Bruxa is an Angel | Shared System X Ep. 07 | Resynthesizer + Bruxa

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Bruxa is basically isolated time/filter experiment from Strega. I pre-ordered it in the blind without giving it a second thought, because I love my MakeNoise collection. If they'd make a new mult I'd get it too. But there's something special about Bruxa when it's added to an ecosystem like the Resynthesizer layout.

In this patch, I play the case almost completely manually, by starting 'events' with PrssPnt. It picks a new note for Spectraphon VCO A (a high pitched Red mode sound going to DXG, where the volume (CTRL) is modulated by WoggleBug's smooth output. VCO B is a very rich voice from the Green mode that seems to have a high and low frequency component and a certain unstability at modest levels. It almost sounds like a Tenor vocalist.

I am using Mimeophon in Zone 7 (zone fully CW) which I call 'The Long Repeat' because it's repeating almost a minute of buffered audio. But the real magic happened when I used Bruxa to 'smear' the unstable VCO B - the Tenor vocalist. I got an amazing angelic choir. I've heard this amazing 'smear' on other channels too so it's not unique to this case, it's Bruxa doing her magic.
I am sure it will sound even better with your own filters, utilities and FX chains.

I am taking it slow with this patch, with manual events and no sequencing. However, PrssPnt picks a new note on Rene's X channel for VCO A every time it's touched. VCO B gets pitch from Rene's Y channel, but I simply use the selected stage knob to pick a new note in the scale. When I touch PrssPnt, it opens up DXG to make the 'vocalist' appear.

I am aware the Resynthesizer is an exclusive layout and it will not be on everyone's desk. This video gives a cool impression of what a Spectraphon, a Bruxa and a Mimeophon can do for your drone music. You can always sculpt the sound with a filter, LPG or VCA from any brand."

Xtensions | Shared System 'X' tutorials episode 05 | New Arrivals

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"In my Shared System X series, I am exploring custom layouts for the MakeNoise multiverse. Since most modules offer basic features (modulation, basic waveforms, ringmod) they can also be useful for learning modular techniques. I already made a 'first patch' video for the new Channel Saver and PrssPnt modules, but they can have a different purpose in every new patch, so I wanted to use the 'new arrivals' with various modules like Morphagene and Mimeophon. They are extensions to the collection you already have, and this collection will immediately extend its capabilities with millions of new options. But I'll also revisit the DXG because it has a kind of 'weird' signal path I did not fully understand.

Here are the topics for today's tutorial:

00:00 Introduction
00:10 Dynamic gates
01:52 Complex LFO's
04:06 Mimeophon meets PrsSPNT
07:38 DXG insert/return
09:03 Waveforging (making twisted waveforms)"

Buchla LEM 218e V3 | With MakeNoise Strega, DXG and the Shared System B&G plus.

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"This is probably my first and last genuine banana Buchla 'module' because I really want to stick to Eurorack. But since I love Westcoast synthesis a lot, I think it's a must-have keyboard for anyone serious about MakeNoise, the Buchla/TTA 200T series and any brand that gets inspired by Don Buchla designs (e.g. Frap, Verbos, Serge eurorack). I tried so many keys, controllers, pads, etc, but most of them require MIDI to CV and most of them are designed for polyphonic MIDI with a few extra CV outs. The LEM218e is the orginal keyboard for the Buchla Easel from 1973. It may not be perfect, but it's perfect for the music I love most."

Aurelia | Kaitlyn's Easel Patch on the MakeNoise Shared System

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Nine years ago (time flies) Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith posted one of the most inspiring Buchla patches ever created [links below], puzzling and inspiring the Buchla community from all over the world. Maybe this is the fist video that brings the recipe to Eurorack and the Shared System is a great system to try and cook it. While Kaitlyn's patch is haute cuisine, this is a bit closer to fast food thanks to Rene V2. It's not exactly an Easel keyboard, but a patch like this makes you realize how powerful it really is once you get your head around it. It can turn any CV source into an arpeggio. I am using Brains to sequence good ol' Pressure Points, but since Rene is doing all the heavy lifting, you'll have plenty of time to add some personal expression."

Make Noise Retires the Shared System

Tony Talks Shared System | Make Noise video upload by MAKEN0ISE

"As we begin to ship the final production run of the Black & Gold Shared System Plus, Tony sits down to reminisce on its origins and history, and also to answer your Shared System questions from our various social media channels!

Three of the five Shared System Series artists host the records digitally on their Bandcamp pages:

https://cortini.bandcamp.com/album/ma...
https://surachai.bandcamp.com/album/m...

https://www.makenoisemusic.com/synthe..."

Update:

Press release follows, including a pic of the original Shared System followed by the black and gold.


"After more than a decade of production, the Shared System is being retired, with its final run currently shipping to dealers worldwide.

The Shared System was originally designed in 2012 as a self-contained instrument which was mailed to artists to create music for the Shared System series of 7” records on Make Noise Records. The Shared System was then officially released after the records later in 2012, updated in 2015 as the Black & Gold Shared System and again in 2017 as the Black & Gold Shared System Plus.

The Shared System is the deepest and most complex of our systems, bringing together many of our synthesis techniques into one system. From analog FM to voltage controlled granularization, the Shared System goes to more sound destinations than most folks have time to travel to in a single lifetime. While this marks the end for the Shared System’s production, the instrument will provide an endless source of inspiration for years to come. As always, we cannot wait to hear what you create with yours!

To commemorate the Shared System’s retirement, we have posted a new video to our YouTube channel ('Tony Talks Shared System'), in which Make Noise founder Tony Rolando sits down to reminisce on the origins and history of the Shared System.

While the original Shared System records are long out of print, three of the five Shared System Series artists currently host their Make Noise Records releases digitally on their Bandcamp pages and can be heard via the links below:

"Tony and Walker each recorded some music on the original Shared System from the Shared System Record Series in 2012-13, and also recorded some music on a modern Black & Gold Shared System Plus. After listening to each other's recordings they sat down to have a conversation about the whole experience.
