Chill Eurorack Techno Jam

video upload by Ghost In Translation

"This is a more chill jam, I used Drone for some pads and then some DS1 modules for all other sounds, all synthesized."

#chilltechno #technojam #ambient

Featuring the Doepfer A-15701 8x16 Trigger Matrix.

What the h_ll is a PLL? Digging in to the Doepfer A-196

video upload by Sound + Voltage

"This time we're diving deep - perhaps too deep - into the mysteries of the Phase-Locked Loop, which Doepfer improbably made a Eurorack module for. So if you want to learn what that loop is and why you'd want to lock it, this is for you. All four of you.

No AI content, though I do use it for research.

Timeline:

00:00 - Intro
01:42 - What PLLs do
03:05 - How they do it
08:47 - How the 'over the radio' effect works
10:51 - Building a PLL out of spare parts
13:31 - PLL as a frequency multiplier
19:36 - Lots of stuff to try

Patch notes: Make your audio sound like an FM broadcast with a PLL

video upload by Sound + Voltage

"Apologies for the long absence, but I'm back - this time with a patch I've been trying to make work for years: the effect of audio coming over the radio.

It was a complete surprise that this worked, I was just playing around with a phase-locked loop module. I didn't think this would end up being a video about FM at all, but when I stumbled on it, I had to share.

Modules in use: Antumbra Fade, Radio Music, Cap'n Big-O VCO, Doepfer A-196 PLL, Steady State Fate's Quantum Rainbow 2, and Void Modular Hexagram.

Doepfer DARK ENERGY I Analog Monophonic Synthesizer

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

via this eBay listing

"Dark Energy is a monophonic stand-alone synthesizer with USB and Midi interface. The sound generation and all modulation sources are 100% analog, only the USB/Midi interface contains digital components. Dark Energy is built into a rugged black metal case with wooden side plates. High quality potentiometers with metal shafts are used and each potentiometer is fixed to the case (no wobbly shafts and knobs). The distance between the controls is a bit wider compared to A-100 modules and knobs with vintage look are used."

Doepfer Chaotic Patch A-112 Sampler / Wavetable Module!

video upload by Doepfer Musikelektronik GmbH

"Chaotic patch with the A-112 sampler!🪩🤸‍♀️

In this patch the A-112 is used as a lofi effect in the feedback loop of the A-119 Spring Reverb. All sounds are out of the system!
The bassline is a combination of the A-110-2 Basic VCO and the A-124 Wasp Filter. The A-188-1 BBD is used as a Karplus-Strong synthesizer.

The Age Of Eurorack: An Interview With Dieter Doepfer

"Few people have shaped the contemporary landscape of electronic musical instruments as profoundly as Dieter Doepfer, the German engineer whose A-100 system effectively established the Eurorack format in the mid-1990s and helped bring modular synthesis into widespread use. Maintaining his passion for music throughout his physics studies, Dieter’s path led him from repairing band equipment and building DIY effects to becoming a household name for anyone immersed in analog synthesis over the last three decades. To his own continued surprise, he helped lay the foundation for a community-driven ecosystem that now spans thousands of modules and hundreds of manufacturers worldwide."

You'll find the full interview at Perfect Circuit here.

Tech Talk: Vera Grace - How Modular Gear Shapes Her Hypnotic Techno Sound (Electronic Beats TV)

video upload by Telekom Electronic Beats TV

"For this Electronic Beats Tech Talk, we visited Dutch DJ and producer Vera Grace at her home in Amsterdam. With a background from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, she has developed a distinct techno identity rooted in experimental sound design, modular exploration, and hypnotic rhythms that bend your sense of time. Her dive into modular synthesis reshaped her creative process, leading to a fully live analog setup she now brings to the stage. Shifting fluidly between broken beats, ambient explorations, psychedelic textures, and driving 4/4 energy, Vera continues to push her sound forward while staying connected to techno’s foundations."

Dieter Doepfer explains the 3D Joystick

video upload by Doepfer Musikelektronik GmbH

"Dieter Doepfer explains the 3D Joystick"

The A-174-4 made its first appearance on the site back in 2020. The following are some pics and details via https://doepfer.de/a1744.htm.



"Module A-174-4 generates several control voltages and a gate signal controlled by a spring-loaded X/Y cross potentiometer (so-called joy stick). The control voltages for X and Y are controlled by the X and Y position of the joystick in the usual way. The third control voltage Z is controlled by the rotation of the spring-loaded joystick knob. The gate signal is generated by a button at the center/top of the joystick knob. As an additional feature four control voltages are generated that are assigned to the quadrants of the Cartesian coordinate system. These quadrant voltages are derived from the X and Y voltages by means of a special algorithm.

For each joystick function the non-inverted signal (X, Y, Z) as well as the inverted signal (-X, -Y, -Z) is available. The generic joystick control voltages are bipolar and range from typ. -5V (lowest position) via 0V (center position) to typ. +5V (highest position). By means of the Offset controls OX, OY and OZ a variable voltage of up to 5V can be added to the generic voltages. That way it's possible that the X, Y and Z outputs become pure positive (0...+10V instead of -5V...+5V). That's necessary if e.g. VCAs have to be controlled, because VCAs require a pure positive control voltage. The offset voltages can be adjusted by means of three small potentiometers. When the control in question is fully CCW no offset is added and the "pure" control voltages X, -X, Y, -Y, Z and -Z without offset are generated. As soon as the offset control in question is moved clockwise up to +5V are added to the voltage in question. The offset voltages are also added to the inverting outputs. With max. offset the range of an inverted output becomes also pure positive (+10V...0V instead of +5V...-5V). These six voltages are output at the sockets "X+OX", "-X+OX", "Y+OY", "-Y+OY", "Z+OZ" and "-Z+OZ". Each of these outputs is equipped with a dual color LED (red/yellow) that displays the present voltage and allows to distinguish between positive (red) and negative (yellow) voltages.

Doepfer A-188-9 High Speed VCO - Audio Demo

video upload by Doepfer Musikelektronik GmbH

"Over the last month, we have been recording videos for our Instagram channel. Here is a compilation of some of the clips!

In the video, the A-121-S stereo filter is mainly used as an end-of-chain filter. In combination with the A-149-4 quad random voltage source, it is possible to add modulation to the stereo field.

The feedback path was often patched in the clips, for example with a bandpass filter that had high resonance. This can lead to some pretty crazy sounds, as you can hear!

Another interesting thing to try is playing really high or low notes. Some of these the BBD is unable to track, which results in some quite nice glitches.

The A-188-9 and A-188-1 BBD combo offers a wide range of sound possibilities and often produces happy accidents. It's totally worth trying!

Questions? Let us know!

Module A-188-9 is a so-called high speed VCO that tracks prefectly to the 1V/oct scale in the frequency range of about 15kHz ... 500 kHz. The main application is the exact drive of BBD modules (A-188-1/2) to generate sounds realized by means of the so-called Karplus-Strong synthesis. But even in cooperation with other modules featuring high speed inputs (e.g. digital noise, delay, frequency divider) the A-188-9 makes sense. In principle, the module is made of a precision audio VCO followed by a PLL (phase locked loop) unit that multiplies the frequency of the audio VCO by 32. Thus the module can be used also as an audio VCO as it features the standard waveforms sawtooth, triangle and rectangle with adjustable pulse width."

"This video provides a detailed overview of a patch from the upcoming patchbook.

It features a sync patch with ring modulation. The video explains different sounds and routing options using the A-138j Janus Mixer in detail.

In this video, the system is sequenced from an external device and processed in a DAW."

"The basic system from Doepfer is a return to Dieter Doepfer's original vision of analogue modular synthesis. Modules can be connected via front panel audio and CV connectors and used in infinite combinations. The Basic System 3 is an easily accessible and well-structured system that can be used by enthusiasts and beginners alike.

This video demonstrates various patches on the system. Videos of the individual sound examples will follow shortly.
