"Another combo layered playing between the Sub 37 and the Summit.

Trying to describe the emotions I was feeling when this was being played, it brought tears to my eyes. Music and sound is such an incredible soul wrenching and quenching experience, especially with something that is so precious at your fingers tips.

If I am to imagine, whether when it comes or when its time to go... I will wait for the sound that calls me home."

Jolin TUTTO & SEMPRE / versatile 4 channel stereo mixer with patchbay / explanation and demo

video upload by BRiES

"In this video I take a look at the extensive and unique features on TUTTO & SEMPRE, an interesting stereo mixer by Jolin. It's really useful to have a patchbay (extra intputs and outputs where you can 'insert' modules) and built-in VCAs are always a big plus on any module, especially on a mixer. 1 Aux input, 2 headphone outputs with seperate cue inputs, ... there's a lot going on in this mixer.

0:00 intro
1:02 sound snippets
1:55 explanation
6:42 exploration
20:36 patch examples"

via Jolin

"TUTTO&SEMPRE is a stereo performance mixer with 4 channel strips, an active patchbay, individual VCAs, clickless mutes, individual post attenuation direct outs, a main balanced stereo output and two high fidelity headphones drivers with switchable stereo inserts.

The module consists of two main blocks:

Mixing frame

I - 4 pairs of actively normalled inputs with input LED meters.

↑ - Patchbay out – a cable here interrupts the signal flow.

↓ - Patchbay insert to get back to the mix.

V - Control voltage input for the VCAs.

Audio graded logarithmic stereo potentiometers.

Paired clickless mute toggle.

O - Individual output post attenuators.

Output stage

The main level knob regulates the volume of the three outputs: L and R are balanced line level signals while S is a combined stereo output designed to be fed into external 3.5mm interfaces.

A stand for auxiliary inputs: signals fed here will bypass the first mixing block.

The main mix continues to flow to the two headphones amplifiers. Each one of them can easily power up to 600 ohms drivers with low noise and high-fidelity performance. A stereo aux input can be fed into each one of the phones sections with a switch that allows isolated preview listening and routing to the main mix – this makes the module able to manage up to 7 stereo signals at the same time."

NONO Modular / Major Tom: Polyrhythmic Performance Sequencer

video uploads by NONO MODULAR

Update: pic of the NONO in a throwback, retro-styled, wooden drum machine case added below.

Currently on Kickstarter here

Press release follows:

Major Tom is a eurorack sequencer designed for percussive synthesis in eurorack modular context.
Technically it is a 4 track cv-gate sequencer (expandable up to 12 tracks with expanders modules) and with some unique features focused on rhythmic and polyrhythmic aspects.

In 1972, EKO COMPUTERHYTHM introduced the first programmable drum machine to the market and invented the 16 STEP writing, which would become a standard for all subsequent programmable drum machines and step sequencer and has remained unchanged until now.

50 years later, NONO MODULAR with his Major Tom, introduces a small but fundamental modification to this standard, that allows for easily creating more complex and groovier rhythms without losing the ease and immediacy of the classic system, thus expanding the possibilities we have had so far with hardware sequencers.

MAJOR TOM presents itself as a classic 16-step CV/gate sequencer but also implements triplet steps in parallel (the outer orbits of the 16-step circle), making it the only hardware step sequencer to offer this possibility and, above all, in such an immediate way.

It is a 4-track Eurorack CV/gate sequencer (expandable up to 12 tracks with 2-channel expansions) with a focus on writing rhythmic and polyrhythmic parts and on treating the width, length, and fragmentation of the gate for each step.

All these features are extremely useful for creating more dynamic rhythms, easily creating burst effects, rolls, ratcheting, and for precise work on percussive synthesis in the Eurorack modular context (for example, working with ping/ring techniques with low-pass gates and filters of West Coast systems or stimulating delays and resonators).

A quantized CV for each track allows you to tune or modulate your patches.
Of course, the sequencer also allows you to work with drum modules and create classic melodic sequences like any other CV/gate sequencer.

ROUND COLOR DISPLAY
A large round display allows you to keep track of everything that happens. For clarity, each track has its own color (white, yellow, blue, red, and white and green for expansions).

There are very few submenus in this sequencer, which presents itself with a very analog and "one button, one function" philosophy that helps with orientation and provides great immediacy in live performances.

Underneath what you see directly with your eyes, there are only quantization and clock dividing parameters, sequence group saving banks that are saved directly on microSD (to facilitate export, management, and backup), and various copy/paste/freeze tricks that are essential for both fast programming and performance/variation.

EXPANSIONS
Each expansion adds two channels with all their respective controls and allows for expanding the sequencer tracks according to the need, up to 12 total channels tops, connecting by 4 expansions.

Expandability is not the only advantage of this structure because, in addition to expanding the available channels, it allows us to keep the project open and develop other types of expansions with different characteristics and different controls to meet other needs.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

• 4 CV/Gate tracks (expandable up to 12 with expansions)
• 16-step sequencer with the addition of triplet steps (total of 24 steps)
• 4 independent parameters per step, adjustable via dedicated button and encoder (3 for gate and 1 for CV)
• LEVEL (gate amplitude, from 0V to 10V)
• LENGTH (gate length, from a very short trigger of 1% of the gate to a full gate step)
• SPACER/FRAGMENTER (gate fragmentation up to 10 parts and application of dynamic masks to the impulse group, such as increasing, decreasing, linear, random, alternating, etc.)
• CV (Quantized voltage in different scales)

A large part of the module is dedicated to sequence controls in order to have direct and immediate contact and maximum playability.

3 performance controls and a colored button for each track:
• LARGE VAR SWITCH KNOB with 10 positions switch where you can save 10 different sequences instantly switchable for use as variations.
• LAST STEP SWITCH KNOB, allowing independent change of the LAST STEP of the individual track from 16 STEPS to 1, easily creating polyrhythms.
• SHIFT KNOB to finely delay the entire sequence independently from others.
• COLORED BUTTON, colored button to select the track to program. Other functions are associated with this button such as pattern copy/paste and track reset.

Additional features include:
• Encoder for sequence speed
• Start/Stop button and Reset button (general reset and individual track resets in combination with the colored track button)
• CLOCK OUT and RESET OUT
• CLOCK IN, RESET IN, and CV IN
• MAJOR TOM is 42HP, expander IS 14HP , DEPTH is 3,5cm
• MEMORY: hundreads and hundreads of “LIVE SCENE” can be saved and reorganized on SD (LIVE SCENE is the set of 10 patterns saved in the large knob of each of the tracks)

Yorick LFE marking and moving Favourite Patches on Prophet 10

video upload by Steve Hunt

"The Low Frequency Expander from Yorick Tech can now mark patches as Favourites, step backwards and forwards through Favourite patches, step through patches in a sound category, and step through just the Favourite patches in a category. It can also fetch the favourite patches from the synth, store them in the LFE as a SysEx file and then send them back to the synth in a block, rather than having them spread around different locations in the synth. A great way to organise your patches."

Noise/Drone Jam (in the style of) Luminiferous Aether!

video upload by Electronisounds Audio

"The 'Hardware Jams' Facebook Group is having a 'Secret Santa' event this year to celebrate the Holidays and another year of jamming with hardware! For those who signed up to participate, all names were put into a hat and drawn at random - to assign each jammer to perform a jam in the STYLE of another jammer!

I was assigned 'Luminiferous Aether' to create a jam in his style. He often does layered and textured jams with bits of eurorack, grooveboxes and guitars - and is often OUTSIDE in his jams as well.

I couldn't manage an outside jam, but I did manage to incorporate eurorack, a guitar pedal and a small element of the outside with my bamboo forest rainstorm atmos recording, and jungle-esque video overlay - Hahaha.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, JAMFAM!!

Forms - Novation Circuit Tracks Pack by Techtronix

video uploadS by Isotonik Studios

"Forms, takes a light from a different direction. Music that makes you want to move.

Garage music originated with it mainly being played on pirate radio, It was simply undeniable on dance floors because of its swing and syncopation.
It had a tendancy to naturally make people dance, and as an underground genre, it soon took its form and became massive in the 90's with artists like DJ EZ and the Artful Dodger.

Some of the best Garage music was on white label, Lost in time, these old tapes and records are hard to find.
Forms brings a big slice of this back to the Novation Circuit Tracks, right back to that innocent time when people were passionate about making good music, and bringing it to the masses. Forms leaves you wanting nothing more than time to create.

With a massive selection of 128 patches, 16 inspiring sessions and a percectly suited drum kit for Garage music

FORMS BONUS PERFOMANCE PADS

There are four perfomance pads on each page of project pages at the bottom

These go from green to red.
They are different speed kick drum build ups.
so the fist is a crash and kick. for a drop.
the second one is a 1/4 kick drum.
the next is a faster one, 1/8 twice the speed
and finally the last one is 16ths.
This gives you a way of switching between sesions with a little transition when playing live. It will also stay in sync with your swing and tempo from the project you are switching from. These are Called Performance Pads. and are exclusive to this pack!

To date there hasn't been a Garage pack on the Novation Circuit eco system. Forms not only puts that to bed, but lays a stamp on the 2 step Garage genre,
which is clearly here to stay

FORMS CONTENTS

64 samples
16 kicks
16 snares and claps
8 cymbal one shots
16 chord and synth stabs
8 vocals and more

CONTROL YOUR EFFECTS PEDALS VIA CV | ADDAC System - ADDAC309 CV to Expression

video upload by DANIELE

"ADDAC309 CV to Expression allows a simple and straightforward connection between your modular synth and effects pedals that features expression pedal TRS inputs!"

"ADDAC309 CV to Expression allows a simple and straight forward connection between modular and effect pedals that features expression pedal TRS inputs.

Instead of using an expression pedal into the effects pedal the user can use this module in between a CV source and the Effects pedal to be controlled.
This is a great way to control the available parame- ters on the effects pedals straight from a CV source.

ADDAC309 features 2 channels each with a CV Input with attenuator and a 1/4’ jack output.

This is a passive module, the power needed for operation is taken from the pedal power instead of the modular frame, this allows for perfect matching of the pedal’s operating voltage which can range from 3.3v to 9v."

MJ’s “Beat It” - Hidden Machine Gun Sound

video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"In this Video I’ll show you how I made the 'Machine Gun Sound' in MJ’s 'Beat It'. It’s kind of a hidden sound, but it serves an important purpose in the orchestration of the song to create tension and energy just before Eddie Van Halen’s iconic guitar solo. This is one of many examples of the nuances that can be found in the arrangements of the songs on the album.

We’ll also shine the spotlight on Thriller engineer Bruce Swedien’s ability to know when and how to use a sound like this and when to get it out of the picture to create space for other sounds. This concepts can be applied to any style of music you are creating.

I made the original sound using an ARP 2600 & Dr. Click but you can re-create this sound on your VST with less effort.

Groove Synthesis - 3rd Wave - Warm Tones

video upload by Scott McAuley Sounds

"Patches will be available at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop or http://www.synthsounds.co.uk

Definitely looking to be in the honeymoon period with this synth for a long time, I like to try all sorts when first programming on a new machine, from complex to relatively simple but lush sounds.

I am a firm believer that in the right context, less is more, select the best tone and filtering, add some nice dynamics, subtle mods and you can play for hours. I guess the piano, rhodes, acoustic guitar and so many instruments are just exactly that.

This to me has turned out to be one of those patches. no fancy frills, just warm , lush and very enjoyable to jam away with.

Enjoy!

Threetom Modular Doppio soft saturator and limiter : Digital piano noodles #1 (Lode)

Doppio soft saturator and limiter : Digital piano noodles #2 (Tom)

via Threetom Modular

"The Threetom Modular Doppio is a compact stereo amplifier, drive, and soft limiter module. Doppio helps complex and dynamic stereo sounds to find their place in a modular synthesizer context, where signals are hot, and headroom is extremely limited. Doppio does this by implementing a compact, yet flexible, soft-knee limiter. The limiter is specifically designed for eurorack levels and avoids the need for unnecessary make-up gain, resulting in a lower noise floor.

Doppio offers three different gain settings (x1, x5, x21), and three different ratios (linear, drive, and limit). In addition to this Doppio has gain and volume knobs for more precise control. Different combinations of these settings cater to applications like saturating complex stereo signals without turning them into mush, end-of-chain limiting, and boosting line level signals to eurorack level, while still retaining enough oomph to also saturate them nicely. Finding the right settings is made easy by DOPPIO’s unique coffee-bean-shaped indicator lights.

Even though Doppio’s architecture is stereo, that doesn’t mean it has no uses on mono signals: Either process two mono signals with identical settings, or chain the two channels to form a two-stage high-gain mono drive. Finally, it’s important to note that Doppio is DC-coupled and can also be used to process CV signals.

In summary: Doppio is to your signals what a double espresso is to you – it makes you bigger and bolder – and you know you’re hooked when the withdrawal symptoms kick in."
