Strange Multiplication: Sequence Contraction and Sequence Sequencing

Published on Mar 28, 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.

This video shows the use of a VCA for things other than audio amplitude: automating the amplitude of a sequence ("sequence sequencing", and also automating the amplitude and frequency of a simultaneous pulse stream."

E-MU Emax SE - Additive Spectrum Interpolation Synthesis - PPG Wavetable - How to

Published on Mar 28, 2018 RetroSound

"(c) 2018 vintage synthesizer demo by RetroSound

Many ask me over the last years 'Marko please show us the Spectrum Interpolation Synthesis feature of your E-MU Emax SE.
How it works and how can I draw new waveforms? How works the Time Slice mode for program PPG like wavetables?'

Ok. Here we are with a How to video. The video shows the most important features of the SE upgrade.

+ Additive Synthesis
+ Draw Waveforms
+ Time Slice
+ Interpolation

The Digital Spectum Synthesis is perfect for programming DX like bell sounds or PPG like wavetable sounds.
All new waveforms can you use for new sounds like a Hybrid Synthesizer with digital oscillators and analog filter and amplifier.
Enjoy!"

Using The GAKKEN SX-150 MkII Synthesizer As Analog Filter | SYNTH ANATOMY

Published on Mar 28, 2018 SYNTH ANATOMY

"One of my souvenirs from my Toyko visit in 2017 was the GAKKEN SX-150, a small analog synthesizer. Beside the instrument feature, it's also possible to use this little instrument as an analog filter.
Here is a little tutorial how you can use it with an Teenage Engineering PO-32...

Befaco - Sampling Modulator Mini Demo

Published on Mar 28, 2018 DivKidVideo

"Here's a quick mini demo (see the link below for what and why it's a mini demo) of the Befaco Sampling Modulator. This one really took me by surprise as it's a trigger sequence, unique sample and hold, down sampler / sample rate reducer for audio or an oscillator ... and probably other things I didn't get chance to try out in my short time with it. Highly impressive, I feel like I *NEED*.a few of these."

See this post for details on the Befaco Sampling Modulator.
