ODD-1 Guide: Making Your First Sounds


video upload by Oddment

"The second video in the ODD-1 start guide series. From an empty patch: how sound sound is created on the ODD-1, loading a sample, adjusting core parameters, and saving a patch.

The ODD-1 is a microsonic (granular) instrument — a synthesizer that chops sound into small pieces and lets you re-pitch and rearrange them, with a knob for every function required and patching by holding any knob down.

Chapters:
0:00 — Intro
0:20 — Creating sound on ODD-1
1:25 — Starting a patch and loading a sample
2:21 — Speed and tuning
3:14— Transforming sound with grains
4:00 — Saving a patch"

Yamaha FS1R Comes to Software with FSVR Emulator


via musica.studio

ALL 88 ALGORITHMS
Every FM algorithm from the hardware, with the voiced and unvoiced operators the FS1R is known for.

THE FACTORY BANKS BUILT IN
1408 voices [patches], 384 performances and 90 formant sequences read out of the ROM, so the patch browser needs no dump of your own.

FSEQ PLAYBACK
The formant sequences that made the FS1R sound like nothing else, with every loop mode, the start delay and MIDI clock sync.

THE FRONT PANEL IS THE GUI
Down to the cursor stops and the controller set, read out of the firmware's own screen tables rather than off a photo.

VST3, CLAP AND STANDALONE
Windows, macOS and Linux, built on every push, with no installer and no dependencies.

Native Instruments FM8.plus Enhancement Project



via musica.studio

MORPH ROTATE
Map any MIDI CC to sweep a circle through all four morph timbres. Ride the whole morph square from a mod wheel.

ARP MIDI OUT
The built-in arpeggiator can finally drive other instruments. Probably FM8's most requested missing feature.

TEMPO OVERRIDE
Unshackle the arpeggiator from the DAW tempo and run it at its own.

GAIN +10 DB
Extra output gain, for patches that never quite got loud enough.

Nord Modular G1 emulated in Gearmulator: it finally makes sound | #1


video upload by animatek

Patreon patches, downloads, and exclusive content - / animatek
The emulated Nord Modular G1 is now playing: the original G1 OS running on a computer, using Gearmulator, and controlled from my Animatek NME editor as if it were the real synth. First test, in pre-alpha phase.

⬇️ IN THIS VIDEO ⬇️

I document the first sound from a Nord Modular G1 emulator. The original G1 operating system runs on an emulated 68331 processor and loads its programs on four emulated DSP56303s, with the same kernel that Gearmulator uses for the Nord Lead 2X. The Animatek NME editor connects via PC Port and loads patches with oscillators, a mixer, and filters onto the virtual G1. And just like with the hardware, I close the editor, the synth continues playing, and when I open it again, it retrieves the patch.

This is a snapshot of the development process, bugs and all: clicks, filters that aren't working yet, unfinished clocks and sequencers, and empty banks. The emulator isn't released yet, and no ROMs are being distributed. This is episode 1 of the emulator's development diary. I'll upload a new one whenever there's a noticeable improvement.

⬇️ INDEX ⬇️

0:00 - Nord Modular G1 emulator on Gearmulator
0:44 - The engine: the G1's 4 DSPs and the first sound
1:24 - Animatek NME connected to the virtual G1: oscillator and output
2:00 - Mixer with various waveforms
2:29 - Nord Modular filters: simple ones yes, complex ones halfway
2:59 - Clocks and sequencers, not yet
3:20 - PWM, and things that cut the sound
4:24 - I turn the emulator off and on again
5:03 - Reconnecting via PC Port and empty banks
5:27 - Loading Nord Modular patches: the drone patch yes, others no
5:55 - The G1 emulator from scratch
6:38 - The two outputs and the low-pass and high-pass filters
6:55 - I close the Editor… and the emulated G1 keeps playing
7:21 - I cut the emulator: real test
7:34 - Project status

Explaining and testing Plexiphon by Make Noise


video upload by Stazma

"More infos and affiliate links in the description // Support on Patreon to get samples from this session: / stazma

Today we are going to check out Plexiphon by Make Noise & Soundhack.

This is a very interesting effect module that blend multi-tap delay and reverb by giving you big macro controls over a giant feedback network.
Like the Erbe-Verb it is fully modeless so it will create all sort of weird unrealistic sounding reverb like effect (hence the name texturizer). The delay side can be a bit more « normal » but the multi-tap nature of it makes it quite weird (in a good way).
It is a very impressive and fun time and space playground.

Have fun!!!"

AT Legio: Ataraxic Translatron Legio LFSR lofi oscillator on the Legio platform


video upload by Noise Engineering

"AT Legio is an LFSR lofi oscillator inspired by the very first Noise Engineering module, Ataraxic Translatron. And now, it can do a whole lot more.

Get a Legio module and swap to this firmware today:
https://noiseengineering.us/products/...

AT starts with two LFSRs. Tone shapes the first, while Mod controls a second LFSR that modulates it. Together, they can take things from crunchy digital tones to much more chaotic textures.

And then we can make things weirder.

This left switch changes the audio input behavior, giving us another completely different set of sounds.

And because that wasn't enough, there's Chorus. That right switch spreads everything out into a much wider stereo voice.

We can also hard sync AT from another oscillator - another way to push the harmonics around and get some nasty digital textures.

And bring in another voice with its audio inputs.

AT is one of the many free firmwares available for the Legio platform. Grab a Legio module, connect it over USB, and you can swap AT and the rest of the Legio firmware collection whenever you want.

23 Firmwares.
One Legio.

Visit noiseengineering.us or your favorite retailer to get a Legio module in your case."

This TINY Setup Makes MASSIVE Jungle: PO-33 KO! + Monotron Delay


video upload by Pocket Trax

"Back with some more pocket-sized Jungle energy.

👉 Pocket Jungle Toolkit 2 available on Patreon: / pocket-jungle-2-168395255

Once again I’m pushing the PO-33 KO! + Monotron Delay. Such a ridiculously small setup for how BIG and dirty it can sound. I’m also using the breaks from my latest Pocket Jungle Toolkit 2 in this jam. I wanted to test in a performance and, well... I can confirm: they hit hardships as you can feel. The toolkit is available on my Patreon

There’s something about making Jungle on these little machines that just clicks, with a unmatched vibe and energy.

He wasn't expecting that... Jupiter 8 vs Magnolia


video upload by Starsky Carr

"*Vintage legend vs modern contender — two 8-voice all-analogue polysynths, 45 years apart. I fully expected the Jupiter-8 to win this one. It didn't.*

I set out to score the Frap Tools Magnolia against the Roland Jupiter-8 across price, features, reliability, repairability and — the hard part — sound. Spoiler: it wasn't close on most of those, and then the sound test threw me a curveball I wasn't expecting.

Watch to the end for the verdict, and let me know in the comments which one you'd actually want on your desk.

*⏱ TIMESTAMPS*
0:00 – Two 8-voice analogue polys, 45 years apart
1:08 – Sound test begins: matching a big warm pad
2:56 – Filters, envelopes & adding pitch LFO
4:13 – PWM comparison
6:11 – Fat square bass & an acid bass
8:20 – FM face-off
11:30 – Wave folding (Jupiter-8 can't do this at all)
11:46 – High-pass filter tricks — the MS-20 move
12:29 – Pick Your Winner
14:31 – Final thoughts

*🔧 GEAR IN THIS VIDEO*
Frap Tools Magnolia — 8-voice all-analogue polysynth, thru-zero linear FM, wave folder, 16 modulation sources into 38 destinations
Roland Jupiter-8 — 8-voice all-analogue polysynth (1981)

Making a lo-fi track with just one cheap synth


video upload by vekoni

"I limited myself using only Stylophone Beat with Loopy Pro to make a chill lo-fi track. This little drum machine can also do neat bass sounds, which I've used to create a melody over the recorded beat.

I was usually using the Beat exactly as intended: punching in notes with its built-in sequencer (which is quantized), then jam over it with a synth or a guitar (so basically it was a groovy metronome for me). This time I wanted to try something new and use it exclusively to create something "off the grid", so I've played the Beat freely and looped it. With the use of some great effects I managed to elevate the sounds of this unit."
