SUBTLE TO SAVAGE! // ST Font by NANO Modules (Eurorack Stereo Multimode Filter & Saturating VCA)

video upload by DivKid

"Hello and welcome to this video on the ST Font Eurorack multimode, saturating, wild resonating filter demo! ST Font is made by NANO Modules and builds on their ‘liquid filter’ design from Font and makes it stereo and adds a load of new features. This demo goes from the raw sound and features through more basic patching, expanding things from mono into stereo, working with stereo and a variety of sources through to more advanced synthesis and modulation options. Patches all below, skip around as you like!"

"ST·FONT is a stereo liquid filter that takes the beloved core of our FONT module and expands it into a powerful stereo filtering tool.

With a dual filter core (one for each channel), it offers a massive liquid sound with smooth resonance, adding warmth and depth to any audio signal.

Dual-core Stereo Filtering
Independent filter cores for left and right channels with Low Pass, Band Pass, and High Pass modes, plus seamless crossfading between filter outputs.

Integrated Stereo VCA
Built-in stereo VCA with soft clipping, adding warmth and harmonic richness to your sound. From clean amplification to heavy saturation, enhancing tone before it reaches the filter stage.

Dynamic Resonance Modes
MILD keeps the resonance smooth and musical, ideal for classic filtering effects, while WILD pushes the resonance to its limits, delivering intense, aggressive sounds with heavy distortion that brings an extra edge to your signal.

Stereo Span Controls
Dedicated FREQ Span, RES Span, and MODE Span knobs allow you to create a wide, immersive stereo field by adjusting the spread of Frequency, Resonance and Mode across both channels."

Bloop Group - New Synth Meet in Dublin City, IE

This one is in via myVolts

"Bloop Group is an evening for electronic musicians + producers of all levels - from the mildly curious to leathery old pros - to hang out, test out kit, and make music, culminating in a structured collaborative jam where everyone gets involved.

There’ll be a mixing desk + monitors, and kit to play with by myVolts / Elektron / Korg / Dreadbox / Roland / Chase Bliss / PlayFader / Sismo + more, plus whatever kit attendees bring on the night.

Inspired by Bristol’s Bleep Klub, Bloop Group is less about the gear, and more about having fun and making music together, in a low-stress, playful environment.

Bloop Group #01 takes place in Dublin City, IE, Friday 29th Nov from 6.30pm to 9.30pm and is brought to you by Caroline from myVolts and Gary dj_doo_dat.

We hope to make this a monthly event, so reach out to Caroline if you wanna get involved!"

"RANDOM SOURCE SERGE VC RESONANT EQUALIZER (VCRESEQ)

Finally available after popular demand, the Serge Modular VC Resonant Equalizer by Random*Source packages the beloved Serge RESEQ into an expanded format with voltage control over each of the 10 bands. With the exception of the top and bottom bands, the Resonant EQ has garnered a reputation for its universally musical characteristics, thanks to most bands being spaced apart by Major 7ths rather than perfect octaves. This means that multiple bands won't overly resonate with the frequency contents of arbitrary signal inputs, leading to more versatility and usefulness on a variety of sounds.

Each band can boost or cut its corresponding frequencies by up to 12dB, and the CV control capabilities of this version make it more dynamic and magical than ever. Attenuverters for each allow you to define how much a control voltage will positively or negatively affect that band. Two inputs allow you to process multiple signals simultaneously without an external mixer, while a Feedback control allows you to introduce chaos and instability for a variety of delightful chirps, squelches, and squeals. In addition to dual main mix outputs, two Combination outputs give you some additional flexibility in routing and patching—though keep in mind that this module is designed for musicality and not mixing perfection, as moving any band will affect both outputs. Should you have the space to welcome it into your modular rack, the VCRESEQ would be a phenomenal addition to your Eurorack system and greatly expanding your sonic palette.

SERGE VC RESONANT EQUALIZER (VCRESEQ) FEATURES

Expanded version of the classic Serge Resonant EQ
Most bands spaced apart by Major 7ths
12dB of boost or cut available per band
CV inputs and attenuverters for each band
Two input channels

LARIX-ELEKTRO MULT - EURORACK Configurable MULTIPLE

video upload by LARIX ELEKTRO

"New module(s)!
A very simple MULTIPLE module, 2HP.
But all pin are available at the back.
to configure as you want (jumpers)
to connect something else (insert cable)

Two versions:
8 jack
6 jack + 2 switches

Can be used to extend the 4TOMS or the UNDULA modules
... or for circuit bending/DIY

see more:
https://www.larix-elektro.com/"

Improve your TOMS

video upload by LARIX ELEKTRO

"The 4TOMS (yes 4 toms) has plenty of CV capabilities. But only one CV input per voice (it needs place !)
With the MULTIPLE, you can have access to all the CV available."

Improve your DUAL UNDULA OSCILLATOR

video upload by LARIX ELEKTRO

"In this video, we will see what we can add, and with which modules."

via LARIX-ELEKTRO

"WHAT'S THAT THING ?

This is a configurable multiple module.
There are two versions: 8 jacks, or 2 switches + 6 jacks.
Of course, the package include only one module, not the two versions !

On the back, for each jack:
- Access to the tip of the connected jack cable.
- Access to the Normaled pin.
With the jumper, it's possible to select which one are connected to the internal bus, to connect multiple jacks together like classical multiple modules.

One more jumper to connect the internal bus of the 1 to 4 jacks with the internal bus of the 5 to 8 jacks.

The version with switches has three pins on the back for each switches.

The module can also be used as an extension to LE modules with hidden functionnalities:
Like the 4TOMS or the DUAL UNDULA OSCILLATOR.

The module is also useful for all modules with access point at the back, or to hack/modify modules.

Cables, to use the module as an extension, are not provided with the module."

Ableton Live Presets: Lo-Fi Noisy Bass, Pad, Synth Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

"Ableton Live - Space Lost is a collection of 50 presets that includes: 7 Arps, 3 Bells, 11 Basses, 6 Leads, 13 Pads, 4 Plucks, 6 Synths.

📻 This bank of presets is inspired by space, lo-fi, and retro sound, adapted to modern times. Powerful, deep basses and floating pads will help you create unique compositions suitable for both lo-fi genres and more commercial projects with electronic, pop, and rock vibes.
Many presets feature a more universal character while still retaining their distinct individuality.

📦 Get this soundset: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/able...
👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

🎹 The presets are presented in the Instrument Rack format, which combines synths and effects in a single device. Each Instrument Rack has 8 Macros that make it easy to develop timbre and adjust key parameters.

🎛 The macros are a significant part of the soundset. They can change tone, stereo width, modulation depth and rate, noise level, distortion, detuning, space/echo/reverb, effects mix, envelope parameters, and others.
You may control them via MIDI controller like Push, use them for automation, or map the macros to Ableton modulators like LFO, Shaper, and others.

For the soundset, we utilized only Ableton Suite's built-in instruments and effects. No external installations, such as M4L devices or samples, are required.

The soundset is suitable for many genres: ambient, electronica, IDM, trip-hop, lounge, downtempo, pop, chill out, new age, cinematic, trance, deep, progressive, techno, retrowave, synthwave, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, dub and others.
