Modular Synth Jam - The Great Projection

Published on Nov 17, 2014 Iteration and Discord

"This patch was largely inspired by the bucket brigade delay made by doepfer. It never clicked in my head where the name bucket brigade delay came from until I read the instruction manual, then it was clear and furthered my enjoyment of bbd style delay.

I guess its the same concept as a line of people passing water down the line, bucket to bucket. As is the case with this eurorack modular synth patch. Although the delay buckets do not carry water, they do pass along waves created by the benjolin.

The starting point the epoch modular benjolin. The benjolin is then patched into the manhattan analog vca. I'm using the make noise maths on self cycle to generate an envelope to keep the benjolin in check. That envelope is fed into the manhattan analog vca. The output of the vca goes into the doepfer bbd a-188-1 with 4096 stages. The mix output of the doepfer is fed into the cwejman mm6 to filter out some of the ultra high pitch oscillator in the doepfer bbd. I use the make noise erbe verb as an effects send on my analog mixer (off camera). I am doing live manipulation of the modcan quad lfo to alter the cv on the dopfer, cwejman and erbe verb.

I obviously like to make somewhat random noises.

Thanks for watching and please consider subscribing to this channel for more synthesizer videos. The iteration and discord channel is dedicated to sound synthesis and my main area of interest is modular synths."

Sounds Like Australia on the Fairlight

Published on Nov 17, 2014 NFSA Films

"From the Film Australia Collection. Made by Film Australia 1987. Directed by Jamie Robertson. Kevin Peek, composer and guitarist with Sky, teams up with Mars Lasar, composer and ‘Fairlight’ whiz, to take an unusual and experimental voyage of discovery into the untapped potential of the Australian continent. With cinematography by Jim Frazier, this beautifully crafted film interweaves the sounds of nature and song recordings of rare Australian birds—the Victoria’s Riflebird, Lyrebird and Emu among others—with synthesized music that celebrates the Australian landscape and its wildlife. Superbly photographed, Sounds Like Australia breaks new ground in bringing music and the natural world together. Narrated by Robyn Williams. Developed by Peter Vogel and Kim Ryrie in 1979 the Fairlight CMI went on to be a dominant device in late 70s and early 80s music and film production. It was used by such artists as Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Elton John and Jean Michel Jarre."

Octave Plateau Voyetra 8 w/Keyboard!!! REV 3

via this auction

"This particular Voyetra 8 [with VPK-5 Keyboard] has been lovingly cared for always by the guys over at TheAnalogLabNyc. There are only a handful of people who really know this unit inside out and if you do your due diligence you will find out that Jeff is one of them. This unit is a Rev. 3 model with VCO green cards, the 2 VCF cards are the tan cards, along with the original xlr for midi outs. It also has the coveted teardrop original knobs. The wear and tear on it is whats normal for a unit of this age....especially since it was all white. No way this thing gets through 30 years without the white paint getting dingy...rack rash and whatever else age has done to it. So please don't be ridiculous with your expectations."

"The MW-01 is a distortion filter device.

It uses the same VCF model as from the EDP Wasp Synth, but ads tweaks and modifications to really bring out the noise!

Built into a robust folded aluminum case with a chunky layout, an intuitive design, and an LED rate indicator.

It is an excellent choice for live performance as well as experimentation in the studio.

The MW-01 Wasp Filter is a diverse filter capable of adding grit and punch to drums, ambient sweeps, filter wobble, and plain crazy noise."
