Cwejman RG-6 "Bit Crush” Patch

Published on Sep 26, 2014 bigcitymusic

"*Dave Smith Instruments DSM01 Curtis Filter is set to self oscillator. The resulting sine wave is routed into the EXT SIGNAL input of the Cwejman RG-6.
*The RG-6 Clock is set to audio rate. Signal Sample level controls
the amount of the external signal to be sampled by the RG-6. Monitor the signal out from either the low, medium or high probability spread of the RG-6.
*Decreasing the rate of the RG-6 clock begins producing a
“bit crushing” effect on the external signal. Notice the higher
frequencies begin to deteriorate first.
*Experiment with the Slew and Clock Rate CV parameters for further color and dynamics."

Oxygen IV Cover By PolyEvolver

"Having just got a few new additions to the studio, I thought I'd test them out and make a classic. Always good to hear this song from the Grandfather of synths Jean Michel Jarre. Hope you like it."

via James Mcculloch on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge:

"Ok I made this quickly this morning as a demo of what the System 1 and Novation Mini Nova can do together. heres a breakdown of the track.
Track 1:- Arpeggio made on SH2 plug out, used a saw and a square and a tiniest bit of filter.
track 2:- Bass line , SH2 plug out, 2 squares, no pwm, little filter but mostly closed.
track 3:- Lead SH2 plug out, 2 saws, slight detune, midrange filtering with native delay and reverb
track 4:- drums straight tom ultra beat in logic
track 5:- Jarre drum sound, Mini nova using a saw at incredibly low pitch and then HPF frequency gaffing until I got there.
track 6:- bridge strings, Mini nova, 3 saws with the attack slackened off a lot, took 2 filters running in series to get the airy sound
tracks 7:- Strings, MiniNova, there's no phaser effect so I had to stack saws and slightly detune, you can hear the detune in the track, i don't like it but i was in a hurry.
tracks 8:- Chorus lead was a sync patch i found on the mini nova, not much manipulation needed, again in a hurry
track 9+10:- white noise 1 on slow lfo sweep on mini nova, white noise 2 was the system 1 with a tight attack and slowish decay throughout the filter EG .
That's about it."

"Multi-FX Unit. Made in Japan.

Great Sounds. Very crisp and clear.
It's got the lot: A bunch of reverbs and distortions, gates, flangers, phaser, chorus, delays etc.

Has 30 presets, and room for 60 more presets to be programmed in. Dead simple to use.

The unit has 2x extra switches added to boost and enhance the on-board modulation (i.e. flangers, phaser, chorus). These switches are 2x directional so there are actually 4x settings."
