Doepfer Dark Energy filtered by Vermona Perfourmer

YouTube via Themaktima
"The Doepfer Dark Energy is a powerful little synth. It becomes even more powerful, though, when hooked up with a Vermona Perfourmer. The Perfourmer can act as a filterbank for external signals. But what makes it really cool is that you can use the "Poly" mode to apply individual filter and envelope settings to sequential steps. Lets you add lots of variety to the anyway lively basic sound of the Dark Energy, indeed. With a little more practice, I´m sure I can get much better results than in the video. Gotta love these analog machines."

Doepfer Minicase Modular Synthesizer - Acid Test

YouTube via redv0id
" redvoid& funky49 testing out the minicase doepfer modular synth with a basic acid groove. the modular has only 3 modules a TipTop Z3000 VCO, a Doepfer A-140 ADSR & a Doepfer A-120 VCF. MIDI-cv/gate conversion is being done through one of the 4 channels on the Syntechno TeeBee, though it makes no sound. The drums are abasic beat made of TR-909 samples. The synth part never changes, and the drums are one pattern plus or minus an instrument. Drum pads on the Akai MPK-49 are being used to trigger Ableton scenes but only really change the drum parts. Akai faders are employed to add effects to the drums or synth. This is just a quick experiment to see what variations we could get from two simple parts and some effects performance, and synth tweaking."

Bugmodular algorithmic acid extract

YouTube via darenager
"A short snippet of a longer tweaking session, using some of my new Bugmodular modules, the Bug SV filter has a nice tone to it, in this clip I'm using the low pass output into a Blacet miniwave. This is just a demo of me messing around, but I will be putting a full track up featuring these modules soon.
Hope you enjoy it :)"
