"Tackling the relatively simple Kassutronics VCO 3340 kit as supplied by Infinite Machinery. This video turned into a bit of a monster because during the process I ran into trouble testing out a new soldering iron, I had to do my first (and unexpected) bit of SMD soldering, and I had some technical issues. But it was all a fabulous learning experience.

"👉https://www.albaecstasy.ro/analog-fou...
100 #AMBIENT #PATCHES FOR #ANALOGFOUR / ANALOG KEYS mkI & mkII. The pack consists in 1 sysex file filled with atmospheric pads and keys, deep basses, weird sounds but yet playable.
Carefully crafted (it took me a lot to release this pack - revisiting the sounds every time I wanted to dump the sounds! lol), the patches from this video are using the internal FX of the Analog Keys, no EQ-ing."

Braids WTBL 1979 Dual Algorithmic Oscillator Buchla - Wavetable Synthesis

Published on Jul 16, 2019 The Galaxy Electric

"The objective for this video was to morph through the different transwaves of the wavetables of the WTBL algorithm in the 1979 Dual Algorithmic Oscillator. The original circuit was designed by Émilie Gillet of Mutable Instruments in the Braids Eurorack Module.

The patch consists of random voltage being sent from a BEMI Buchla Music Easel to the pitch cv input of the DAO. The same random voltage is being used to slightly manipulate the timing of the Pulser which is also controlling a lopass gate from a 292r in combo mode. The cv of the modulation oscillator of the Easel is being used to animate the wavetable sweep of this algorithm. The delay effect is coming from a 4ms Dual Looping Delay who's timing is being synced to the same meandering Pulser. Notice how the random voltage is a looped sequence. It sounds quite melodic thanks to the ability to quantize to semitones in the DAO."

Radioaktivnost nuclear stochastic MIDI sequencer

via giorgiosancristoforo.net

"Radioaktivnost is a one-of-a-kind MIDI sequencer for software and hardware synthesizers.

If you are interested like me, in randomness and science (especially nuclear), this little toy may give you many hours of fun.

Radioaktivnost is a 16 step sequencer clocked by radioactive decay.

You can use a real Geiger counter, or – maybe, while you wait yours from ebay – use the internal simulator.

Those who are familiar with analog step sequencers will feel quite at home with Radioaktivnost.

There are 16 steps (you can use 1 to 16 steps) and every step can trigger a note on (0 ~ 127).

You can set the sequence forward, backward, palindrome or random.

You can also listen to the geiger sound and watch the counter and take a measure the old school way:

Start the counter and a stopwatch at the same time and see how many counts you get in 60 seconds.

Price is 20€"
