How to Make String Sounds on the Sonicware Ambient 0 | Tutorial + Patches

video upload by Sonic Cartography

"Patch download link & table of contents below. I’ve been really enjoying these string sounds on the Sonicware Liven Ambient Ø lately and I thought I’d share them. By the way, I’m looking for new ideas for videos, so if you have requests, questions, topics, etc. you think I could cover, please let me know in the comments! I can't guarantee I'll cover all of them because I've making videos at a snail's pace lately, but it would really help me to know what people are actually interested in!

Banyan: generative ambient through switching loops

video upload by Electrum Modular

"With Disting EX’s multiswitch algo (6 switches, each with 6 inputs and 4 outputs), you can generate long, melodic sequences with just three voltages. By placing the switches in parallel, so their inputs and outputs overlap, and by adding a few feedback loops, the sequence can get quite complex and unpredictable."

It's all Voltage | The Modular Classroom | Lesson 1 (feat. Serge DUSG and GTS)

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"OK, here's episode 1 of my modular classroom series. Again. I had to reupload due to editing errors. So I worked on it some more, added some stuff and removed a segment that went to Lesson 2.

I had to pick a reference because we all own different case layouts. I assume everyone can follow and try some of it if you own a Maths, Falistri, Rampage or Abacus. I'll be using Serge DUSG and GTS for most of this video. I did not include the 281T quad function generator because it will get its own lesson.

We're going to be taking about rise and falls a lot. They're the foundation for modular sound generation and movement. It's all voltage. When we think of a triangle wave as a basic waveform, we can break it apart and see it as a rising voltage, a falling voltage in a repeating cycle over periods of time. Time will determine if it's a VCO or LFO."

Slope Language | The Modular Classroom | Lesson 2 (feat. Maths, Rings and Clouds)

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"In Lesson 1 I introduced a hidden sonic world of rise and falls, a foundation for making sounds and movement and for interaction with other sounds and movements. I realized it's hard to make lessons without reference gear and I picked Maths as the No. 1 module to explain the core concepts of low level synthesis. While making this lesson, I figured out this 'slope language' which could be an alternative to patch diagrams. Diagrams only work on a system with a fixed layout and modules. In modular this just doesn't work because all modulars are different and personal.

I also needed to find a way to combine high level music making with low level modular techniques and explain why it's worth it to dive a bit deeper. I used Rings and Clouds as a methaphor for 'fastfood' because it's really easy to make great music. This often sounds like a bad thing but it's not. Too easy is good. It confirms that modular synths can be cool. But it's even cooler to hear what happens when we add a bit of low level movement. Sticking to the metaphor of cooking with sound, it becomes a Chef's kitchen, where Rings/Clouds are the signature ingredients, and Maths is the secret sauce.

The goal for these classes is to learn how to think in voltage slopes (rise and falls) and these 'slope language' diagrams seem to work for lots of module combinations. I was able to 'translate' a Maths patch to Tides and Blinds. It works because we're taking a step back from the panel layout, and focus on what the voltage is doing. The recipe. For me, it felt like a missing link that really helps me to explain things. Now let's hope this works for you too."

Joranalogue Audio Design x Hainbach / COLLIDE 4 / lock-in amp eurorack power / PLAYTHROUGH

video upload by BRiES

"In this video I demonstrate and try to explain the functionality of the powerhouse module that is COLLIDE 4. I split up the video into three chapters providing you with plenty of examples on how to use the different sections of the module seperately and together.

COLLIDE 4 is a collab between the Belgian electronical hi-tech wizardry team at Joranalogue Audio Design and German contemporary artist and mad audiolab scientist Hainbach. They teamed up to make a miniature version of a lock-in amplifier, a versatile test device that can be either used to hunt for subatomic particles or to make earth-shattering kickdrums and eery melody lines straight from a Kindergarten Horror flick. Joran decided that this wasn't enough of a flex so he added frequency shift functionality to the unit and don't ask me how he did it but he made the cleanest frequency shifter ever. COLLIDE 4 being all analog ciruitry that's one hell of a thing to do."

A Less Conventional Approach To The Synthstrom Deluge

"The Deluge is an absolute powerhouse when you consider it's incredible list of features, but does that mean you should stop doing what you love and treat it as your studio brain? In today's video we discuss this and try a less conventional approach. The Deluge is our synthesizer and stem generator for our sampler, the Digitakt II.
