Inside Synthesis EP3: Introduction to Modular Synthesizers (2007)

Inside Synthesis - Introduction to Modular Synthesizers

YouTube Published on Apr 29, 2012 by insidesynthesis
Update: re-named 12/30/2018. Was Inside Synthesis - Intro to Modular Synthesizers w/ the Mattson Mini Modular.

A blast from the past. You might recognize the system used in this video as the Mattson Mini Modular prototype. Be sure to see my notes after the video description directly below in quotes for some interesting history.

"Episode 3 from the original series - a very basic introduction to modular synthesizers.

Correction #1 - I refer to modulating the amplitude of an audio signal with another audio rate signal as Ring Modulation (RM). I should have said Amplitude Modulation (AM).

RM is certainly related to AM, but there's a distinct difference. RM is implemented in such a way that the carrier and modulator's frequencies are eliminated from the signal. You only hear the sums and difference frequencies of the carrier and modulator, but not the original carrier and modulator frequencies.

Interestingly enough, the AC-coupled circuitry that does RM is ring shaped.

Correction #2 - Neither RM nor AM add harmonic frequencies. They add sidebands of inharmonic frequencies - hence the metallic and dissonant sound."

Some interesting history on the MMM used in this video:
Yes it was originally going to be cream colored, as introduced in this post. It turned out the printing on the more durable adhesive could not get the color right and rather than settle, George Mattson came out with the updated black color scheme. I actually had the option to go with the original color scheme or the more durable updated black with my Production Prototype #1. As you can see I went with the black. The first MMM post on MATRIXSYNTH? Here you go: Mmm.... People got pretty worked up with this one and the posts that followed (note these are in reverse order so scroll down to the bottom).

via this auction

"Very underrated synth. Very similar sound to CZ synths BUT with analogue filters/VCA/Chorus and crunchy drum machine. [Update: Note the HT-700 used SD Synthesis while the CZ used Phase Distortion similar to Yamaha's FM synthesis] Boxed, as new condition with plastic over the screen:

Analogue filters
Analogue VCAs
Analogue Chorus
Sampled 8-bit drum sounds that resemble the legendary Casio RZ-1 drum machine
Fully programmable drum machine
3 part multitimbral (full control over midi plus from the keyboard)
Same as the HT-3000 but mini keys

Below videos are not mine (and AWFUL audio quality) but they do show what sounds are capable with a few simple mods... Here is a sound demo from the actual synth that is for sale: http://punkdisco.co.uk/misc/misc/audio/demo.mp3"

"Very special GROOVE-MODULATOR Drum Machine
Circuit Bent, and then some.......

Based on a Very Modified HR-16 Drum Machine, this instrument has been beautifully Restored, Circuit Bent, Upgraded, Retro-fitted with a fully patchable Analog Step-Sequencer & Custom Acid ROMs which transform the machine into unique and powerful Techno-Glitch Synthesizer unlike any other...

This machine's capable of producing an astonishing array of mindbending Electronic sounds, Phat Beats, Amen Loops, Synth Effects, Computer Speech and even complex Modulating Bass-Lines...

Not to mention of course, an arsenal of rich & Dynamic sounding digital Glitch effects, which can only be acheived by quality circuit bent gear.

This HR-16 now contains the latest O.S. and the Alesis 'Electronic' ROMs from the Black version of the HR-16, which (in my opinion) are far superior to the original acoustic kit. The pads & buttons are all clean and very responsive, and the Red LED lights have been replaced with beautiful Blue, Green & Purple LEDs. Custom chrome knobs & metal washers are used along with bi-colour blue / Green LED lights to indicate the various new functions of this very unique machine.

This machine can operate as a standard 'stock' HR-16 drum machine if required, with no functions affected."
