New microTERA Waveshaping Synthesis for iPad

iTunes: microTERA - VirSyn

"Waveshaping Synthesis is a type of distortion synthesis that can create dynamic spectra in a controlled way. In waveshaping, it is possible to change the spectrum with the amplitude of the sound. A simple example of this method is the clipping caused by overdriving an audio amplifier.

These simple method creates an astonishing variety of sounds which are very unique and can't be reproduced by any other contemporary synth!

microTERA gives you also a method of getting randomly generated sound patches in a way you never experienced before: roll the dice! Every single try gives you a new unique sound patch, really every try, promised…

- Delay
- Frequency shifter
- Envelope follower
- “Lorenz attractor”
- Quantizer
- Sample-and-hold
- Reverb
- Special Lowpass filter
- Clipper
- Nonlinear shaper (for self-oscillating circuit)

- Audiobus support. Now you can stream live audio directly to other Audiobus-compatible apps! See http://audiob.us for more information. Works as input and filter.
- Background audio support: enabled when connected to Audiobus and user switchable otherwise.

"Kits and built units are available from http://groovesizer.com
In this video three Groovesizer REDs are synced via MIDI clock sent from the first unit. Launching a pattern on the first unit sends a MIDI trigger to the units further along the chain to launch the same pattern. The MID channel for sending trigger messages is 10 by default, but it can be changed on the preferences page."

Trip to the Catacombs - Buchla timbral improv

Published on Feb 24, 2014 djangosfire·170 videos

"I was inspired by a recent Todd Barton Buchla clip/patch, that featured a 294r 4-Channel Comb Filter... So while exploring a similar idea, using 4x channels of a 295r Comb Filter... I came up with this "Trip to the Catacombs" Buchla timbral improv!

There is allot going on in the patch. But basically, the very CORE of the patch is:

- 258r into a 277r Delay
- 277r Delay into a 295r Comb Filter
- 4 separate channels of the 295r out into 4x separate 292 LPG channels
- 4 LPG channels into a 207r mixer, mixed and panned into stereo
- 207r stereo out into 2x channels of the 227r mixer
- KEY PART OF THE SOUND is I have 4x different 208r Random Voltage outs opening and closing the 4x separate LPG channels!
- also, the 277r delay is feedback into itself... so you get nice repeats.... and remember, the delay out is the ONLY audio going into the 295r comb filter.

Of course, there is sequencing via the 208r, and transposing via 218e Presets (also used to control the cross mod FM amount of the 258r).

Thanks for checking out the vid!!
