Synth Explosion Italy Event Pics



Some pics in via Tony Light of https://www.leploop.org

The following is via Milano Modulare where you'll find additional pics.

"A fantastic Sunday yesterday at Synth Explosion at Trattoria San Biagio !
Thanks to all the people involved, to the friends of NONO Modular , LepLoop and 51beats for being a lively and creative part of our community and thanks to Jolin for your continued collaboration! Here, as always, some photos from the event!"

Don't miss the STELLARIA pictured below. According to Jolin, it's: "a synthetic flower made of sensors and electronic components. Its petals are light / temperature / pressure / moisture and wind sensitive. The sound generated is then processed into a modular synthesizer to create an interactive performance."

Amsynths AM8171 Quad Sequential Switch


video upload by O.Z. Hall

"When Roland developed the System 100M they created a quad signal gate module, the 171, which also had a ton of multiples. The AM8173 module contains the same four signal gates built with modern components, and an onboard LFO clock, making it a very useful sequential switch, for both audio and CV signals.

Matths - live at SUPERBOOTH23


video upload by Superbooth

"Acclaimed Radiophonic Workshop collaborator and Brighton-based electronic producer MATTHS (Matt Hodson) presents dark, brooding and extreme techno productions that boast brutality within the breadth of the production aesthetic using a bespoke modular synthesiser setup.
His live show then re-works the songs, as he reprograms the melodies through different filters and oscillators when taking to the stage, re-interpreting them into sometimes very different beasts.

His performances are a captivating fusion of experimental, ambient, and techno sounds, with each performance being a unique, improvised journey through uncharted sonic territories.

With his deep understanding of modular synthesis and keen sense of musicality, MATTHS has gained a reputation as a true master of his craft. His performances are known for their hypnotic rhythms, intricate melodies, and rich textures, creating an immersive experience for audiences that transcends the boundaries of traditional electronic music.

All of the new releases are available through his own label ‘Solitude’ at MATTHS’ Bandcamp page www.matths.bandcamp.com. including hours of high-quality live performances, remixes and exclusives for subscribers such as behind the scenes studio work, track breakdowns and more live performances.

Home Made Intellijel Cascadia


video upload by Stazma

"Today I'm going to talk to you about my Intellijel system. It's been with me for a loooong time this one. I don't change it much because I find it very well laid out and powerfull as it is. When the Cascadia came out it gave a GAS crisis but I realized I had somewhat of the same thing in an interface I designed myself with this set of modules.
This is why I'm going to show you it can be a Roland SH-101 as well as a Buchla 'Music Easel' (actually more a 208 'Stored Program Sound Source" module).
It's also kind of a love letter to Intellijel in general for being awesome. No sponsor of any kind here as I bought all the Intellijel modules and case myself and they did not asked me to a video on this either.

Have fun watching!"

BOUNCED / Venus Instruments VENO-ECHO / as a looper / also some PHONOGENE / not a tutorial


video upload by BRiES

"I made a send out of my joystick (it has built in vcas) so I could route new sounds through the looper. Additionally I have a manual gate routed through the Herzlich Labs OMEN lpg to create a soft envelope that modulates the filter frequency for my main sound (in a way acting as a vca as well).
The bulk of the looping is done with the VENO-ECHO. Phonogene is used as an 'on the side looper' set at a shorter time. I had monitoring on for both VCOs that I used (which I didn't record) - otherwise it would be impossible to stay somewhat in tune."

ALM Introduces CIZZLE - Casio CZ Style Digital 'Phase Distortion' VCO Eurorack Module


video upload by ALM TV

Update: 3rd video, pics, and details added below. Check with the dealers on the right for availability.

"The 'CIZZLE' is a dual digital 'phase distortion' VCO inspired by the classic Casio 'CZ' series synthesizers. It brings the specifics of 'CZ' style phase distortion (PD) synthesis into Eurorack with the inclusion of primary and secondary oscillator layering and detuning (with up to 8 voice chord generation), extended morphable PD wave generation algorithms, unique resonance wave generation, plus specific 'end of chain' ring modulation and noise modes that are key to the CZ sound.

The voices also feature built in VCAs and various modulation controls and inputs, a cv-able chord mode, tracking ability, triggered mode switching and can be output independently or mixed with stereo widening.

The 'CIZZLE' finally brings characteristic CZ style synthesis to Eurorack with a rich palette of sounds from mellow ambient tones, 90s Detroit Techno inspired chords, Reese style basses, and synth tones with unique faux resonance squelch."

Satoshi & Makoto Meet CIZZLE

video upload by ALM TV

"ALM / Busy Circuits invited artists Satoshi and Makoto, renowned Casio CZ synthesists, to the Clockface Modular shop and studio in Tokyo, Japan to try out the new ALM CIZZLE module. This short film documents the visit and provides a translated interview.

Satoshi and Makoto are a twin duo that received international acclaim in 2017 with the release of their debut album 'CZ-5000 Sounds and Sequences' on Safe Trip. In 2020, their follow up album "CZ-5000 Sounds and Sequences Vol. II” was released, solidifying their dedication to the Casio CZ synthesizer.

The new ALM CIZZLE is a dual digital 'phase distortion' VCO inspired by the classic Casio CZ series synthesizers. It brings the specifics of CZ style phase distortion (PD) synthesis into Eurorack with the inclusion of primary and secondary oscillator layering and detuning (with up to 8 voice chord generation), extended morphable PD wave generation algorithms, unique resonance wave generation, plus specific 'end of chain' ring modulation and noise modes that are key to the CZ sound. The CIZZLE is available now from fine ALM stockists worldwide.

Very specail thanks to Clockface Modular for hosting Satoshi & Makoto.

Cizzle: a killer Casio CZ-style voice from ALM / Busy Circuits

video upload by Tom Churchill

"Cizzle is a Eurorack synth voice from ALM Busy Circuits based around Phase Distortion synthesis, which Casio pioneered in their CZ series back in the 1980s.

It contains two digital oscillators that would typically be combined and used as one voice, but you can also use them independently. Each oscillator can produce four-note chords and has its own VCA, so all you need is an envelope or two to start using this as a complete voice.

Nano Modules VCV Random - Review


video upload by Molten Music Technology

"An interesting protrusion of software into hardware, VCV Random pulls a stock module out of VCV Rack and makes it a reality. The result is a delightful generator of randomness with four flavours.
Nano Modules sent me this module for review but have no say in the outcome."
