Explaining and testing RYK Side FX
video upload by Stazma

"Today we check out the newx multi effect module by RYK Modular: Side FX

This one seem to draws a lot of inspiration from the H 3000 "Ultra Harmonizer" by Eventide even tho it's not a clone at all. It let you use four effects and route them in many different ways using algorithms that look very much like the ones you would find in a 4-OP FM synthesizer (who said Algo?!). It's a great module, very powerfull and quite easy to use even for someone like me who does not like screens on modules."

via RYK

Want a Pitch Shifted delay into some lush Reverb, with a bit of Chorus for good measure ? How about some Phaser action into a Glitch effect, and a dollop of Bit Crush to taste !

SIDE FX lets you process up to four effect BLOCKS via different algorithms, to create complex, deep evolving effects to envelop your music in a rich syrup of your choosing.

It comes with loads of PRESET FX chains, from ear-mangling grit, to subtle presence, to brain-melting time-space freak-outs.

Or you can create your own PRESETS and save them to the internal SD Card, share with friends and impress your enemies.

Four user-definable CV inputs are available for modulating any parameter, along with a Clock Input for keeping things tidy and time-synchronised, oh, and a MIDI input for all of the above!

Learn to creatively use dynamics processing in Eurorack // DYN by Timo Rozendal & Surreal Machines

video upload by DivKid

"In this video we'll be exploring dynamics processing, learning about functions that are typically a music production and studio tool and applying them to Eurorack sound shaping and getting creative within a modular environment.

Dyn is a new module from Timo Rozendal made in collaboration with Surreal Machines with DSP based on their plug in 'Crack'. It's a 14HP stereo noise gate, transient designer, maximizer, limiter and clipper. There's lots of hands on control and easy to assign CV control too."

via Perfect Circuit

Timo Rozendal Dyn
Dyn from Timo Rozendal is a stereo transient shaper that's exceptional at creating hard hitting percussion or dialing back overly aggressive transients in your mix. It includes a suite of dynamics processing tools based on Surreal Machine's Crack plugin and optimized for drum sounds. A transient shaper is a specialized kind of limiter with an ultra fast attack stage envelope that works primarily on hard spikes in volume such as the initial impact of a stick hitting a drum.The large attack and sustain knobs provide the core parameter adjustments on Dyn. Lower the attack time to create sharp hits that cut through the mix, or increase it to smooth out harsh transitions. Adjust sustain to control the body of the hit post-transient, either making it fuller or tighter. Use the noise gate to reduce the level of quieter sounds between hits, crank the maximizer to push the overall level, and adjust the limiter to set the peak. Blend in your dry signal with the processed sound for parallel processing of your sounds. At the end of the chain, a clipper controls the final output level. Route an external CV source to any of the main parameters to add additional automation. Dyn from Timo Rozendal perfectly pairs with your drum voices or samples, particularly when you need them to stand out in the mix.

Ovis Legio: Granular Shepard tone processor on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Ovis Legio is a granular pitch shifter designed to create Shepard tones, those endlessly rising or falling sounds that never seem to arrive.

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

Let's start with Pitch. This moves through the endless pitch sweep, wrapping around every octave to create that continuous Shepard-tone illusion.

Count controls the number of grains in the sound. Length changes the size of those grains.

Layers changes how many octave-spaced layers make up the Shepard tone, while Fade gives you different ways those layers can move and crossfade into one another.

And send a gate to Hit and all of those octave layers come through together.

Ovis can make your Legio endlessly rise, but when you're ready to come back down to Earth, a quick USB swap can turn the same module into a synth voice, percussion voice, wavefolder, dynamics processor, and lots more.

Cinematic Laboratory Plexiphon posts

"Welcome to episode 02 of my Plexiphon exploration. I must admit I’ve been a bit underwhelmed by it because I was hoping for more like a network behavior where sounds from the past could suddenly return into its input.

Kind of like Mimeophon’s long repeat that remembers almost a minute. It became more and more clear that Plexiphon is indeed an Erbe-Verb V2. Even the CV out is ultimately intended to ‘push back’ the infinite wash so it can be controlled. I guess it’s now a stereo space folder, and once you accept that, it’s quite a cool and creative reverb. But that’s not why I run this channel. People who got themselves a Plexiphon most certainly also have a Mimeophon. And if not, one should at least consider adding one, so one can build yourself a Mimeoplexus. This basically answers my question why there isn’t a bit more ‘plexus’ in the Plexiphon. It’s because Mimeophon already took care if it a long time ago.

In this patch, I’ll use a mono source. In this case, I’ll pick Plonk again so it’s easier to follow what happens to a single mono modal ‘plonk’. MP’s left output goes to left PP input. MP’s right output goes to case out. And then: the loop: PP’s left output returns to MP’s right input.

PP’s right output goes to case out. So the combo pans a bit hard L/R, but the reverb runs through a feedback path. PP can now ‘save itself’ in MP’s long buffer and it can receive its own output many seconds later. Meanwhile, MP can change the delay times, direction, skew, colors, etc. We can’t just fold space, we can fold time too, and make it run backwards.

Now be honest, when was the last time you could creatively mess with relativity?"

Pics of the inside below.

"This unit was professionally serviced. The Synergy II+ is a digital additive/FM synthesizer that sounds like no other. Somewhat similar to the extremely popular Yamaha DX7, it's tone is mellower and warmer. A popular website states 700-800 were made and estimates less than 100 are in operation today. We don't know how they came up with this estimation, but this one's working great, as we just fully serviced it. Famous users include Jay Wires, Wendy Carlos, BT (crumar gds), Junkie XL and Steely Dan. Carlos used it on the Tron soundtrack and other recordings.

Previously, one needed an old Kaypro computer with special software to edit sounds, but someone recently developed an editor that can be run on a modern computer. We haven't used it yet but are really excited to. Please buy this now, before we decide to keep it!

This particular example includes the circuitry of a Kaypro or equivalent computer's CPU. (See pics) Connections were added to the back panel for the accessories, but they were not included when we purchased this item, so we were unable to test this additional computer and disconnected it during restoration, though we left it in place in case a future owner has access to accessories and wants to try to get it running (no guarantees about that though since we didn't test it). The ports on the back have not been tested as we don't have anything that hooks up to them.

There are currently a few patches that are silent, and the first one is low volume and voices change octaves in a seemingly random fashion. We suspect these patches just need to be reprogrammed. At some point, we hope to find time to download and learn the modern editing software mentioned above so we can reprogram these patches, but time is limited, so we may just leave this up to the next owner who we assume will want to load in their own patches. The patches currently in memory are a mix of organ, piano and what seem to be orchestral type sounds."
