Generative chaos

"Semi generative patch :

Voices , are sampled radio on the casset player to typhoon
'bell' is element
Bass is 2fm op, one FM the other mixed with noise to vacium tube drive and feeebback to centaur gate for filtering
Noise is parralelle procesing of the bass voice to resonanant FB to ikarie
Voice 1 is Carbon as oscilator with noise to centaur gate vca
Voice 2 is warp internal oscilator with noise wavefolde to an LPG
The generative part is prodiuce by Zadar and Juniper , respectivly creating VCA/VFC modulation and quantizing voltage



Thank you for watching.

New BEHRINGER BQ-10: It Will Leave You Speechless!

video upload by Behringer

"The Behringer BQ-10 is a 24-step analog sequencer that captures the essence of classic sequencing with the flexibility of modern modular workflow. Designed in Eurorack format, it’s hands-on, immediate, and built to spark ideas without screens or menus getting in the way.

Key features:
• Single 16-step or dual 8-step sequences
• Dedicated 8-step CV channel for filter or amplitude control
• Per-step trigger outputs for custom reset patterns
• External trigger input for clock sync
• Full CV control for deep modular integration

From evolving sequences to tight, synced pattern changes, the BQ-10 brings vintage character and real-time control straight into your setup.

Available now through Behringer distributors worldwide."

First Stage Fright

video upload by davidryle

"Rossum Electro-Music works its' way into the 5U system. The results are pretty nice.

Using a Trident Oscillator with quantized pitch CV from a Mob Of Emus into three envelopes from Synthetic Sound Labs Octal VCA Expander, then on to the Rossum Panharmonium Mutating Spectral Resynthesizer.
A tap off the Trident is sent to the Rossum Linnaeus filter for a percussive FM part which starts the work. The timing is from the Moon Modular 563 Trigger Sequencer.
The rhythm section is the Synthetic Sound Labs / Hagiwo Geo Gruvn euclidean sequencer for all the parts.
The bass part is the SSL Woven Spirits (MI Plaits) in wavetable mode.
The dual Q960 sequencers are transposing the 1V/Oct input to the Panharmonium and sending various control voltages to the bass and another pad swell sounds from the 5U system.
All recordings are in real time to Cubase 12 and video is edited in Final Cut Pro."

Orangey-Brown Accumulation (Buchla 100)

video upload by Memetune Studio

"This is a live performance on an original Buchla 100 from the late 1960s, using the Concrete Box™ , and TX-6 mixer

The patch uses 3 loopers and 2 delays, plus a very old Dynacord VRS23 reverb (which is adding some slightly woozy pitch-bendy-ness to the reverb)

The Buchla has a really basic patch - just one Sine-Saw VCO into the Sharp Cutoff Filter (Lowpass section). There's some cutoff mod from the keyboard capacitance voltage (which is why I'm wiggling my fingers in a rather silly-looking way)

The vintage Buchla 100 sounds so natural, rich and organic, I love it - almost like an acoustic instrument - a brassy, beautiful tone from the saw waves

Also, there's a second VCO (square) going into the HPF section of the Sharp Cutoff Filter (which is independent from the lowpass section in this mode) for the low drones

It builds up a bit like the many fallen leaves which have accumulated upon the now wintery lawn I am gazing upon"

ER101 & 102 Microtonal Experiment | Modular Mayhem with Colin Benders

"Last weekend I was asked to do a full ambient show with no drums, so I got creative with some patch ideas and stumbled upon a feature I had never used before... let's see how deep we can go with this! expect lots of polyphony and wild sequences, things can get crazy today...!

Go ahead and have some fun with the 'Prignalia' stems: https://linktr.ee/colinbenders
You can upload version over there if you want to! _________________________________
Sole but far-from-lonely emperor of a monster 243-module rack, genre-unbound sound explorer, modular mad scientist to the bone, call him whatever you like it’s a fact: Dutch wave-tumbler Colin Benders defies the conventions of so easily tag-slapped electronics as much as his music confronts gravity itself. Untamed and unshackled from today’s main line of tepid production behaviourism, striving in an artistic lane truly his own, Benders has completely veered off the grand street's accepted modus operandi to operate his gear and imagination in utterly innovative fashion.

Having garnered a more than solid experience of the first-hand musician-to-listener experience, Benders keeps on cutting new trails for live electronics, away from drowsy standards and mimetic attitudes. Instead, the Dutch performer pledges to rethink our whole consumption and digestive process of music through lengthy, free-jazz-like momentums to lose your mind and body to. The knowledge and time spent perfecting his craft both apart and before his online audience shines through these patched-up symphonies of boisterous sine-waves, all-engulfing lo-end swells and hair-raising crescendos that have already conquered the likes of Dekmantel, Awakenings, ADE and Berghain. #modularsynth #colinbenders"

Make Noise PoliMATHS Overview (feat. Sarah Belle Reid)

video upload by Perfect Circuit and Sarah Belle Reid

"Make Noise PoliMATHS is a revolutionary new Eurorack module — an eight-channel function generator designed to create complex, evolving arrays of control voltages.

While it was designed to work as part of Make Noise's new NUSS ecosystem, it also brings a lot of possibilities to a non-NUSS Eurorack system. To help explain how it can play along with the rest of your modular synth, we reached out to our friend ‪@sarahbellereid‬ to see how she has been using it.

She covers the module's basic features, and then discusses a few interesting ways to approach it:
1:38 Module Overview
14:08 PoliMATHS as a Multi-CV Tool
17:00 PoliMATHS as a Polyphonic Synth
23:15 Double Gating with PoliMATHS
26:02 PoliMATHS as a Clock Divider
