How To Kick (a discussion of kick drum synthesis)

Published on Dec 23, 2019 Oscillator Sink

"Welcome to the first video in a series where we'll be talking about drum and percussion synthesis. Throughout the series the Volca Drum will be used for the examples, but the ideas discussed will happily translate to many other synths.

We're kicking things off (ha ha) with kick drums - the centre-piece of beat based electronic music. Starting with the classic 'all-in-one-oscillator' approach, we'll expand on that to look at how having separate voices for the 'thwack' and 'boom' can really help you tailor your sound."

New Torso Hardware Sequencer by Torso Electronics

Published on Sep 10, 2018 torso electronics

via Torso Electronics

"Create percussive polyrhythmic sequences or explore endless melodic variations. T-1 is an algorithmic MIDI sequencer which offers vast set of creative composition tools

About T-1

We set out to design a machine that can go beyond the limitations of a traditional sequencer, while maintaining a simple and user-friendly interface with no menu diving.
Focusing on fluid live performance and the possibility to modulate every parameter with random sequences.
‍
The T-1 brings a completely new methodology for sequencing and many new avenues for musical inspiration and creativity.
With 16 polyphonic tracks, 16 rhythmic and melodic parameters, random modulation features, and live performance tools, the T-1 brings new inspiring content for your music making.

Main features

Euclidian rhythms
The core of T-1 is based on the euclidian algorithm, which lets you generate and explore a vast variety of rhythmic patterns

Play together
Wirelessly connect to other devices with our integration of Ableton Link. This will make sure that T-1 is playing in time with your DAW and all Link supported apps

Randomize
We have added pseudo-random modulation to every parameter, for creating endless musical variations. The randomness can be locked into loops, giving you more control
‍Keypad display
The multicolor keypads is used as a display showing parameter values and the state of the device

Steady State Fate SSF Zero Point Oscillator ZPO // unique thru zero FM & AM + morphing and more!

Published on Dec 23, 2019 DivKidVideo

"Here we have the wonderful ZPO from SSF. It has a totally unique take on "thru zero" modulation that couples the frequency modulation with amplitude modulation. Enabling either the linear of exponential FM to go into the thru zero modulation also couples that modulation into the "zero point". The zero point offers level control in a bipolar fashion which can invert waves and provide ring modulation. Merging TZFM and TZAM alongside the other features such as sync, waveform morphing, 3 types of pulse width modulation, sub oscillators and some unique waveform outputs really elevates this as a powerful analogue oscillator.

Bodie

Published on Dec 23, 2019 CatSynth TV

"Experimental film with scenes from Bodie, California and original music.

Bodie is a former gold-mining town and State Historic Park in California’s Bodie Hills, near the Nevada border. Bodie became a boom town in 1876 after the discovery of a profitable line of gold; by 1879 it had a population of 5,000–7,000. The town went into decline in the subsequent decades and came to be described as a ghost town by 1915. The 19th-century ghost town still exists encompasses numerous original buildings in varying states of decay. It was officially was established as Bodie State Historic Park in 1962 and is registered as a California Historical Landmark. The films open to scenes of desolation in the town, only to reveal that it now again filled with people, now tourists instead of miners.
