"Triglav Modular has been kind enought to send me on of their brand new '208 Timbre' module to try out, so I can make some demo videos for you all.
Here is my very first patch with it. It does sound damn good!"
"The 208 Timbre is a faithful recreation of the wavefolder from the later version of the Stored Program Sound Source Model 208.
Two additional trimmers were added to enable calibrating input and output levels to match any Eurorack oscillator."
"TwinVCFilter is a dual state variable filter featuring two identical filter sections, each with 12 dB/octave low- and high-pass mode, as well as 6 dB/octave bandpass mode. Both filter sections can be linked and combined in serial and parallel mode. The twinVCFilter can be extended using the tVCF-Extension module."
Kaivo is a software instrument combining two powerful synthesis techniques (physical modeling and granular synthesis) in an easy-to-use semi-modular package. It’s laid out a bit like an acoustic instrument; the GRANULATOR module acts like the player’s touch, exciting one or more tuned objects (here, the RESONATOR module, based on physical models of resonant objects) that come together in a central resonating body (the BODY module, also physics-based).
"Pendulate is a free virtual instrument from Newfangled audio based that blends and oscillator based on the chaotic physics of a double pendulum with a Buchla-style wavefolder and low-pass gate from 'west coast synthesis'.

'Pendulate is a chaotic monosynth that uses a brand new double-pendulum-oscillator to create previously unheard sounds - biting basses, searing leads, and gritty textures. It can smoothly fade from a sine wave to total chaos, with an expanse of territory to explore in between.'

"Bored of the same old synth sounds? Newfangled Audio's Pendulate is refreshingly different. Pendulate is a chaotic monosynth that uses a brand new double-pendulum-oscillator to create previously unheard sounds - biting basses, searing leads, and gritty textures. It can smoothly fade from a sine wave to total chaos, with an expanse of territory to explore in between.
CREATE THE CHAOS
Pendulate’s chaotic oscillator is based on the physics of a double pendulum. What initially looks like randomness contains underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization. When designing the Pendulate oscillator we took great care to bring out these underlying patterns to create something both chaotic and musical.
"This track comes from overusing and abusing the Probability feature of the Novation Circuit Tracks. Almost every instrument and every pattern uses it heavily, alongside the micro step feature for some buzzes, rolls & ratcheting. The soundest is my Toybox collection. Made from sampling toy keyboards. It was recorded into the Zoom L-12 Livetrack and then exported into Logic for some mixing."
"Every time I go to start up a new jam, I can't help but grab the Novation Circuit Tracks. This time, I'm pairing it with the Akai Timbre Wolf. I think it compliments the digital sounding Circuit Tracks perfectly! Midi track 2 from the Tracks is sequencing the Timbre Wolf. I could have just synced up the Sequencer from the Timbre Wolf, but having all those instruments in one spot makes jamming so much more fluid. I recorded the Circuit Tracks and the Timbre Wolf separately using the Zoom L-12 Livetrack and imported those into Logic for mixing and processing with Compressors and EQ. I'm using a different style of compressing than normal, so tell me what you think."

"With this setup, I have the Drums and Bass Synth of the Akai Rhythm Wolf going into the Korg TP-2 Tube Preamp & Compressor. The Drum output of the TP-2 is routed into the Zoom L-12 Livetrack for recording,. But the Synth Bass output gets processed by the Moog Moogerfooger MuRF, using the static sequence mode. Then to the L-12 Livetrack for recording. All of this is then uploaded into Logic for mixing."
