In this video, the Prophet-5 is played and sends it´s MIDI notes via the MIDI Out to the Roland JD-990. You get a beautiful layering with a shimmering pad from the JD-990.
3. Nord Piano 5 || Sequential Prophet-5 || LAYERED
In this video, the Sequential Prophet-5 is adding some notes to a repetitive pattern on the Nord Piano 5.
Limited tweaking but very pleasant analog sound
of all instruments.
Unfortunatley as you can see was the sturdy
RITMOBOX damaged on transport due to back
packaging. The shaft of the volume pot was bent.
Fortunately the RITMOBOX is a solid beast with
its pots screwed to the surface. Otherwise the
pot would have broken out of the board. As a result
of the shock 4 multipurpose button caps fell off
their sockets. A hefty violent shaking is necessary that
they leave their positions."
"Continuing the build by adding the Voltage Controlled Amplifier and tying it in with the ADSR and GATE.
The Q108 and Q158 are both listed on the synthesizers.com website with specs etc."
"I've been working on the Allemande from J. S. Bach's French Suite No. 4 in E-flat, BWV 815, and was frustrated that I couldn't hear all those long, held notes. Rather than select one of its cheesy organ presets, I decided to connect the piano to my (smaller) Eurorack case. It worked well with all of the polyphonic algorithms on the Disting EX, but the Poly Wavetable gives you the most options for using keyboard velocity not just to control volume but also to shape the timbre - via filter cutoff, wavetable position, etc. I set the envelope times/levels/curves so that the held notes would remain audible, but in the background.
Here is how I connected the piano to the modular: USB Midi cable - DOREMIDI midi host - 5-pin MIDI cable - TRS adaptor cable - MIDIXO breakout, which connected to the rear of the Disting via 4-pin ribbon cable. If there's a more direct way to connect them, please let me know in the comments!

What does this do? This is a mini analog synthesizer that produces snare drum sounds. Inspiration was taken from the 5U Cor Synth DR02 module. Only the flow chart was studied and used to create this BLM product. VCV Rack was also used to simulate and test the building blocks.
Most of the circuits contained in this product are from other blue lantern module designs.
The goal of this module was to recreate some of the more exotic electronic snare sounds. Your not getting another Roland 'TR' module with the Gimme Some Snare Drum. All the building blocks contain full analog circuitry, like OTA chips, and Op-amps. No vintage transistor based (Bridge T Oscillator) circuits are used in this product.
The best description I can give you inquiring what the kind of snare drum sounds this module can produce is something comparable to: an Electribe Korg ER-1, Simmons Snare Drum, and the Mattel Synsonics.
"The E-MU Emax II and Sequential TOM drum machine making some 80s magic happening.
This video is a short edit from my longer TOM video where I also go through different cartridges with drum sounds. This is live midi sequenced while I play on top. Drum pattern is 'Eyes without a face'."
"This is the GRP-A1 playing a typical Moog Leadsound. Bassline comes from the Moog Grandmother and the Drums are taken from a Roland TR-8S. Other Synthesizer used are the Korg Wavestate and a Roland Juno 106. For FX the Eventide Blackhole is used as VST-Plugin."
"Today I'll be showing you the Non-Linear Memory Machine (NLMM for short), a stereo digital delay with pitch, freeze and granular functions. I had a great fun trying out this module, many thanks to @holocene_electronics for sending this to me to make this demo."
"The Non-Linear Memory Machine is an audio buffer device. Set to a short buffer length, the NLMM is capable of creating alien phaser sounds to reverb and delays. While in a longer buffer length Frippertronics / time lag accumulator style looping is available.
FUNCTIONS / CONTROLS
TIME/SCRUB
Controls the delay time of the signal. The delay time can span from a few milliseconds to up to 15 seconds, depending on the buffer length. Unlike analog delays like tape or BBD delays, when modulated the pitch of the signal does not drift. Instead, it compresses and expands time in interesting textures via a custom time-stretching algorithm. When activating Freeze via the freeze switch, this knob functions as the play head's position within the buffer.
SMEAR
Randomizes the Time/Scrub control, adding random jitters to the position of the playhead and diffuses the signal in a way that can be utilized as a pseudo reverb effect. (experiment with the Time/Scrub knob and Feedback knob to create glitchy reverbs.)
PITCH
Pitch shifts the signal +- 1 octave. This knob snaps to perfect 5ths and an octave but you can dial it in between intervals. Nice crunchy aliasing when pitch shifting is applied.
DRY/WET
Crossfades between the dry signal and processed wet signal.
FEEDBACK
Feedbacks the delayed signal back into the input. Set it up to 4’o’clock when in Medium or Long mode to experiment with TLA or Frippertronic style looping.
BUFFER RANGE
Switch between delay ranges according to the list below.
\SHORT – 20ms ~ 320ms
\\MEDIUM – 320ms ~ 1.6sec
\\\LONG – 1.45sec ~ 15sec
FREEZE
The Freeze switch acts like an infinite sustain pedal, but you can also scrub through the buffer with the time/scrub knob when activated. Red means recording, and unlit means the buffer is frozen / not recording. Great for practicing scales or droning away."
