Melodizer - Random Melody Generator

Published on Mar 21, 2018 Damien Quartz

"An audio/visual demo of Melodizer, an analog sequencer inspired audio app and plugin that randomly generates melodies.

Melodizer will be available for free at https://damikyu.itch.io/melodizer"

"Melodizer works like an analog sequencer where each step in the sequence is controlled by a column of knobs. However, rather than having a Pitch and Gate knob for each step, Melodizer's main knob is Probability. At each step you can control the probability that it will play a note when that step is activated. The actual pitch played will depend on the chosen Key, Scale, Octave, and Range. At each step you can also control how the note is panned, set the velocity, and shape the amplitude envelope of the note using ADSR knobs (attack, decay, sustain, release).

Melodizer will play notes using a built-in oscillator and effects, but also sends MIDI note messages so that you can use it to drive any soft-synth you already own. Any MIDI notes received by Melodizer will be used to change the Key and Octave or, in the case of the Fingered Scale, will be used as the pool of notes to choose from."

Strange Envelopes: Basic Enveloping and Pseudo Echo

Published on Mar 21, 2018 MAKEN0ISE

"Allen Strange wrote the book on modular synthesizers in the 1970s. Electronic Music: Systems, Techniques, and Controls. Unfortunately since the expanded 1982 edition, it has never been reprinted, and in today’s landscape where more people have access to modular synths than ever before, very few have access to the knowledge contained within. This video series will explore patches both basic and advanced from Strange’s text. Even the simplest patches here yield kernels of knowledge that can be expanded upon in infinite ways. I have been heavily influenced by Strange since long before I became a modular synth educator. Please share this knowledge far and wide.

The first video in the series covers one basic and one slightly less basic patch using envelopes."

Also see LYRA-8 as an FX processor (SOMA laboratory) (LYRA-8 with external IN only is the equivalent of LYRA8-FX)

"LYRA8-FX is an FX processor that can give you a significant part of the mysterious LYRA-8 sound.
LYRA8-FX consists of the FX section from the LYRA-8, expanded with CV controls and packed into a Eurorack module.
It contains a double modulated lo-fi delay with cross-feedback and the unique possibility of self-modulation, where the delay output signal modulates its own sample rate. Also, it packs a parallel distortion with CV control of the drive. The distortion is after the delay.
It’s much more than a delay – you can get a simple reverb, comb filter, chorus and much more cool FXs which are hard to describe.

Elektron Digitone - Garden Ambience (plus bonus dog footage)

Published on Mar 21, 2018 0F.digital

"It was a nice day today, so I decided to take my setup outside and record a video in the front garden of our house. I was aiming to make this video a lot longer (~2 hours), but the sun started warming up my gear, and my GoPro battery ran out, so I edited together what I had. There are two main "pieces" in this video; the second part starts at around 20:40.

100% Digitone; lightly mastered and edited for clarity. KMI QuNexus for live note input and jamming.

In this video I am drinking a South West Sour by Colonial Brewing Co., Margaret River. Not sponsored, I just like it and thought I'd mention it.

Not intended for your full attention (ie. feel free to put it on in the background!), but I've included some footage of the garden and our dogs as bonus material if you keep watching :D

Garden design by my partner Erin.

If you like this and would like to download the audio, it is available at my Bandcamp page:
