The bank also comes with 51 accompanying CV/Audio files providing some processed Audio and Envelope / LFO CV Structures which can be used via the input channels to modulate destinations via Matrix Rows 8 and/or 9. These files may be used in your own non commercial patches to add extra functionality like percussive envelope transients and specially designed LFO shapes and fx. The first 4 Presets are related and can be morphed using the Snapshot Pad while being played via an external controller... This promotional video demos 4 short live compositions each using 2 presets, a sequence and a complimentary lead... cheers all..."

JEC Running Up That Hill - Fairlight Drone EXPANDED

video upload by James Edward Cosby

Update:

"Here are the settings required to recreate the #FairlightCMI #Drone used on #KateBush #RunningUpThatHill in #StrangerThings

The original was produced using a hardware CMI but anyone with an iPhone or iPad, can get a good approximation using the Peter Vogel CMI App available on the Apple App Store...

https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/peter-v...

The #CMI App does not have a low-pass filter so subsequently the resultant drone is brighter than the released version therefore a low-pass filter or eq will be required to adjust the tone to match the original. Oh and wear headphones!!!

The Fairlight samples and settings used are as follows... (Only one note is used per voice to match the original hardware and to increase the tuning and pan spread for a very wide stereo mix.)"

iVCS3 JEC Captivity Auto-Generative Preset

James Edward Cosby

"A single preset from the upcoming JEC iVCS3 Preset Bank release... "Captivity"...

This track was recorded live using only 1 instance of iVCS3 running an automated preset. Initial settings and parameter limits are stored in a preset and by using the awesome APESoft multi parameter LFO's, iVCS3 can be left unattended to produce unique textures ad infinitum..."

iVCS3 AUM Midi CV Conversion & CV Over Audio

Published on May 23, 2020 James Edward Cosby

"Example of using AUM To route CV over Audio Busses and how this can be used to convert Midi to CV. In addition to this the video shows how an iVCS3 Sequence can be transposed using a midi keyboard input. When transmitting Control Voltages over Audio Busses care must be taken with levels as these ultimately set the amount of modulation applied to the destination. This is especially true when the destination is an Oscillator's Frequency to obtain the desired Voltage to Octave ratio."

Published on May 20, 2019 James Edward Cosby

"Short demo performance of iVCS3 JEC 2019 Preset Bank - Preset "JEC Inter-City Seq" taken from a soon to be released 2019 Preset Bank... Endless fun...

This preset uses a punchy JECV Envelope encoded File fed into Input 2 to modulate the Filter via Matrix Row 9, the filter is also Inversely Frequency Mapped to the Sequencer Notes. The percussive sounds are provided by the noise module set to high colour and filtered. The sequence is interpolated to give the illusion of layered sequences...
