Chainsaw Symphony - Acid Rain Chainsaw meets Instruō Harmonaig

Published on Dec 12, 2019 Precarious333 Music

"Wow, a match made in heaven. Never thought I'd get such beautiful harmonies so easily on modular. Just received Acid Rain Technology Chainsaw today. This is the first patch. Chainsaw is an amazingly powerful 4hp module capable of producing 3 voices of 7 detuned waves. I'm already in love with this thing. Coupled with Harmonaig, which produces chords, and I'm in heaven.

Recorded as a stereo track into Ableton. EQ to tame the lows and a little compression.

Signal path is three pitch CVs from Harmonaig into Chainsaw. Chainsaw stereo out into two VCAs of Erogenous Tones VC8 controlled by envelopes from Erogenous Tones RADAR, stereo signal into Qu-Bit Electronix Prism (as a stereo filter with no resonance) opened by another RADAR ENV, into Endorphin.es Milky Way's creamy big reverb. Very simple patch."

Acid Rain Technology Chainsaw // A stereo 21 oscillator swarm in 4HP (Eurorack demo)

"Here we have the 4HP wide 21 oscillator stereo oscillator - Chainsaw from Acid Rain Technology. This is 3 voices of 7 oscillators each that are spread across the stereo image with controls for detune and blending between saw and square waves. Huge super saws and super squares are easy to fine tune and tuning is simple with an elegant encoder for coarse semitone tuning and then a button press for fine tune. It's a simple to use module that just pushed my enjoyment of making music and patches so there's lots of examples in the video. As always skip around with the timing index and sections listed below.

"It was a pleasure to meet Acid Rain Technology and hear about their Switchblade utility module that switches, mutes and mixes Eurorack signals. The new Chainsaw, Jackhammer & Navigator offer more CV utilities, supersaws and super pulses and Simmons style drum synthesis modules all to come later this year."
