New Uses for Old Circuits

"New Uses for Old Circuits is a series looking at linear and nonlinear processes in the modular system.

In this video we get right to the heart of the matter and discover what defines a linear system (and therefore what defines a nonlinear system). Linear systems are systems that obey the laws of homogeneity and superposition, whereas nonlinear systems are ones that break these laws."

New Uses for Old Circuits

"New Uses for Old Circuits is a series looking at linear and nonlinear processes in the modular system.

In this video we go through every module in the Serge synthesizer to discover which circuits create an inversion at the output. As a result, we create perhaps the most boring synthesizer video on YouTube, but we also lay some important groundwork for the future - creating a conceptual map of the Serge that will be very helpful in feedback patching.

Apologies about the periodic focusing issues - I'm still working on it :)"

New Uses for Old Circuits 01: Slew Generators as Lowpass Gates

New Uses for Old Circuits

"New Uses for Old Circuits is a series looking at linear and nonlinear processes in the modular system.

In this video we start from the basics and look at the two most famous modules of the Serge system: the Dual Universal Slope Generator (DUSG) and Smooth/Stepped Generator (SSG). These two flavors of slew generator allow us to not only create modulation sources but process audio signals, acting as low level lowpass filters."
