Mutable Instruments Elements - Incidences/Resonances Patch

Mutable Instruments Elements - Incidences/Resonances Patch from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

"First look at the Mutable Instruments "Elements" Modal Synthesis Oscillator. This patch was inspired by Bernard Parmegiani Incidences / Résonances piece on | De Natura Sonorum | INA-GRM | 1978.

To imitate nature and acoustic instruments, modal synthesis breaks down the creation of sounds into two steps:

1. Synthesizing a noisy and/or percussive excitation signal, which represents the raw energy transferred to the instrument by the musician when (s)he strikes, bows or blows it.

2. Processing this excitation by a resonator modeling the vibrating structure itself - be it a string, tube or plate. Properties such as its size, tuning, shape and material can be simulated by adjusting the parameters of the resonator."

WTPA2 - Where's the Party At 2 Hackable 8-Bit DIY Sampler

via I Got Junctions On the Low Low

"Todd Bailey, after making his fans wait 4 years(!) finally released Where's-the-part-at 2.0 WTPA2 today. There's about 300 units in the initial run and they will go fast. Todd has made noise about a Euro-rack version in the future.

Its a hackable 8 bit sampler DIY kit. from the manual:

Overview:

WTPA2 (usually) stores samples as 8-bit, monophonic, uncompressed audio. When used for live sampling, it initially stores samples to RAM. WTPA2 has 512k of RAM. WTPA2's sampling rate is anywhere you tell it to be, usually somewhere from ~30kHz to ~8kHz (or less). This means that WTPA2 can sample anywhere from ~17 seconds to more than a minute of consecutive audio. WTPA2's maximum bit depth (8 bits) is not high by modern standards, but it isn't terrible either. It sounds great for a thing that sounds crusty. WTPA2 can also save and load samples from an optional micro-SD card interface. Each SD card can hold up to 512 samples. Samples can be converted to AIFFs and stored on a computer, and vice versa.

WTPA2 can also play Nintendo Entertainment System DPCM samples from a properly formatted micro-SD card.

WTPA2 has three independent playback channels: Bank 0, Bank 1, and the SD-card stream. Bank 0 and Bank 1 work out of RAM, and can freely manipulate samples in all kinds of ways. The SD card stream is pulled directly from the card, and plays samples in a vanilla way at a fixed sample rate. NOTE-- samples may be loaded and saved from RAM to the SD card. WTPA2 has two general styles of user interface. Front panel buttons and knobs (Caveman) and a MIDI input (Fancy 80's Disco Style). WTPA2 can also take a control voltage input for the master sample rate VCO, and can be interfaced to modular synthesizers (Fancy 2013 Disco Style)."
