Modular synth jam with Schaltwerk, MAQ, i30

Published on Nov 12, 2013 Phil Tipping·57 videos

"Live noodling using chord sequence from D.C. in A Minor Excursion (35:57 in http://youtu.be/qXDtcDm7WS0), using Dotcom synth, Schaltwerk, MAQ & Korg i30 arranger keyboard. Patterns from earlier MAQ video (http://youtu.be/mV91BvJFsxw) tweaked & transferred to Schaltwerk to free up MAQ for VCF control.
The unexpected syncopation from earlier video traced to fractional length pattern being gated on its off beat, so on-beat notes become audible when EG decay/release increased.
Korg i30 used in Arranger mode so backing style follows chords played with left hand; right hand plays melody.

Midi sync & clocks distributed from Sequetron to Schaltwerk, MAQ & i30 via Philip Rees MIDI Merge 2M unit used as a 'thru' device; can just squeeze 3 outputs from 1 input. The MIDI Thru W5 unit would be more logical but it wouldn't transmit MIDI sync/clocks; may have been faulty but wasted lots of time doubting the deopfer gear (and sanity) so didn't investigate further!"

The Sushi Thief

The Sushi Thief from Mike Lynch on Vimeo.

"I've been listening a lot to the new Alessandro Cortini 'Forse 2' record the past few days and wanted to have a go at doing something in the same style with modules similar to that found on the Buchla Music Easel. I cheated a little by incorporating a second oscillator and a second sequencer but I'm pretty happy with the results.

I've named it 'The Sushi Thief' as I was accosted by security at my local Tesco supermarket yesterday on suspicion of theft! Eventually, my items were verified as paid for and I left a free man.

"The First half of this video is an 'On The Run' style sequence with direct audio. The second half of the video unfortunately takes audio from the built-in camera microphone and shows the Snow Fall filter being modulated by a Make Noise MATHS."

Synthrotek EKO Demo

Published on Nov 11, 2013 PatchingMonk·1 video

"Demo of the Synthrotek EKO, a CVable echo effect. Please note that this is a prototype module, and the feedback and mix knobs are backwards. They are corrected on the final release.

The basics of the patch:

Audio source is from the Livewire Electronics Audio Frequency Generator's Animated Pulses and Pulse Out sections -into- 2 inputs on Intellijel's uVCA (cv modulated by 2 Circuit Abbey ADSRjrs) -into- 2 Synthrotek EKOs (rate cv modulated by Livewire Electronics Chaos Computer) -into- 2 inputs panned Left & Right on the Circuit Abbey Unify.

You're hearing 1 EKO module in each ear, played with one note only so that you can hear the intensity of the rate cv being modulated by the Chaos Computer. From spacey echos, bell tones, to rhythmic percussive pulses, this module makes some seriously intense sounds."
