WMD Multimode Envelope - Drum Patch Example

Published on Aug 13, 2014 William Mathewson

"Alex from WMD explains and demonstrates a patch using two of the WMD Multimode Envelopes to create a drum pattern from modules not necessarily meant to make drum sounds.

He includes using the Envelope in "double attack" ADAR mode as well as the standard ADSR mode for some interesting patterns.

1970s Yamaha EM-130 Mixer w/ Beatbox Demo

Published on Aug 12, 2014 peahix

"This is an early Yamaha mixer with a built-in beatbox. I couldn't find any other audio demos of this thing online, so I figured I'd make one. It only has a few different preset beats, but as with most drum machines of this era, you can press multiple buttons at once and combine the beats to get more interesting patterns. The mixer also has a spring reverb, which the beatbox isn't hard-wired to, but you can get around that by patching one of the outputs to a channel input and turning up the reverb. I demonstrate this in the second part of the video. At the end I add in a little bit of the tuning knob."

Serge Pulse Sequencer Demo

Published on Aug 13, 2014 Todd Barton

"A little exploration of using the individual Pulse Outputs of the Serge TKB to create varied sounds and timbres from a single Serge Precision VCO. The concept is to trigger different DSGs (using either Trig In or IN) and varying the rise and falls times to get the sounds you like.
This is just the simplest of demonstrations – take it and run with it! Twist those knobs!!"

"Variable Gravity Lock" - Eurorack 9U Modular 250

Published on Aug 13, 2014 Strange UFO Music

"Just one more module to go will make this 9U eurorack a 250hp size system!

A Preview of things to come! Some new modules to be used in upcoming videos will include: Expert Sleepers Distings (2 of them, those bright flashy black ones!). 4 impressively expressive compact Ladik modules, direct from Europe, and the Make Noise STO SubTimbral Oscillator!

Featured as a new modules in this video is the Tip Top Audio SD808 snare drum. A 4hp size enhancement to my Delptronic modules. Still makes for a very compact (only 14hp space) for a complete drum kit. Compare the snare drum sound in this video to the last video before this (Percussion work 4). Also, the Ladik L-110 LFO 1 is the driving clock source in this, a very fun module that does a lot in a very small space.

Straight forward 4/4 fat back drum beat pattern throughout. 16th notes hihat, and percussion solo. Morphing Bass vamp accompanies. which occasionally morphs in to alien like voices. Something fun for everyone! Thanks for watching! :)"

MFB DOMINION X SEMI-MODULAR ANALOG DESKTOP SYNTHESIZER

"DOMINION X is the new synth from MFB. It combines the advantages of analog sound generation, storability and modular patch options. With improved circuitry, advanced features and new design DOMINION X is the first in a new class MFB.

Performance
The three oscillators in DOMINION X provide maximum functionality. Each waveform can be modulated in the symmetry. That is, it can not only the pulse width of the rectangle, but also sawtooth to triangle and triangle can be continuously changed to sinus. All three oscillators have downstream ring modulators, it can be synchronized VCO 2 and 3 to VCO 1. Further allows VCO 1 and 2 from VCO3 modulate in frequency. A microprocessor-controlled temperature regulation ensures tuning stability of the analog VCO circuit. Finally, it can complement the Mixer to white noise or an external sound source to the VCO.

The filter has six different modes. There are three low-pass filters with 12 .. 24 dB / oct. Slope. Add to this a high and bandpass and a bandstop filter with 12 dB and 6 dB / oct. Slope. The filter can be modulated by means of invertible envelope keytracking, LFO, VCO, various MIDI controllers and the CV input with external control voltage.

The two ADSR envelopes are assigned to the VCF and VCA. Envelope 1 can also modulate the VCO. The LFO 1 and 2 have six waveforms, including sample and hold. You can also enable a one-shot mode, by which they are to Minihüllkurven. A third LFO that has the sine waveform can, in conjunction with the modulation of a keyboard for the dynamic control of VCO, VCF and VCA are used.

The allocation of the modulators via selectors, which can be found in addition to the respective destinations. In this way the internal modulations change extremely quickly - ideal for live performance.

For the integration of external modulation, control and audio sources, there are nine inputs. Oscillators, filter, VCA, CV / Gate and the mixer DOMINION X can be so ideal with other analog synthesizers such as the MFB MEGAZWERG, connect Analogsequenzern such as the MFB URZWERG PRO or modular systems.

An extra selector allows for the assignment of velocities up to 11 different modulation destinations.

DOMINION X has 128 presets for your own sound creations. To assist you in sound programming without keyboard connected there are various demo sequences. For the use of filters as DOMINION X via the audio input allows the VCA open permanently. Insert jack on the rear, a distortion pedal or effects unit can be looped into the signal path.

DOMINION X has the dimensions 330 x 170 x 60 mm. Power is supplied via the included AC adapter"
