Isla Electronics ASYX - Multi Timbral demo

video upload by Isla Electronics

"I keep getting asked what the 'MIX' button is for.
Well, the original Andromeda was 16 voices, but it was also 16 part multi-timbral, so you could either have upto 16 totally different sounds playing at once, or you could also use it to layer different patches to create very thick textures.
In this quick synth wank, I give a little tour of the UI while about 7 different programs are playing across different midi tracks from ableton. No additional fx or processing other than what's coming out of asyx. This is just 1 single instance of the plugin loaded.
Excuse my rough timing, I recorded this in on a KordBot.. lol"

Tom Legio: Analog-inspired tom voice on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Tom Legio is an analog-inspired tom voice with plenty of punch, saturation, and wavefolding for taking things well beyond traditional tom sounds.

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

Let's start with Decay. This controls how long the toms ring out, from short, tight hits to longer booms.

Punch changes the impact of every hit.

The Tone switch adds different amounts of wavefolding, adding extra harmonics and crunch to the sound.

And if you want to push things further, the Saturation switch gives you three levels of drive at the output.

Pitch lets you tune Tom across a wide range, and a quick press of the Pitch encoder also mutes the voice.

You can bring other sounds into the audio inputs as well, and mix them directly with Tom's output.

Tom is just one way to build a percussion section with Legio. You'll also find Snare, Kick, Klang, Tymp, Bos, Cymbal, Marimba, and plenty of other voices and effects to swap for free with a USB connection.

UMWELT - Generative Ecosystem Synthesizer (VST / AU)

video upload by Laboratory 0

"UMWELT is a synthesizer made for listening. Press the capsule to generate an autonomous ecosystem with its own weather, tuning, four creature groups, and occasionally a language. Drag across the landscape to rotate the view. Active sounds light up and create ripples, revealing which group is active. The capsules along the top recall recent worlds.

Take your time with each world. Populations grow and decline, day turns to night, storms pass through, and the creatures copy each other's songs with small mistakes, so the same world sounds different ten minutes later.

rare birds: MXR Model 113 Digital Delay

video upload by ohm-studi-ohm

"When I first heard of this 1976 digital delay I excepted a lo-fi, harsh and dark delay. I was so wrong... This unit sounds surprisingly warm and clean for a digital fx of that era. Of course if you select the 2.5 Khz preset (which gives you up to 1280 ms of delay if the unit has 4 memory modules like this one) it's very lo-fi. But up to the 10khz preset its really clean.
And I didn't expected it to be such a great modulation fx. You can get anything from chorus, phaser, flanger to ring modulation.
Delay signal can be phase reversed by pulling the mix knob, which is what you want for modulation fx, and the sweep frequency also has 2 modes you select by pullling the knob.
The delay time can be externally adjusted, by mean of CV signal or a simple expression pedal. The later works great with guitar when the unit is in phasing/flanging settings, as the pedal acts like a kind of wah pedal. Here are some examples of what you can achieve with this unit. Though I didn't demo it, this delay sounds also great on keyboards.

"This 4HP module is a thru 0 VCO using the SSI2130 chip. It is designed as an FM operator as per the concepts delivered by John Chowning, so for best results 2 or more are needed (get 6!), along with suitable EGs and mixers. The NLC Valmorification (VC EG) and 4HP Mix are intended as support modules to develop an all analogue FM system. It contains the oscillator and VCA, the EG must be patched in. The thru-0 oscillator has a good variety of controls – control voltage, frequency modulation, phase modulation and hard sync.

The module only has a sine output as per a standard FM operator, although it generally spits out some very complex waveforms. I rarely do any further processing to the signal, such as VCFs or wave folding, there is enough going on.

Before going too far, please check the size and datasheet of the SSI2130 at https://www.soundsemiconductor.com/ . It is tiny and will be extremely difficult to solder by hand, much better to use solder paste and a hot air gun or a reflow oven. Also the circuit requires quite a few unusual resistor sizes that need to be obtained from Mouser or similar. This is not a regular NLC design, where all the resistors are just 1k, 10k and 100k. There are a few other components that have never been used on NLC modules before as well, nothing particularly rare or expensive, just probably not in your stash.

Thanks to Neil Johnson of Sound Semiconductor Inc. for his support and advice in developing this module.

Assembled modules are built to order. They will be ready to ship within 4 weeks after ordering."

A Unique Eurorack Multi FX Design // FUM by Nano Industries

video upload by DivKid

"Here's FUM from NANO Modules which is a Eurorack Multi FX module with a simple, easy to use interface and powerful unique design for combining and performing with multiple FX running at the same time. There's DJ style filtering, noise and texture generators, pitch shifting, two delay flavours, chorus, flanger, reverb ... all the good stuff and there's on board modulation LFOs and stepped random too! As usual loads of examples and techniques, all in the timing index below skip around and enjoy the video."

Six stereo effects, direct control. Delay, Reverb, Pitch, Chorus/Flanger, Texture and a Color filter. Each on a single bipolar control, where the centre is off and each direction opens a different character. An internal Motion modulator animates them all while you play and everything is under CV.

Key features

- Delay: Ping-pong repeats, clock-syncable, with three time ranges. Feedback runs clean one way, or distorted the other.

- Reverb: A natural Hall one way; Gated the other.

- Pitch: an octave up into shimmer, or an octave down for weight.

- Chorus / Flanger: chorus thickens, flanger sweeps. Rate follows your delay tempo.

- Texture: white noise or granular grit, rising and falling with your audio signal.

- Color: DJ-style filter across the whole mix: low-pass one way, high-pass the other.

- Motion: Internal LFO or Sample & Hold that animates the effects you have opened. One knob sets type, speed and depth at once.

- Freeze: Holds the delay and sustains the reverb indefinitely. Keep playing on top.

- 6 CV inputs + Clock input: fully patchable.

- RGB LEDs for every parameter, with clip warning.

Cymbal Legio: Voice based on granular metallurgy on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Cymbal Legio is a granular percussion voice built for tight hi-hats to crashes and rides.

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

Let's start with Type and Alloy. Together, these give you a range of different cymbal characters, from tight metallic hits to bigger, more resonant sounds.

Decay controls how long each hit rings out, while Tone lets you shape the brightness and character of the cymbal.

Then there's Morph. This blends between different grain sources.

And pressing the Morph encoder gives you a quick mute.

The Mix inputs let you bring other sounds into the Cymbal and mix them right alongside it.

Cymbal is just one way to transform your Legio. When you're ready to move beyond crashes and rides, check out the other synth voices, effects, resonators, and more for free with a USB connection.

Playing a Fugue with B.A.C.H.

video upload by Kaona Modular Music

"A short musical example with B.A.C.H., a generative Eurorack module.

Here, B.A.C.H. is used to build a polyphonic fugue, with several voices developing and interacting over time.

B.A.C.H. was designed to explore generative composition, counterpoint, repetition and evolution (without trying to replace the musician!)."

B.A.C.H. generates melodic, harmonic and rhythmic structures in real time. At each clock pulse, it determines the activity of the four tracks, along with their pitches, durations and dynamics. The result is shaped by the selected compositional language and the constraints defined by the musician.

The module controls a modular system directly through its Gate, Pitch and Mod outputs. It can also control MIDI synthesizers and sound modules. Each voice has its own configurable MIDI channel.

Twelve compositional languages
FUGUE constructs a multi-voice exposition from a subject, answers, a countersubject and episodes.

CANON develops a leading line through imitation, transposition, delay, contrary motion, retrograde or augmentation.

PROBA uses Markov chains and several transition vocabularies to produce directed randomness.

TINTINNABULI combines a melodic voice with voices whose notes are drawn from a triad or the current chord.

MINIMAL applies gradual processes of phase shifting, addition, substitution and hocketing.

Snare Legio: Analog-inspired snare voice on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Snare Legio is an analog-inspired snare voice with plenty of control over the body, noise, and punch of every hit.

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

Let's start with Decay. This controls how long the body of the snare rings out.

Noise controls the snare-wire character, letting you blend in as much noisy texture as you want.

The Impact switch changes the intensity of the attack, with three levels of punch from softer hits to much harder strikes.

Then there's the Wire switch, changing the tightness of the snare wires, giving you loose, standard, and tight variations on the sound.

And of course, Pitch lets you tune the whole voice, or add some modulation to get a little closer to industrial territory.

You can also press the Pitch encoder to mute.

With the audio inputs, you can bring in other sounds and mix them directly with the Snare's output.

Today your Legio is a snare drum. A quick USB swap and it can become a supersaw, wavefolder, granular processor, or something completely different.

Waldorf Wave (48 voice) Emulation in Software

video upload by Dave Whiting

"This video showcases my software recreation of the legendary Waldorf Wave—a hybrid wavetable synthesizer known for its huge digital oscillators, analogue filters and unusually complex hardware architecture.

The project is built in C++ using JUCE and is available as a standalone instrument and plug-in. Rather than simply making a modern synth that sounds similar, I’ve tried to reproduce the structure and behaviour of the original machine.

The emulation models:

• The Wave’s 250 kHz, 8-bit time-multiplexed wavetable oscillator system
• Signed mixer overflow—including the characteristic Waldorf “ASIC Mix Bug”
• Digital 12 dB high-pass filtering
• CEM3387-style reconstruction filtering, resonant four-pole low-pass filtering, VCAs and panning
• 12-bit stepped control voltages, sample-and-hold behaviour, saturation, noise and output coupling
• Three independent 16-voice WDV boards, matching a fully expanded 48-voice Wave
• The original 480 × 64 monochrome LCD and front-panel workflow

The instrument can also run authenticated Waldorf Wave OS 1.700 firmware. An emulated 68000 CPU executes the original main operating system, while a second runtime executes the genuine WDV voice-board program. Their shared-memory communication, voice-update masks, semaphores and hardware-register writes are reproduced and traced inside the model.

The oscillator ASIC itself remains undocumented, so its internal operation is represented by a behavioural model based on the Wave’s published architecture, firmware activity and known hardware characteristics. This is therefore an ongoing reverse-engineering and preservation project—not a claim of perfect, bit-exact emulation.

Waldorf and Wave are trademarks of their respective owner. This independent project is not affiliated with or endorsed by Waldorf Music.

Late Night Ambient | Eurorack Performance #39 (MOMENTS)

video upload by David Falcon

"Sometimes music has this magic healing power. While making this one I was reflecting a lot on the small beautiful moments of life we often overlook while we are busy with other stuff. I felt more grounded and inspired me to be more present, more aware. Right here, right now.

Patch notes:
I have tweaked a little bit my Palette case again. Zadar was not right for this build so I swapped it for Pamela's New Workout from my bigger case. As the FX was being used as a filter I then decided to bring back the Shakmat Dual Dagger to this case. I love this build so far.

This is my first time with Ornaments and Crime module. It always looked a bit intimidating with all the various modes, but for now I focused only in one (Acid Curds) which is the perfect pair for Saich. It sends 4 note chords to the 4 V/oct inputs of Saich creating these beautiful chords. To add more interest I have Saich in arp mode, modulated with an LFO from PAMS at a different subdivision than the chord sequence. This way pseudo-generative melodies are created. I was improvising changing the subdivision of the arp within Pams.

Then there are Mimeophon and Arbhar providing ambience to the track. Mimeophon is the delay and reverb for the Saich part and in the outro I looped a bit and improvised within the module. It is very performative, it is my favorite part of this module.
In Arbhar is just a simple sample of my kids playing with some instruments and there is a triangle hit in the middle that sometimes pops out in the mix. This element, despite being subtle, is what brings the emotional depth to this piece in my opinion."

The Crow Hill Company Announces Availability of Utterly Terrifying CHILDREN’S CHOIR

Utterly Terrifying Choir - WALKTHROUGH video upload by CROW HILL

Press release follows:


The Crow Hill Company announces availability of CHILDREN’S CHOIR, crafting terrifying sounds from school-age children to deliver broad spectrum of timbral possibilities

EDINBURGH, UK: The Crow Hill Company is proud to announce availability of CHILDREN’S CHOIR — crafting terrifying sounds from a school-age troupe of boys singing with just the right amount of ‘beautiful menace’ and an ability to be creative while working with the Edinburgh-based enterprise in support of delivering an instrument based around an expertly curated sample-set with a broad range of timbral possibilities designed by media composers with other media composers in mind — as of September 21…

Asked about the task of crafting CHILDREN’S CHOIR, The Crow Hill Company co-founder and media composer Christian Henson has his tongue not entirely out of his creative cheek in response, resurrecting the famous showbiz warning usually credited to American comedian W.C. Fields, effectively, by way of opening: “Never work with animals and children! So what’s this going to be like? Getting kids to be slightly demonic, evil, scary… they love it! And they totally seem to get making it so pretty that it’s scary. So we thought we’d try and nurture that spirit in a children’s choir library designed particularly for media composers — people who write for film, TV, and computer games. Why are these guys going to be wanting to use a children’s choir? Maybe there’s something set in a boarding school, maybe there’s something slightly choral and religious, but, more times than not, something unsettling is needed, and that’s where we’ve gone with this one. There are limits to how long children should be asked to perform. So, we thought we’d use the time thoughtfully, curating a selection of singing styles that capture this spirit. As opposed to giving you yet another library with ‘AAs’, ‘EEs’, ‘Ahs’, ‘Ohs’, and ‘MMs’, etcetera, AHOH, OHEH [and many more singing styles are available using the EXPRESSION wheel]. There’s some lovely WAVERING stuff where the pitch centres change. They sound great and scary when you cluster up, but on their own — or just a couple of notes — they have all sorts of childlike menace. There’s terrifying RISES and FALLS. And we’ve got a whole bunch of SHORT [singing styles].

You supply the ROM images; they are not included.

88EmuPlayer is NOT a DAW-compatible plugin, but instead a standalone application for playing MIDI files and using those devices from a MIDI keyboard, sequencer or game. 88EmuCli uses the same emulation to render files to WAV offline using a command line interface, without having to wait for the song to play in real time."
