"Like-Minded" Koma Elektronik Chromaplane with Biofeedback

video upload by Stephano Gavilanes

"First exploration with the Koma Elektronik Chromaplane analog synthesizer, and brainwaves via the SoundMachines BI1👌🏽

Beta waves are sending control voltages into the Chromaplane filter, and Apha waves modulating the delay time. I also made a finger ring to hold a magnet while performing with the pickups, it helps generate a subtle kick sound when tapped with a pickup💡

The Chromaplane is an inspiring masterpiece! 🖤

t-spectrum - First look and tutorial

video upload by soundmachines

"T-SPECTRUM
The long awaited series of modules based on the success of the LS1Lightstrip, it's finally here!
t-spectrum is a spectral processor with onboard distortion that can create gentle percussion like sound or completely destroy your sound. Use at you own risk ;)

CHAPTERS:
00:00 - Quick interface explanation
01:17 - Functionalities demo with White Noise
05:56 - Using the touchstrips
07:55 - Recording automations, the Loop/One-Shot modes and the reset input
11:11 - The Distorted output
11:38 - Sound demos"

T-spectrum takes the concept of merging modulation sources and destinations into a single module.

T-spectrum is a spectral processor, an organic sound sculpting tool transforming drastically what passes through it.

The powerful modulation engine lets you hear frequency bands dance, smoothly or frantically. Bring life to your patches with free running or resettable custom drawn modulations.

Maximum automation recording length of 20s for each parameter.

MODE allows to change between 1/2/4/16 (max) bands

FREQ moves the filter initial frequency

SPREAD changes the bandpass filters Q peak

TILT moves the selected peaks around the spectrum.

The integrated touch lightstrip controllers can drive four parameters with looping or one-shot recording playback mode on each track with global RESET input.

Secondary distorted output.

Features list :
•Spectral processor
•Four channels parameters recorder
•Up to 20 seconds automation recording time
•Looping, One shot and Hold modes for automations
•CV input and physical control for parameters
•Normal and Distorted outputs
•Four modes: 1/2/4/16 bands
•Modify resonance peaks and move the bands around the spectrum

•Current draw: 150 mA (+12 V) / 20 mA (-12 V)
•Width: 8 HP
•Depth: 34 mm

t-formant - First look and tutorial

video upload by soundmachines

"T-FORMANT
The long awaited series of modules based on the success of the LS1Lightstrip, it's finally here!

t-formant is the successor of the RB1robotto formant filter, with added capabilities and 2 more FXs included!

CHAPTERS:
00:00 - Quick interface explanation
01:12 - How it works
03:29 - Using the sliders
05:50 - Recording automations and the reset input
08:52 - The internal VCO
10:33 - Switching EXT IN/VCO demo"

t-formant takes the concept of merging modulation sources and destinations into a single module.

Collecting the heritage of our discontinued module RB1robotto, T-formant is a comprehensive formant filter and synthesizer. Its capability to filter external signals is layered with the possibility, when the user applies a CV signal to the relevant input, to generate its own base tone. Adding to the base parameters of formant-type and peak resonance, you can also add flanging and distortion to the output, creating a wide palette of vocal based sounds.

Maximum automation recording length of 20s for each parameter.

Vowel based filter with bypass, formant selection and peak resonance knob.

Process external audio, with formant filtering, flanger or distortion effects, from subtle to heavy sound mangling.

If nothing is patched on its input, T- formant can be used an oscillator following V/Oct standard.

The integrated touch lightstrip controllers can drive four parameters with looping or one-shot recording playback mode on each track with global RESET input.

Features:
•Vowel formant filter and synth voice
•Four channels parameters recorder
•Up to 20 seconds automation recording time
•Looping, One shot and Hold modes for automations
•CV input and physical control for parameters
•Process external audio by filtering, flanging and distortion
•Bypass effect, Resonance Peak and Formant control

•Current draw: 150 mA (+12 V) / 20 mA (-12 V)
•Width: 8 HP
•Depth: 34 mm

13:13 - The FM Input and sound demos"

Check with dealers on the right for availability.

t-generator takes the concept of merging modulation sources and destinations into a single module.

t-generator is a multi-parameter Thru-Zero FM VCO. Main outputs are a pure sine wave with its warm sounding harmonically rich wavefolder, a triangle and a morphable square oscillator.

Four independent lightstrips engines controlling four sound sculpting parameters

Bring life to your patches with free running or resettable custom drawn modulations.

Maximum automation recording length of 20s for each parameter.

V/Oct, Thru-Zero FM, PWM and FOLD modulation inputs.

Along with Pulse Width, Fold and Saw morphing, you can play with its Vibrato parameter that will generate a wide palette of effects, starting from subtle vibrato to chaotic frequency modulation.

The integrated touch lightstrip controllers can drive four parameters with looping or one-shot recording playback mode on each track with global RESET input.

Features:
•Eurorack oscillator with self-modulation capabilities
•Four channels parameters recorder
•Up to 20 seconds automation recording time
•Looping, One shot and Hold modes for automations
•CV input and physical control for oscillator parameters
•Three independent outputs (Triangle / Sine with fold / Morphable Square with PWM)
•Vibrato parameter ranging from subtle to S&H style pitch modulation
•Thru-Zero FM input

•Current draw: 150 mA (+12 V) / 20 mA (-12 V)
•Width: 8 HP
•Depth: 34 mm
