Laniakea - Solo Dronebox

video upload by Uncertain Music Corps

"Really just scraping the surface of some of the things this intriguing oscillator can deliver by way of an initial demo. There will be others later I imagine.

To be clear, this is just the module on its own, recorded direct to camera. The FX aid is just being used as a convenient master level control. No external effect is in use.

Essentially this is a wavetable oscillator combined with a modal resonator and a decent reverb. But that doesn't really do justice to the world of sounds you can get out of it. This isn't a first run out. I've had it for about a week now and it's taken time to get to grips with its interface and some of its more obvious quirks.

The big knob is a kind of macro controller. You can set which parameters it will control and their depth/range. It's doing fairly subtle things here, modulating 3 different parameters simultaneously. I'm also using the dedicated pots at the same time.

The wavetable in use is not the factory standard one. Wavetables are in the familiar, open source format supported by WaveEdit app. They are easily swapped using an online app at the makers website via a USB C connector on the back of the circuit board. Keen eyes will notice I've got a cable installed as standard which saves time taking the module out of the rack just to update it and also reduces stress on the USB connector.

It's not an oscillator for everyone. But I think its a keeper for me."

ARP Odyssey – What a monster!

video upload by Marius Leicht

"I recently got my beloved ARP Odyssey back from restoration after more than two years! But it was so worth the wait.

The Oddy (pun intended) can be a bit intimidating at first glance: No pitch and modwheels, sliders instead of knobs, a bit of a quirky layout... combined with its surprisingly complex modulation capabilities, this puts the ambitious synthesist on the quest for the "taming of the unruly".

After spending some quality time with this now fully restored beauty, I get in touch with her soul deeper and deeper and I just performed a little improvised sound meditation, pushing the amazing 4023 filter of this rare whiteface mk I to places where no Behringer clone will ever go... ;-)

It touches my heart how she sings and dances with the Juno! Let me know what these sounds evoke in you!"

Erica Synths - Hexinverter Mutant Machine

video upload by Erica Synths

You might recall Erica Synths was set to resume production of Hexinverter modules.

"The Mutant Machine began as a quest to create a rich-sounding eurorack snare drum synthesis module to complement the existing Mutant Drums. The project quickly became too large and costly to justify the module being capable only of snare drum sounds. So, the decision was made to learn from the architecture of the TR-909’s snare and kick circuits, to develop a module capable of generating multiple forms of analog percussion, and various other effects. Even though it can create alien sounds, it still can deliver those classic 909 house snares and kicks if you want them. There are no microcontrollers in the Machine. The signals and waveforms are all generated by discrete components and ICs, for a distinctly analog sound, and user experience. Now redesigned by Erica Synths in collaboration with Hexinverter Electronique.

Timeline:
00:02 - Jam 1 / Sequenced and modulated with Black Sequencer
01:57 - Manually triggering and designing a sound
02:59 - Jam 2 / Sequenced and modulated with Black Sequencer
04:33 - Jam 3 / Triggered with Drum Sequencer (with accents)
05:58 - Self patched Mutant Machine
06:58 - Triggered with the Drum Sequencer and modulated with the Drum Modulator"
