Tiptop Audio 230t & a Simmons Pad - First Patch [No Talk]

video upload by Stazma

"More infos and affiliate links in the description // Support on Patreon to get samples from this session: / stazma

This was the very first patch I did when I got the 230t from Tiptop. I wanted to check if I could use my Simmons drum pads with it. I also wanted to know how it would behave as an envelope generator using pulses from the 200t system itself so I used the 245t to trigger it and act on a droning 259t.

Then I just played around and that's the result."

Tiptop Audio & Buchla 230t Demo

video upload by Stazma

"Today we are going to check out the new module from the Tiptop & Buchla 200t serie: the Triple Envelope Follower Model 230t.

It's a fantastic addition to the 200t echosystem, that will let you control dynamic or timing with external audio such as, microphone, samples, drum pads, electric instruments, field recording or anything in that spirit. It can also be used as an decay envelope in the system or in compression / expansion patches."

TipTop Buchla 230t – Triple Envelope Follower // Interact with your patches!

video upload by Dexba

"The Buchla 230 is here, and while it might not be the shiniest module (I know you're lusting after the tenth granular effect or the twelfth tape-inspired contraption), it's quite a useful and FUN one!
Not only does it stop the modular from being this separated entity, and it gives it back the ability to listen and interact with the real world, but analysing the internal signals can be a productive endeavour too.
In this video, I'll show you some cool patches, and I will introduce the concept of sidechain in the Buchla system, which in this case was used in the most common way we associate with the term, but it can also be a powerful tool to swell reverbs, make multiple voices arise in a sea of notes, and, in general, make more lively patches :)"

IM TZ Dual VCO demos

video upload by Todd Barton

"This and other great modules are available at https://www.infinitemachinery.com/

Also, there will be a booth at Knobcon next month https://www.knobcon.com/"

"The TZ Dual VCO is two full featured VCOs on in a single 16HP module. Both VCOs output sine, square, saw, triangle and PWM wave forms. Each VCO also has thru-zero and expotential FM input. The type of FM is selectable using a toggle switch. An important feature of TZ Dual VCO is the FM input for each VCO can be control by a VCA input. A potentiometer adjusts the overall maximum of the FM input while the VCA provides an amplitude envelope.

Each VCO has the following inputs:

1V/Oct
PWM CV
FM signal
FM signal VCA
Each VCO has the following wave form outputs:

Sine
Square
Saw
Triangle
PWM
Each VCO has these adjustment knobs:

Coarse
Fine
PWM
FM amount
The upper VCO can be synced with the square wave of the lower VCO. A three position toggle switch is used to select hard sync (up), soft sync (down), or no sync (center).

Current requirements - 130mA +12V, 130mA -12V"
