Unplanned Modular Noodle July 22 2022

video upload by John L Rice

"The lead sound is a combination of a @mellotronfactory M4000D and @yamahasynths_official FS1R. Modules used: @synthesistechnology MOTM-300 VCOs, MOTM-650 MIDI to CV (for transposing the sequencer only), and E102 Quad Temporal Shifter, @moonmodularhq 517 VCFs and 569 sequencer, Oakley Dual VCAs, @cluboftheknobs_synthesizer C911P poly ADSR and C969 Euclidean clock/divider, and Modcan 55B quantizers. Effects used were @strymonengineering BigSky and Timeline pedals and a @lexicon_pro MX400.

Club Of The Knobs C911P poly EG

video upload by John L Rice

"This is the second test actually, the first one I posted on Instagram Reels and you can see the module in that one. I later added to that patch with a Moon 517 VCF on each voice, I added glide on the MOTM-650 MIDI-CV, and added in a little Mellotron M4000D underneath the mix a bit . . . and this is the result."

The C911P is a set of 5 envelope generators with completely independent channels. Each envelope has its own GATE-IN and ADSR-OUT and can be gated anytime. The four controls "Attack", "Decay" "Sustain" and "Release" control all 5 envelopes in common and makes it ideal for the use in polyphonic systems such as the C950 POLYCLAVIER. Each parameter can also be controlled by a voltage between 0 - 5V and makes the C911P programmable. Another nice thing is the feature that C911P's can be cascaded. Simply use a stereo 1/4 inch cable and connect the "Digital link OUT" to the "Digital link IN". This link however is NO MIDI but rather a high speed connection between multiple units. This new version has both, a positive and a negative Envelope Output which enables the simultaneous control of a low pass filter and a high pass filter. The "fire ALL' is a button for testing the unit.

The Forgotten Life Of Spliced Noodles

video upload by John L Rice

"A sort of "cutting room floor" video for fun. :-)

The sequence was basically done with a Moon Modular 569 sequencer and a Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Magnus VCO/voice module. I think there was an Oakley Flanger module and Club Of The Knobs Phase Processor modules used and probably other modules but the patch is no longer up and I can't remember. The soloing and chords were from a Yamaha FS1R and Roland Integra7 using Roland A-88 and A-49 keyboards.

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

via this auction

"This gigantic system was custom-built for a synth aficionado here in Los Angeles. This is one of the largest analog modular synths in existence, with over 140 modules. It truly is unmatched in potential and sound creation power. In addition to the usual suspects you would find in a system like this, this one has several sequencers, MIDI to CV converters, a vocoder, lag processors, analog delays, reverbs, and a panoply of esoteric and obscure processing that has never been offered before, for the master synthesist. A complete list of modules will be listed shortly. The last few pics are with the cool LED strips turned on."

"CLUB OF THE KNOBS - Modular Analogue Synthesizer wishes you a HAPPY 2021"

New Club of the Knobs C911A/M DUAL TRIGGER DELAY & C960E CHANNEL EXTENDER

"The module adds an additional channel to the C960 sequencer. This extension runs directly parallel to the C960 controller.

8 dials with a range of 2V or 4V, adjustable via the enlightened SCALE switch.

GATE SELECT: Selection either from the C960 or from the internal quantizer.

2 voltage outputs are available.

Direct analog or via internal quantizer in semitone steps over the 'SCALE' range."

"The C911A/M DUAL TRIGGER DELAY is designed to be used with 2 or more C911 Envelope Generators. It provides one or two time delays on an input voltage trigger signal (bound for the activation of an envelope voltage trigger). Three different modes of operation are available via the coupling mode switch.

OFF: Delays are activated independently through individual voltage trigger inputs.

PARALLEL: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates timing circuit on both simultaneously.

SERIES: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates top timing circuit, then triggers second upon activation of first."

These in via John L Rice.
