"This is a quick demo of the new Catalyst Audio Electroserf MiG Thruster vacuum tube noise generator module showing some of the sonic textures that it can produce.
The output of the Thruster goes to the MiG VCA module and then directly to the digital recorder with no external effects or modifications to the sound, other than a bit of resonance "crunch" added by the VCA near the end of the video.
The Catalyst Audio Electroserf modules are now available to purchase at quality synthesizer retailers."
It is based on ideas presented in an AES article by Ralph W. Burhans
Using the switches, pots and signal input, you can create patterns as simple or as complex as you like.
It is not a 6 stage sequencer as most settings enable more than one channel to be active at once and the CV output is a sum of the voltages set by the pots connected to the active stages.
The switches enable extremely long patterns to be generated. The signal input allows you to change and randomise patterns on the fly, but it fun to flick the switches back’n’forth (centre is off); sometimes you might even return to a previous pattern. It is also fun to feedback a gate output into the signal input to create shorter loops that can be altered with the switches as well.
As a timbre generator, it can add harmonics to sine waves or step in and out of pseudo random noise as the signal and/or clock are CV controlled. It might be good to feed the output to a VCF to smooth some of the edges, but it depends on how noisy you want it.
"To demonstrate the character of the Glowing Orb stereo state variable filter a series of filter sweeps were recorded. The audio passed from the Glowing Orb, through a SideCar VCA, Instruo Cuir output module and then to a Sound Devices MixPre 6 field recorder. No additional audio processing has been carried out apart from level adjustment."
"Glowing Orb is a new vintage-voiced, Stereo State Variable Filter from WORNG Electronics. It takes the SSI2140 filter core (based on the SSM2040 filter which gives the Prophet 5 Rev 2 its big and beefy sound) and configures it in a -12dB/oct SVF circuit based on the Oberheim SEM design, combining characteristics of two of the best loved, best sounding vintage filters in a unique combination. Of course a module from WORNG Electronics has to include 21st century features like stereo operation, volt per octave tracking and a gain compensated drive circuit which enables an extraordinarily wide tonal palette.
At 10hp, Glowing Orb is perfect for any sized system large or small, and packs in just the controls you need to keep things compact while still being incredibly usable, with space around the controls designed for human fingers.
The module features stereo input, with normalling for mono to stereo operation if only the left input is patched. The stereo output switches between sweepable Low Pass/Notch/High Pass, and Band Pass filter slopes, on a single output pair to simplify patching.
"In this third and final video manual for Swells, we cover Momentary FX: Freeze, Reverse and Burst. We also explain TRIG input assignment and other miscellaneous functions."
"What exactly is Link? What can it do? Where did it come from and how will it help me?
Link is a wireless sync protocol that keeps music apps and devices in time — all the time.
No master clock.
No complex routing.
No drift corrections every 5 minutes.
Open an app with Link enabled and it syncs up effortlessly. Tempo changes update everywhere. Start playing, stop playing — everything locks.
Simple. Elegant. Powerful.

Syncing with hardware and Eurorack to the DAW using the Circuit Happy Missing Link ML:2m
"NEW Firmware: Introducing ‘Rhythm Explorer’ available now for ML:2m and Missing Link Junior!
Rhythm explorer mode allows you to disrupt your clocks with some maths and chaos, providing new rhythms into your music instantly. Instead of a regular steady clock, turn on Rhythm Explorer mode to introduce looping patterns as your clock with the ability to choose the number of Steps, Pulses and introduce Chance and Jitter! How about using a Euclidean rhythm as your clock pattern!? Well, you can and the results are super fun and can provide some exciting results.
Simply head over to the web interface and update your device now. Check out the documentation for details.
Circuit Happy products now available in select shops around the world."
Check with dealers on the right for pricing and availability.
Pics and details of the Missing Link Junior via Perfect Circuit.
"Updated from its larger predecessor, Circuit Happy's Missing Link, Junior is both more powerful and more compact, affording you better synchronizaion of your hardware and software electronic music tools. Central to its operation is the ability to utilize Ableton Link, allowing it to sync with your DAW and other Link-compatible devices via Wi-Fi. Missing Link, Junior can connect both to existing networks or create a Wi-Fi Access Point for other devices to use when a network isn't present. As a bonus, it also outputs MIDI clock over USB and can be used to keep your MIDI gear in sync with the TRS Type-A output. With two configurable outputs A and B, you can setup the Missing Link, Junior to serve a variety of purposes: analog clocks at different division settings, Din Sync-style Run/Stop gates, and more. Simply put, the Missing Link, Junior is your be all, end all compact clocking solution.
The Missing Link, Junior Features
Desktop clock and sync generator Ableton Link compatible Configurable outputs A and B serve a variety of purposes Type A MIDI TRS output USB-C connectivity Compatible with modular synths, DIN-Sync gear, MIDI instruments, DAWs, and more Wi-Fi access point when no networks are available Product Details

"In today's demo and tutorial, we have a bit of fun with the new USB Solo mk2 from our friends at Kenton Electronics. The handy little gadget builds on Kenton's previous MIDI to CV converters, and allows one to convert MIDI from USB or 5-pin DIN to a variety of CV signals, including pitch (1V/Oct), gate and trigger, 3 aux channels for CC, velocity, aftertouch, and more. It also supports MIDI clock, allowing one to synchronize Eurorack and other analog synthesizers with your DAW or MIDI sequencer. Additional features include a built-in LFO and envelope.
Big Merp decided he wanted to be a part of this demo, too 😺"
"Here we have Myriad from Emute Lab Instruments. It's a 16HP stereo oscillator or whole voice module for Eurorack. There's a super smart range of features to shape, modulate and shift the 9 oscillators that make up it's sound engine. There's hybrid analogue and digital synthesis, unique internal modulation sources and Emute Lab Instruments are presenting this as pataphonic, a sound synthesis take on pataphysics.
During the production of the video Myriad updated to firmware version 1.1.2 head to the website below to update your module.
"Here comes a new alternative mode for CVilization: a high quality Quad VCO with basic waveforms, swarm sawtooth, PWM, chords and much more!
Quad VCO is the first of our alternative modes that can replace any of the four standard modes. The Group feature makes editing polyphonic sounds fast and easy."
