This Eurorack filter has AUTO DYNAMICS! // Flow 3 from Joranalogue *MEGA DEMO*

video upload by DivKid and Joranalogue Audio Design

"As we'd expect from Joranalogue, they take inspiration from classic, seemingly simple functions and turn them into musical and technically impressive devices. Flow 3 is a compact filter that builds upon on the idea of an auto wah, it's a filter with 'auto dynamics'. There's on board modulation, that can modulate itself or your modular system, stave variable filter outputs, CV over everything and an easy to play with layout in 6HP."

Update: Press release follows:

Joranalogue Audio Design announces availability of Flow 3 auto-dynamic filter module for Eurorack that sounds bigger than it looks

STEKENE, BELGIUM: having made its impressive-sounding debut during a showcase at SUPERBOOTH26, May 7-9, FEZ-Berlin, Germany, high-quality Eurorack music synthesiser modules-maker Joranalogue Audio Design is proud to announce availability of Flow 3 — an auto-dynamic filter that sounds bigger than it looks, thanks to the novel variation on the classic state variable filter topology that lies behind its compact 6 HP panel — as of August 25…

Firstly, Flow 3’s core integrator saturation of its simultaneous — low-pass (LP2), attenuates frequencies above the filter frequency (or cutoff) at -12 dB/octave and self-oscillates at a phase of 180°; bandpass (BP2), selects a band of frequencies around the filter frequency (but below and above that the attenuation slope is -6 dB) and self-oscillates at a phase of 90°; and high-pass (HP2), attenuates frequencies below the filter frequency at -12 dB/octave and self-oscillates at a phase of 0° — outputs provide for a sound that is clean yet distinctive.

RESONANCE response is exceptionally smooth — it, too, can easily reach self-oscillation (at higher feedback levels), the temperature compensation and exact calibration effectively transforming Flow 3 into a reliable quadrature sine/cosine VCO (Voltage-Controlled Oscillator) with tight pitch tracking.

The ace up Flow 3’s sleeve, however, lies in its auto-dynamic nature — helpfully highlighted by the non-erasable AUTO DYNAMIC FILTER graphic positioned across that compact, clean-cut 6 HP panel. After all, it is a filter that can modulate itself, achieved by a combined DECAY generator/envelope follower circuit controlling the filter frequency over an adjustable range; either fire decay envelopes from external triggers, or flip it to AUTO mode to follow along with the incoming signal’s amplitude envelope (or both, simultaneously).

Saying all that, then, creating heavy-hitting analogue kick drum sounds becomes a breeze, but, with a bit of patching, Flow 3 can even be used as a spectrum splitter (or crossover), cleanly separating the full audio range into low and high portions, for dual-band signal processing — perfectly possible thanks to the Linkwitz-Riley filter response at minimum resonance.

Ultimately, users of Flow 3 can clearly get carried away as the Eurorack module concerned creatively takes the old auto-filter concept to new voltage-controlled heights, hearing for themselves exactly what the fuss was all about at that impressive-sounding SUPERBOOTH26 showcase!

Coming complete with a 16-to-10-pin Eurorack power cable, two black M3 x 6 mm hex screws, two black nylon washers, and a hex key, Flow 3 is available as a 6 HP module — measuring 128.5 mm (H) x 30 mm (W) x 52 mm (D) with a +12 V: 45 mA/-12 V: 45 mA maximum current draw, reverse polarity (MOSFET) power protection, 100 kΩ impedance inputs and 0 Ω (compensated) impedance outputs — through Joranalogue Audio Design’s growing global network of authorised dealers at a MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) of €215.00 EUR or $225.00 USD.

Sound Design BEAST! 3rd Wave 8M gets New Firmware

video upload by The Midlife Synthesist

"3rd Wave 8M gets a big update! In this video I explore the wavemaker and the new Shimmer Reverb effect"

3rd Wave Shimmer Verb Demo (No Talking)

video upload by Groove Synthesis

"Shimmer Verb is a brand new reverb effect in 3rd Wave OS 2.0. Check out some of the sounds it's capable of in this demo performed by Christian Frentzen.

The idea behind a shimmer effect isn't new, but the way we've built ours gives you a lot of freedom to create and control inside the synthesizer. Most importantly, it sounds great without harshness or the need to EQ.

This Shimmer will give you the ability to shift the pitch in fractions of a semitone across a full two-octave range, from one octave down to one octave up, which means you're not limited to complete octave or semitone shifts. Dial in something in between, and you'll land on intervals that most shimmer effects can't reach, from lush and consonant to genuinely dissonant and unsettled, depending on where you land and how you play into it.

Examples:
00:00 - Lush Bells
00:24 - Falling Shimmers (Pitch Envelope)
00:45 - Warm Shimmers
01:30 - Detuned Warmth
02:00 - Snappy Verb
02:26 - Sidechain Shimmer (LFO-modulated)
03:04 - Long and Dark (Pitch -12)"

Lifeforms SV-1 Mini / Eurorack In the Works

via Pittsburgh Modular Confluence

"Update on the Lifeforms SV-1 Mini. We sharpened our pencils and did all the math. Retail will be $599. That is $200 less than the original SV-1! Production SHOULD be finished by mid December and they SHOULD be shipping to buyers mid-January. All great news. So I want feedback on preorders. Should we take preorders? When should they start? The first run will be 300 units. Thought?"

"We will have production test units the middle of September. They will have the production panels and case. And that is what would be demoed for the preorders."

A new kind of audio FX - Sparkling Riser

video upload by SynTesla

"The Sparkling riser is a brand new kind of audio FX

This effect is achieved by stacking 12 lines of 'micro-delays' lasting a few milliseconds (6 lines per audio channel) The delayed sound is mixed back into the original sound, creating a comb filter.

Each delay line has a feedback loop, and the delay time is modulated by several LFOs. In addition to the LFOs, we have 12 VCAs (1 per delay line) whose levels are synchronized to the phases of each LFO.

But when the effect is on the "infinite rise" mode, as soon as we apply randomization to the LFO phases, something very strange happens:
'phantom notes' appear. We could compare this effect to concentric waves colliding to create a splash—a “spark” that, in our example, generates notes based on the frequencies and harmonic content of the sound. This 'spark' gives the effect its name: 'Sparkling Riser.'

This effect is directly inspired by a project we're working on with electronics genius Yves Usson."

nonlinearcircuits Dichotomy Paradox 1

video upload by cirtcele

"Updated version of Divine CMOS. Wonderful module for harmonically rich sounds or use as a complex CV patter and gate generator. Thought the LEDs were superbright purple but turned out to be a mild light blue."

via nonlinearcircuits

"This module has been thru a few cycles. The original idea for the design is from an article in Electronotes EN#98 by Lester Ludwig, spectacularly titled ‘A Square-wave Frequency-division Sub-octave Cross-product Module, it’s relationship with Lie algebra, and other related processes’ or more simply known as The Cross Product Module.

The frequencies of two VCO signals are separately divided by /2, /4, /8 & /16 ratios. The corresponding divisions are ANDed together and the results, along with all the raw divided frequencies are mixed together in various ways. You end up with a very harmonically thick, animated sound.

I did a full bloat CMOS (Ludwig’s design was TTL) version for a 4U panel back in 2008 or so, but changed the AND gates to XOR gates for a more ring-modulated effect. Then a minimal, slimmed down eurorack version, called Divine CMOS. This just used the XOR’d signal and outputted a signal determined by the pots.

After some requests for an expanded version, I re-visited the design.
