BugBrand BugCrusher & Rotating Clock Divider

YouTube via wonkythomas
"3 minutes after my first 10 minutes with the AMAZING BugBrand BugCrusher!!! So happy to finally have one of Toms blue bueties! This thing is awesome, super dense / compact PCB & the sound far surpasses my expectations (which where pretty high to begin with)

Pretty much the same as the last patch except the VCOs get run thru the BugCrusher, then into the CGS Wave Multiplier.... WOW! What a combination! Starts off with the sample rate really low & the VCOs tuned right down to LFO speeds, then ramps everything up. The BugCrusher rate is being CV'd by my Presets module which gives it that stepped, rythmic feel.

I increase the "Glide" amount - a LPF at audio rates & the sound loses all the harshness so the Wave Folding comes thru more & you end up with that 'sort of' plucked string sound. No filters (except inside the Crusher), no low pass gates, just loads twisted waveforms!"

4ms Rotating Clock Divider

YouTube via wonkythomas
"4ms RCD in Banana Frac format!!!
Yes! That is correct. Dann @4ms hooked me up with an RCD board, no panel etc. So, if you plugged your Euro RCD in backwards a little while ago THANK YOU!!!! Cos after it was fixed I bought it :D

This thing is way more fun than any module should legally be!

The "voice" here is two Blacet VCOs VC Waveforms, which are crossfaded, sometimes at audio rate, being sequenced by a combination of 2 Binary Zones, a Mini-Wave w/ scale quantizer & a Doepfer 156 Dual Quantizer - a little OTT.

The RCD takes the main clock (MFB Dual LFO squarewave) & spits pulses every which way. The 8008 is being triggered by a bunch of RCD outs run thru the Doepfer 152 sequential switch section.

Metalbox Dual AD is also getting triggered by the RCD & is CVing the CGS Wave Multiplier.

The combination of VC Waveforms, Crossfading & Wave Folding really peals my potatoes, just an absurb timbral range. FM the VC Mixer, modulate the harmonic content of the VCOs waveforms, wobble the folds... oh my days."

Collin's Lab: Kit-making

YouTube via makemagazine

"When recently faced with the dauntingly tedious task of assembling my first-ever batch of electronics kits, I was lucky enough to have the ever-helpful eye of seasoned kit-maker Becky Stern close by. While observing my one-man assembly 'process', Becky advised a more efficient, modular assembly line technique using intermediary storage vessels better known as "plastic cups". Streamlining the process left me with plenty of time to cook up some some unusually fancy title/motion graphics for the above-seen video.

DIY Controller Building - Turn Tutorial

"In this tutorial I cover using the Turn Builder Board and the Brain. This will show you how to wire rotary potentiometers to build your own controller. You do not need to use the Turn board with the Builder Brain, but it provides you with a modular circuit board to use surface mount components."

A-100 patch: Day 0032

YouTube via beckhusen
"Included a 2nd VCO in my A-100 analog Modular System. I'm really enjoyed about the fat sound, it's much more than with only 1 VCO. This patch setup is only a test, also for the Clock Sequencer and Clock Divider. Read in the video which modules are included in this setup"

some random noise messing with make noise pressure points and the anti osc

"just a little noise jam i made with the make noise pressure points controling the filter cv and the wave env on the anti osc"

the rest of the noise jamm faster tempo more noise
