Philip Glass Riff Automaton
video upload by boxoftextures
"In which we create a Philip Glass Riff Automaton in order to be able to simply put our feet up and listen forever.
About a week ago I saw a random tweet of a YouTube video organ piece from Satyagraha, and for some reason it came to me that I could have the riff play and then alternate between two different versions of it. Well, it took me almost that whole week to get it working but I'm pretty happy with the results. I could see taking this and going much further with it—having more than two parts , for example, as well as adding harmonies, counterpoints, and bass drones—but for now this is a good proof of concept showing it's indeed possible to get it working. Had to figure out how to get all the logic flowing properly, and luckily Voltage Modular has a good selection of switching and logic modules available.
The video that got me started:

Espen Kraft Studio Tour 2022 | 80s Vintage Synthesizers and Gear
video upload by Espen Kraft
"My 2022 studio tour where I go through what I have in the studio. As I often have change things out and/or get stuff coming and going, not all things are set up in a permanent order. Some are not even hooked up unless I need it for a particular job.
At the time of shooting I was unaware that I could only use 5 cards in a video so I couldn't link to as many videos as I had hoped."

Tiptop Buchla Tip no 5
video upload by Todd Barton
"This is a mini-series on the basics of the new Buchla & Tiptop Audio modules. This episode looks at a couple of tricks used in Morton Subotnick's Silver Apples of the Moon. I'm really enjoying these modules and Tiptop has enthusiastically embraced the Buchla paradigm. The oscillators are sounding great and squarely in the Buchla ballpark.

Moog Sub37/Subsequent 37: 64 Arp Presets/Patches. Sound Demo
video upload by Anton Anru
"'Analog Groove' is a collection of 64 Arp Patches for Moog Subsequent 37 and Sub 37.
The bank of presets is universal, the Arps are suitable for all genres of electronic music, including Techno, House, Trance, Lounge, Downtempo, Funk, Disco, Pop, Acid, Hardcore, IDM, Drum'n'Bass, Breaks, Breakbeat, Trap, Electro, Ambient, Dubstep, EDM, Synth-Pop and others.
The patches cover a variety of Arp tones: mild and aggressive, deep and bright, simple and complex, soft and punchy, musical and experimental.
🎧 Get the soundset: https://bit.ly/3x756yg
All patches are very dynamic: they have synced modulations, and they are velocity-sensitive. You may hold a chord and add accents to the arpeggio with velocity.
ModWheel is set in all patches, it adds brightness or movement. In sum, Velocity and ModWheel are nice expressive tools that will make any performance lively.
And, of course, you should play with ADSR, Filter Parameters, Arp and LFO Divisions, Arp Direction and Range, to get the best experience of the arps.
You may turn Arp Mode off and get basses, leads, plucks, keys. In this case, it's better to turn KB RESET on in MOD 1 and 2 sections.
Patches' volume levels are set close to each other, you won't get sudden volume spikes or drops while switching the timbres.
