New Manhattan Analog MVP Eurorack Module

via this auction

"One-stop shop for all your utility needs!

The Manual Voltage Processor (MVP) is a multi-function module with several vital "basic-utility" functions all packed onto one panel. This module is an ideal one-stop solution for manually mixing, scaling, inverting, distributing and offsetting audio and/or control voltage signals.

This module consists of three basic sections:

Attenuverter/Offset: First is the attenuverter/offset section at the top. Each of the 3 independent attenuators is bipolar and will output a static +/-5v DC voltage (offset) with nothing plugged into its input jack. The corresponding LED will indicate your signal's strength and polarity. (Red = positive.)

Mixer: Second is the mixer section in the middle. It's set up as as a basic unipolar 4-input unity-gain mixer. The sum of channels 1 & 2 can be removed from the main output by inserting a cable into the jack labelled "1+2", allowing you to use this section as two independent 2-input mixers. The output jacks are marked with black square surrounds. This mixer is designed to handle primarily audio and uses the same op-amps as the mix. It'll handle CVs quite happly, but the inputs aren't matched and you may not get good results with critical signals such as pitch CV.

Multiples: Finally there is the multiples section across the bottom. On the left are two 1->2 buffered mults and on the right are two 1->3 passive mults. The input jack for each section is marked with a black circular surround. The arrows on the panel indicate internal connections between sections. With only buffered input a in use you can distribute a signal to as many as 10 different destinations.

Like all Manhattan Analog modules, the MVP is entirely hand-built using panel-mounted metal-shaft pots and is fully protected from reverse-power accidents.

Features

3 Bi-polar Attenuverter/Offsets
4 Input Mixer or Two Independent 2 Input Mixers
Two Buffered Multiples
Two Passive Multiples"

zvukoprocessor modular dub

Published on Dec 21, 2013 zvukoprocessor·1 video

"we were testing a new camera, doing stills mostly, but then we thought why not to shoot a video, so here it is. as you can see the patch is a bit too complex for detailed explanation, but in short its the trigger riot triggering everything no cv sequencer involved, although the clockwork can be considered as such and that what it does in this patch (among other things) the full list of modules involved is in the video itself. The obvious stars of the patch are: The Mighty Trigger Riot and Toms 909 well done Tiptop Audio!
And btw the bass is z3000 mk2 x2 > manhattan analog mix > z2040, modulated by z4000 > wmd digital vca controled by another z4000 > battery acid for mild compression and a bit of distortion."

Update: "::vtol:: volfram was used as an outboard delay"

Manhattan Analog CVP Control Voltage Processor

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

via this auction

"The CVP (Control Voltage Processor) is a +/-5v offset, glide (slew) and a bipolar attenuator. There is a two-color LED present to provide a visual display of the output signal (+Red/-Green).

The multiple output provides a buffered copy of the input signal. It is configured to drive multiple inputs with no signal drop. The twin outputs are configured in the same way. The total gain is trimmed to exactly 1.00, making the module suitable for use with pitch CVs.

This thing will allow you to scale, invert, offset, and/or slew a signal - and then send it to a half-dozen different destinations without any voltage drop. It'll do portamento on pitch CVs without wrecking the v/oct scaling; I've tested it successfully driving up to 6 VCOs in unison. It'll show you exactly what the signal's doing with the LED. And it'll do all that while providing a buffered copy of your original input signal for you to take elsewhere in your patch.

Features

+/-5V Offset
Glide (Slew)
Bipolar Attenuverter (Can go plus and negative)
Two Color LED for Plus(Red)/Negative(Green) Output"

Manhattan Analog 4HP Mix Module

via this auction

"The Manhattan Analog Mix is a 4hp Eurorack module designed primarily for clean, high-quality audio mixing.

It is DC-coupled so that it retains utility as a CV mixer when necessary. Under the hood it's a dead-simple op amp mixer with three unipolar inputs and an output which can be switched between uni- and bi-polar operation with a jumper on the board. The inputs use audio-taper pots and the output is linear to facilitate
both modes of operation."

"The MIX module by Manhattan Analog is a very compact 3-into-1 mixer. It is primarily suitable for mixing audio signals. technical details

MIX works very clean and is suitable for mixing audio for that reason. The module is DC-coupled and mixing control voltages is no problem as well. Three signal inputs with adjustable level and one adjustable output.

The input controls have audio taper potentiometers. A jumper can change the characteristic of the output control: either a normal potentiometer or a polarizer; latter is useful to invert the phase of the audio signal or a CV."

Braids, Robotto, Ripples, Wogglebug, Tame Machine messing about... from Equinoxoz music solutions on Vimeo.

"Just a little jam around with the Mutable Instruments Braids, Sound Machines Robotto, Flame Tame Machine and MakeNoise Wogglebug.

The Braids is in Sync mode and the pitch is being sequenced by the Tame Machines output. The Tame is getting the CV for the sequence from the Wogglebugs Stepped output attenuated through a Pittsburgh Mixer.

Robotto is playing along with the same sequence that braids is getting but attenuated more to limit the range down.

Both braids and Robotto go to a Manhattan Mix and then to the Modcan Dual Delay. The pulses clocking Robotto are going through the Doepfer A166 Logic Module.

The kick drum is the Mutable Instruments Ripples in self oscillation which is simultaneously having its Frequency swept and onboard VCA opened by the Pittsburgh ADSR module.

The Hats are the TTA HATS808, these are also going to the MA Mix, the pulse they are being fed goes from the CLOQ to a Dual Index VCA which is being opened by the same Pittsburgh ADSR that is making the kick drum.

Whole patch is being clocked by a Promodular CLOQ and CEX combo.

Nothing too serious just fiddling around mainly.

Braids is also set at 12bit 96khz."

Manhattan Analog MA35 VCF & VCA Module

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

"The MA35 is an internally-coupled VCF and VCA based largely on the back end of the legendary Korg MS-10. The VCF section is based on the classic Korg35 filter architecture, implemented using discrete transistors rather than the original (and impossible to find) proprietary ICs. It is switchable between Lowpass and Highpass modes of operation, which can either be done manually using the toggle switch or with CV via the "mode" jack. There is also a two-channel audio mixer built in to the input. Modular-level signals will overdrive the inputs as you pass ~12:00 on the dial - stay below this threshold for a smooth, liquid sound or push past it for fuzzy screaming mayhem! The VCA section is based on the MS-10's 'single-transistor' design, which adds distinct color to the sound and is an important part of capturing the spirit of the original.

Care has been taken in the selection of period transistors and opamp chips to keep the character of the sound as authentic as possible. This is not a hi-fi module! It's a little raw and a little noisy - in all of the very best ways.

The MA35 is fully protected from reverse power connection. The proper orientation of the ribbon cable is indicated on the top copper layer of the pcb, just below the power header."

Manhattan Analog Mutinator Trigger Combiner Module

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

"The Mutinator is a “human interface module” and can best be described as a multi-channel switched trigger combiner. It features 4 parallel channels, each with two switched inputs and a single output. Within each channel the inputs are combined using analog OR logic and sent to the output, whose activity is indicated by an LED. The operation of the switches is ON-OFF-(ON). In the ON position the corresponding input's signal passes to the combiner. In the OFF setting, that input is muted. The (ON) setting is known as ‘momentary-on’ - In this position the signal will pass to the output, but the switch will return to the OFF posision as soon as you release the switch lever. This allows you to more easily ‘play’ the switches in a performance situation.

Unlike some other trigger-combiner designs, this module contains active circuitry. Incoming pulses are reduced in amplitude by the logic section but an output amplifier compensates for this. In addition, the level of the incoming pulses is limited to protect the module. This means you can run any positive-voltage trigger or gate source in your studio into the inputs without fear of causing damage to the module. This limiter also prevents the Mutinator from producing an output voltage above ~10.2v, which makes the outputs safe for any other modules in your Eurorack modular synthesizer.

Please note that this module is designed to pass trigger and gate information only. It does not faithfully preserve the level of the input signal nor will it pass any voltage below 0v. It will not perform as expected with audio or bipolar control voltage signals."

"Just a quick and dirty jam I did with the new Promodular CLOQ module, the Rebel Tech Logoi and Stoichiea, TTA Drum modules and the Rubicon.

The CLOQ is controlling the whole patch and I am using it along with a Ustep and the two rebel tech modules to get the basic drum pattern of the track, the interplay between the two Hi-Hats was something that I really enjoyed in this jam.

The Rubicon was set up in a non FM patch, just using the Zig Zag out into a Sawtooth animator, the Sub out at 1octave down and running both of those into a Dual Index VCA/Mixer then Pittsburgh Filter, also using the Pittsburgh ADSR.

The WHOOOSH sound is just some white noise coming from the Quantum Rainbow noise module into a Manhattan MA35 filter in Highpass mode, there is a Synthwerks button module setup to turn on one channel of the Quadra to open the MA35's filter and on board VCA.

Summed it all to a Mutamix so I could mess around with the button settings, there was also a PressurePoints module set up to transpose the Rubicons sequence (which was a Synthwerks PGM4x4 into a Quantimator)

good fun :)"

Update:

Promodular CLOQ jam take 2

Promodular CLOQ jam take 2 from Equinoxoz music solutions on Vimeo.

"This is a variation on the jam I previously uploaded, same basic patch but just using the pressure points to transpose the bassline instead of an entire sequence, changed up the Logoi and Stoicheia settings and was really getting into the interplay between the two TipTop Hats as well as the Clap that they were controlling.

also patched up a basic kick from the self oscillating Dr Octature which was being whacked with an envelope from the Quadra for some "Uns Uns Uns Uns" action.

Just a casual jam for fun :) enjoy."

Intellijel Rubicon + Dr Octature

YouTube Published on Sep 18, 2012 by s0LVentCIty

"Just a quick demo of a couple of modules that seem to be under-represented on YouTube (or at least, direct audio recordings of): the Intellijel Rubicon VCO + Dr Octature VCF. First we hear Rubicon's Sine with some slight FM from a Pittsburgh VCO Triangle. Both the Rubicon and the Pittsburgh VCO are being sequenced via the Roland SH-101's arpeggiator. I bring in some FM on the DrO, coming from the Rubicon's Double-Saw. Then I'm using a Manhattan Analog Mix to bring in & out the Rubicon's Sub Out, and the Double-Pulse - between those 3 you get 3 octaves from a single VCO. Is fat, no?"
