Erthenvar Patch Chord as fake arpeggiator

YouTube Uploaded by siebenjager on Mar 9, 2012

"Terrible audio/video quality, just got a Patch Chord and wanted to show proof of concept on how it could be used as a fake arpeggiator.
PATCH:
4 outputs (+7, +12, -12, -5) going into VCA Matrix and being scanned through by quardrature outputs of Dr Octature. Signal is being run through Doepfer Wasp filter.
Pressure Points gate output is being used to "freeze" Dr Octature via an inverted envelope to 1V/oct in. PP pressure output is slewed then used to open filter.
Also, one of the unused outputs of Dr Oct is going through a comparator then used to step PP when not being played."

noisering quantimator jam

YouTube Uploaded by siebenjager on Nov 22, 2011

"Excuse the shitty camera and sound quality, it was all I had available to capture this patch and I liked it too much to let it completely vanish. It can be a bit slow to change sometimes due to the number of random control elements.

Basically it's a Noisering into a Quantimator controlling 2 E350s through an Optomix and Pittsburgh delay. Lots of feedback/recursive modulation from Wogglebug and Maths. Drums are Monotribe through Blacet I/O & Final Filtre and Bugbrand VCA/Drive."

Roland SPV-355 rare analog synth pitch-CV Gate

Trope SPV-355 Hog pt.2 video upload by siebenjager

Note Part 1 was not on YouTube.

"Trope generative music run through Roland SPV355 pitch-voltage analog synth, Space Echo, and Electroharmonix HOG. One channel of the iphone stereo output went to the HOG while the other fed the SPV-355 and the Space Echo in succession. The SPV is intended to track a monophonic input source so it gets glitchy as it locks onto different harmonics. More endless noodling."

Trope SPV-355 Hog pt.3


"fed it a cleaner signal this time, the hog output at octave up setting fed the 355 which then used the pitch conversion."

"This is a pretty unique little synth, it has a similar feature set to the SH2 with some differences but is a good alternative that fits in a rack. There is a front panel audio input that takes a monophonic signal, like a voice or a bassline, and generates voltages for the pitch CV (1v/oct), gate and envelope (followed from the source). You can then use these to control the internal 2 Oscillator analog synth, an external synth via CV/gate/envelope, or both simultaneously. There are also CV/Gate inputs for use as a standard synth module, you can use any cv/gate keyboard or midi/CV converter that gives 1v/octave. Audio ins and outs (with the exception of the effects send/return) are on the front panel and CV/gate I/O is on the rear.

I just posted some videos of it in use on Youtube under user ID siebenjager [below]. My favorite thing about it is how crude the pitch to voltage converter is, it makes it easily abusable. It tends to be more interesting when mistracking, though you can get it to track well if you send it a very clean well defined harmonically flat mono signal (like an oscillator or organ tone). When I want to use it as a "normal" synth I just run it off the CV/Gate inputs. For someone looking for a flexible guitar synth, this is probably the last thing I'd recommend. Ironically, I think this was its original intent as the output is pretty low output, probably -20, intended for an amplifier. But for someone looking for new sounds that wants to also be able to use bread-and-butter monosynth sounds this would fit the bill."
