#jamuary2024 02 Hartmann Neuron VS in Super Locrian D


video upload by SynthAddict

"I forgot to upload this last night - another one coming later tonight.

I haven't used the mighty Neuron VS in a while. I still need to make more custom 'neural' patch models (sounds) for it.

I would love to get the Neuron keyboard, but it's rare and very expensive but looks very cool. The keyboard version has more complete software (including stick recording) and the equivalent of 3 of these Nuke controllers plus more controls onboard.
It also outputs 5.1 surround mixes if you need it.
Axel Hartmann is the man. :-)"

AI024 Eurorack X Filter Build Guide


Press release follows:


Portland, OR, USA january 3, 2024 – AI Synthesis has released the AI024 X Filter in both a built and guaranteed version, as well as in kit and PCB/Panel format.

The AI024 Eurorack X Filter is a eurorack Voltage controlled filter that brings the clean, classic, creamy four-pole low pass filtering of classic 80s synths to Eurorack.

The resonance will self oscillate and track 1/V per octave. With two AI024s and a stackable cable, an elegant stereo filter is created.

Depth: 35mm
HP: 6
-V mA: 13 mA
+V mA: 13 mA

'In the year 2000, I was in college and obsessed with modular synths, but could barely afford to eat. I knew it was possible to build your own synth, but there wasn’t anyone, or anywhere to turn to for advice. In the past decade, much more information has been published online, and in 2013 I started down my path to DIY modular. Even with all of the information online, there still lacked a single, simple, comprehensive guide for those looking to build their own synthesizer. I want AI Synthesis to be that guide. Prior to building my own synth, I was a dreamer, after building my modular, I felt I had awoken. I want to help others do the same.'

-Abraham Ingle
Founder, AI Synthesis

In addition to providing step by step build instructions, schematics, and circuit explanations, the site also includes a guide for getting started in modular synthesis, and a series of DIY Guides, with information regarding how Resistors actually work, and how to integrate a $26 scope into your Eurorack system.

video upload by CraveCave

https://fredslab.net/

"I don't know if I can record and upload a jam every day, but I don't care. In any case, I will use this year's Jamuary to make classic 2-3 min jams with all kinds of machines and without much thought. My two treasures of Fredslab (Zekit and Buzzy) make the start today with a bit of support from Miniloguexd and the black box. Whenever I lack inspiration, the two are my reliable friends. I wish you all a successful new year."

"Quick demo of a recently serviced and upgraded Korg Keio Mini Pops 7.
Every single electrolytic capacitors were replaced, instrument calibrated and fitted with Tubbutec Unipulse card which adds MIDI synchronisation AND triggers to this classic drum machine.
First part of the demo I use an Arturia Keystep Pro to sequence and program the Minipops and on the second part I simply use the Keystep to clock and start/stop the machine, showcasing a few of its patterns."

"This was a custom-built RE-303 by Raf Wlodarczyk at Michigan Synth works. I had him use custom blue and white LEDs, that are nice and diffused and not too bright, so they are easy on the eyes and look very classy. I had Raf do some other custom mods like add the ruggedized pots, so they feel really great and will last a long time. All NOS rare parts sourced. This is essentially identical to a vintage 303 minus the CPU/Midi. This unit has the rare hard to find Quick Silver CPU upgrade, not the pixie. This unit also has the designer, Paul’s, ‘dice roll mod’ which overdrives the resonance just a bit making it sound a tad sweeter to my (and others) ears. I used this one on my last album. I will miss it but already have 3 303's so need to make room for more gear."

QUADBOOL Eurorack Quad Logic Module from XOXO Modular

00:00 Intro
00:46 The Basics
04:04 Options
05:32 Alternate Modes
05:43 Alternate Mode 1: Drop A
07:14 (How the Normalization Works in Alternate Modes)
08:13 Alternate Mode 2: A²+B²
09:01 Alternate Mode 3: Daisy Chain
09:31 Get Weird
10:23 Outro



"QUADBOOL is the only logic module you'll ever need. Each of the four "quads" operates independently and can apply AND, OR, NOR, XAND, XOR, XNOR logical operators on its two inputs. This allows you to create infinite rhythmic variations, complex clocks, and strange patterns. (Check out this excellent video [posted here] by DivKid to see the power of logic!)

Each of the lighted buttons mirrors the output jack so you can see the effect that the selected logic operator is having. There are no menus to dive into - just the ability to lock all buttons to avoid accidental nudges and the ability to save the state of the module. A few alternative modes are available, allowing you to add some interesting normalizations between inputs and outputs. This module packs a lot of punch for creating rich patterns and rhythms."

MakeDrums | Telharmonic, LXD and Strega


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"There's a reason why MakeNoise doesn't have a dedicated drum module. They'll always encourage you to make your own noise. Telharmonic used to be the only module with a dedicated noise output, but it's discontinued. Fortunately the new Spectraphon firmware makes up for that loss. Strega's delay can also make a mighty rumble, but it needs to be shaped by an envelope to qualify as a percussive strike. If you have a 0-coast nearby, you can use the external input to do this.

I am using the LxD for this because it's a true vactrol based LPG. It's not discontinued (yet), but it's almost impossible to get. It used to sell around $100, but people dare to ask $300 for it now. You can still get the $200 Optomix so there's no need to pay that kind of cash. With the risk of repeating myself: get one before it's too late. If you don't have a LPG, you have too much VCA's. I am using an aftermarket LxD faceplate from a company that went out of business due to the cancel culture. There's a Christianity fish symbol on the back and the Community did not appreciate evangelism through faceplates. In the end, it's just a beautiful black LxD faceplate and it's taming my Witch. May the Lord open.

I am also getting a bit of help from my highly appreciated pair of Phonogenes. The black and gold used to be part of the shared system, but many people sold it when the Morphagene came - which is superior in every way except one. I'll explain tomorrow."
