X1L3 - ALLEYKAT - CLOSER 🥔🍆🍑 - 8580 SID - nine inch nails cover - eurorack module

video upload by X1L3

"Potato remake of closer by nine inch nails on the Alleykat module running an 8580 SID chip.

For the five people in the world who want to hear a potato version of the downward spiral in it's entirety, like piggy, consider it a teaser for the full thing. I thought how well this turned out worthy of it's own upload. God tier sexy interpretation of an already sexy bass line, some phatt for the masses filter action and so much voice multiplexing and element hopping that it ends up sounding like there's way more going on than three voices. Pretty happy with the outcome of this. I'd give it an A+ or an S in a 1986 teenager with C64 running and telly cranked to full volume kind of way :)

I suppose when the whole thing is done it'll make a decent demo of what the module is capable of when i get around to releasing it."

Moog Micromoog & Modular w/ AJH/MiniMod, Hermod+ analog synth jam

video upload by DreamsOfWires

"Testing my faulty Micromoog with some helpful modules from AJH Synth: My poor old Moog isn't scaling/tracking correctly, so the V-Scale module is being used to modify the 1V/Oct output of the sequencer to produce the correct notes. Video guide to how this was achieved: • Correcting Vintage Synths with V-SCALE - T... [below]

Normally the Micromoog follows a 0.95V/Oct voltage to pitch scale, but mine can no longer even be calibrated to this with it's internal trimmers, so until it can be serviced (probably with some new components), the V-Scale at least makes it useable with external controllers and sequencers.

Sequenced by the Squarp Hermod+, the synth's faulty tracking is then corrected using AJH Synth's V-Scale module, gates coverted by the AMSynths AM997 Gate to S-Trig converter.

Micromoog filter modulated by AJH Tap Tempo VC-LFO, random gate skip by AJH CHance Delay.

Drone is 3 AJH MiniMod VCOs into Matrix VCF.

Mixed in the Cosmotronic Cosmix Pro, reverb from FX Aid, delay from 2HP DLY, final mix recorded on the Disting Mk4."

Correcting Vintage Synths with V-SCALE - Tackling Tracking & Tuning Problems #ajhsynth

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Using V-SCALE to compensate for the tuning/tracking problems on one of my Vintage Synthesizers, this time a Moog Micromoog from the late 70's. Also, showing how PRECISION VOLTAGES can also be helpful, and bringing the TAP TEMPO VC-LFO, CHANCE DELAY, and the MATRIX VCF into a short performance demo - FULL performance video by ‪@DreamsOfWires‬ can be found here: • Moog Micromoog & Modular w/ AJH/MiniMod, H... [above]

V-SCALE at its simplest will function as a highly accurate buffered multiple, but four of its five outputs are adjustable by way of multi-turn trimmers. These allow for very gradual adjustments to outgoing CV signals, so that they can be made viable for synths or VCOs that are not scaling properly.

Here I'm adjusting/modifying a 1V/Oct signal from a sequencer so that it controls my old Micromoog correctly, but it could also be used with incoming signals other than 1V/Oct, or even to correct am incoming signal which itself isn't scaling correctly or as desired. Each trimmer has an adjustment range of +/- 5%.

My Micromoog's tracking is so far off that it cannot even be corrected using the internal trimmers on the synth, so I'm using the Keyboard Output (KBD) as the CV input, instead. of the intended OSC input. This method bypasses the keyboard, so the keyboard voltage isn't added to incoming control voltages, and so doesn't interfere with it. The only drawback is that the root key will have to be changed to match the notes on a keyboard. That's where the PRECISION VOLTAGES comes in - it can accurately offset an incoming control voltage by semitones and octaves, either up or down."

Live at Home II (Elektron Digitone // MFB Tanzbar // Roland S1 // Teenage Engineering KO Sidekick)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"It's been almost a year since I last used my Elektron Digitone. The knobs had gradually become sticky, making the instrument pretty unpleasant to use. Since this seems to be an issue other people have experienced too (and I've had similar problems with other gear), I eventually decided to buy replacement knobs and swap them myself.

And honestly, this machine is too good to stay on the shelf!

To celebrate its return, here's a second "Live at Home" session: a 14-minute live set built mainly around patterns I recorded on the Digitone before I stopped using it.

The setup:
Elektron Digitone : the heart of the setup, sequencing the Roland S-1 and sending program changes to switch its sounds throughout the set.
Roland S-1 : mainly handling the bass.
MFB Tanzbär : adding some extra analog drums, using its own internal sequencer.
Teenage Engineering KO Sidekick : processing the Tanzbär (Channel 1) and the Digitone (Channel 2), with onboard effects for breaks, transitions, and a bit of hands-on sound shaping.

The Digitone acts as the master clock, with MIDI running from the Digitone to the S-1 and then to the Tanzbär. While the Digitone sequences the S-1, the Tanzbär keeps its own patterns running in sync with the rest of the setup.

No elaborate concept this time, just a chance to revisit some old patterns, bring the Digitone back into the mix, and see where the machines take me.

As always, the performance was recorded in a single take. I mixed and mastered the individual tracks afterwards in Ableton Live, but the musical performance itself wasn't edited or fixed.

undo machine live demo v2

video upload by aural explorations

"Undo Machine is out: https://undomachine.com

I built a small macOS app to solve something that had been bugging me for a while: capturing my current sound, freely changing it, then returning to where I started.

I’ve come to love that kind of workflow on the Torso S-4 and T-1. It’s useful for sound design and live performance, so I wanted to bring it to my Analog Four and Novation Peak.

This video shows Capture, Undo, Return and Morph in action. Undo Machine currently supports Novation Peak, Analog Four MKII, Bitwig Studio and Ableton Live and can be controlled by any Midi capable device.

Want this for your instrument too? Download Undo Machine and run the guided device test. Your results can help me investigate whether support is possible.

Available for macOS on Apple Silicon, with a 14-day trial."

"What does it do?

Imagine you could freeze the state of your entire hardware or hybrid setup while performing, creating or producing—then explore, mutate, distort and intensify your sound, knowing you can always return to your baseline at the push of a button or smoothly morph back with a fader.
That’s Undo Machine."

Jaap Vink and the Institute of Sonology

video upload by La Synthèse Humaine

"Jaap Vink was a technician and teacher at the Institute of Sonology in Utrecht from 1967 until his retirement in 1993. During that time he pioneered numerous techniques for the analog realization of dense electronic sounds and was a key collaborator of Roland Kayn in the 1970's and 1980's. Vink was always in search of sounds that would break the inherent periodicity of electronics, and found that feedback was the key.

This video is the third and last in a mini-series looking at Vink's techniques which were documented by the fantastic retrospective double LP on Recollections GRM. We look at two patches which are structured around two voices arising from interrelated trigger sequences.

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

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."

Knock Out 🎚️(Teenage Engineering K.O.-Sidekick EP-136 // MFB Tanzbar // Roland S-1 // J-6)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"A new little piece of gear joins the setup! 🎛️

This time, I'm introducing the Teenage Engineering KO II Sidekick EP-136 , a small but surprisingly powerful little mixer, and a very welcome addition to the setup.

And this one is a little different from my last jams: there's no external sequencers like the Squarp Hapax or Arturia Keystep Pro involved! 😄

Instead, I'm using the built-in sequencers of all 3 instruments in the setup: the MFB Tanzbär , Roland S-1 and *Roland J-6*. It's actually quite refreshing to let the instruments take care of their own sequences for once.

The Tanzbär is on Channel 1 , bringing its punchy analog drums to the party. Channel 2 is shared by the Roland S-1 and *Roland J-6*: the J-6 handles the bass and chords, while the S-1 also provides the lead chimes during the intro.

The problem? The Sidekick only has *2 stereo channels*.

So, naturally, I had to cheat a little. 😄

** THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY SYNTHETIC SOUND LABS ** they have funded the creation of this video."

Press release follows:

Synthetic Sound Labs announces Wave Oracle™, a multi-function signal visualization and learning instrument designed specifically for modular synthesizers. See and explore your sounds.

Wave Oracle™ combines oscilloscope, XY, spectrum analysis, tuning, metering, audio-responsive visualization and integrated learning functions in a single module. Four signal inputs allow several points in a synthesizer patch to remain connected simultaneously, with channel selection available within applicable modes.

Wave Oracle™ is designed to be easy to learn and use, without requiring a background in electronics or test equipment.

SCOPE
Wave Oracle™ can display signals from oscillators, envelopes, LFOs, modulation and complete voices.

The oscilloscope views these as voltage changing over time, revealing the actual shape and timing of a signal. Laboratory-style adjustable timebases, vertical scaling, positioning and triggering allow visualization and measurement of up to four independent synth signals at once.

XY
Plots two signals against one another to display phase and frequency relationships, modulation and Lissajous figures. XY uses Channels 1 and 2 as its X and Y signal sources.

FFT
Where SCOPE shows voltage over time, Wave Oracle™’s FFT modes reveal frequency content and how it changes over time. Multiple spectrum displays provide different views of fundamentals, harmonics, noise, filter response and the evolving spectral content of complex sounds and complete voices.

Automatic and manual display scaling accommodate signals ranging from individual oscillators to dynamic musical material.

TUNER
Measures frequency and musical pitch for oscillator tuning, matching pitches and checking oscillator tracking.
