All Connected #7 & #8 Announced

"2 new dates are announced in the Al Connected series at Ancienne Belgique, Huis23, Brussels.

The series involves concerts, films, readings and instrument presentations with and about artists who play with the language of ‘voltage control’, who use the ‘modular’ as creative thought process and test musical limits with it, artists who work in the spirit of San Francisco Tape Music Centre.

On February 8 we’ll have Jenny Gräf Sheppard who’ll play a live set on, and provide explanation about, her Ciat-Lonbarde instrument. Peter Beyls will let us hear a number of old tape pieces and explain his work. And to make the evening complete, we'll be screening a number of short films by Lilian Schwartz, one of the pioneers of video- and computer art.

All info here.

On March 1 we focus upon 3 unique synths that have helped to define the history of electronic music.
Thomas Lehn play an improvised set on his EMS Synthi AKS, Kraus comes with his homemade Serge Modulaire Synth and Guy Drieghe will play a live set on 3 Buchla Music Easels.

"3VCOs: VCO1 and 2 have saw, pulse, triangle and sine waveforms and the pulse width can be voltage controlled by external CVs. A low frequency noise with level control is available as well. VCO 1 can hard sync VCO2. VCO3 can be used as a modulation oscillator and can be disconnected from the master CV. Modulation targets are filter cutoff frequency and/or pitch of VCOs1and2. All VCOs have individual outputs, coarse and fine frequency controls, separate CV inputs for controlling frequency and pre-filter level controls.

The filter is a Moog 24dB lowpass filter. It´s input is a mixture of all three VCOs and noise. The cutoff frequency can be controlled by the first envelope generator as well as by an external CV. The filtertracking is switchable between off / half / full (0%, 1V/oct and 1.5V/oct).

The envelopes are ADSRs with a switchable release parameter thats time is depending on the decay parameter, just like the Minimoog. The filter envelope can be also used to control VCO2´s pitch what sounds great when VCO2 is synchronised. Furthermore you can invert this envelope´s characteristic. The second envelope modulates the VCA. If an external CV is patched to the VCA the internal modulation is broken up. A momentary button allows for manual triggering of the envelopes"
