3am - Damp Grid


video upload by justin3am

"Another piece centered around shift registers. This time used as sound sources and as part of the visuals. All of the noisy percussion sounds come from the Dual Digital Shift Register (kinda Rungler-like patch) and Cascading Shift Register (used as and LFSR)."

New BugBrand Drive VCA & Sequence Modules



Interesting side note: BugBrand is entering their 17th year this year, and so is MATRIXSYNTH. This verson of MATRIXSYNTH that is. The original launched in 97. That aside, the new modules:

via BugBrand

The Drive VCA combines most of the features of the Dual Amplifier module into a single space.

It can either be run in Clean (Cln) mode as a regular VCA or switched to a sweepable mix between Zener-Diode Saturation or harmonic Wave-Folding via the Type control.

Control level is a sum of the Initial (Manual) control combined with the two CV inputs – one has a depth control with polarity & mute switch, while the 2nd is full-range unattenuated.

The response can be swept from Exponential to Linear, altering how the VCA responds to control signals.

The VCA is DC-coupled with gain up to unity.



The Sequence module is a powerful sequencing & clocking module with some interestingly different functions that take it away from regular binary approaches. The core builds around a binary logic counter chip, with clocking, reset & direction input options, while on the eight output steps it offers two gate busses and a voltage output with variable Up/Down glide. The rear of the module features several expansion headers allowing it to tie ‘behind the scenes’ to other clocking modules to create an integrated sequencing system.

Have a check of the block diagram image above. Note that control inputs pass through comparators (threshold c.+1V) so can work with almost any signal.

Clocking – the onboard Clock Oscillator goes from approx 0.65Hz/40BPM up to c.140Hz (8400BPM!). The main clock source is switchable between Internal (Clock Osc) or External source, and can clock fine at audio rates (tested up to 20kHz!).

The Clock Output is switchable between Internal or Main – allowing you to send out the Clock Osc & divide it before sending it back in to the External Clocking input (thanks Palle for that suggestion!). The Main option for this switch can also be changed to output the Lengthened clock pulse via a rear header (MAIN_CLK_OUT) which is set to CLK as standard.

BugBrand 2Frame Modular System

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


via this auction

Entire system was purchased new direct from BugBrand in December 2021. Power supply and large batch of Pomona banana leads is included. The three modules on the lower row to the left were built within the past year by MW user soup. Flawless builds, each function perfectly. SMOOTH OPERATOR is a Serge SSG adaptation without the 'coupler' circuit. CV WRANGLER is an adaptation of Mutable Instruments Kinks. ATTENUVERTERS is an adaptation of Mutable Instruments Shades. Not intending on parting out; this is a complete, versatile and standalone system. Feel free to ask any questions.
