WMD Sequential Switch Matrix and SSM Expand Drum Sequencing and Output Switching

Published on Jul 25, 2014 William Mathewson

"Caleb at WMD gives a quick demo on using the SSM and it's Expand Module as a drum sequencer and output switching unit to achieve unique sounding, processed drums.

Other Modules in this patch include:

Pro Modular - Cloq
4MS - Rotating Clock Divider
Hex Inverter - Mutant HiHats
Hex Inverter - Mutant Bass Drum
Noise Engineering - Basimilus Iteratas
WMD - Micro Hadron Collider
WMD - Multimode Envelope"

"Not enough randomness in your life? Well come on down and check out the SSF Ultra-Random ANALOG - First of the two module Ultra-Random Series. Can you guess what the second one is called?

See and touch the ANALOG prototype at NAMM: Hall E, booth 1076, of course"

"MONOLITH!
Our gnomes managed to squeeze out a rough prototype - just in time for the NAMM show! Check it out in Hall E, Booth 1076 and say hi to SSF :))"

Smoke Panel L-1 Synthesizer Quad VCA Module by Paper Products Music

This is a eurorack module designed by L-1 Synthesizer and assembled by me. The panel is my own design, produced by Pro-Modular. If it's difficult to tell from the pictures, it's a "smoke" color and only slightly opaque. It is mostly transparent. I have many of these available.

The module itself is a very high quality VCA design based off the THAT2180 VCA. What's especially interesting about this design is it's also a voltage controlled mixer. Channels 1&2 mix, channels 3&4 mix, along with a total mix out and an inverted mix out. Of course, every channel has its own output as well.

More information on the design is here:

Smoke Panel CGS01 Sub-Oscillator / Harmonic Sequencer by CatGirl Synth

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

via this auction

"This module is based off the CGS01 pcb by Ken Stone of CatGirl Synth. You can find it by navigating to http://www.cgs.synth.net/ under the 'modules' category, it's labelled with a CGS01.

This module serves a number of interesting purposes. Firstly, it's a complex sub-oscillator. It takes an input signal and derives pulses sub-octaves below the original. On my panel is divide by 1,2,4, & 8. It has two channels of sub-octaves, an A and a B. The knobs affect the volume level of each division.

What's more interesting, though, is to use the module as a sequencer. Its operation is very similar to the CMOS melody generators. For instance, you can take an LFO input and by adjusting the volumes of each division, get a stepped output useful for controlling a pitch CV.

Additionally, there is a section that multiplies the divisions. Thereby slightly off-setting the divisions and creating more complex tones in the case of an audio oscillator or (basically) changing the phase of the pulses to create different melodies.

There are a ton of different options for this module. You can find some demo videos on youtube by searching CGS01. I have intended to make a demo video for a while now, but am just terrible with video. If you have any questions at all, please contact me and I'll get back to you ASAP.

With all of that description behind us - the panel is my design and produced by Pro-Modular. It's a bit thicker than a standard aluminum panel. It is semi-transparent and a color called 'smoke'."

Propagate Audio Rate Rager

Published on Aug 7, 2013 SteadyStateFate·18 videos

"Another demo of Propagate as an audio source. The input is driven by a static VCO square wave. The last three delay CV inputs are modulated by the 4ms Quad Pingable LFO. The QPLFO is pinged by the ProModular CLOQ divided outputs. Enjoy!"

A Few PTG Envelope Patches.mp4

Published on Nov 27, 2012 by SteadyStateFate
"A few PTG envelope patches.
First patch uses the PTG as a VCA that feeds the DMF-2 Filter. The inveretd VCA signal is then used to modulate the filter to create the metallic ZONG!
The rest of the patches utilize the WMDevices Multimode VCA along with the DMF-2 and later with the ProModular CLOQ as a modulation source.
All of the patches are triggered by the Make Noise PP/Brains and in some cases CV from the PP.
Thanks and enjoy!"

"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 :)"

"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."

Trash_Audio & Xart Synth Event 9

Full details on TRASH_AUDIO

Giving these a TAX label for TRASH_AUDIO and Xart - TAX. Kind of fitting now that RSVPs are $20. Events take time, effort and money folks.

"Synth Event 9 will be structured to offer personal time with manufacturers, have the manufacturers themselves give demonstrations and have artist from both coasts of the country share how they use the instruments creatively. Basically – leave your gear at home and come learn something."
