VTX-VSTRON - KORG Monotron Inspired VST

via Vetrix:
"VSTron is a free VST-Plugin that is well suited to create special FX sounds .

VSTron is an effective and fun VST unit that is capable of producing different kinds of effects such as Laser sounds , Fast LFO's , Ascending/Descending Sweeps , Filtered madness , Bubbling Bleeps or attacking Ramps .

Initially inspired by the Korg Monotron the VSTron includes 1 Osc ( Saw , Sine , Triangle , Ramp , Pulse , White Noise and Pink Noise ) and 1 VCF Osc with 4 modes ( Low Pass , High Pass , Band Pass , Band Reject ) as well as 1 Main Envelope . To further modulate things you have 2 Envelopes and 2 LFO's that can be individually assigned to different parameters and some built-in effects such as Drive , Delay and Chorus ."

Serge modular - Second patch

YouTube via MechaSeb76 | January 26, 2011 |

"My Serge modular arrived this morning. After discovered a bit i tried to make a rhythmic sound with the entire system. Some of modules are not used in this video but ... here it is.

サージモジュラーが届いてから、数時間。モジュール一つ一つの機能を研究しながら、多少リズムのあるパッチ作りにチャレンジしてみました。エンジョイして下さい！"

Control - more advanced interfaces

Control - more advanced interfaces from charlie roberts on Vimeo.

"Demos of Conway's Game of Life and a basic drum sequencer. The clock for both interfaces is generated by the JavaScript runtime; the transport in Live isn't even running.

The interfaces, timing and interaction are all written in JavaScript and are good examples of the complexity that scripting support enables.

The two files shown are:
charlie-roberts.com/Control/interfaces/life.js
charlie-roberts.com/Control/interfaces/sequencer.js"

Note sure which iOS app that is but it could be Runxt's Life. If anyone knows, feel free to comment and I'll update the post.

Random Gates Demo.mov

"Yves Usson's Random Gates module from a Bridechamber kit. This has a 5U MOTM style front panel and the stooge bracket is too large for my cabinet. I have an MU panel being made by Big Blue Wave to replace this.
The RG module is clocked from the oscillator on board the Q960 sequential controller from synthesizers.com. In turn the eight outputs from the RG is sent back into the in stages on the Q960. This forces each related stage to fire as the RG randomly selects them.
The staccato mode has a trigger that is too fast for the Q960 so the sequencer tends to add two stages together in that mode. When in legato mode the overlap goes away but as a gate is extended from the Random Gates module the Q960 will step forward to the next stage.
The module was my first build in many years. It was fairly easy and took about 4 hours to put together. I had a few things to straighten out in the end but it all went pretty well. The kit was very complete but I added some parts such as the LED sockets and some IC sockets for the chips.
The Q119 sequencer is also playing in random mode. The function is entirely internal on that module. Both sequencers are sending voltage to four oscillators. Two ring modulators are used for each pair of oscillators. One row of the Q960 along with an LFO is managing the cv panner module. A row of the Q119 is sent to the Sea Devils filter for accents.
