nonlinearcircuits Digital Filter Simulator 1

Published on Jan 3, 2019 cirtcele

"Analogue circuit designed to simulate a digital filter....sort of. Starts slowly, jump to the 2nd half to get a real taste for it."

via nonlinearcircuits

"This module is based on ideas presented in a 1969 IEEE paper titled - Hybrid Implementation for Sampled-data controllers. The paper presents the canonical form of a generalised digital filter made using analogue elements.....yes this is an analogue circuit; all CMOS and op amps. I played around with various versions for a few years and, as usual, settled on the simplest and cheapest version.

Incoming audio signals (or CV if you want to use it as a pattern generator) are fed to a 4 bit A/D stage, these 4 bits then go thru a 4 stage delay (shift registers). Each delayed bit is re-united with its siblings via four D/A stages and the stepped signals are then fed back to the input via an attenuator/inverter stage and are fed to the summed output, again via an attenuator/inverter stage.

The circuit is controlled by the clock input that ticks over the shift registers. CV controlling the VCO that supplies the clock signal will in turn control the filter. The Range pot needs to be set to a suitable level, I like it when the peak LED is flickering. Range can also be controlled by CV which will allow you to shift from a 1 bit signal to a 4 bit or overdrive the crap out of it and lock everything up. It is interesting to supply clock signals that are multiples or divisions of the audio signal, but like all NLC modules, feel free to do whatever you like. As mentioned, supplied with a gate and a CV it will perform as a complex pattern generator as well.

I will get a demo up soon, but will promise this doesn't sound like a filter......it is very noisy and splatty.

Erica Synths Techno System Drum Sequencer Direction Control Demo

Published on Jan 3, 2019 Sounds From The Shed

"Had a bit of fun with this sequencer as I get to learn it. I put in a fairly simple pattern and sequenced the Fusebox then used the directional controls to change up and give variety to the pattern. Reverse, Ping-Pong, Random etc. Excuse my attempt at Acid, it's not something I do and was just a play about!!!!"

Waveform View & Edit (2.1) // Synthstrom Deluge Tutorial

Published on Jan 2, 2019 Ron Cavagnaro

"This Deluge firmware 2.1 tutorial illustrates the new waveform view, it's usefulness, and an extended Improvised demo at the end of the video. The new feature has lo-res anti-aliased views of the waveform of the sample we load. It can be zoomed and scrolled in order to place precise start, end, and loop points.

Vermona E2010 Graphic Equalizer - A Studio Secret from behind the Iron Curtain

Published on Jan 2, 2019 HAINBACH

"The not very well known Vermona E2010 has been a staple of my studio for years. Its a very moogy looking graphic equalizer built around an LC filterset, the likes of which you don't see anymore. It adds vibe to anything you run through it and allows for creative bending of any audio material. Here I show what it adds to synths, drums and a full mix."
