"The SK-1 has 4 voices and percussion. Each voice is made up from an audio signal and an envelope control signal, which are combined to give the end voice. This module allows you to switch on or off any of the 4 voice audio paths, any of the 4 envelope control signals and the percussion. The patch panel then lets you have for instance, voice 2 under the envelope control for voice 4. You can then patch the percussion audio into the envelope control for one of the voices, which gives sustain effects or patch it into the audio signal and it gates the percussion with the keys, so the percussion sounds only while a certain voice is active. You can even swap the audio and envelope control signals over, which gives a buzzing / click type noise when you press a key.
Audio Filters / Level This module modifies the filters where the envelope control signal and the audio signal are combined to make the end voice. The knob is in 2 stages where it controls the level of the audio signal, but keep turning it and it then affects the filter. The control will take the tone and ‘squash’ it so for instance the bass line in the demo song, rather than a contiuous note turns into a blip, or stacatto effect.
"Having some fun with an ancient vintage synth. All of these songs are played in their entirety in solo piano versions elsewhere on this channel. Thanks for putting up with my going on various tangents :D"
Looks like a Roland Jupiter-6 with custom wood side panels.
VCO 1 and 2 saws and VCO 1s sub are mixed Timo’s SSM2044 and them direct to output. I think I wrongly called that a Fonitronik Module, but it’s actually based on Foniks implementation.
Envelopes are provided by the VOID Modular Dual ADSR"
PLAYER is based on Tom Whitwell’s Radio Music open source project. REVERB is based on Tom Whitwell’s Spring Reverb MK2 open source project.
The module runs on -15V/0V/+15V and is tested in a Buchla 200e original cabinet. It comes ready to play with a few samples on a 16GB Sandisk Ultra microSDHC and a Belton BTDR-2H Digital Reverb Brick installed.
Included is: – SD card adapter. – Power cable.
Not included: – Mounting screws.
REVERB was tested with and calibrated for a Belton BTDR-2H Digital Reverb and an Accutronics 9EB2C1B Spring Reverb Tank. The brick is installed on the module. The spring reverb tank is optional and can be either connected plugged to the front or to the back of the module.
IMPORTANT: Please notice that the START POINT function is a bonus that still does not work 100% like it should. I’ll give my best to solve it in a future firmware update.

"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.
