Schlappy #202day jam


video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"It's #202day ! The MC-202 is one of my all time favorite synth so I wanted to build a patch around it using the Schlappy Patching system.
Only the bottom row is used (apart of a Mixswitch to mix the voices).
MC-202 to Angle Grinder for additional filtering.
MC-202 gate out to two Nibblers for drum sequencing and stepped modulation.
Kick drum by two channels of the Boundary Layer.
HiHats by a feedbacking BTFLD in a Boundary.

Have fun!!

The above is a playlist of performances for the event. You can find the full list below. You can use the player controls to skip around.

"13-16/11/2025

Recording/Mastering: Ocicat
Video edit: ‪@tamiX-tamiX‬

1st video features TONYLIGHT with the following: 'I’ve used a lot of synths over the years but this one is something different… it’s a strange instrument. It’s small, much smaller than it appears in photos: it is part synth, part drum machine, part multi-track sequencer. I’m still figuring it all out but initial impressions are that it’s very unpredictable and slightly unstable… but in a good way.'"

BTFLD ... IN STEREO


video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING and Stazma

"Schlappy Patching 2026 EP.1

Hey there!
Today I'll have a go at using two BTFLD for stereo sound processing and show some modulation strategy to make it sound even MORE stereo. It's quite crazy all the weird and harsh tones you can get out of it feeding just a simple triangle wave to it.

Have fun!!"

Beyond the Noise: Synth and Eurorack Performance


video upload by MKustomAudio

"The initial idea of this track started with just ambient noise created by running the Mutable Instruments 'Plaits' through the Schlappi Engineering 'Interstellar Radio'. This noise was further processed and randomized by running the signal through various filters and effects.

After deciding to add in melodic and percussive content, the Moog 'Mother 32' and Novation 'Bass Station II' (AFX overlay used) were then added with sequencing provided by the Squarp Instruments 'Hermod+'. To process the Bass Station II further, it was sent through the eurorack setup using a couple Noise Engineering modules and the Befaco 'Oneiroi'.

The Novation 'Peak', Sequential 'OB-6 Desktop', and Korg 'Minilogue XD' and 'Arp 2600M' were added next to provide bass, melodic and ambient drone content. Last added was some additional drums/samples provided by the Elektron 'Digitakt II'."

"Granular" Filter Trick - Klavis Mixwitch


video upload by Stazma and SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"Roll your own 'granular' filter!

All you need is a sequencial or adressable switch to plug various outputs of any multi mode filter into it and then run it at audio rate. I'll show you how to patch this with the Klavis's Mixwitch and Schlappi Engineering's Angle Grinder.

It worked and here is how!"

100 Grit Feedback Tricks - Schlappy Patching 2025 EP.19


video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING and Stazma

"New year for Schlappy Patching!

Hey there!
Today I'll show you how to patch a voltage controled feedback loop in the 00 Grit so you can control the effect some of normaled connections make by using just an external VCA and a modulation source of your choice.

Have fun!!"

Sequencing a glitchy pattern feat XOR Nerdseq - Schlappy Patching 2025 EP.18


video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING and Stazma

"New year for Schlappy Patching!

Hey there!
Today I'll show you how I used an external sequencer (XOR Electronics's Nerdseq) to sequencer some glitchy beats and a bassline on the Schlappy Patching system.
This might of interest for those who are curious about how to use an external sequencer with their Schlappi modules.

Have fun!!"

Aggression Therapy | Looking for mean and vicious sounds in Eurorack


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"The word 'aggression' is used in this video to express a certain quality of sound and music. It's not indended and should not be associated with any form of violence. In music, it can emphasize the emotion or reveal what's happening in an actor's mind. It's an element of storytelling. Use it wisely.

For some reason, people love aggressive sounds and we wouldn't be having heavy metal, noise muisic and industrial grunge without it. Some brands, not calling names, specialize in it. So I've been thinking. Does an 'aggressive' VCO exist? Modules like Three-Body, Plasma Voice, Loquelic Iteritas Percido and WaveRazor came to mind, but the level of rudeness completely depends on who's patching it. Not calling any names again. I think 'aggression' - it's a bad word, I know - is a recipe where you'd drive your gear into distortion, self oscillation and cross modulation. However, it's often about grit, dirt, filth and grunge. You don't need violence to enjoy it, it's just 'colors' and many of these colors are all over mother nature.

The ultimate showcase would be Noise Music, but I think that noise doesn't tell a story and emotions need to develop. So it needs some kind of storytelling. In this video, I'll explore some VCO's and combos that will balance the edge of noise, and then try to manage it. Even the most brutal noise becomes percussion when you sculpt it, and even the most civilized module can reap havoc and bring chaos."
