Beast-Tek Transmuter Sync Demo

Beast-Tek

"Demo showing Transmuter generating clock and transport signals from ER-1 MIDI output.
The sequencer (controlling Plaits) stays in perfect sync with the ER-1 😈"

RetroLinear

"Redefining Epic one note at a time!"

via this auction

"Overall this unit is in exceptionally nice condition. This is a consignment piece, owned by one family since new, stored most of its life in the original factory packaging. There are very light marks here and there all visible in the pictures. This is about close to a new-old-stock unit you could have. Functions 100% and sounds amazing.

This synth has been painstakingly restored here at RetroLinear. A complete work report will be provided with the sale. Lots of electronic future-proofing, contacts, controls cleaned, fully calibrated- latest revision voice and system roms.

Includes:
• Original factory box
• Original sustain foot switch/pedal
• Original factory manual"

New Club of the Knobs C911A/M DUAL TRIGGER DELAY & C960E CHANNEL EXTENDER

"The module adds an additional channel to the C960 sequencer. This extension runs directly parallel to the C960 controller.

8 dials with a range of 2V or 4V, adjustable via the enlightened SCALE switch.

GATE SELECT: Selection either from the C960 or from the internal quantizer.

2 voltage outputs are available.

Direct analog or via internal quantizer in semitone steps over the 'SCALE' range."

"The C911A/M DUAL TRIGGER DELAY is designed to be used with 2 or more C911 Envelope Generators. It provides one or two time delays on an input voltage trigger signal (bound for the activation of an envelope voltage trigger). Three different modes of operation are available via the coupling mode switch.

OFF: Delays are activated independently through individual voltage trigger inputs.

PARALLEL: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates timing circuit on both simultaneously.

SERIES: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates top timing circuit, then triggers second upon activation of first."

Zlob Modular Diode Chaos modulation source (LMEE)

Learning Modular

"This simple, small, inexpensive module is a source of three smoothly varying semi-random control voltages plus a random trigger. This video gives an overview of its behavior.

The short version is:

• Higher Rate settings produce more Triggers over the same period of time, with a sudden increase to audio rate triggers at the clockwise extreme of the Rate control.
• The X output is the most active, providing a set of peaks like a “pinged” resonant filter at higher “Rate” settings. A train of these peaks starts with each Trigger output.
• The Y output is like a heavily slewed version of the X output, and is somewhat out of phase.
• The Z output acts like a bit like a slow attack/decay function generator, triggered by each Trigger output.
• As a result of the above, “Rate” works more like a “complexity” control, than the normal speed of an LFO.

This video, plus a second one showing how to use it as the main driver in a generative patch, are part of the Learning Modular Eurorack Expansion: Extended Edition course: https://courses.learningmodular.com/c...

Those two videos, plus a third on how to tame the changing voltage ranges of the Diode Chaos and additional text explanations, were shared with the +5v and above Learning Modular subscribers on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LearningModular"

iOS 14.2 Breaks Patch Base

via Coffee Shopped:

"Hi, I have an important update to users of Patch Base on iPad! The latest version of iOS (14.2) appears to have a bug in it that causes crashing when sending MIDI data. This is a bug in iOS itself, not Patch Base, but it means Patch Base crashes when using it at all on 14.2.

I'm currently trying to find a workaround for this bug, but it might not be possible soon. So, I recommend NOT updating to iOS 14.2 if you need Patch Base to work for now. Hopefully Apple will be publishing an update to iOS soon that addresses this bug. I will be monitoring that.

All previous versions of iOS should still work fine though!"

You might want to check your apps as well before updating.

Prophet 10 rev 4 Demo – [No FX + No Talking]

"Here I demo some presets on the new Sequential Prophet 10 rev 4 Synthesizer. This synth is a Prophet 5 rev 4 (which is a reissue of the original Prophet 5) but with another 5 voices! This means lots of polyphony and boy does it sound amazing!

In this video, I have captured audio through Ableton Live, but and no external FX used, and no processing has been done. I did level match in post-production some of the quieter patches but was only a volume bump in Adobe Premier. The Prophet 10 rev 4 is a polyphonic analog synth with a mono output and no onboard FX."
