Tre Modular - State of Mind (GEST first look)

video upload by Tre Modular

"In this video we want to show you State of Mind's GEST (Gesture) engine.

State of Mind can record what you play. GEST records two kinds of things. Knob movements, and CV with gates.

Knob gestures. Turn any of the four channel knobs and GEST records the movement: a filter sweep, a slow swell, a modulation shape drawn by hand. You name it.

CV + Gate. Patch in any source, a keyboard, a sequencer, an LFO, and GEST records it as real voltage, a thousand samples a second, up to 48 seconds per take, negative voltages included. It plays back exactly as it came in, so a take works for pitch as well as modulation. A take can wait for your first note, and it can fit itself to the length of what's already playing.

Each channel holds its own loop, so you can record one, layer the next, and so on. The whole four-channel arrangement can be saved to one of eight slots, to be recalled or chained into a sequence.

GEST can also be combined with other engines. One channel can loop a recorded sweep while for example RSG plays melodies on the others.

Enjoy!

YOLA MPE Test — 4-Voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer Control via CV

video upload by Gm Xe

"YOLA MPE Controller — Test Notes

In this test, YOLA is used as an MPE control terminal to play four analog oscillators polyphonically, with independent CV and Gate control for each voice.

The setup uses the magnetic CV expansion module, providing:

4 × polyphonic CV outputs
4 × Gate outputs
Buchla-format and Eurorack-format CV support
Demo 1 — 4-Voice Analog Polyphony

One YOLA demo unit sends four independent polyphonic CV signals to four analog oscillators, with four Gate outputs controlling four separate envelopes.

Each oscillator has its own character, while four individual LFOs modulate the dynamics of four LPGs.

The result is a fully polyphonic performance controlled directly from YOLA's multi-touch MPE interface.

Demo 2 — YOLA + GMXE 700 Voice

A second YOLA demo unit is connected to a GMXE 700 Voice via MIDI.

After approximately two minutes, the system switches into CV recording mode for another test.

"It's finally time.... for Capicola! I'm couldn't be more excited to announce that my brainchild is ready for release. Thanks to Hermetic Modular for making the amazing Alchemy Lab platform that made it all possible."

Code: https://github.com/heavylight-industr...

"Time stretching, in real time! Capicola stretches audio out while staying aligned to the rhythm of the input. Give your signal a glitched-out character without missing a beat. Capicola turns audio into envelope followers and triggers that can either self-modulate or feed to the rest of your rack. It’s a dynamic audio effect and CV utility in a 12HP package."

Why doesn't Digital Feedback Blow Up Like Analog?

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"When I posted my first Plexiphon video, I got a few comments like ‘how about Bruxa x Plexiphon’, or better, ‘how about two Bruxae x Plexiphon’.
I think I can answer that now. Bruxa is a dominating module. This simply means, whatever you patch up, Bruxa is going to demand all attention. New to modular? Bruxa is a Bruxa is a delay/filter using a crappy karaoke toy chip. Sorry, it’s the ‘lo-fi delay’ that reached a cult status in the legendary Soma Lyra-8 Orga(ni)smic Synthesizer.
And then there’s the PoliMaths vs Maths discussion. Maybe they should have called it the PolyFunction, because it’s not Maths. It’s more like a ‘polyphonic function sequencer’, where a function is nothing more than a rise and fall. A slope or envelope depending on the Coast you’re on. It’s an attack/decay shape to sculpt a sound.
In this patch, I am using Echophon – the echo – as a clock, using the clock divider output. It’s a cool example of working with limitations. There’s no clock module in this case, but any ‘repeat’ that ticks is a clock. So today it’s not a tape delay, it’s just sending blips to PoliMaths’ activation IN. PoliMaths is like an eight channel sample and hold. When a trigger comes in, the module ‘activates’ by reading all knob positions (sampling) and holding them until the next activation. The channel index will decide which of the eight channels is affected. Depending on the SPAN mode/color, the channel will either be addressable (white), rotating (yellow) or fire all (cyan blue). If you’ve updated your PM, there’s a purple mode too (binary logic).
In this patch, the eight envelopes are distributed to various effect modules like Bruxa, more Bruxa and Plexiphon. Depending on knob settings (and especially ABSORB) Bruxa can make percussive sounds with its crappy chip. So what can we do with it? We can make a drum machine that nobody else has.
The patch itself is turning my effects units into an improvised lo-fi CMOS drum machine and Plexiphon is adding a bit of reverb. Even on full strength it can’t compete with the two Bruxae.
There’s an intermezzo where I’ll patch a long loop between Echophon, Mimeophon, Bruxa 1, Bruxa 2, Plexiphon and QPAS. In plain English, it’s making a long FX chain, but the end of chain is also the beginning. A snake biting its own tail. It’s like taking ugly feedback noise, and then try to sculpt it into something that faintly sounds like music – or a score from an 80’s horror sci-fi B movie with lots of sax and violins.
I was expecting something like throwing a mentos in a bottle of Coca Cola, but it didn’t happen. Instead, a nice abstract feedback patch emerged. It turned out to be pretty civilized.
In this video I discovered that feedback patching with digital modules is very different from using analog modules. A well designed digital effect doesn’t explode, it stays clear from crashing into digital brick wall and self destruct. In fact, digital feedback patching is more like continuous sound on sound dubbing. If you’re into chaotic feedback patching, you’ll benefit from adding at least one analog module, like a Serge wavefolder, waveshaper, filter or resonant EQ – or any other brand. Just make sure it’s using real analog components and real voltage instead of coded error handlers, limiters, exceptions and guardrails. In the analog domain, chaos is only bound to the rules of Mother Nature.
The ‘crappy drum machine’ patch is decorated by a second take with Error Instruments x This Is Not Rocketscience Kharper. I am running it through dual Bruxae and Plexiphon, where the PP gets modulation from Bruxa’s mysteriously labeled CV outputs. They basically contain CV related to Bruxa’s internal chip rumble. Nothing special, but super cool as a mod-source."

Tom Legio: Analog-inspired tom voice on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Tom Legio is an analog-inspired tom voice with plenty of punch, saturation, and wavefolding for taking things well beyond traditional tom sounds.

Get a Legio module and swap to this firmware today:
https://noiseengineering.us/products/...

Let's start with Decay. This controls how long the toms ring out, from short, tight hits to longer booms.

Punch changes the impact of every hit.

The Tone switch adds different amounts of wavefolding, adding extra harmonics and crunch to the sound.

And if you want to push things further, the Saturation switch gives you three levels of drive at the output.

Pitch lets you tune Tom across a wide range, and a quick press of the Pitch encoder also mutes the voice.

You can bring other sounds into the audio inputs as well, and mix them directly with Tom's output.

Tom is just one way to build a percussion section with Legio. You'll also find Snare, Kick, Klang, Tymp, Bos, Cymbal, Marimba, and plenty of other voices and effects to swap for free with a USB connection.

9/27/26 Testing the Bard Frequency Vault + 2050 + TX-1 clone + (…)

video upload by Cfpp0

"9/27/26 Bard Frequency Vault + 2050 + TX-1 clone + Alesis MIDIVERB II + Ladik S-143 & U-202 + MFB dual LFO & dual ADSR + Peavey DDL-3 + ALM Pamela’s New Workout

The racks are ridiculously high now and I think we’ve finally reached our limit. We’ve pretty much got everything Metasonix and Zerosum Inertia have made, and we don’t really need more tube modules. But all of the sudden we started selling again on Reverb, so we got a used Bard Frequency Vault on Modwiggler. I was curious how it compares to the Metasonix RK8 Filterwall. This particular Frequency Vault is wired to a tiny power module and an external power supply to heat the tubes, so we’re able to run it off of a 4ms power supply, along with the 2050 module and the TX-1 clone, which also have external power supplies for the tubes. This video is the first test of the module, with the 2050 audio output running into the main audio input on the Frequency Vault and one of the stereo outputs on the Frequency Vault running to the TX-1 clone."

Djupviks Stereo Bunker Archaeology // The Reverb That Plays Itself

video upload by Lesjamusic

"Two Bunkers. One circuit. Neither of them willing to be quiet.

A walkthrough of the Stereo Bunker Archeology from Djupviks Elektronik. Each channel's envelope follower is wired across to the other side's filter and feedback, so the two halves push each other around until the whole thing plays itself. It's grainy, unstable and occasionally rude, which is exactly what you want from a broken reverb.

Want the Paul Virilio backstory and how the reverb and static circuits work? Watch my Bunker Archeology MkII video first:

Stereo Bunker Archeology is now available in limited quantities. You can purchase your copy through Hause of Hylin (Australia), Green Mod (USA), or directly from Djupviks Elektronik’s Bandcamp page today, Friday, October 2, for Bandcamp Friday.

Master Your Modular Rhythms! // SIGMA from Vostok Instruments

video upload by DivKid

"Sigma from Vostok Instruments takes clocks, triggers, gates, even audio (good destructive fun) and turns them into gates you can control and modulate the length of. Sounds simple, but the ability to control gate length, add NOT outputs as gate delays and the logic section which takes Sigma to a whopping 23 outputs is fantastic!"

"Sigma is a multi-channel gate processor with a strong focus on rhythm and time-event manipulation.

The module generates up to 23 simultaneous gate signals directly related to the four gate inputs, allowing you to fire an entire array of synced events in your patch by just moving pots and connecting cables.

The core of the module is composed of four identical CV-controlled gate-length processors that create exact copies of your gate signals with adjustable length.

The Logic section creates new events from each length-processed pair using analog Boolean circuits.

Pair Sigma with a trigger sequencer or clock generator, and a bunch of drum modules or voices to get a vast amount of new rhythmical patterns on the fly.

- Four CV-controlled Gate Length Processors.

- Fully adjustable Length from 1ms to infinite.

- Dedicated NOT Output per channel.

- Dedicated Logic section adding 15 extra gate outputs with AND, NAND, OR, NOR and XOR operations for each pair of channels.

- Hybrid design combining a digital length processor with fully analog logic circuits to ensure minimal latency."

Marimba Legio: Percussive physical-modeling voice on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Marimba Legio is a physical-modeling voice and resonator based on the sounds of struck and bowed resonant bars.

Get a Legio module and swap to this firmware today:
https://noiseengineering.us/products/...

Let's start with Type. This gives you three different resonant materials to work with, from woody marimba tones to metallic bars and glassy tubes.

Decay controls how long those resonances ring out, from short percussive hits to long, sustained tones.

Tone changes the character of the strike itself, going from softer, rounder hits to much brighter attacks.

Then there's Mode. You can use Marimba as a traditional struck voice, or bring external audio into the Excite inputs to strike or bow those resonators in completely different ways.

And since Pitch tracks 1 volt per octave, Marimba can be sequenced just like an oscillator.

Today your Legio is a marimba. Tomorrow it can be a supersaw, a snare, a wavefolder, or something considerably stranger. And they're all free to swap over a USB connection.

Plexiphon | The World's Most Haunting Reverb Is Back

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Nobody has said it out loud, but Plexiphon is definitely Erbe-Verb 2.0.
I will prove it by running it with the old Shared System. I replaced Echophon and Erbe-Verb with Mimeophon and Plexiphon but the Shared remains the Shared. However, when experimenting with different sources - and you'd love the #VHIKK X as a guest - Plexiphon suddenly sounds as new as it's designed to be. When I made the 'What is a Plexus' video, I used XAOC Samarkanda to make my own network so if you want to learn what a plexus is, check it out."
