If you’re a fan of our Eurorack products, you may notice some similarities between Batverb and Desmodus Versio. And it’s true: they share some similarly named controls, and a lot of their respective inspiration came from the same place. However, Batverb shares none of its code with Desmodus. It was completely written from the ground up as an entirely new product.

All the details on Batverb: https://noiseengineering.us/products/...

Batverb blog post: https://noiseengineering.us/blogs/loq...

We’re close to Desmodus’s five-year anniversary, and in that time we’ve learned a lot about reverb. Desmodus is still one of our favorite products we’ve ever released, but the knowledge we’ve gained allowed us to design Batverb to work particularly well with dynamic, polyphonic instruments like guitars as well as synths and the occasional saxophone. One of the first tests we did in early Batverb R&D was to plug a guitar into Desmodus Versio. It sounded nice, but, just like Desmodus was designed to play off of Eurorack’s strengths, we knew we wanted things to be different for a guitar-focussed product.

One major change between the products is that Batverb uses no delay-line modulation, resulting in a sound that’s more transparent – if you want it to be. Timbre shaping is done with five parameters: Hi Pass and Lo Pass allow you to filter the reverb tail into whatever space you’d like it to fill, Doom and Shimmer add low- and high-end content, and Grit makes things as clean or crunchy as you’d like.

Basimilus Iteritas Alia jam with tons of CV modulation and muting

video upload by Noise Engineering

"This is an extended version of the jam used for the official Basimilus Iteritas Alia demo. [posted here]

Our Ambassador to the Stars, Patrick O’Brien, features the BIA in this all-Noise Engineering case.

Triggers come from the Bin Seq, and CV modulation comes from the Mimetic Digitalis stepped sequencer. The Muta Jovis switches off/on the CV, going into the BIA's inputs throughout the patch. The BIA is then sent to Roucha Legio, our stereo filter, which is activated with the gate coming from one of the Horologic Solum channels into the Bypass input.

More on the BIA here: https://bit.ly/3rPRryZ

Manis provides a nice, bright melodic splash throughout the jam, and Virt Iter Legio provides stereo bass drone sounds.

The BIA is a parameterized digital drum voice with its roots in the analog world. At its heart, the BIA is a simple six-oscillator additive and FM synthesizer with waveform, harmonic spread, and envelope controls. An adjustable noise oscillator and an extreme take on a wavefolder round out its synthesis abilities. Its straightforward controls make sound design fun and performable: create sub-shaking kicks, snares, hats, and unique drum hits with just a few tweaks.

• A go-to for percussion synthesis
• Also excellent at leads and basses
• Additive/FM digital synth with root and inspiration in the analog world.
• CV over every parameter
• Dedicated envelope output
• Encoder tuning

Basimilus Iteritas Alia is the successor to the original Basimilus Iteritas Alter. It was developed to sound nearly identical, with added features and new firmware-swapping capabilities."

5 Jams with Lacrima Versio stereo autowah from Hell from Noise Engineering

More info on Lacrima Versio and the Versio platform: https://bit.ly/3Q4rSDx

Jam 1: We're using Vice Virga like an arpeggiator, inputting the 4 separate channels of the Chord, then sending the single output through Lacrima Versio for some filtering and chorusing. The Loquelic Iteritas Percido fills the room with cinematic booms filtered by Polaris, all clocked with the Horologic Solum.

Jam 2: The Lacrima Versio and the Imitor Versio delay fill up all the stereo goodness. Manis, Cursus, and BIA are our sound sources, with the Fractio Solum creating a 4/3 polyrhythm for the BIA. That gritty bass comes from the Manis running through Lacrima using chorus I and the Hit input being triggered by the clock from Horologic Solum.

Jam 3: Here's the Lacrima Versio 100% wet with the Loquelic Iteritas Percido.

Jam 4. Swapped to the Lacrima Versio autowah firmware and ran the Loquelic Iteritas Percido through it.

Jam 5: The Vice Virga is split into two switches: one alternates the pitch CV going into Chord, and the second alternates the CV going to the FM input on the Polaris filter. Then we bring up the Lacrima Versio, with its Chorus II droning the Loquelic Iteritas Percido in Free mode throughout. The Sat and Freq CVs are controlled with the Planar 2."

More info on Cursus Iteritas: https://bit.ly/3jRt38o

Jam 1: We're adjusting the Cursus Iteritas' Fold and Structure controls while sending the signal out through the Electus Versio. The BIA with the kick.

Jam 2: We're adding in CV and pitch inputs on the CI one at a time, then adjusting the Center control to change the harmonic used to build the waveform. The Clep Diaz is adjusting the release on the Sinc Bucina. Mix is then sent through Electus Versio for the clocked reverb.

Jam 3: In this ambient patch, we've added a pitch input and 4 CV inputs to the CI, then we stepped aside and watched it play this beautiful generative journey.

Jam 4: It doesn't take much to make some exciting timbres out of the Cursus Iteritas. It plays very well here with Mimetic Digitalis, Fractio Solum, Horologic Solum, Loquelic Iteritas Percido, Bin Seq, and Imitor Versio. The Sinc Bucina shapes the sounds from Cursus, and the mix is sent through Electus Versio for some clocked reverb.

Jam 5: This time we're sending gates and modulation through every CV input on the Cursus Iteritas. The result is a huge variety of harmonic sounds and timbres. Then we follow that up with some Melotus Versio granular processing.

5 Jams with Fractio Solum clock divider/multiplier from Noise Engineering

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Check out these 5 Jams using the Fractio Solum clock divider/multiplier Eurorack module. We hope these jams will inspire you to think of new ways to patch.

0:05 Jam 1
0:35 Jam 2
1:08 Jam 3
2:02 Jam 4
2:36 Jam 5

More info on Fractio Solum: https://bit.ly/351qnkn

Jam 1: The clock from the Horologic Solum is feeding the FS, which is outputting three different clocks for the kick, snare and hat. Then we're using the Sinc Defero attenuator to adjust the CV going into the ratio input of the FS to make different patterns. Adding more attenuation by turning the Sinc Defero's knob will increase the ratio, creating some nice fills!

Jam 2: We like being able to add triplets to your sequence, and here's an easy way to do that with the Fractio Solum. You can also press on the encoder to mute the pattern to create silence in your sequence.

Jam 3: Here we're adding the same clocked tempo to the Fractio Solum and the tap input on the Electus Versio. The Fractio Solum's trigger pattern to the Manis Iteritas changes as the ratio changes, but the EV's echoes keep the original clock signal, making some really glitchy pumping reverb, especially with the Regen knob turned all the way up.

Jam 4: Here's how you can create unique step lengths: Send a clock into the FS, then out to clock the Mimetic Digitalis. Then, patch one of the Mimetic's CV outputs back to Fractio Solum's ratio input. Then program Mimetic's CV to change the length of each step.

Jam 5: In this patch, we're manually turning the ratio to change multiplications or divisions which increase or decrease the amount of triggers for those explosive stabs."

Eurorack with cello: An ambient journey featuring Ruina Versio and Electus Versio

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Here's a performance with cellist and NE's Chief Plumber Adam Lange-Pearson, using two Versios in his modular setup for the effects chain.

In this jam, Adam explored several things he found challenging:

Use light distortion (using Ruina Versio in this case) to color the cello sound without losing the, um, cello sound. He often has fun shredding with full-wave rectification cranked, but here he wanted to just add something to support the mood without it being obvious.

Improvise over short sequencer-based repetition. He says he has a lot to learn here, but it’s fun :) For this jam, 0-Ctrl provided rhythm, Horologic Solum was the flexible clock, and Vox Digitalis was the pitch-sequencer. The voice was the ever-versitile Loquelic Iteritas, in pink.

Most of the knob-twiddling is on Ruina Versio and Electus Versio.

There are several ways to get cello audio into the case: Adam played into a large condenser mic plugged into a small mixer (for the phantom power), and ran that into a eurorack receiver module."

Noise Engineering Blog: Bin Seq for rhythm modification

video by Noise Engineering

"From the blog: https://www.noiseengineering.us/blog/...
Here, we have our main sequencer, the Intellijel Metropolis, with the trigger output running into BS’s Beat input. We’re running our whole system with Horologic Solum, so we can patch a /16 clock into the BS Measure input to keep it in check. Playing with the switch positions changes our sequence on the fly, and we can easily revert back to the original by setting all the switches to the trigger position, or mute our voice entirely by setting all switches to off."

Blog: Four voice patch with Horologic Solum

Noise Engineering

From the blog: https://www.noiseengineering.us/blog/...
Preorder Horologic Solum/Horologic Uter: https://www.noiseengineering.us/shop/...

"When used as a clock generator, the HS has a variety of uses. The top output is always the base clock, and the three outputs below that are divisions of it. Those outputs can be set to 2/4/8, 3/5/7, or 4/16/64 respectively with a flick of the “2 0 4” switch. Personally, I like to use the 4/16/64 setting when I want to keep a bunch of sequencers in sync and phase. I can route the root clock to their clock inputs, and use one of the slower clocks to keep them all in phase. The 3/5/7 setting I like a lot for slower, more experimental patches where I want to move away from a 4/4 grid. Especially when paired with something like Integra Funkitus to add some probability to the clock outputs, you can ditch the sequencers entirely and create an interesting patch just with some unusual divisions.
Let’s try something a bit more traditional, though: here, we’re using Horologic Solum to clock a Mimetic Digitalis and an Intellijel Steppy to trigger and modulate a four-voice patch."

Blog: Swing with Horologic Solum

Noise Engineering

"Since HS is voltage controllable, there are a lot of things that we can do to make our clocks more interesting. Gradual tempo changes can be automated with a slow LFO, or we can do more experimental things by patching envelopes, random CV, and other signals here for some more unusual results. However, there’s a more traditional use for it, too: swing! All we have to do is get a CV sequencer and clock it with HS, then feed the sequence into the CV input on HS. Let’s take a listen to what it can sound like."

Blog: Drum machine jam with Horologic Solum


"HS is a Eurorack module, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t use it with other pieces of gear, too! A lot of gear can take analog triggers or clock, which means that we can use Horologic Solum as well as Horologic Uter to control a plethora of other devices. HU, with its extra outs, is especially useful when using lots of gear since you have so many clock options. Here, we’re jamming on a rack with a voice, some sequencing, and some FX, alongside an external drum machine."

Trovarsi Eurorack Techno Tutorial With Noise Engineering Modules

Published on Dec 10, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"LA-based techno artist Trovarsi recently came by our shop to talk about modular synth techniques. If you're curious about how to make techno with a modular synth, this is a great place to start. In this demo, she shows that even the most modest setups can be powerful musical tools when approached with some fundamental techniques and a healthy dose of experimentation. Learn more here: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/signal...

Trovarsi uses a 62hp Intellijel Palette case of Noise Engineering modules to create an array of alien percussion, slithering bass lines, and frantic, aggressive leads. By linking several sequencers and modulation sources to a single clock source (the Horologic Solum), she keeps everything moving together. Her only sound sources are a Basimilus Iteritas Alter and a Manis Iteritas—but by deploying some clever patching, she expands these into a complex tapestry of fluid, yet aggressive sound.

Proving you don't need a lot of gear to make compelling sounds, Trovarsi turns this tiny system into a full-fledged, in-your-face groovebox."
