Patch Notes: Hélène Vogelsinger

video by FACTmagazine
"As part of the practice behind Hélène Vogelsinger‘s modular synth compositions, the French singer and sound designer explores abandoned places and connects with their energies to create immersive and suspended moments. “I love the fact that they have layers of stories and histories, with different occupants, often crossing times, and always full of beautiful and melancholic poetry,” she says.

Prior to this episode of Patch Notes, Vogelsinger went on a 800km trip to visit an abandoned cloister, where she took pictures, videos and recorded soundscapes. She then came back to her studio and started to create the musical foundations based on what she experienced during that day. “I always compose my main sequences and record the vocals and instruments upstream,” she says. “It is the first phase of creation.”

A few weeks later, Vogelsinger returned to record the finished piece, but the building wasn’t accessible. But on her way back home, in the south of France, she came across an abandoned castle, “an improbable apparition”, in the middle of an industrial zone. “With Chalisk, who films all my sessions, we were amazed and shocked at the same time,” she says. “We were amazed by this place’s aura and energy and shocked by the way it has been ransacked.”

Although the piece wasn’t recorded for the space, the castle’s own history (the family who lived there helped refugees who fled war) and aura made it suitable for the session.

“The installation and the recording session are always a process within the process, which takes a few hours. Technically it requires a good organisation: three modular cases and hundred of cables, a generator, a camera, lights and again so many cables,” she says. “It is something really intense, especially in those types of abandoned places, where you have to avoid a lot of obstacles.”

Vogelsinger’s latest album, Contemplation, is available now on Modularfield: https://helenevogelsinger.bandcamp.co...

Ambient Dreams 002 [Roland Jupiter 8, Valhalla Shimmer]

Star Diver

"A continuation of the series created to bring you closer to the experience of polyphonic electronic music experimentation, late at night with the lights down low. The world is asleep and all that exists is the mind & body connecting to the music through the interface of the synthesizer, channelling information from the beyond. Let your eyes relax and blur to taste, breathe slowly, and just listen if you are so inclined. I hope you enjoy."

HW Sequencer Kawai Q80ex Midi Clock sync file

ElektroNoiser

"At the request of Mark Pigott I have created this video in which the Q80ex plays a blank track to send Midi Clock to the blofeld.
Midi Ox recognizes the departure, continue and return to the beginning.
I also attach the snapshot that MidiOx has created.
Hope this can help anyone who wants to sync their blofeld via midi clock.
As additional information, I usually start the Q80 at least one bar before starting the Blofeld, otherwise, Blofeld may stumble because in "Auto" mode, by not receiving a midi clock, Blofeld will continue your own internal clock.

A SYNTRX Performance (4k version)

'::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND STEREO EFFECTS, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::

As I was exploring the capabilities of the Erica Synths SYNTRX, I came up with a patch on it, and a sequence on the Make Noise 0-CTRL, that vaguely reminded me of something with that "Boards of Canada" flavor... so I had to capture it on video.

Erica Syntrx vs EMS VSC3 The Putney (Part Two)

Allinaire

"Part 2 of the Comparison demos between the Erica Synths Syntrx and the EMS Synthi models (Synthi AKS and VCS3 - The Putney).
The video highlights some obvious differences between the two including the pin Matrix and controls. There is a simple square wave, pulse width, filter and reverb test then we get into some experimental 'Noisy' patches to compare the sound of the two. This is not a musical comparison but aims to compare Sound and Timbre of the two synths based on a few patches.
Decent headphones or speakers are recommended.
Part 1 looked at a comparison with the Synthi AKS - you can watch that here: [posted here]

Erica Synths DB-01 quick tip: Long steps

Richard DeHove

"The DB-01, good as it is, doesn't have sustain. But there are ways to achieve long sustained notes, as well as mixtures of long and short envelopes in a single pattern.

0:13 Gate length
0:35 Using gates for sustain
0:55 The LFO as an envelope
