Addstation meets Apple M1

virsyn

"Addstation designed for iPhone/iPad runs on a MacBook Air with Apple Silicon.
Demonstrating the new preset randomiser for generating organic variations of sounds."

T6 - Roland Drumatix TR-06 / TB-03 / Volca FM / Volca Nubass

Micro Banshee

"TR-06 Drum Machine, along with the TB-03 and the Volca Nubass, which is likely to be the last time I use it [Nubass], this is the second unit and like the first it’s reluctant to stay in tune!

As always, the track is played 'live' in one take - with no DAW, editing or post production.

Used:
Korg Volca FM
Korg Volca FM
Korg Volca Nubass
Roland TB-03
Roland TR-06"

Interesting. The VCA almost behaves like a lowpass filter. The upper harmonics vs. all harmonics are reduced as you lower the slider.

Let's Play with Agonizer

Tim Webb

Kai Aras (Numerical Audio) worked with @Jakob Haq to create the Bass Synth of Jakob's dreams. Those dreams were fueled by a love of Dub... which is not something I share. I can dig it, but I can't produce it. I take Agonizer's sound sculpting tools in an entirely different direction in this Let's Play!

Analog Memories | 0-Coast + 0-Ctrl + Doepfer A151 sequential switch

Cinematic Laboratory

"Someone was wondering if it would be useful to have two 0-Ctrl units, looking for an excuse to get another one. He was wondering if it would be possible to extend the 8 step sequence to 16. Since I do not have two 0-ctrl's lying around, I used my Brains/PressurePoints combo (the 0-Pressure) to do this experiment. Unfortunately I could not find a way to make one stop and the other one continue. I am not sure it can be done.

However, if you're looking to extend your sequence, getting a 'sequential switch' would be a lot more helpful. The Doepfer A151 can switch between four input signals when it receives a gate, which makes it a perfect companion for your 0-ctrl. I used it to extend the sequence from 8 to 16. Adding the 0-Pressure extended it to 32 and ultimately to 128. But with so many untuned notes, you should make a Krell patch or use a quantizer..."
