"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday, a video series where we demonstrate the endless possibilities of a Joranalogue system! Today, Frits explores analogue downsampling with Step 8. Making use of this technique produces a vintage, lo-fi sound."

Tech Thursday | Feedback Patching Filter 8

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

This week, we tackle feedback patching with the very versatile Filter 8. Patching an output to the EFM allows us to craft vastly different waveforms than just the original sine waves that Filter 8 resonates at."

Tech Thursday | Resetting Orbit 3

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

It's Thursday, which means that Joran is back with another easily overlooked feature on one of our modules. This week we take a closer look at the reset input on Orbit 3, which allows you to craft sounds you might not expect from a Chaos Oscillator!

The reset input also features Schmitt action, meaning it can be driven by just about any signal you can throw at it—there's no need to limit yourself to trigger pulses only.
Happy patching!"

Patch Tuesday | Open Heart Techno Sequencing | Step 8, Route 4

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday!

Today on Patch Tuesday, we are performing some open-heart techno surgery. It's live hardware at its purest, featuring analogue kick drums, chaotic percussion sounds, a delay-heavy phase modulation lead and hands-on sequencing provided by 2x Step 8 and Route 4. With a 6 U Joranalogue system and a bag of patch cables, you're all set for your next club gig!

Have fun patching!"

Joranalogue Audio Design Introduces Line of Patch Cables

Press release follows:

"What started as a simple plan to develop our own line of patch cables, quickly became an engineering feat in typical Joranalogue fashion. Before we knew it, we were stripping cables, benchmarking crosstalk and high frequency performance, and designing our own cable testing tools.

Needless to say, we're incredibly proud of the results.
Patch is a series of top quality patch cables for the discerning modularist, available in black and white, and a variety of lengths. Constructed using a custom-made coaxial base cable and overmoulded mini-jack plugs, protected by unique laser-cut aluminium shells, these cables are designed to outlast and outperform.

Lengths 15, 30, 60 and 90 cm are available in 8-packs, while the extra-long 150 cm cables are supplied in 4-packs.

Available now at a Eurorack dealer near you!"

Check with the dealers on the right for availability.

Quick specs

Premium patch cables with 3.5 mm mono mini-jack connectors for Eurorack modular synthesiser use.

Engineered for audio, CV, as well as analogue video signals. (!)

Unique anodised aluminium shells and heavy duty bend reliefs for long life span.

7 inner signal and 40 outer shield conductors of 100 % ultra-pure oxygen free copper.

Extra-flexible PVC outer sleeve: satisfying 'droop' without crinkles.

Safely packaged in a reusable cotton bag with branded hook-and-loop cable tie included.

Incredibly fun to patch with. (Seriously!)

Designed in Belgium; made in China.

Tech Thursday | Hold Modulation with Filter 8

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

This week's Tech Thursday is all about Filter 8's hold feature. When you enable the hold switch, Filter 8 'freezes' its filter core.

This can be gate controlled using the hold input. Turn the hold modulation up to the audio range and you'll get sync-like effects. The hold input features Schmitt action, meaning it can be driven by just about any signal you can throw at it.

Happy patching!"

Patch Tuesday | Mid/Side FX Processing | Enhance 2

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday!

Today, Boris demonstrates how to use Enhance 2 to process your mid/side channels with various effects.

Patch two slightly detuned oscillators to the stereo inputs of Enhance 2. Take your mid and side outputs and route them to different effects— in this instance Delay 1 and Fold 6. Enjoy a rich stereo sound by sending your effects' outputs back to the side and mid inputs!

Have fun patching!"

Tech Thursday | Folding LFOs with Fold 6

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

Today is all about wavefolding. There's a chance that you've used a wavefolder on audio signals, but they take a lot more than that. In this patch, an LFO is being folded, yielding interesting results

Happy patching!"

Patch Tuesday | Rungler Feedback Patch | Step 8, Generate 3

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday!

This week, Boris takes us into the chaotic world of Rob Hordijk with a Rungler-inspired patch. Unlike the digital CMOS shift register used by Rob, we are using Step 8 as an analogue shift register.

Have fun patching!"

Tech Thursday | Select 2 as a Ring Modulator

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

Joran is here once again to shed light on a feature that you might have missed. Today, we use Select 2's unity input at audio rate to create a ring modulator!

Happy patching!"

Patch Tuesday | 16-Step Drum Sequencer | Route 4, Step 8, Compare 2

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday! This week, Boris shows us how to create a 16-step drum sequencer using Step 8, Compare 2 and Route 4. Different sounds are triggered, according to the positions of Step 8's sliders.

Tech Thursday | Filter 8 as a Slew Limiter

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

In this week's Tech Thursday, we unveil a lesser-known application for one of our classic modules, Filter 8. Not as a filter, not as an oscillator, but as a slew limiter.

Simply switch the frequency range to 'low' and patch your pitch CV into Filter 8's input. You can even spice it up by cranking up the resonance!"

Patch Tuesday | Glistening Arps | Route 4, Delay 1, Generate 3

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"This week on Patch Tuesday: Glistening Arpeggios

Our main sound source is a Generate 3, receiving pitch from a MIDI-to-CV keyboard. Mix 3 is used as a VCA, being modulated by one Contour 1. The two other Contour 1s accentuate the sound by opening the VCA even more. Their inverted signal is sent to the control inputs of Route 4, producing arpeggios.

The extra flavour in this patch comes from Delay 1, clocked by filter 8, resulting in beautiful, lo-fi arps."

Tech Thursday | Step 8 as a Variable Length Sequencer

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Besides bringing back Patch Tuesday, we're also giving you Tech Thursdays! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

This week: Step 8 as a variable length sequencer, powered by the stage CV input. Did you know that in addition to directly addressing the register by CV, this input also allows you to change the reset point? By patching Step 8 to reset itself, we can thus dynamically vary the length of the sequence under voltage control.

Thanks for watching!"

Patch Tuesday | Shift Register Generative Patch | Step 8, Filter 8, Pivot 2

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Patch Tuesday!

Frits immerses us into an ambient generative patch for this week's Patch Tuesday! The main sound sources are two Filter 8s modulating each other through Pivot 2.

Step 8, in shift & sample mode, distributes Generate 3s core output throughout the system, modulating Pivot 2, multiple Contours 1s, and Orbit 3 while sending pitch CV to the Filter 8s and a Generate 3."

Patch Tuesday | Analogue Accumulator with Step 8 & Route 4

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Patch Tuesday! Have you ever heard of an analogue accumulator? A 'battery for CV', an accumulator stores a voltage which can be charged or discharged in discrete steps.

In this ingenious feedback patch, every step taken by Step 8 adds or subtracts voltage, creating a rising or falling melody. Additionally, Step 8 sends CV to modulate multiple modules in the system, whilst also performing duty as a gate sequencer."
