Joranalogue Audio Design ROUTE 4 / transposing CYCLE 5


video upload by BRiES

"The second V/oct input on CYCLE 5 is interesting to use for transposing the pitch of the VCO. When using the precise 1V outputs of ROUTE 4 (with the help of C2) you can create arp jumps across a few octaves. Let's figure out how I did it."

Make Your Happy


video upload by nbor

"I've been poking at this small modular system, trying to find unusual combinations of rhythms mixed with randomized melody lines. I found a pretty good balance, and recorded this. There's a handmade quality to it, as all three sequencers are started by hand, and the volca beats is a little bit different in its timing than the FH2s."

Beepboop Electronics Introduces the CTRL+ 4hp Touch Controller Module


video upload by Beepboop Electronics

"A short demo overview of the new CTRL+ 4hp touch controller module.

Includes pressure CV, Velocity CV and gate outputs!"



via Beepboop Electronics

"Control your eurorack system with just a touch. Generate control voltages and gates from the capacitive touch pads and route them to play your system.

Some things just can’t be sequenced……

The module has two touchpads, one to generate CV outputs and the other for gates. There are separate outputs for the pressure CV, velocity CV and Gate.

The pressure touchpad has been designed to be expressive. The pressure CV is proportional to how hard you press the panel, contact surface area and position.

The increasing separation of lines in the pressure touchpad result in an inverse relationship to its response so that depending upon where you touch you will get a sensitivity.

The top of the touchpad is more sensitive. The sensitivity decreases going down the panel.

Using just the tip of your finger the output CV can be controlled by slide it up and down the panel.

The RGB LED in the top left displays the level of each output.

Green = Pressure
Blue = Velocity
Red = Gate
The pressure CV output ranges from 0-6V

The module has been fitted with an offset null trimmer which can be adjusted when the module is mounted in your rack to set the Pressure CV back to exactly 0V.

The offset null can be adjusted through the panel with a small flat head screw driver.

Include power cable and mounting screws."

"The 'Stem Ripper' is a compact 8 channel audio recorder designed for immediate full patch recording without the need for external hardware. Capture all audio stems of a patch with ease.

In this video we multitrack a basic patch using the Stem Ripper then copy the stems to a computer for basic mixing and editing in Logic Pro.

Patch stems are recorded directly to a micro SD card which can then be easily transferred to a computer to mix, edit or archive patches. Each input is recorded as an individual track in a 16bit 44.1kHz multichannel date stamped WAV file. Record time is limited only by SD Card size. Two additional tracks within the output WAV contain a configurable stereo mix down of the inputs. The module has large 20Vpp per input headroom with LED clip indication if exceeded.

An optional 2HP 'Thru' output expander duplicates the 8 inputs to a row of unbuffered outputs, eliminating the potential need for stacking patch cables at the expense of more case real estate.

A suitable 64Gb SD card is included with the unit."

Deuxd - Stereo Cross-Modulation VCF for Eurorack


video upload by Mehr Music Machines

"Deuxd (DUDE) is a dual filter that encourages stereo audio-rate modulation, experimentation and can easily be configured in number of ways.

• 2 Completely Independent LP/HP VCFs
• True stereo VCF with global cutoff control + offset per channel
• Mono to stereo signal processor
• Stereo to mono signal processor
• Variable width bandpass filter with dual resonant peaks
• Freaky feedback machine with 2 flavors of overdrive and FM
• Stereo pingable-thing
• Dual FM Oscillator / Drone

Audio Input 1 (left side) is normalled to Audio input 2 (right side). This let's you easily process 1 signal with two separate filters. Audio 1 is also normalled to FM input 2. To break either connection, simply patch a cable into the respective input jacks. Similarly, Audio input 2 is normalled to FM input 1. This means that each signal input is ready to frequency modulation the opposite side's filter cutoff. (pre XFM)

The top Frequency controls (top right and top left) act as the primary cutoff for each side's filler. Use the global Cutoff (large knob top center) to offset the position of both filter's cutoff position at the same time. The global cutoff control can be used in one of two modes: SYNC - This will change the filter's cutoff of both sides in parallel with one another. OPPOSE: when switched to Oppose, the right side filter will receive inverted control voltage from both the large cutoff knob and signal patched into the Cutoff jack.

When using the Sum (mono) output, you can switch between two flavors of diode clipping (Dirty and Filthy) :)

For bandpass operation, switch one side to High-pass and the other side to Lowpass (results change depending on which side is LP/HP) patch a signal into either filter's audio input, then patch the output the starting filter to the input of the other filter. You can now pull your audio from either the 2nd filter’s output or the SUM output for added harmonics.

The X-mod knob is hardwired, this circuit isolates the output from each side, sends one signal to the cutoff of the opposite side, and visa versa. (post XFM)

For dual pinging fun, patch a slow moving square wave into the audio inputs. the resonance controls should be at about 10:00, just before self oscillation. You will get different results depending on how the internal FM circuits are set. also experiment with pinging while in dual resonant peak bandpass config."

"⚡ Meet PLASMA VOICE — the synth module that literally plays with lightning πŸ’₯

Gamechanger Audio have taken their famous Plasma distortion and cranked it to 11… then turned it into a full-blown high-voltage synth voice.

Inside? A real Xenon tube zapping over 3000 volts ⚡
The sound? πŸ”Š Harmonic, gritty, alive.

🧠 49 engines across 7 sound banks:
Bass, Lead, Pluck, Drum, Metal, Static, Spark
Each one totally tweakable with onboard sliders, drive, EQ, filter & CV control.

🎚️ 5 trigger modes
πŸŽ›️ 7-octave jumps
πŸ” CV modulation madness
πŸ”₯ Accent inputs that perform like a beast

This isn’t your grandad’s oscillator — it’s controlled chaos in a rack-sized box. And it looks wild doing it.

πŸ‘️ Watch it spark.
🎢 Hear it scream.
πŸ’‘ Build your next track around it.

Weston Precision Audio: SV1 & SF1 | Full Demo and Review


video upload by Happy Mag

"Tasteful design and even tastier tone — that’s Weston Precision Audio! πŸŽ›️
Met Devin at Buchla and Friends earlier this year and it was an absolute treat πŸ™Œ

Starting with the SV1: a dual stereo VCA with both vintage and clean paths — four VCAs in total πŸ”₯
Vintage brings warm saturation with discrete transistors, while the clean side is modern, transparent, and tight 🎯
Run it in mono or stereo, link controls, bias your CV, and boost gain up to +6dB.
Need grit? Crank the input or flip the Overdrive switch for creamy distortion or sharp clipping πŸ’₯
And yes — zero-crossing detection eliminates clicks from fast envelopes. Smooth as 🧈

Next up: the SF1, a stereo or dual-mono VCF with two identical 4-pole filters.
Switch between LP, HP, BP — or tap into notch, all-pass, and phaser outputs too 🌈
Link the filters or keep them independent. Modulate everything, shape stereo motion, or use it as a sine oscillator with 1V/oct tracking 🎢
It’s a filter, it’s an oscillator, it’s a full-on sound design weapon πŸ§ͺ

Head to WestonAudio.com to dive deeper.
And shoutout to Pig Hog for keeping the patch bay clean πŸ—⚡️

Special thanks to Pig Hog for the cables!

Frap Tools: BRENSO | Full Demo and Review


video upload by Happy Mag

"The Frap Tools BRENSO is more than just a dual oscillator—it's a modern homage to the west coast synthesis tradition pioneered by Don Buchla in the 1970s. As a complex oscillator, BRENSO offers a dense web of internal modulation, wave shaping, and signal routing options that invite experimentation, creativity, and highly expressive sound design.

Let’s break down what makes BRENSO special—and why it’s a standout tool for modular synthesists and the perfect place to start Happy Mag's Synth Month 2025 journey!

🧠 What Is a Complex Oscillator?

In synthesis terms, “complex” usually refers to waveforms that go beyond simple shapes like sine, triangle, square, or sawtooth. These richer, more dynamic tones are achieved through audio-rate modulation—one oscillator affecting another at high speed to produce new, harmonically rich content.

To that end, BRENSO includes two triangle-core analog oscillators, each with four outputs. These oscillators are designed to interact, cross-modulate, and shape each other in ways that transform simple waveforms into entirely new sonic terrain.

🎨 We Love the Colour-Coded Interface!

One of BRENSO’s most elegant features is its colour-coded layout. This isn’t just for show—it reflects functional sections of the module, making navigation and patching intuitive:

🟒 Green Section – Frequency control for oscillator one
🟑 Yellow Section – Frequency control for oscillator two
⚪ White Section – Timbre shaping (via wavefolders and shapers)
πŸ”΄ Red Section – Amplitude control (via a four-quadrant multiplier for AM/RM)

These sections are organised spatially and visually, so once you understand the color scheme, you're halfway to mastering the module.

πŸ”„ Modulation Without the Patch Cables

BRENSO encourages semi-normalled patching. Many modulation paths are internally routed by default using dashed lines on the panel. For example, the green sine wave is often pre-routed as a modulator for the yellow oscillator—no cable required.

This internal routing makes it easy to get rich interactions going quickly, but BRENSO never limits you: patching a cable into a jack overrides the normalization, giving you complete flexibility.
