's or other instruments via CV.

The AJH SYNTH Eurorack range consists of high-end modules, all hand-made in the UK, most of which are based on classic, vintage designs, authentically recreating the circuitry of much sought-after analogue instruments and technologies of the past, whilst greatly expanding them, and bringing them to modern Eurorack levels of convenience, limitless flexibility, and reliability.

SynthPlex 2022: Five12 Vector Updates and QV-L Function Module

video upload by sonicstate

"The Five12 Vector Sequencer has a lot of fans - Daniel Miller uses it in his live and studio setups and many more. The firmware 3.0 is approaching and we got a look at some of the features coming with James Coker. He also showed us a new module - the QV-L which is a complex multi-function generator with LFOs., Envelopes and much more besides. With four modulation busses and a ton of configuration possibilities, it packs a lot into a single module.

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
This is the second patch in this new series of very long modular soundscapes which will be anywhere from one hour to 4 hours depending on the complexity of the patch and how many modules I am using.

Seems like y'all really enjoyed the previous one, so I will continue on this trajectory. 1 or 2 videos per week, as well as some Ambient Explorations episodes which are coming soon.
Cheers!

"16 tracks, excellent 32 channel midi implementation, on-board effects, immediate sound shaping, velocity sensitive drum pads/keys, amazing Z-plane filters
This is an amazing machine for 90's techno, house, and ambient styles!
This unit comes with the stock XROM card, but I have upgraded it by adding the Techno Synth Construction Yard and the BeatGarden ROM cards! These are normally found in the E-mu Orbit 3 synth. This gives you several thousand presets.
There is only one ROM slot left for you to add to before the unit is maxed out."

The Prettiest Analog Synth (That Also Sounds Fantastic)

video upload by HAINBACH

"If you like the synth sounds of Boards of Canada, Plaid and other early Warp acts, and you appreciate beautiful design, the Mutuca FM by Arthur Joly [Reco-Synth] is for you. Arthur send me it a while with no strings attached, and when I finally found time to play with it, I was amazed by its sounds and decided to record a video on it. The Mutuca has a warm and rich tone, almost like it was already processed on tape. Not a synth for every situation, but basses and leads it does charmingly well.

Midicake ARP - Custom Chords and Octave lock

video upload by midicake

"Showing off Midicake ARP's abilities in customizing the notes available to the arpeggios.

I also lock the bass pattern to a fixed octave so it doesn't follow the global octave during the jam.

You might even spot me editing the bounce pattern. That will be available in the upcoming firmware update. More news on that very soon.

I hope you enjoy this, let me know in the comments what you'd like to see in these videos. The recent music box demo tunes are all very nice but I want to do more varied musical styles. A little edgier maybe? I'm open to suggestions.

"Elektron users have been waiting a long time for this new feature, and while its not for all units, the Digitone, Digitakt and Syntakt all get it. We caught up with Mario Hernandez for an over view of what it can to. As with many Elektron features, its geared around performing and the ability to hold and loop at any point in the song is a cool feature."

Osi-Op : Making a Kick Drum (Drum Synthesis) : Vaemi (Eurorack)

video upload by Vaemi

"Hello
Today we will make kick with Osi-Op and talk about drum synthesis.
First, let's set up our audio signal chain.
Now we connect the output of our Main VCA to our speakers.
We plug the Sine Wave Output of Oscillator 1 to channel 1 of VCA.
Gozinta is a preamp module. We will use this module for clipping later in the video.
We connect the trigger from the sequencer to the Trig Input of the Function Generator.
With the help of Stack Cable, we will route this trigger signal to Trig Inputs of other function generators.
That is, Trig In 1 will directed to Trig In 2, Trig In 2 to Trig In 3 and Trig In 3 to Trig In 4.
For clipping, let this cable stay here for now.
The first Envelope will control the amp.
the second Envelope will be connected to the LPG module which will control the FM signal.
LPG Output will be connected to the TZ FM Input of the 1st oscillator.
Now let's connect your 2nd oscillator, which will make FM, to LPG.
One of the most important connections that will now create the kick and drum synthesis is that the Envelope controls the frequency of the Oscillator.
For this, I multiply the output of 3 Function Generators with a multiple and direct them to 2 oscillators.
I usually prefer to use 2 Envelopes to control the frequency of the oscillator.
Let's use this envelope by duplicating it over buffered multiple.
the fourth envelope will set it shorter to get a sharper, brighter, punchy attack sound.
I connected the third envelope to the Exp.FM input and the fourth envelope to the 1v/oct input.
After all, they are doing the same thing on both entries. At this point, some minor changes can be made.
Now we can start to hear the patch we made.
After all, you can kick with a single envelope generator, but using too many envelopes this way will give you a lot of flexibility and freedom in making sounds.
Since the Thru Zero Fm technique does not distort the frequency of the oscillator, it will allow you to shape your kick's first attack sound on a much wider scale.
Now let's activate clipping.
In this way, you can get sounds with richer harmonics, harder, brighter, and the low end is more stable. In this way, you have a chance to get much more aggressive sounds."
