first zoia euroburo ambient patch

video upload by Red Means Recording Ambient

"Pam's clocks, Chaos sequences and modulates, Rings and Castor and Pollux make sounds.

Euroburo is fed audio from Castor and Rings. It passes Castor through two channels of VCA (modulated by lfos) and filters (modulated by lfos). The lfos are modulated by another set of LFOs on random, sent through a slew limiter.

Rings is fed in and given a similar treatment, with dual vcas being modulated by two very slow LFOs.

The two Castor channels are fed into two panners, which are being modulated by another slow LFOS.

Those outputs are sent to reverbs and ping pong delays.

It's pretty."

Moog Model 15 Modular Synthesizer App Now Available as a VST

via Moog Music

"Introduced in 2016 as the first Moog modular synthesizer and synthesis educational tool created for iOS, the Moog Model 15 App continues to evolve.

The new VST wrapper plugin, available as a free download, allows users to integrate Model 15 and all of its features into DAWs like Ableton for expanded sound design potential and new opportunities for creative expression.

With this download and the macOS Big Sur compatibility update we released earlier this year, the Model 15 App can now be used as a standalone application, as an Audio Unit v3 and v2 plugin, as a VST3 plugin, or as an effect in your existing audio chain."

Making the PERFECT Studio Desk!

Part 1: The Tour video upload by LeoMakes

This one is in via supporting member, LeoMakes who had the following to say:

"I was disappointed at the ergonomics of my studio (using my beloved Eurorack system means I'm always out of the sweet spot) SO... I built a custom Eurorack desk that puts all my favorite modules right in front of me where I want them. It has 272 HPs of Eurorack (3U + 1U Intellijel) with power, slide-out keyboard tray, ideal speaker placement. It's even a sit/stand desk so I can make music how I want. It has taken 5 months to design/engineer/fabricate and I hope your viewers will find it interesting/inspiring. Maybe they'll even build their own variants of this, which would be amazing."

Video Description and Part 2 below:

"I just built the perfect studio desk (for me)! In this video, we go on a tour of my new desk and I talk about why I designed it like this and some of its cool features. Check out Part 2 for the actual desk build: [below]

BTW I talk about a lot of gear but I am not sponsored or endorsed by anyone. I also don't do Amazon affiliates or anything like that. If you're into Patreon and supporting channels like this, well, I'd love to have your support! https://www.patreon.com/leomakes"


Part 2: The Build video upload by LeoMakes

"In this video, I walk you through how I designed and built the pefect studio desk (for me!) We'll go over my requirements, the 3D design software, and how all the pieces come together."
