WAEVE82 First Play

video upload by The 5th Volt

"This is my first time playing with the WAEVE82 wavetable synthesizer from tangible waves. Here in the VF mini package complete with full MIDI and audio connectivity and MultiFX module for lush reverbs, shimmers and a dozen other effects. I'll make more tutorial style videos over the next few weeks, but wanted to give you a taste of what it sounds like. Personally I think it sounds amazing, but you be the judge!

This module can be found at the tangible waves website:
https://tangiblewaves.com

All sounds recorded directly from the rack into my H6 recorder with minimal EQ and compression in Da Vinci Resolve."

Parapulse – Morphing Noise Generator for Eurorack Modular by Orpho

video upload by HOX808

"Parapulse is a Eurorack noise generator with an integrated filter and frequency modulation. From crisp white noise to warm pink noise, it opens up a wide range of textures, atmospheric layers, and organic impulses.

From icy fog and cosmic dust to Geiger counter clicks, paranormal intergalactic tones, and fine vinyl crackle, *Parapulse* puts noise in motion.

In this demo video, Parapulse is used together with the Bode Frequency Shifter for sound manipulation. CV control is also provided by the [Orpho Voltglider (https://www.orpho.de/voltglider/) and a CV joystick.

More information at [www.orpho.de](https://www.orpho.de)"

Googlish (original German below):

The Parapulse Noise Generator—equipped with an integrated filter, frequency modulation, and the ability to transition seamlessly from white to pink noise—offers a rich palette of soundscapes for experimental musicians and sound designers. The module provides a wide variety of noise types, ranging from crisp, high-frequency white noise to soft, deep pink noise, making it ideal for generating atmospheric textures or serving as a foundation for percussive elements and effects. The built-in filter allows users to precisely shape the frequency content of the noise, enabling the creation of both subtle timbres and dramatic effects. Frequency modulation further expands the sonic spectrum by facilitating dynamic shifts and modulations within the noise, resulting in complex sonic textures. The seamless adjustment between noise colors—free of audible steps or interruptions—offers a unique level of flexibility and control that would not be possible with a conventional white noise generator.

Original German:

Der Parapulse Noise-Generator, ausgestattet mit einem integrierten Filter, Frequenzmodulation und der Möglichkeit, nahtlos von weißem zu rosa Rauschen zu wechseln, bietet eine reiche Palette an Soundlandschaften für experimentelle Musiker und Sounddesigner. Das Modul bietet eine Vielzahl von Rauscharten, von klarem, hochfrequentem weißem Rauschen bis hin zu weichem, tiefem rosa Rauschen, ideal für die Erzeugung atmosphärischer Texturen oder als Grundlage für perkussive Elemente und Effekte. Das eingebaute Filter ermöglicht es dem Benutzer, die Frequenzanteile des Rauschens präzise zu formen, um sowohl subtile Klangfarben als auch dramatische Effekte zu erzielen. Die Frequenzmodulation erweitert das klangliche Spektrum zusätzlich, indem sie dynamische Veränderungen und Modulationen im Rauschen ermöglicht, was zu komplexen Klangtexturen führt. Die nahtlose Einstellung zwischen den Rauschfarben ohne hörbare Schritte oder Unterbrechungen bietet eine einzigartige Flexibilität und Kontrolle, was mit einem herkömmlichen White-Noise-Generator so nicht möglich wäre.

Getting Started: Patching with Mults in Eurorack

video upload by Noise Engineering

"When patching your modular system, it’s common to want one signal to control multiple things. Mults, short for multiples, simply split one signal into several copies.

As part of our Getting Started series, here's our blog that goes over the types of mults and how they can bring a patch to life:

'SIEGFRIED' | VC RES EQ + VBR | Serge Modular | Episode 11

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"The VC RES EQ is big, very big and the VBR (Variable Bandwidth Filter) makes it even bigger. But even then, it's not a combo that would appeal to the 'mainstream' eurorack audience. The 4U version joins both modules under one panel and is called 'SIEGFRIED', inspired by Wagner's dragonslayer in the classic Ring des Nibelungen epic 15 hour opera which ends in Ragnarok - the Apocalyptic end of the Gods. Now that's a much better setting! We need mist, heroes, dragons, Gods and something close to Mount Doom. Tolkien didn't like Wagner's work at all, in fact, he hated it. With this eurorack combo you can now create your own adventure, keep the ring for yourself and throw Frodo into Mount Doom.

This is one of my favorite videos so far and I just LOVE the sound of the VC RES EQ. The VBR is added to tame the harsh sounds that often come from the 'pet dragon', but if you play it with your fingertips, prepare for myths and legends.

As always, this video is not sponsored, but I am enjoying a small 'artist discount' from Random*Source because I make videos like this. Dear Serge, if you're watching this, THANK YOU for being Serge and thank you Random*Source for keeping the legend vibrant, alive and kicking."

Nyquist Nightmare

Audio Mangling Modulator/Demodulator

This module is a modulator/demodulator. The top four knobs interact with each other to take a signal and mangle it beyond all recognition, or if you're patient and lucky, let the signal come through mostly unchanged.

What is going on there? you ask. The input is used to frequency-modulate a VCO that can oscillate beyond anybody's hearing range. The resulting (possibly ultrasonic) signal frequency-modulates a second identical VCO. This leads to the kind of signal degradation you might expect from an AM radio transmission. Or a short wave signal fighting its way through a hurricane.

The rest of the knobs control filtering; high-pass to remove the truly ground-shaking rumbles the top for knobs can generate, and resonant low-pass to get the harsh high pitches out of the signal, and emphasize (for example) the frequency range of human speech, if you want to pass old movie dialogue through this.

Also included are a wet/dry control (while prototyping this module I would sometimes spend minutes looking for the perfect knob settings to allow a signal through just to realize the signal source had stopped playing), a CV input for the low-pass filter with an attenuator knob, and a effect volume knob.

Some fun things to try:

with zero input, try to get a modem sound!
connect a simple waveform and massage the top four knobs to fold the wave in surprising ways
David Lynch. Put David Lynch through this.
turn the resonance of the low-pass VCF up and use this as a VCO (not 1V/oct, I'm afraid
Turn both "Carrier" knobs all the way down, so the VCOs are stalled, and listen to the signal bash its way through

Playing the Prophet through the most beautiful delay

video upload by Julian "J3PO" Pollack

"I am borrowing the Knif Audio BBD and it's truly the holy grail of bucket brigade delay units. There are only a handful of them in existence, and I'm lucky to get to use it in my studio for a while. The Prophet 10 was an obvious choice to pair with the Knif BBD. I've been getting to know the Knif BBD and decided to record a 10-minute improvisation for you to be able to hear how beautiful these sounds are. Hope you enjoy. Endless inspiration with these two instruments. They are not only beautiful sounding, but beautiful looking and feeling as well."

Analog oscillators hit different: exploring the SED-CSM and QSQ

video upload by SynthDad

"I dive deep into the raw sounds and harmonic richness of the SED-CSM, a complete analog synth voice from Rides in the Storm. With its dual oscillators, sub-octave generator, ring modulator, and a dedicated noise source, this module provides a massive foundation for everything from earth-shaking bass to evolving drones.
SED-CSM has two LFOs which can go into audio-rate, reaching up to 6.6 kHz and a VCF equipped with a dedicated overdrive switch. The SED-CSM offers endless possibilities for aggressive textures and squelchy, acid-inspired leads.
Complementing this is the QSQ; an 8-channel performance sequencer and MIDI-to-CV interface that serves as the brain of the operation. I show how the QSQ’s 16 analog-style rotary encoders allow for intuitive, hands-on melodic creation. Leveraging features like Euclidean rhythms, per-step probability, and integrated LFO/envelope generation, the QSQ compliments SED-CSM’s raw oscillators.

A Guide to Synthesizer Filters (and how to use them to make music)

video upload by The Unperson

"In today's guide to synthesizer filters I break down filters and show how you can use them to make music. Whether you’re working with eurorack, hardware, software, analog, or digital synths, this guide should help you further understand filters.

We start with the basics, looking at what filters do and how low pass, high pass, and band pass filters shape sound. From there, I move into modulation, showing how to use envelopes and LFOs to add movement, rhythm, and expression to your patches.

I also cover filter self oscillation and how filters can become sound sources in their own right. Towards the end, we get into more advanced techniques like filter banks and stereo filtering to create wider, more complex sounds and mixes.

If you’re into synthesis, sound design, or electronic music production, this will give you techniques you can immediately apply to your own tracks.

Topics covered include synthesizer filters, eurorack and modular synthesis, sound design, envelopes, LFO modulation, filter self oscillation, filter banks, stereo filters, and electronic music production.

Perfect for fans of synthesis, sound design, eurorack, modular systems, and electronic music production.

New module! Dual Retro Vco

video upload by Radical Frequencies Modular

"Listen the new Radical Frequencies Dual Retro VCO playing an arpeggio , showing all waveforms and making Pulse with modulation and Hard Sync between the vcos . It goes through the RF Mixer and then to Diode Dream Vcf as it suits this oscillator perfectly! #eurorack #modularsynth #radicalfrequenciesmodular #dualretrovco #drvco #diodedreamvcf #analogsynth"

"Handmade Dual VCO of discrete core capable of internal FM cross modulations - Hard sync and Ring Modulator

• Analog discrete saw core oscillators with Saw, Pulse, Triangle and Ring Modulation wave outputs.The sound is warm and fat, emphasizing odd harmonics for this big retro sound. My purpose here is to approach the sound of classic synths from 70s, that we all loved.
• The SAW wave produces rich bass frequencies, sweet mids and smooth highs but overall, it is still well balanced across the full frequency range. The Triangle wave is almost perfect in shape with no buzzy hum sound. The pulse wave can produce that chorus-like phasing effect, when using an LFO to modulate the PWM input and does so in a very unique way, as it changes the phase of the signal as well.
• Two identical VCOs : VCO ALPHA and VCO BETA, with the ability of hard sync as each VCO syncs internally with the other. Using the attenuator knob for SYNC, you can go from zero to soft sync(11-12 o’clock) to hard sync when the knob is fully CW. For syncing you just need to turn CW, the sync knob of the VCO you want to be the slave. Don’t open both the sync knobs at the same time unless you want to make some weird sounds.
• There are external sync inputs for each VCO as well. External oscillators can be used as masters, just feed the output of the oscillator of your preference, into the sync input or either ALPHA or BETA. Just remember to feed a saw or a square wave, into the SYNC input. This is very important in order to sync the oscillator. A ramp wave it will not sync at all! (The RF DPVCO for example is a ramp out VCO and if you want to use it as master you must invert the signal first.)
• Both ALPHA and BETA track 5 octaves accurately, tempco resistors are attached to the tuning ICs CA3046 on both VCOs.
Separate voltage regulators for each oscillator can achieve the best sounding results without drift or bleed pitch, between VCOs.
• Both VCOs go from a relative fast LFO range with the coarse tuning knob fully CCW, up to high frequency oscillation.
• Octave Switches of 3 positions: 1 octave down - , zero , 1 octave up +, are available and make patching, fast and intuitive.
• There are internal normalisations for exponential as well as linear FM and both have independent EXP FM and LIN FM, attenuators.
• You can select the wave for the internal FM buss via the front panel switches .Options are Triangle and SAW. The internal FM wave, is independent per VCO as well.
• There are also internal normalisations for PWM, where each VCO modulates the pulse width, of the other and both use the triangle waveform.
• There is a PW offset, per VCO - negative phase pulse width at CCW to + positive phase at CW and 50-50 duty cycle square wave, in the middle of the knob.
• Ring Modulation section is a separate feature where X and Y inputs are internally connected with the VCOs as well. It has 2 inputs, X and Ψ and one out, RM. The inputs are internally connected to the internal FM buss switch of triangle - saw selector.
VCO ALPHA is internally connected into Ψ input and VCO BETA, into X input. You can feed the RM inputs any wave you desire from other VCOs as well .
• An external patch cable breaks the normalisation of all internal connections, via input jacks. (EXP FM, LIN FM, PWM, SYNC, X Ψ)

• Important note about tuning : The vcos need at least 30 minutes warm up before using it for good tracking. Also when you have to tune the vcos it’s better the octave switches to be in the middle position and all the fm and sync knobs must be closed (CCW)

• Large range of sounds with countless sweet spots - ultra stable tuning for FM sounds by using the FM and SYNC knobs simultaneously - fat basses, classic leads and drones. Feed the DRVCO into a good filter and you will enjoy it as it was meant to be! The VCF that I suggest is the RF Diode Dream VCF as it is a ladder filter and suits it perfectly! Of course any other filter of your taste can be used with great results."
