Hi Everyone,

Still working on getting myself up to speed in the new space digging into the gear and warming myself up. I made a 127 bpm something track, pretty minimal, upbeat but still pretty relaxed and dreamy. The star in this track is the Avalon Bassline, doing what it does best... square wave goodness is all over the place.

I also have some work to do fixing with the camera setup and different angles, this is a pretty complex challenge that will take some time given the angled ceilings that i have in the new space. While waiting there will be a few of these single and/or maybe dual cam videos for a little while... please have some patience while i get this sorted.

Play this one loud and in the dark for best effect.

Sequential Prophet 5 Desktop, Torso Electronics T-1 & Empress Effects Echosystem

video upload by Nightlife Electronics

"Here we have some beautiful chord progressions and arpeggios being coaxed out of the Sequential Prophet 5 Desktop by the exquisite Torso Electronics T-1 Algorithmic Sequencer. Some lovely spacial delays have been added with the Empress Effects Echosystem.

The sound of the Prophet 5 is instantly recognizable; lush and woozy 1970's vibes, dreamy chords and sizzling leads. Finally available again with the same vintage sound but in a modern build!

The Torso T-1 takes the reins when it comes to arranging and sequencing complex, musically interesting chord progressions and rhythms. A new approach to sequencing that is based on sculpting a set of parameters more than tediously entering individual events and notes.

Just a self playing patch I put together while having breakfast."

first zoia euroburo ambient patch

video upload by Red Means Recording Ambient

"Pam's clocks, Chaos sequences and modulates, Rings and Castor and Pollux make sounds.

Euroburo is fed audio from Castor and Rings. It passes Castor through two channels of VCA (modulated by lfos) and filters (modulated by lfos). The lfos are modulated by another set of LFOs on random, sent through a slew limiter.

Rings is fed in and given a similar treatment, with dual vcas being modulated by two very slow LFOs.

The two Castor channels are fed into two panners, which are being modulated by another slow LFOS.

Those outputs are sent to reverbs and ping pong delays.

It's pretty."

EMPRESS ZOIA is a Modular Synthesizer // part 1

video by LESINDES

"EMPRESS ZOIA is modular multi FX unit in stunning quality. But it bears under the hood also numerous modules that make it a real modular synth. Modules like VCO, VCA, VCF, Lfo, Step Sequencer etc. etc. Part 1 of a short JOURNEY the ZOIAs SOUNDSCAPES."

Start of this one reminded me of the Space Intro to the Steve Miller Band's Fly Like An Eagle.

ALLINAIRE Live @ VITALISE. [Monome Teletype, ER-301,Dreadbox, Zoia]

video by Allinaire

"Full uncut set using Eurorack: Monome Teletype doing the heavy lifting via i2c connections to Mannequins Just Friends, w/, Txo & Txi and the mighty Orthogonal Devices ER-301. The Dreadbox NYX2 is doing sequenced synth lines and various sound effects. Live control and manipulation of everything via the 16n Faderbank. More granular and delays via Empress Zoia.
This piece was conceived as an expanded live version of my track 'Torp' from the EP 'Heiro' on Bandcamp and New Sound Waves Records.

Apocalypse, Shallow Water, Mood, Astral Destiny & Zoia Pedalboard

video by Perfect Circuit

"Enter the giveaway here: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/contes...​

We teamed up with some of our favorite pedal companies to put together this pedalboard and we are going to give it away on our instagram, head over there to enter to win it! https://www.instagram.com/p/CMe8Rg3g6...​

The pedalboard and power supply are a Voodoo Lab Dingbat Small EX and Pedal Power 3. The Death By Audio Apocalypse provides plenty of distortion, then the Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water adds modulation and warbling tape effects. Then the Chase Bliss Mood provides delay and looping, the Earthquaker Devices Astral Destiny is a reverb with pitch shifting decays. Then the Empress Effects Zoia can add stereo effects to the end of your chain, you can use it as a drum machine to play along with, or you can run midi in and play it as a synth.

In this video we ran a guitar into the pedalboard and dialed in a few sounds, but you could definitely use this board with a keyboard or modular synth. Since we didn't run the board into an amp we used a Strymon Iridium as an amp simulator at the end of our chain in this video."

Dark Noisy & Glitchy Drone Texture with DIY Neutral Labs Elmyra Synthesizer (Feat Empress Zoia)

video by Sound Provider

"On this small demo I did an Ambient Drone with the Elmyra from Neutral Labs, the Elmyra is a quite noisy but fun and cheap Diy digital/analog hybrid drone synthesizer with a digital delay.

Elmyra is based on the Adafruit ItsyBitsy M0 Express microcontroller. Its 10-bit audio resolution already gives it a wonderfully gritty sound, and this circuit adds some nasty analog distortion to it.

For the video in addition to the delay included in the Synth, I also added a bit of reverb with the Zoia From Empress Effects , the patch I used is the "1978 plate A" from Christopher H. M. Jacques which you can download for free here if you have the Zoia : https://patchstorage.com/1978-plate-a...​

Voila
Leonard de Leonard"

1 hour with Sequential Prophet 10 and Zoia - No Dialogue

video by Major OSC

"Prophet 10 - 1 full hour. Non-stop playing.
At various points I'll use summit's reverb, delay, and chorus, but limited enough to allow the dry signal to still be distinguishable. At certain points, where you hear the stereo image become much bigger and wider, that's the Empress Zoia. All of this made possible using sends off a Mackie 16 channel VLZ4, feeding post fader directly to a prism sound titan. Full of deadmau5 and Pryda covers, along with some random improv. Big pads in the last 10 minutes. Enjoy!

First Frost

"A generative melodic project on the 5U modular synth.
A pair of synthesizers.com Q960 step sequencers in 3rd row control of timing provide staggered phrases. Each phrase is independent clock though closely timed. The drift is important to the interaction. One phrase is eight steps and the other is five steps. A pair of LFO's set some switch modules to introduce a new loop point at random times, further diversifying the patterns.
A random gate module from Yusynth (Yves Usson design) is employed to pick when auxiliary voices will sample from the step sequencers.
The first sound is a single Q106 triangle wave to the Synthetic Sound Labs digital delay, STG Soundlabs Sea Devils filter and Oakley Sound Systems SV filter in high pass. It then is run through the SSL Tube VCA/Timbral Gate. The random gates module sets when a pitch is sampled from the Q960's.
The second sound is the bass voice from the Dove Audio WTF vco into a Q150 Ladder Filter from Synthesizers.com. The same random gates module again selects when a voltage is picked from the Q960's.
The third pair of melodic lines are a pair of STG oscillators through the tube vca again. This pair are following the Q960's exactly.
A final voice is a Q106A vco with a PWM and triangle waves selected by the SSL Segwencer module before sending them to the Empress Reverb pedal. This time a pair of sequential switch outputs from the STG Switch determine which of the four outputs from the Q960's will send a voltage to a dotcom S&H then on to a Slew Generator.
Final effects were a Behringer 3rd Dimension BBD-320, a chorus delay from the TC Electronic s D-Two and a Lexicon MX200 in hall reverb state."

Canon de Coulomb

davidryle

"Two Q960 step sequencers running independent, free tempos and using the 3RD ROW CONTROL OF TIMING setting. Both are duplicating the same timing voltages and the first row pitch voltages. The second row is a little different on two steps. Of course the drift between them is obvious and I am changing the reset and skip switches as they play. The oscillators are STG and they are run into a Synthetic Sound Labs 1530 Tube VCA/Timbral Gate module for tube saturation. Then run through a Sea Devils filter and tape delay.
The bass notes are from the Dove Audio WTF vco through a Synthesizers.com Q150 transistor ladder filter in 24dB slope. The "siren call" upper sound is a pair of Q106 vco's sequenced by STG Soundlabs voltage mini stores and run through a Post Lawsuit LPF. The final signal chain is a Meris Hedra and Empress Reverb."

Radio Morning

davidryle

"A real time recording of the Moog Subharmonicon, EH Canyon Looper, Empress Reverb, Encore Frequency Shifter, a custom RADIO module for the 5U large format modular, Dove Audio WTF VCO, synthesizers.com Q150 filter and Echo Fix EF-X2 tape delay.
The radio module is voltage controlled by a Q119 step sequencer from synthesizers.com. It is run into the frequency shifter and a mix of several noise and stored random voltages from the Sputnik West Coast Random Source (a Buchla Source of Uncertainty clone) is modulating the frequency center. This is then run to an STG Post Lawsuit Low Pass Filter and on to an Oakley Audio state variable filter in band pass resonant mode. I am playing the center frequency of this filter and sending the signal on to the Echo Fix tape delay. The delay is voltage controlled from a Mega Ohm Audio LFO2 module from the 5U modular with a very slow rising ramp wave. As the voltage drops off the tape delay motor sweeps back down with a wonderful gliding effect.
The Subharmonicon is clocked from another Mega Ohm Audio LFO2. The output of Sequencer 2 is sent to a Dove Audio Window Transform Function VCO and gated to a Q109 Envelope Generator as well as run through the Q150 Transistor Ladder filter by synthesizers.com.
A separate instance of the Subharmonicon was previously recorded to the Electro Harmonix Canyon pedal looper. It is faded up at the last portion to add momentum to the piece. The Empress Reverb pedal is adding some nice modulated reverb to the SubH and Canyon.
What I really enjoyed was the glorious runaway feedback of the tape echo. It was fun to balance out the moving swells at the same time as playing the sub oscillators on the SubH and Oakley filter. As I moved about the antenna of the radio varied in how strong the signal picked up the AM radio stations. This lended another modulation and random aspect to the waveforms injected into the piece. A fun exercise."
