April Easter Jam

video upload by ranzee

"A whole bunch of hardware synthesizers!

The sequences you hear are from my modular system which includes VCZIII oscillator, filter from Feedback Modules, Behringer System 100m and 2500 modules. Also some Roland System 500 gear. The sequences are mainly from the Korg SQ64 - but I've also used Behringer 960 to do some things, as well as getting the SQ64 to trigger the 182 sequencer - see if you can spot it :)

Vocoder bit was done on the Roland E4. Other strings and sounds were from Streichfett, Pro 800 and Novation Peak. Effects are MXR Flanger or in the Modular system: Strymon Magneto, Intellijel Sealegs, Feedback Modules 106 Chorus."

New Eurorack Modules Coming From Doepfer

Doepfer will be showcasing the above new modules at SUPERBOOTH25. Details on each follow.
Check with dealers on the right for upcoming availability.

Module A-119-2 is kind of a dual version of module A-119 without envelope follower. Instead two amplifiers are available and the module width is 4 HP only.

The module contains two amplifiers with separately adjustable amplification levels. Each channel is equipped with an overload display. The module can be used also for stereo signals, e.g. the stereo output of a smartphone.

Controls and displays:

Level 1/2: manual control of the amplification in the range 0 - about 45.

Overload 1/2: overload LED, begins to light up for output levels beyond about 10Vpp (+/-5V)

In 1: audio input 1 (monophonic or stereophonic, see technical details)

In 2: audio input 2 (monophonic)

Out 1/2: audio output (monophonic)

Technical details:

for higher amplifications the two amplifiers can be daisy-chained

normalling options: the signal applied to socket In 1 can be normalled to socket In 2 in different ways by means of a jumper on the pc board:

socket In 1 is connected via a mono patch cable (standard patch cable) to a monophonic signal and this signal is normalled to socket In 2 (i.e. the same input signal for both sub-units): jumper on pin header JP2 in upper position

socket In 1 is connected via a 3.5 mm stereo TRS cable to a stereophonic signal and the second channel of the stereo signal is normalled to socket In 2: jumper on pin header JP2 in lower position

no normalling: jumper is removed from pin header JP2

all inputs and outputs are DC coupled. Thus the module can be used also for the amplifications of control voltages.

Infinite Machinery Demo by Todd Barton

video upload by Todd Barton

"Just got turned onto these cool modules from Infinite Machinery which is located here in my little town. Really digging them. Enjoy these brief test drives."

Todd Barton's Patreon: / synthtodd

The Infinite Machinery Hexa VCA is a 6 channel VCA with DC coupling and a unique normalization function. All in 12 HP

Signal inputs are DC coupled.
CV input response, 0 to +5V

Maximum amplification is unity gain, or 1.

Channels with no CV input will have CV normalized
to the CV of the channel above. This cascading of CV
values is defined in two groups, channels 1 - 3 and 4 - 6.

For example: If CV is patched to channel 1 and no CV
patched into channels 2 & 3 - Channels 2 & 3 will
follow the CV of channel 1.

Patch CV into channel 2 and nothing into channel 3
then channel 3 will follow the CV of channel 2.
The same hold true for channels 4 - 6, with 4 being
the start of the CV cascade.

Module depth - 34mm

Current draw - 40mA +-

Make Noise Introduces the Jumbler

video upload by MAKEN0ISE

Press release follows:

Make Noise is proud to announce Jumbler!!

"With Jumbler..., we jumble one or we jumble many."

Jumbler is a six by six channel analog signal combiner and distributor for the New Universal Synthesizer System or any Eurorack modular synthesizer. Jumble is one of the New Universal Synthesizer System concepts where the routings of a patch could be re-configured, or jumbled, instantly via voltage control to produce variations on a theme.

Jumbler gives you powerful two-parameter access to the rearrangement of both origins and destinations for up to six modular signals. One to six inputs are routed to one to six outputs, in an order determined by the Rotate control, and combination determined by the Radiate control. Unlike a simple switch module, Jumbler’s analog VCA-based design is specially geared for smooth transitions and hybrid signals.

Jumbler is a great module for hybrid control voltage mashing, complex waveform mixing, on-the-fly effects re-routing, gate and clock re-combinations and more. Some folks have said it is like patching a stack of 6 RxMx circuits.

Mix and Match up to six signals for up to six destinations
Easy to use as a voltage controlled mixer or continuously crossfading switch
Dynamically blend waveforms from a single or multiple oscillators
Create hybrid rhythms with gate or clock sources
Change up effects routings on the fly
Create feedback and matrix-mixer patches
All analog design featuring 36 VCAs
You’ve done some patchin’... now it is time to try some jumblin’...

Width: 10hp
Max Depth (incl. power cable): 43 mm
Power:
178mA@ +12V
92mA @ -12V
MSRP: $259
Availability: Shipping now!

No.1 APEX Eurorack Delays

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I am not sure if there's an APEX (best of the best) delay in eurorack. If there was, I would never ended up with so many of them. The 'problem' with eurorack is that each manufacturer adds something special. They have to. I guess my 'problem' is the autistic need to make 'one brand' cases instead of a colorful patch blanket. I never fully realized I had so many delays and even though there is no good and bad in euro, I could easily build a subjective top five - in any order - except for number 1. The top spot has been taken for seven years, but is now on the verge of retirement.

I'll be using a stack of Plaits and Rings as a reference sound, so prepare for a 20 minute 'spa'. In the end, there is an APEX delay after all. I'll add chapters later, for now I want you to relax, listen, maybe even do something else, and when you hear something remarkable, check what's playing. Spin FX delays like FX-AID are not included, but mentioned in general because they're not just delays. I also think the karaoke-chip delays (e.g. Bruxa, Lyra-8 FX) are too exotic but APEX in their own field. I also didn't include any analog/BBD delays because I have no experience with them. This is not a competitive review, it's a lab tour.

Please comment if I overlooked a delay that beats everything else, I don't have/know all of them. It's also cool if you'd share your personal favorite!

Cheers,
Robert"

High energy modular synth performance by Stephen McCaul

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Here's a high energy modular synth performance by Chief Noisemaker Stephen McCaul.

The bottom case is a six voice case with Incus Iteritas Alia (2), Debel Iteritas Alia, Tymp Legio, Manis Iteritas Alia, Virt Iter Legio + Ampla Legio.

There is a Librae Legio for the percussion submix (paralleling the main mix) and an Electus Versio on a send. The rhythm sequencing is from an experimental prototype that isn't really product worthy.

Pitch sequencing comes from Opp Ned. And the Xer Mixa mixer ties it all together.

The top case is an effects rig for another project but i used a Fala Versio and a Yester Versio in that case for some additional effects."

Fonitronik PS3100 / a triple bandpass vactrol resonator for eurorack / just a few experiments

video upload by BRiES

"I had the pleasure of being able to borrow this module from a friendly patcher and DIY builder. Let's explore a little bit of how it sounds together. I want to try sending some field recordings of trains and other vehicles through this module next, I'm sure that would sound really cool (maybe that's something for another video). What would you send through this?
