F5D Prophet 12 Demo

"A short demo that I [F5D] recorded using my custom Prophet 12 patches, multitracked in logic with some fx. Thank you Dave Smith and DSI for this synthesizer!"

The Electric Music Box - Sketches Vol. 2: With a Little Help

""The Electric Music Box - Sketches Volume 2: With a Little Help" is a project that uses the new Buchla Music Easel and just one (!) additional peace of gear for each track as only sound sources.

Like 'Volume 1' this release is in no way meant to be an Easel 'Demo'. It will take you to a lot of dark places where you can find everything from a bit of hope to loneliness and fear.

So close your eyes and enjoy the journey!

And if you enjoyed this at least a bit, please give 'The Electric Music Box - Sketches Volume 1: The Solo Parts' another Chance!"

Grayscale Algorhythm vs Nord Drum 2

Grayscale Algorhythm vs Nord Drum 2 from Grayscale on Vimeo.

"Short clip showing one Algorhythm and two Binary modules sequencing a Nord Drum 2.

Steps 1 and 3 of the Algorhythm are patched out to one Binary (off screen). The combined trigger output is sent to the first input of the ND, triggering the noisy low-frequency sound.

Steps 2, 4, and 6 are patched to another Binary and manipulated further during playback. The output of this Binary is patched to the second input of the ND, triggering a high-frequency FM sound.

Steps 5 and 7 are patched directly to the third and fourth trigger inputs of the ND.

Step 8 is patched through the first channel of the Triatt and then sent to the fifth trigger input of the ND. Using the Triatt provides a way to dampen the intensity of the trigger or mute it completely.

The Pattern output of the Algorhythm is patched through the second channel of the Triatt and then sent to the sixth trigger input of the ND. This triggers a short pitched blip that also chokes the other sounds, giving a choppy vibrato effect as the decay of the other five sounds is cut off abruptly (audible around 1:11).

The pattern switches between random and linear playback after every 16 clock pulses, creating a beat that bounces back and forth between a repetitive segment and a completely random segment. This is done by patching a 1/32 clock divider from the A160 to the Mode CV input of the Algorhythm. Turning steps 1-8 on and off during playback provides additional variation.

Apart from an oscillator to provide a clock source for the Algorhythm, no other modules were used. All sounds are being generated by the Nord Drum 2."
