Plinky 12 Blocks - Full Walkthrough


video upload by Nathan Plante Synths, Alex Evans (mmalex), Making Sound Machines

"At long last, I have made the Plinky 12 Blocks walkthrough! This panel is so jam-packed with features it was hard to fit it all in to one video (and I did leave out a few things). Blocks can do it all - sequencing, live play, loop recording, chords.... an EVERYTHING machine! I can't wait to see what great music people are going to make with this synth. Enjoy!"

feature walkthrough of bib, buzzrito, and blueberry - 3x 1U modules by plinkysynth and crey emporium
video upload by Alex Evans (mmalex)



"Meet Buzzrito, a large bee presiding over 16 sawtooth oscillators, a sub oscillator, and a peaky comb-filter, all in just 12HP 1U.

Buzzrito is the second collaboration between Alex Evans – creator of Plinky! – and Ray Yokell aka CrazyEmperor893 of The crey emporium. It pairs really well with Bib (fx) and Blueberry (sequencer) but easily integrates into any eurorack setup that can provide gate and pitch (V/Oct).

Buzzy is a very simple module to use: Pitch and Gate go into the left-most jacks, and glorious, wide stereo, plinky-like buzzing comes out of the right-most jacks. The main surface is a large 2D (XY) touch plate, with 7 presets scattered across its surface. Touching at a particular point changes the sound immediately, while dragging your finger records a looping automation following your finger movement, animating the sound. The remaining two jacks, X and Y, allow voltage control over this 2D morphing between presets. From simple triangle-tones in the bottom left, to rasping comb filtered super-saws at top right, Buzzy is a characterful oscillator in a small package."
