Mini Jam with Vessek prototype (III) for VCV Rack

Published on Nov 18, 2017 Leonardo Laguna Ruiz

"This is a short jam I recorded when testing Vessek (the yet unreleased Vult oscillator). You can read more about it here https://modlfo.github.io/VultModules/..."

"Vessek started modeling the basic circuit of an analog saw wave oscillator. Most of the parameters were initially obtained from my Volca Bass. I got a pretty good matching of the sound that I bet it would pass a blind test. Later in the development, samples of the Mother32, MFB Synth II and 0-Coast were sent to me by members of the VCV Rack community.

From the samples I’m able of extracting characteristics of the waves that help me fit my greybox model. Then I turned the model into something more efficient that still produces a very good analog sound. The new models allow me adding many more features that are not available in the original circuits.

The current model is a blend of the above mentioned oscillators with some added tweaks to give Vessek it’s own personality."

Percussa SSP Update: PCB Layout Complete and Next Steps

An update via Percussa's SSP Kickstarter campaign:

"Hi All,

Since the last update I wrote on the PCB Layout, I've been working non stop (7 days a week!) on finalizing the layout and getting it ready for production.

A lot of time was spent on cleaning up the traces on the PCB, optimizing the placement of components, adjusting polygons, length matching traces, fixing small details in footprints, and then of course going through a really long list of design rule errors and fixing them.

In particular the length matching of the multiple data busses on the PCB took a long time, as I had to find physical space on the PCB for all the matching (non trivial if there are already a lot of traces).


Final PCB Layout of the SSP (3 layers shown)

I also had to create a new CAM Job to export gerber files for this 6 layer design, and I had to import the final design into my 3D modeling software as well to do one last check on the placement of all the mechanical components.

Finally I exported the gerber files and did a quick review to make sure they look good and sent them off for quotation and technical review to a few PCB manufacturers and the assembly house we work with.


Bottom Layer BGA closeup

So what's next? :-) I will be working on finalizing the BOM and fine tuning component values this coming week, while we wait for PCBs to arrive. I'll also be putting together a component kit for our assembly house who is going to do the SMT assembly for the boards. We'll initially be doing a small run, maybe 10 boards, and then start testing and debugging them. We'll keep you posted about our progress as always.

Now it's time to get some sleep! Until next week,

Bert & Celine"

"The Vb.Stretch module (thanks to Volker Böhm), is the super stretching tool you need to transform any sound into a wonderful pad/drone. In this short example an electronic track is turned into a space drone."

"Behringer DeepMind 6 LFO & Filter FUN! 2017
Synthesizer Demo by Rik Marston
**Watch in HD!** **Turn it UP!!**

Here is the Behringer DeepMind 6 demonstrating
the LFO 1, LFO 2 & the FILTER in action.
The sound is called "5th Pad RD"" but has more like
a MOOGY / Kraftwerk "Space Lab" LEAD feel....
I LOVE 5ths... always get me thinking VINTAGE!!!
Anyway this is more of an EXPLORATION for those
who are looking to see & hear the LFO 1 & LFO 2
sections & Filter in action. It's SOOOOO JUNO!!!!!
(And a wee bit more!) I LOVE THE DM6!!!!!
Great value for you money!!

Recorded DRY into Ableton LIVE

Thank you for watching!!!!"
