Threetom Modular Doppio soft saturator and limiter : Digital piano noodles #1 (Lode)


video upload by Threetom Modular

Doppio soft saturator and limiter : Digital piano noodles #2 (Tom)




via Threetom Modular

"The Threetom Modular Doppio is a compact stereo amplifier, drive, and soft limiter module. Doppio helps complex and dynamic stereo sounds to find their place in a modular synthesizer context, where signals are hot, and headroom is extremely limited. Doppio does this by implementing a compact, yet flexible, soft-knee limiter. The limiter is specifically designed for eurorack levels and avoids the need for unnecessary make-up gain, resulting in a lower noise floor.

Doppio offers three different gain settings (x1, x5, x21), and three different ratios (linear, drive, and limit). In addition to this Doppio has gain and volume knobs for more precise control. Different combinations of these settings cater to applications like saturating complex stereo signals without turning them into mush, end-of-chain limiting, and boosting line level signals to eurorack level, while still retaining enough oomph to also saturate them nicely. Finding the right settings is made easy by DOPPIO’s unique coffee-bean-shaped indicator lights.

Even though Doppio’s architecture is stereo, that doesn’t mean it has no uses on mono signals: Either process two mono signals with identical settings, or chain the two channels to form a two-stage high-gain mono drive. Finally, it’s important to note that Doppio is DC-coupled and can also be used to process CV signals.

In summary: Doppio is to your signals what a double espresso is to you – it makes you bigger and bolder – and you know you’re hooked when the withdrawal symptoms kick in."

Threetom Modular DOPPIO / clean amp, dirty drive and useful limiter / brief demo / first patches

video upload by BRiES

"DOPPIO by Threetom Modular is a stereo (or two channel) saturator/soft clipper that was designed to bring all the dirt where you want it but remain clean where you need it. You can use it to add huge amounts of noisefree gain to weak signals or to make a clean sound more saturated by using a selectable soft clipping circuit. The most useful feature and the one I will probably use most of the time is the soft clipping 'limit' setting, which gives the user the ability to set a safe master volume and bring in some saturation.

This video is not an extensive playthrough but rather a quick rundown of the features of this brand new Threetom Modular creation. There's a few patch examples in this video but I'm sure I'll make more uploads using DOPPIO when I run into things that benefit from a fresh caffeine shot. I'm confident this will be a great boost to my drumsection (pun intented)."

Dutch Modular Fest 2023 Set for This Saturday 2nd of September




via ThreeTom Modular

"This Saturday, 2nd of September, it’s time for Dutch Modular Fest 2023.

Come check out my new module 'Doppio' and be the first to actually own one. I’ll have a limited number of modules for sale during the market (before the online launch). I will also have a small number of assembled MS-22 modules for sale, and plenty of full DIY kits. While you’re at my booth, also check out my Mixing Flask prototype. Mixing Flask is my personal take on an exciting utility mixer, with soft clipping and +6dB of gain on each input (and lots of purdy lights!🤩)

I’m really looking forward to meeting you all (again)! 😘"

You can find event details at https://www.dutchmodularfest.com

"Dutch Modular Fest (DMF) is an annual festival focusing on modular synthesizers organised by -and for modular synth enthusiasts!"

Threetom Modular Introduces Steve's MS-22 Modular Bagpipe



In reality, via Threetom Modular:

"Steve’s MS-22 [eurorack format] is now in stock!

Hey everybody, I’m happy to let you know that you can grab your very own Steve’s MS-22 from either myself or Signal Sounds (UK). Don’t wait for too long, there’s only a small number of units currently out there!"

Also:

"Behind the scenes at THREETOM
Maybe you missed this documentary last time around. Be sure to check out BRiES’ two-part visit to my workshop and lab, and take a unique behind-the-scenes look at how MS-22’s are built and calibrated."

EURORACK VISIT #2 / Threetom Modular's Audio Laboratory / diagnostics and coffeebeans


video upload by BRiES

"In this video I once again take you with me to the place where Threetom Modular gear is conceptualized and born. Tom shows us the calibration and quality control workflow in his Audio Lab while giving us some insight in the tools he uses (links below). We talk about his recent ventures with retailers and about the next module in his line-up called Doppio. After being served a nice cappucino I ask Tom if he has some tips (concepts to study) for people that want to get into designing and building (eurorack) synthesizers, which he answers elaborately. There's a comprehensive list towards the bottom of this description including links to interesting tutorials and practical examples.

As most of you will probably know Tom designs and builds synthesizer modules for the eurorack environment. He gained worldwide recognition with his 4hp filtermodule called Steve's MS-22 (or MS-22 for short) based around the sound of the famous Korg MS-20 semi-modular synth. In part one of the documentary we witnessed how Tom builds a few of these modules from scratch while we talk about his favourite tools, his background as an (optical) engineer and some of his custom jigs. You can watch that video by following this link:" [posted here]

EURORACK VISIT #1 / Threetom Modular's workshop / MS-22 assembly


video upload by BRiES

"Join me in this documented visit to the workshop of Threetom Modular in a small town near Mechelen (Belgium).

Threetom Modular has gained worldwide recognition in the eurorack community with his feature packed STEVE'S MS-22. Tom tells us a little bit about how the filter came to be, who Steve is and how he managed to gain some support really quickly. He also shows us the complete assembly process of his MS-22 and tells us all about the (custom) tools he uses to build them.

A lot of sweat was produced while shooting the video, and I will be back to document the callibration and quality control in Threetom's audio laboratory soon, as well as having a chat about his new upcoming module.

I want to genuinely thank Tom for going along on a ride of which we both didn't exactly know where we would end up. I'm very satisfied with how the audio and video came out, and I'm even more pleased with the fun and insightful content we were able to create together."

Modular Christmas Carols [Steve's MS-22, Twin Waves MkII, Chainsaw, Quadigy, Ensemble Oscillator...]


video upload by Threetom Modular

"PATCH NOTES BELOW! :)

SEASON GREETING TO EVERYONE IN THE MODULAR COMMUNITY FROM THREETOM MODULAR! I HOPE YOU HAVE THE MOST EXCELLENT HOLIDAYS AND I WISH YOU THE BEST FOR THE NEW YEAR! :D

* Voice 1 (Bass): A mix of a triangle wave and a square sub coming from Klavis Twin Waves MkII into Steve's MS-22. Low pass cutoff is modulated by the Klavis Quadigy envelope generator.

* Voice 2 (Lead): A supersaw coming from Klavis Twin Waves MkII going into Steve's MS-22. Low pass cutoff frequency is modulated by the TipTop Z8000 sequencer, asynchronously clocked by the Doepfer A-145-4 quad LFO.

* Voice 3 (Pad): Acidrain Chainsaw into a stereo pair of Steve's MS-22 filters. The Chainsaw's waveshape is slowly modulated by the Doepfer A-145-4 quad LFO.

* Voice 4 (Bells/counterpoint): 4MS Ensemble Oscillator, manually tweaked throughout the sequence.

All voices go through the ZlobVnicursal VCA, into the Befaco Hexmix and Hexpander combo. The Hexpander sends an effects mix into the Happy Nerding FXaid for reverb (which is then mixed back in through the Hexpanders effect return).

This performance was sequenced by Ableton Live and the Endorphin.es Shuttle control (outside of the shot), based on the midi file 'A Christmas Carol Suite' by Richard Ian (you can find it here: http://midkar.com/holidays/christmas/... )"

Steve's MS-22, Last Batch of the Year



via the ThreeTom Modular mailing list:

"Hi everybody!

Currently, it isn’t clear yet how Brexit will impact my business as of next year. Because of Brexit getting near, I’ve decided to set up another production run for Steve’s MS-22. This way, all of my friends in the UK are able to get their hands on Steve’s MS-22 before Brexit happens. I think it’s quite possible that as of next year I won’t be shipping to the UK until I have all the extra administration figured out.

Don’t wait too long to get yours, as usual, the size of the batch is limited! Any orders made before November 23rd should ship before half of December, reaching the UK before New Year with some margin.

Take care and stay safe!
Tom

PS: Wiretaps are also back in stock!"

You can find both at ThreeTom Modular and SynthCube.
