013-The Dreadbox Typhon: More Functions and Modulating Effects


AutomaticGainsay

"Here is a roundup of several not-yet-covered functions, and a basic exploration of modulating effect parameters.

The theme for this demonstration was recorded by multitracking the Dreadbox Typhon over drum patterns fashioned from GarageBand loops."

Curves Filter Bank -Flame Instruments/Primary Oscillator ,ModTools,Micro Sequence-Pittsburgh Modular


Dziam Bass

"Today I have a small demo of the Curves 12 Band Filter Bank & seqencer from Flame instruments and modules like Lifeforms Primary Oscillator, Lifeforms Micro Sequence and Lifeforms Mod tools from Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers .😀

For this I used Time Wizard from Shakmat Modular , X-4 from Flame as VCA and Dual LFO from nakedboards .
As a delay I added the guitar effect Red Repeat from Carl Martin .

The whole voice is basically from Pittsburgh ,so Sine wave and Timbre out added to INA and INB in ​​Mod tools.
it was used as a mixer 😀, filter sound and fun with LFO when in the Curves filter for a given band I added LFO , and various gates from Time Wizard module , so the sound is moving all the time,

In curves I only used the ODD input and ODD output but you can also use EVEN or ALL and each band its own VCA and also the Audio OUT.🔥😍

it's best to watch the video yourself and take a look at the pages of these modules and check out the cool ECHO modeled on the Vintage sound from the 1950s. 🔥🔥👌

for me, these are great modules and a nice delay effect that I often use in new music recently
All in Rack Brute 6U from Arturia ."

Elektron Analog OS Upgrades: Step Recording


Elektron

"Step Recording comes to the Analogs! Fresh from its splashdown on the Digis, the machines can now input notes into the sequencer step by step. For Analog Rytm users, you can even input multiple tracks simultaneously. On Analog Four, things stay tasty allowing you to input chords per step. Flex the feature’s power to the max by controlling other gear using Midi, CV, and Gate."

Ritual Electronics Anima dual VCO - waves sound overview with Altar Filter


Dziam Bass

"Hello All.
today I have a small waves overview of Anima dual VCO from Ritual Electronics .

I reviewed some waves and pitch in the video so that you could see the power of this oscillator, in the second part I added a small sequence and also the Altar filter from Ritual .🔥🔥👌

Anima is Dual voltage controlled segments generator. AD / ASR envelope, LFO, Digital Oscillator and more.
Anima draws its roots in the “west coast” analog function generators and updates them in the digital realm. This take allows for extremely precise 1V / Oct tracking (10+ octaves) when in cycling mode, and for the control of the rising and falling segments (aka attack and decay) curves without affecting timing + a few more tricks.

The 1V / Oct input turns Anima into a very capable digital dual oscillator - when in cycle mode - with two types of frequency modulation and voltage controlled waveform crossfading. Cross patching is highly recommended for harsh mayhem synthesis!

The Curve parameter goes well beyond the usual Lin / Log control. It morphs smoothly between several curvatures (including the classic log, lin and exp) without affecting the rising and falling times.

For maximum versatility each channel of Anima has an output polarity switch, making it 0 to + 8V in unipolar mode or -5 to 5V in bipolar mode, suitable for audio or bipolar CV generation.

Altar is a voltage controlled 3-pole, 18dB / octave state variable filter.

Altar The configuration of the filter can be smoothly crossfaded from BP to LP to HP. This unusual filter type arrangement brings out very nice harmonics and nuances. It is really suited to CV control. The CV input has an attenuverter. Resonance is under voltage control with attenuverter as well allowing for great timbre modulations. It is particularly useful to recreate accent patterns à la 303. There is a gain at Altar input to beef up your signal which then distort the filter core. The filter tracks 1V / oct for 4-5 octaves and can turn into a very sweet sine oscillator

Thanks for watching and have a nice day!
Cheers."

Gorilla on a Synth


This one is in via Phil A

"Couldn’t resist before sending the ape off as a birthday present. As you can probably see it’s perched on an MS2000B (black-blue instead of the steel-blue of MS2k, + vocoder mic jack and some extra sounds), which is above a Polaris II (which as far as I can tell is functionally the same as the original Polaris other than having menus & shortcuts silkscreened in the back right corner, and originally coming with a 100VAC power supply for use in Japan)."

YAMAHA DX7 Digital Synthesizer 1983 + JAHN SPX 1.6 Expansion | HD DEMO


AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2020 by AnalogAudio1

Demo of the YAMAHA DX7 digital synthesizer (frequency modulation synthesis) from 1983. I played it along with a Lexicon MPX 500 (reverb).

This DX7 has the JAHN SPX 1.6 installed. This is a great expansion from Germany, which was available in the eighties. It adds some very cool features, such as "double" mode (2 voices per key/8 voice polyphonic) and "quadro" mode (4 voices per key/4 voice polyphonic), which makes the sound really fat. These voices can be detuned like on analog synths, to make fat sounds possible. It also expands the RAM memory to 128 (4 internal banks). The MIDI OUT channel can be set from 1 to 16 (not only MIDI IN).

I bought the new backlit display from Ebay. A DX7 expanded this way sounds excellent! The DX7 MK1 is my favorite DX7 version, I prefer it over the newer DX7II, because it has the better basic sound, is simpler to use, it's better built, and has a better MIDI timing. And you have a real classic, which is heard on tons of eighties hits."
