Sovage Engineering - Le Brasier and L'Ecorcheur compared

video upload by John Schussler

"I've had L'Ecorcheur for a while and been very happy with it, so figured I should get a Brasier as well to keep L'Ecorcheur company.

They're similar, but different enough that I understand why they both exist. They have distinctive sounds, and different controls, so it seemed worthwhile to record them back to back.

And apparently their distortion is so meaty they manage to take the camera off angle (without me noticing). That takes some serious gronk.

New Eurorack Distortion - December 2023 edition

video upload by John Schussler

"New month, new modules.

This month, distortion!

Some are tube, some aren't. It's a mixed bag. But it's interesting to hear tube up against diode to remember how the vibe changes. There are some here that are warm and fuzzy, and others that clearly just want to rip off your ears and throw them in a blender.

So don't crank your volume right away...you'll find out the hard way that I've put no limiting on the audio here....

LE BRASIER OVERVIEW /// EURORACK GERMANIUM RESONANT MULTIMODE FILTER / DISTORTION

video upload by SOVAGE ENGINEERING

"LE BRASIER is a hybrid OTA and germanium based multimode filter, a 100% analog circuit meticulously crafted from the ground up. It defies and blends the conventions of classic filters, resulting in surprisingly extremely sweet and yet wild and chaotic results, thanks to its unpredictable germanium core.
The germanium distortion is a unique one, centered around the interplay of feedback and clipping. It offers two distinct flavors: a classic overdrive for added weight and power to your audio, and a special fuzz that emphasizes the high-mid frequencies.
Due to its hyper-resonant nature, you can utilize it as a VCO capable of generating intriguing waveforms, including a pure sinewave.
As a standalone unit, it functions as a coloring tool; feed in complex audio like a drum loop or a full mono track and experience the immediate transformation, delivering instant character..Aka INSTANT MOJO … Take it a step further by infusing life and distortion through CV modulation of the parameters. This level of control is made possible with individual attenuators, a feature consistent across all SOVAGE modules!"

BOUCAN - OVERVIEW - EURORACK RAW ANALOG NOISE FX PROCESSOR

video upload by SOVAGE ENGINEERING

"A basic overview of BOUCAN
BOUCAN is an odd analog noise generator with special features like the possibility to behave as a tonal equalizer, a waveshaper, a distortion and even as a filter just to name a few of its secret functions.
BOUCAN is Equipped with 2 channels with their own controls and outputs, with the addition of 3 types of fixed noise outputs, the classics WHITE, PINK and a homemade special one: FIRE !
The COLORED NOISE channel is a mix of different classic colored noise with some nuance while the ROCKET ENGINE and HURRICANE cover the heavy and unusual territory.
Both channels have independent control over its output level and its morphing capability represented by the top 'MULTI FUNCTION KNOBS' that can be voltage controlled.
The amplitude of both channels can be changed at the same time using the “NOISE LEVEL” knob which represents the amount of noise you are injecting in the whole circuit. Furthermore, you can plug any kind of external sources to the direct central INPUT and blend it with the internal noise circuit, or simply switch off all the noise and use BOUCAN as an effect unit with pleasing and different results at every output !
Now it’s time to…MAKE SOME NOISE ! with some BBBRRRZZZ on top !

03:34 External source (drums ) mix with internal noise

Sovage Engineering - L'Ecorcheur eurorack distortion

video upload by John Schussler

"I did a video a little while back comparing some distortion modules, and included the L'Ecorcheur. At the time I didn't really understand how the Glitchzr knob worked, so the demo was...sub-optimal.

Here's another try, focusing this time just on the L'Ecorcheur. Starting with the Glitchzr knob down, so we get a better comparison of its straight distortion capabilities, then later we turn it up for the full experience.

BASIC OVERVIEW : LE COURSIER /// SOVAGE ENGINEERING /// Eurorack Envelope generator

video upload by SOVAGE ENGINEERING

"LE COURSIER is a dual exponential envelope generator which both have 3 different modes, a positive and inverted outputs, and a mix output.

As every Sovage Engineering module you can expect some uncommon behavior compared to your usual envelope generator.

EG I : Is a polyvalent exponential envelope generator, perfect for synth voice.
There is a twist ! In this case, it’s a second subtil attack stage that starts when your trig or gate ends its cycle ( falls at 0v), mimicking hard picking on guitar strings.
This effect reacts to the ATTACK and can be emphasized or diminished by adjusting the SUSTAIN and the RELEASE.

EG II : Is a snappy and really sharp exponential AD or ASR envelope generator that can be looped and turned into a bipolar LFO.

video upload by SOVAGE ENGINEERING

"TEINTE : https://www.sovageengineering.com/pro...

An analog vintage recording audio equipment emulator, the perfect tool to color your audio.

The main idea behind this module is to recreate the tone of some of my favorite vintage preamps x mics x speakers combo when I’m reamping audio.

I have tried to match that tone as closely as possible, of course you can’t compare but you can trust your ears, and overuse the BROKEN mode of course, or just give a sense to your introversion by abusing the DARK VINTAGE combo, lights off…

Put 2 at the output of a stereo mixer and you have a vintage console

Take 2 with DUO and you have an awesome stereo bus coloration for your external audio sources.
