New Eurorack Modules Coming From Doepfer


Doepfer will be showcasing the above new modules at SUPERBOOTH25. Details on each follow.
Check with dealers on the right for upcoming availability.



Module A-119-2 is kind of a dual version of module A-119 without envelope follower. Instead two amplifiers are available and the module width is 4 HP only.

The module contains two amplifiers with separately adjustable amplification levels. Each channel is equipped with an overload display. The module can be used also for stereo signals, e.g. the stereo output of a smartphone.

Controls and displays:

Level 1/2: manual control of the amplification in the range 0 - about 45.

Overload 1/2: overload LED, begins to light up for output levels beyond about 10Vpp (+/-5V)

In 1: audio input 1 (monophonic or stereophonic, see technical details)

In 2: audio input 2 (monophonic)

Out 1/2: audio output (monophonic)

Technical details:

for higher amplifications the two amplifiers can be daisy-chained

normalling options: the signal applied to socket In 1 can be normalled to socket In 2 in different ways by means of a jumper on the pc board:

socket In 1 is connected via a mono patch cable (standard patch cable) to a monophonic signal and this signal is normalled to socket In 2 (i.e. the same input signal for both sub-units): jumper on pin header JP2 in upper position

socket In 1 is connected via a 3.5 mm stereo TRS cable to a stereophonic signal and the second channel of the stereo signal is normalled to socket In 2: jumper on pin header JP2 in lower position

no normalling: jumper is removed from pin header JP2

all inputs and outputs are DC coupled. Thus the module can be used also for the amplifications of control voltages.

Roland Juno-6 versus Roland JX-3P | Comparison


video upload by MIDERA

"Comparing the Juno-6 to the JX-3P. Some of this felt a little unfair because I was using the Juno 6 with sub and both oscillators active, so the 3P sounded a little anemic at times. I also noticed at times the JX-3P appeared quieter. I tried to rectify this, but know that going in it may feel slightly biased. I made this video TWO YEARS AGO and actually forgot until today that I had made it, sitting 'unlisted' in YouTube.

video upload by batchas

"Synton Fenix II, III, IId with Scrotum Lab ex0ex.
Kind of vowel sounds = I send a sawtooth from Fenix II oscillator into the ex0ex filter input and I send the ex0ex output into the ring modulator of Fenix IId. I send a sinewave into the other ring mod input. Direct outs from Fenix(es) sent to mixer. No ext. effect added."

Dual LeCaine Synth Overlay for EaganMatrix Instruments and Electra One MK2.


video upload by EaganMatrix Programming

"I realized it would not take that much work to take the Dual Wavebank Synth Overlay for EaganMatrix-based instruments that lets you manipulate Saw, Square and Triangle configured waves and turn it into a Le Caine Synth Overlay (the newer additive Wavebank wave option that lets you manipulate the amplitudes of six Square waves (X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X and 8X frequencies). Since the GUI for this is totally different in terms of configuring the bank I created a new Overlay. I expect the new Electra One firmware to be released very soon and hopefully Osmose firmware that will support Overlays very soon as well. I'll release the overlays I have for Beta testing when formal notice of the firmware required to run them is announced."

Arpeggio - the Arpeggiator Overlay Guide


video upload by Tangible Instruments

"This video explains in detail how to use Arpeggio's Arpeggiator Overlay. The Arpeggiator Overlay gives you an insane amount of control over custom arp styles. Start by mixing and matching any two of the base note orders (or just pick one): Up, Down, Sequence, Reverse, and Random. Then apply and combine separate modifiers to each like Inside Out, Skip Forward, Alternating First, Zig Zag, and more. Each arp style can also have an Arpeggiator Rhythm of up to 16-steps."

Infinite Machinery Demo by Todd Barton


video upload by Todd Barton

"Just got turned onto these cool modules from Infinite Machinery which is located here in my little town. Really digging them. Enjoy these brief test drives."

Todd Barton's Patreon: / synthtodd




The Infinite Machinery Hexa VCA is a 6 channel VCA with DC coupling and a unique normalization function. All in 12 HP

Signal inputs are DC coupled.
CV input response, 0 to +5V

Maximum amplification is unity gain, or 1.

Channels with no CV input will have CV normalized
to the CV of the channel above. This cascading of CV
values is defined in two groups, channels 1 - 3 and 4 - 6.

For example: If CV is patched to channel 1 and no CV
patched into channels 2 & 3 - Channels 2 & 3 will
follow the CV of channel 1.

Patch CV into channel 2 and nothing into channel 3
then channel 3 will follow the CV of channel 2.
The same hold true for channels 4 - 6, with 4 being
the start of the CV cascade.

Module depth - 34mm

Current draw - 40mA +-

Analogue Solutions AS500-SEQ | 64-Step Sequencer with Fusebox X and ARP Omni


video upload by rezfilter

"The AS500-SEQ 64-step analogue sequencer is pulling double duty here — clocking the Fusebox X and modulating the filter on a vintage ARP Omni. No notes are being sequenced — the AS500-SEQ is used strictly for modulation and clock duties.

The Omni is played live by hand, and the Fusebox X bass pitch is manually triggered live using the Interval Generator (IG).

Captured live and recorded live — no MIDI.

In this setup: the AS500-SEQ handles clock and filter modulation, the Fusebox X brings the synth tone, and the ARP Omni delivers the vintage textures."

Make Noise Introduces the Jumbler


video upload by MAKEN0ISE

Press release follows:


Make Noise is proud to announce Jumbler!!

"With Jumbler..., we jumble one or we jumble many."

Jumbler is a six by six channel analog signal combiner and distributor for the New Universal Synthesizer System or any Eurorack modular synthesizer. Jumble is one of the New Universal Synthesizer System concepts where the routings of a patch could be re-configured, or jumbled, instantly via voltage control to produce variations on a theme.

Jumbler gives you powerful two-parameter access to the rearrangement of both origins and destinations for up to six modular signals. One to six inputs are routed to one to six outputs, in an order determined by the Rotate control, and combination determined by the Radiate control. Unlike a simple switch module, Jumbler’s analog VCA-based design is specially geared for smooth transitions and hybrid signals.

Jumbler is a great module for hybrid control voltage mashing, complex waveform mixing, on-the-fly effects re-routing, gate and clock re-combinations and more. Some folks have said it is like patching a stack of 6 RxMx circuits.

Mix and Match up to six signals for up to six destinations
Easy to use as a voltage controlled mixer or continuously crossfading switch
Dynamically blend waveforms from a single or multiple oscillators
Create hybrid rhythms with gate or clock sources
Change up effects routings on the fly
Create feedback and matrix-mixer patches
All analog design featuring 36 VCAs
You’ve done some patchin’... now it is time to try some jumblin’...

Width: 10hp
Max Depth (incl. power cable): 43 mm
Power:
178mA@ +12V

FM Synthesis - A Practical Guide - Part 1


video upload by ChrisLody

"Here's something I've been meaning to get round to starting for ages, a practical guide to FM synthesis. In my experience FM tutorials usually over explain all the wrong things and rarely get as far as the important things like the predictable way operator ratios change the waveform and frequency responses. So I've tried to approach things from an entirely practical view point showing you how to make saw, square, noise etc with filter like responses.

Here's chipsynth MD (from which I stole a diagram :) https://www.plogue.com/products/chips...

The Seventh of Four


video upload by davidryle

"A new project idea to use the synthesizers.com Q170 MIDI GATES module to affect broad changes to the composition within the modular system.

The Q170 has eight output jacks for sending 5V gate or trigger voltages to the modular system. I used my DAW (Cubase) to construct timings for various parts of the modular.

The first four outs were used as pulse gates for the Delptronics and TipTop drum modules. The Kick, Snare and Open and Closed HiHats.
The fifth out is to the Q169 vco's AMP input. That vco is used for the bass line so controlling the on-board vca will mute or enable the voice.
The sixth out was to enable the Dove D900 sequencer to run/stop. The sequencer is feeding pitch voltage to the Synthetic Sound Labs Woven Spirits (MI Plaits). This is the chord pad sound. I used the DAW to pulse the gate info when I wanted the sequencer to reset at certain parts.
The seventh out was to send a continuous gate to the STG Soundlabs Time Buffer. The Time Buffer is receiving a sync-bus 24 ppq clock and run signal. I have a panel access to these with jack inputs so I sent the 5V gate to the RUN input. This allowed me to use this to start and stop all sequencer motion from the DAW.
The eighth out is to a Lower West Side Studios triple switch. This switch is used to add an offset voltage to the Woven Spirits Harmonic control.
The other fun part was playing the LWSS triple attenuator. I had three parts run through the module. The pair of STG VMS sequences were percussive background parts switched in and out as needed. The third part was a pulse version of the pad sound.

The Matrix duet in the mid section was clocked from the STG Time Divider module. Both Matrix were set with very closely aligned slider settings but the "Z" sliders were offset for variety. They sent pitch voltage to the TZ-VCO's from SSL. The duet were sent through the STG Post Lawsuit Filter and an Empress reverb/delay pedal.

Other outboard effects were the Meris Hedra for the bass line and the EMX Grand Canyon for the steady pad sound."
