How to make a track without a computer on Circuit Rhythm with Trishes // Novation

video upload by NovationTV

"Multidisciplinary artist and activist TRISHES shows us how to make a track without a computer on our Circuit Rhythm.

TRISHES challenges the confines of art and constructs of the self by using music, visual art and spoken word to delve into our psyches. Her undeniably original songwriting, fleshed out by hip-hop beats and pop hooks, examines human struggle through an anthropological lens to prompt listeners on a journey of self-inquiry.

Can Plants Make Music? (Clatters Machines Garden Listener Demo)

video upload by Poorness Studios

"I found this really cool Eurorack module which is designed to interact with plants. The Garden Listener from Clatters Machines creates bioelectric gate, trigger, and CV (pitch) signals from any living organism. In this video, I test it out with a pothos plant.

Intro - 0:00
History & Overview - 0:17
Hooking up the Plant - 1:51
MIDI Test w/Volca - 2:33
CV Test w/Modular Synth - 3:26
Final Thoughts - 6:09

You can find out more about the Garden Listener here: https://clattersmachines.com/prodotto...

See the podcast I referenced during the video here: https://www.synthux.academy/blog/desi..."

"The Garden Listener is a random control messages generator from biometric signals. It detects conductivity variations on living beings’ surface and transforms them into MIDI notes, ranging from C-1 to C8, and CV signals (0 – 5V). Its behavior can be tamed through the one-knob menu from which you can choose and modify:

probes’ sensitivity (making it more or less sensitive to current variations);
scale (chromatic, major, minor, indian and arabic);
MIDI channel (from 1 up to 16);
LEDs’ brightness.
Conductivity variations are detected by the Probes Input and converted into MIDI notes in real time according to the Main menu settings. Each MIDI note exits through the MIDI output, allowing you to take advantage of the sound of either any synthesizer equipped with a MIDI port or any VST in your DAW, and gets converted into an analog signal.

Trigger and Gate are fired every time a new note is generated, their voltage output can be modified with the respective attenuator (0 – 5V).

All the MIDI notes are converted into variable voltages (0 – 5V) depending on their pitch and exit through the CV output (1V/oct).

The CV output behavior can be modified via the Octave Selector which acts as a “CV equalizer” from which you can choose to generate CV only if the respective MIDI note lies within a certain octave range.

For once, leave those LFOs alone, and let any living conductive being modulate your signals.

The module comes with 3.5mm white probes and a set of snap-on adhesive reusable electrode pads. A MIDI-TRS type A adapter (not included) is required for the MIDI output.

The module requires calibration for a proper 1V/oct output."

JMT Synth LD 2 - First Test After Modifications

video upload by John L Rice

"This video is all the JMT Synth model LD-2 plus some reverb from the Yamaha mixer. The LD-2 has 2 VCOs each with a sub oscillator, many LFOs, a noise source, a filter, and a delay effect.
More details here: https://www.jmtsynth.com/ld-2

People familiar with the LD-2 might notice that the Frequency and Volume pots/knobs have swapped positions, this is because the new 10 turn pots I installed were too large to fit in the proper position for VCO 1."

One of my favorite songs from the mid 80s

Mr. Mister - Broken Wings from the year 1985
Written by Richard Page, Steve George, John Lang

I used the Yamaha DX7 II FD for all synth sound parts
The bass sound is the famous BASS1 factory sound. Used in many songs in the mid 80s.
All other sounds are self-programmed by me.

Here can you find the full DX7 playlist with a lot single sound demos and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy."
