Hidden Sub Phatty [Episode 49]

Published on Apr 9, 2018 CatSynth TV

"We explore some of the hidden features of Moog's Sub Phatty synthesizer, including filter selection (select 1- to 4-pole filters) and Oscillator 2 Beat Frequencies.

These and other features can be accessed via Page 2 on the instrument panel, or using the handle Editor/Librarian software from Moog, available for both macOS and Windows.

For more information, visit http://www.moogmusic.com

All sound samples in the video were made using the Sub Phatty except for a bit of electronic piano on the closing music (done with a Nord Stage EX).

Everything Ends Here (Alessandro Cortini) // Eurorack, Rings, Mangrove, Bermuda, Plaits, Hermod

Published on Apr 9, 2018 Lost For Words

"I love the video of Alessandro Cortini, who wrote this track, and Don Buchla (modular father) playing this live. See link below. A simple 3 part melody loop with great feeling. I hope I did it a little justice.

In my take on the piece, played on a Keystep and recorded and sequenced by Hermod, Rings goes to ZVEX Instant LoFi Junky. Mangrove and Bermuda play the other two pieces. I use the Erica Polivoks filter and the Ripples filter to bring in distortion with a careful resonance/cutoff balance. Mangrove goes to Ripples then to Pico DSP for additional distortion and crunchiness.

Some sound effects from Plaits are bounced around in the Tapographic Delay.

Recorded to cassette. Mastered with Ozone etc. in Reaper.

"Modulating filter and its modulators to create rhythmic patterns.

Triangle Wave out of Z3000 oscillator into Z2040 filter. Filter Modulations: frequency is modulated by Z3000 which is modulated by another Z3000, resonance is modulated by Z4000 envelope, gain is modulated by MATH.

Towards the end a new FDN (feedback delay network) algorithm for Z-DSP is added to the sound."

"Great sounding antique board (pre-1980s) with a killer filter and some unusual gnarly effects via its flexible modulation capabilities. Oscillator sync, sample and hold, audio rate frequency modulation of both the filter and oscillators, duophonic mode and did I mention the filter? Yeah, it’s pretty sick. Screams like a banshee..."

The dragonfly is a nice touch.

"9U / 60HP Solid hard maple or walnut Eurorack modular synth case. This is my Standard Line of cases but other than wood selection, there is nothing standard about them. Hand dovetailed, black cherry base slightly raised to reveal a sexy shadow line, spalted maple back, hand profiled / recessed front to frame your modules. This is one of the finest cases made, not a cookie cutter CNC'd plywood box.

The case will have vector rails installed before shipment with a threaded insert or as many sliding nuts as you need. This case also includes a custom switching PSU with 2 distribution boards. If you'd like a Tip-Top studio bus, I can get you one at a significantly reduced price as part of this package. If you do not want a PSU included, I'll take $50 off the final price.

Free Shipping anywhere in the Lower 48

If you're local to the San Francisco Bay Area and can do a pick-up, I'll take another $50 off the price."
