Melbourne Instruments Nina Round-Robin Experiment #1

video upload by Laboratory 0

"How close can the Nina get to the Vermona Perfourmer? Distributing MIDI notes evenly across three layers on the Nina, each with slight variations in filter and envelope settings. The track, originally made with the Perfourmer (ID: Samuel Yang - Skyward Bound), is now played on the Nina, and I’m amazed by how closely it replicates the original, with its round-robin arps.

Arps coming from Nina, everything else was pre-recorded / taken from the original track."

SAMPLE PACK // HEXDRUMS // LØSTLVLS (LINK IN DESCRIPTION)


video upload by LØSTLVLS

"Link to Preview/Purchase:



Over 300 one-shot samples, 20 loops, nine sample chains and a bespoke Ableton Live instrument rack - this is my love-letter to the Erica Synths x Hexinverter HexDrums!

The HexDrums is a modern hybrid analogue drum machine released by Latvian powerhouse Erica Synths - the analogue circuits are derived from the Mutant Drums eurorack modules created by Canadian sonic maestros Hexinverter, while Erica Synths provided a version of their digital Cymbals module for maximum sonic flexibility.

The HexDrums is a punchy and performative drum machine, representing a vintage soul with modern trimmings. This pack is my attempt to squeeze every last drop of variety from each voice, allowing a sampler to act as a more flexible and economical doppelgänger for the hardware.

One-Shots (304):
Recorded through high-quality preamps and encoded in 24-bit 48kHz, these individually-crafted and diverse sounds push the entire sonic potential of the device, grouped by voice type into folders:

Bass Drum 1 (BD1)
Bass Drum 2 (BD2)
Machine (MC)
Snare Drum (SD)
Clap (CP)
Hi-Hats (HH)
Rimshot (RS)
Clave (CL)
Crash (CR)
Ride Cymbal (RC)

Loops (20):
A selection of click-free loops carefully recorded from the hardware through high-quality preamps, and encoded in 24-bit 48kHz and organised by BPM.

Sample Chains (9):
All one-shot samples of each type contained within separate files and equally-spaced designed to efficiently work as a single ‘track’ of any sampler with a slice function but with the Elektron Octatrack in mind (16-bit 44.1kHz). Octatrack users can simply transfer each chain and corresponding (.ot) data file onto their CF cards for instant pre-sliced results.

Ableton Live Selector Kit (designed with Ableton Live 12 Suite):
Designed to capture the analogue heart of the machine, this Ableton Live project houses a custom drum rack containing all the variants of the one-shots from each kit type, selectable with a macro knob and set to cycle through the different samples of each sound type, as well as individual voice settings, presets for each voice and overall kit settings including compression and EQ.

Audio Formats:
Sample Chains: 16-Bit // 44.1kHz WAV
Everything Else: 24-Bit // 48kHz WAV

This pack aims to capture every nook and cranny of this device - each individual sound recorded with attention-to-detail and organised in a logical fashion. Enjoy!"

Zaturn Zero: Draw Waves V2


video upload by gotharman

"In the forthcoming Zaturn Zero update, it will be possible to design Draw Waves by turning knobs!
These Draw Waves can have up to 8 segments.
In this video, I will show the Draw Waves used as an LFO which controls the filter cutoff of VCF7, used as a sequencer, and used with the Draw Wave Oscillators.

Some time stamps:
0:00 Draw Wave LFO modulating the filter cutoff of VCF7
7:50 Draw Wave As Sequencer
11:45 Draw Wave Oscillator

W. PROTEIN - SEQUENCING the WAVE/TABLES


video upload by Alba Ecstasy

"In this video I am passing through (almost!) all waveforms (I’m leaving the last waves for you!), combining them for both oscillators.

This 20 minutes tables and waves variations is almost an authentic Berlin School track, I could only bring some pads and percussions and the jos is done!
And I think this little box will become my main sequence voice!

The sound is crystal clear (some artefacts (I thinks they’re normal for wavetable synths) can be heard, as some processing clicks and pops when changing some parameters - my Blofeld had it too - but all these may also come from a very fast attack and from some wavetables tweaking).
If I'm not changing the tables and the waves, the sound is just fine!
Some distortion may appear because of the output level. Sorry about that!

Both delay and reverb are internal, so as the sequence too (32 steps)."

Soundmachines NS1 Nanosynth Mini Modular Synthesizer and NS1 Exmperimenters Kit

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this eBay listing

"The NS1nanosynth synthesizer is an handeld 220x85mm analog modular synthesizer coupled with an Arduino Leonardo platform.

Power Supply is 5v/160mA either from the USB micro connector or the classic 5.5mm barrel jack, central positive. If you use use both concurrently, power will be drawn from the barrel jack.

Feeding the NS1 with more than a regulated 5V will result in immediately destruction of most part of the product (i.e. holy smokes + swears).

On board the synth, +12 and -12 voltages, necessary for the oscillator and the filter, are generated through a DC/DC module.

All CV control signals are 0-5V unipolar. Oscillator waveforms outputs are equally 0-5V to be able to use the on board modules to mix cv and audio signals without problems (see the ‘waveshaping’ video for an example of this)."

You can find a demo of the NS1 here.

Dungeon Synth on Digitone II - Oggol's Sigth


video upload by Silent Tower

"I'm continuing my experiments with sound. And every time I find inspiration in plastiboo books. Such potential is hidden in them. Recently, I also got 'GodHusk' in addition to 'Vermis I' and 'Vermis II'. Although it's not as popular, it's also a masterpiece, and I'm sure I'll use it in the future to find inspiration.

MARS Tube Synthesizer vs Ultrarare Formanta P432 VST Plugin


video upload by Eternal Engine EMI

"Our friends from UltraRare ( https://ultrarare.su ) have created a cool plugin: a VST version of the Soviet Formanta P432 synthesizer.
The plugin is a rompler with sounds from this Soviet synthesizer. One of the features of the software version is the ADSR envelope, which expands the instrument's sonic capabilities. The sound bank is controlled via MIDI, allowing users to freely switch between presets within a single part.
There's a lot more interesting stuff on the UltraRare page: https://ultrarare.su/?post_type=product"

Designing and troubleshooting a module | Instruō - ceithir


video upload by Instruō

"Hello and welcome!

👉 • Instruō - ceithir | Project Overview
(Here is an introduction to the ceithir with more detailed project background and sound examples.)

In 2015/16 Instruō began as a video project. Specifically a time-lapse of me designing the original troika module.
Ten years later, I’ve returned to that idea with ceithir, a winter holiday project I designed with video documentation in mind.

This video shows the process of ceithir's initial prototype design.
The full module interface was the first part of the process. That stage has its own video feature:
• Designing a Eurorack Module interface | In...

In this first hardware iteration I focussed on the core functionality of a single channel version of the filter. The majority of the circuit was tried and tested in the I-ō47 module. But I made several additions to the design for ceithir:
Temperature compensation of the core
Dedicated oscillator mode with stable peak amplitude
Stereo output utilising modulated phase shift to create discreet L/R
Additional mode morphing to incorporate band-pass response

I forged ahead with a hardware design where priority was not placed on manufacturability of the prototype. It is a two board layout requiring circuitry distributed between two parallel PCBs. This used many header connectors but provided a large "canvas" to lay out all elements of the circuitry in a sectional way that allowed for ease of navigation when it inevitably came to troubleshooting and fixing mistakes/making refinements.

Yorick LFE firmware Option Pack extra features


video upload by Steve Hunt

"This is an old video I made but never got round to publishing as it was so bad! I've had a few requests about the Option pack, so I'll let this loose now...

This is an add-on firmware upgrade for the Low Frequency Expander for £50. You can see in the Info menu if your LFE has the OP or not.
The Option Pack gives access to additional firmware features:
1. Panel mode that allows the Env/Seq’s knobs to be used to control any device that responds to midi CCs. See Envelope section.
2. An Internal Modulation Matrix lets you set up 3 slots for modulating 29 of the LFE’s internal parameters. 3. A 4th LFO which can be used as a Multiplier for modulating the Amount of the Env/Seq and other LFOs, and can be used as a source to modulate the 29 Destinations in the Internal Modulation Matrix.
4. Fade out time function for LFOs 1 & 2.
5. Polyphonic Aftertouch Destination allowing polyphonic modulation of several synths.
6. Ability to learn modulation Destinations by turning controls on the synth. Briefly hold the appropriate Mult and Dest buttons together to get into listening mode and the Destination is shown as ??????? Now turn a control/button on the synth and the Destination will change to the name of the control you moved."
