These Might Be The Droids You're Looking For

Published on Apr 29, 2019 Intellijel

"Need some sound effects? Planar's gestural panning and CV control are very powerful when combined. In this case Planar is mixing modulation sources from Atlantis while also controlling the frequency of the modulation oscillator and filter cutoff. This sort of thing is a fun way to generate sample fodder."

FRACT Sound Check: Bass Drips

Published on Apr 29, 2019 PHOSFIEND SYSTEMS

"Some old unearthed test footage from 2013 showcasing some of the reactive audio systems peppered throughout the world of FRACT.

These columns of liquid bass energy become an iconic aspect of the Bass area design. Their animation is driven by the audio, with their size and undulation driver by amplitude, filter cutoff, and signal strength"

Electroplankton Samplepack (free download)

Spotted this one on discchord. Electroplankton was a musical game for the Nintendo DS.

"Download it for free from:

Fellow artist J46+2 asked me if I wanted to help him create a samplepack from Electroplankton sounds, the Nintendo DS music making "game" from 2005. And of course I wanted! So here we assembled 40+ WAV Samples, Loops and One Shots for you to grab and use anywhere.

Thanks again to "J46+2" (https://www.instagram.com/4orty6ixand...) and his label at bigpharmaeuropa.bandcamp.com for assembling and mastering our first pack!"

nonlinearcircuits Bi-di Choppers

"Dual delta modulators that can be used as 2 into 1 or 1 into 2 CV controlled switches. The signals passing thru control the switching.....things can get out of hand."

nonlinearcircuits 1/n - 1 divided by n

Published on Apr 29, 2019 cirtcele

"1/n - can be patch-programmed to divide by 3-9, or match if you add another module. The other outputs will be at different phases to the 1/n out. Or use it to process audio. Jam and preset inputs let you create absolute mayhem."
