"Main sound: the Phaser is sequenced and used in feedback mode without external signal at the input.

I explain it here:"

Synton Fenix 2 & Fenix 2d delays


"In this video, I'm applying negative voltage to the Time CV input on the Delay to get longer delays, focusing on the differences between Fenix 2 and on Fenix 2d."

Tone Science Module No.10 The Final Patch (DiN:TS10)

"Now available as a double CD with an 8-page booklet & download

Tone Science sub-label, from DiN records, concludes it’s exploration of the world of modular synth music.

Since the first volume in the Tone Science series was released in 2018, seventy-two musicians in total have joined in with this celebration of the musical possibilities of modular synthesis. These artists have been from a huge range of backgrounds but have all shared the unifying purpose of showcasing the incredible variety of sonic possibilities these instruments can offer.

Since the first volume in the Tone Science series was released in 2018, seventy-two musicians in total have joined in with this celebration of the musical possibilities of modular synthesis. These artists have been from a huge range of backgrounds but have all shared the unifying purpose of showcasing the incredible variety of sonic possibilities these instruments can offer.

The intervening seven years have seen the modular synth world expanding at an exponential rate and whilst one wouldn’t go so far as to say these synths are mainstream, they are certainly far more prevalent than in the past. It’s especially gratifying to see so many musicians now either play solo sets with them or to include them in their onstage arsenal.

Thus we come to this, the final instalment in the Tone Science series. Nothing lasts forever and certainly stopping at this nice round number of ten seems like a good way to not only end the series but to release the Final Patch, a real celebration of what has gone before and perhaps to hint at what is possible for the future. A beautifully packaged double CD featuring twenty artists who have appeared on previous iterations of the series, it really is a who’s who of modular synth musicians. The release is accompanied by an eight-page booklet with an essay by Neil Mason and some final words from the guiding force behind the whole project, Ian Boddy, label boss at DiN. And as Boddy so succinctly puts it in his liner notes, “for me, despite the technological nature of the equipment, the emotional quality of the music is the single most important factor”. The Final Patch certainly delivers on that ethos.

05 23 22 Synton Fenix - Testing further

video upload by batchas

"I’m still testing the Fenix 2d, this time focusing on longer delays, The delay of Fenix 2 is also involved in this patch.
Injecting some minimal negative voltage to the delay time CV input to get longer delays. Then sending the delay into a filter to remove the way too high high-pitched noise present in the slow delay signal.
I use the Wave Multiplier as a clock divider to variate the rhythm.
The Triangle output on VCO2 is actually a sinewave, not a triangle. I use it here for the Bass Drum sound.
No external effects used.

I’m recording each session with the Fenix, that’s why I’m sharing here, for everyone interested in hearing the sound of this synth. So it's not a composition or something elaborated. I’m also recording for the first time via a new audio interface so it's a good occasion for me to see how it translates once on youtube.
I will anyway make more videos showing more precisely how the delay sounds. As well as some tricks with a few functions on the modular."

"The VCF4 on the Fenix 2 acts as a low pass gate. It's a 12db/oct low pass VCF with an additional sweep envelope generator.

I find the sound of the VCF4 sent to the Waveshaper quite interesting and unique."

video upload by batchas

"I am sending the audio output of the Vermona ER-9 through the Phaser in feedback mode, using it as a kind of distortion, overdrive & surprise processor.
And as usual I do record the session on video to share the first impressions. The processed sound is really impressive! Patch main connections:
Audio output from ER-9 into Audio Input processor of the Fenix IId. A-out goes to Phaser input in feedback mode. Phaser output goes to mixer.
Trigger out (fast clock extracted by Audio Input processor) goes into Env. Generator 2. Output of EGR2 goes to VCA2. Sawtooth from VCO2 goes into VCF3 Formant Filter being modulated. Output of VCF3 goes into VCA2. Output of VCA2 goes to mixer.
Trigger out goes also to the Wave Multiplier clock input, so I can divide the fast clock by 2 and send to EGR1. Output of EGR1 goes to another VCA1. Triple square from VCO1 goes into VCA1.
a. Output of VCA1 goes to Copycat bandecho."

"A sinewave goes through phaser (+ feedback), BDD delay (+ feedback), LPG and Waveshaper.
All are being modulated by LFOs or sequencers."
