Welcome To The Pittsburgh Modular Generator

Welcome To The Pittsburgh Modular Generator from Brooks Rongstad on Vimeo.

"A solid overview of the features and sound capabilities. Pitch inputs of both VCOs sequenced by the Makenoise Rene' - driven by the Pittsburgh Timetable. Maths provides an Envelope generator to the built-in VCA of the Generator."

Modular Test!!

"Testing out a few new toys! Borg Filter, 4ms RCD, Wogglebug, Noisering. Modular noodling over a watery sea patch from my dotcom."

"THERE ARE TWO MODIFICATIONS- A SWITCH BY THE PITCH BEND WHEEL THAT CUTS OFF/ON BOTH OSCILLATORS, AND 4 EXTRA 1/4 INCH PORTS ON THE BACK, ONE OF WHICH SAYS "VCF" (I ASSUME THESE ARE CV INPUTS THAT CONTROL ASPECTS BESIDES PITCH, BUT DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT TO TEST OUT)"

Buchla to CV to MIDI

YouTube Uploaded by spindizzyman on May 24, 2011

"Using silent way and format jumbled and Korg mixer to get cv into ableton. Then using silent way cv to midi to output notes to a piano using kore 2.

Thanks to Deadmau5 for the "challenge" and keeping me up late."

Modular Beat

Modular Beat from Isotope Of Me on Vimeo.

"This little demonstration is day 1 with some new modules: No midi or computer was used to generate the sound, this is strictly modular synth only, alone, with nothing else, at all, and stuff. This patch consists of 2 oscillators, 1 filtet, 1 doepfer quad eg, the 4ms RCD, an LFO, a Ring Modulator, a noise source, TipTop Audio ZDSP, and a Doepfer VC Mixer.

Both of the oscillators and the filter are doing double duty as modulators and sound sources. The LFO is triggering the RCD, which in turn is sending triggers to the quad envelope generator. The EGs are driving the CV inputs of the 4 input CV mixer which is acting as 4 vcas. The filter is self oscillating, and being ring modulated by one of the outputs of the Z3000.

All of that, in turn, is being fed into the right and left inputs of the ZDSP using the dragonfly delay card. The stereo delay is set to a very short delay time, with 50% feedback, and a LPF filtering out the high frequency ringing. I can’t call it Karplus Strong, but I can call it Karplus Weak. The delay is giving the beat a lot of its body, and bass."
