Frap Tools CUNSA in-depth tutorial | Eurorack quadruple multimode analog filter module

video upload by Frap Tools

"Time to dive deep into Cunsa's main features! In this first tutorial, we will explore how a single filter works and how to combine them together to get the signature "Cunsa sound." This should get you started with CUNSA and let you understand its basic functioning. In the next episodes, we will see more specific applications!

02:21 The 12 dB/oct lowpass filter
02:41 The Q parameter (resonance, emphasis)
03:42 How the Q affects the LPF cutoff point at 12 dB/oct
04:15 The Character parameter
05:15 Combining Q and Character
05:55 The 24 dB/oct lowpass filter
06:10 The Character behavior on the oscilloscope (12/24 dB/oct LPF)
08:00 How the Q affects the LPF cutoff point at 24 dB/oct
08:15 A comparison of the 12 and 24 lowpass curves with different Q settings
08:52 The 12 dB/oct bandpass and highpass filters
10:09 How Q and Character affect the bandpass and highpass curves
10:23 The Behavior switch (filter and combo mode)
11:50 CV inputs for cutoff, Q, and Character
12:31 Using CUNSA as an oscillator (self-resonating filters)
13:13 Oscilloscope views of the self-oscillating filters
13:37 Fine-tune cutoff frequency knob
13:46 BONUS TIP: double TZFM oscillator with Cunsa and Brenso
14:12 The Ping circuit: nonlinear integration
15:40 Ping circuit and combo mode
16:10 Ping v/s ring, a brief recap
17:03 Semi-normalled connections

Joranalogue Audio Design ft. BRiES / channel take over / introduction

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"For the month of April, we're very excited to have BRiES take over our channels! Known for his in-depth tutorial videos on a variety of #eurorack modules with supremely musical excerpts, as well as writing his own extensive guides to Generate 3 and Compare 2, he's always eager to share his latest insights into analogue synthesis."

Groc - from train announcement to wavetable synth

video upload by oddment audio

"Can Groc do wavetable synthesis? Oh yes.

Here’s how: (1) pick a sound, (2) set the speed near 0, (3) turn the overlap all the way up, (4) use small grains, (5) have fun playing with speed and grain size to seamlessly move between the original sound and your wavetable synth!"

Talking Filters | Schlappy Patching with Stazma

video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"Episode 6 for Schlappy Patching!
Do you know how to make filters talk? It’s fun and one of my favorite patches to do with modular synthesizer, because of the amount of control you can have on the talking.

In this new episode of Schlappy Patching I’ll give it a go with the 100 Grit and Angle Grinder, the two filters of the Schlappi Engineering echo system.

Do you have a favorite talking filter?
Have fun watching!"

AtoVproject DHO Workshop at SchneidersLaden

video upload by SchneidersLaden

"The workshop by AtoVproject about the DHO – Dual Harmonic Oscillator at SchneidersLaden. AtoVproject introduce their exciting new oscillator and play a performance so you can hear the module in a musical context.

Complex oscillators are renowned for their amazing sonic potential. The DHO uses the power of digital controls to improve accessibility and inspiration. Each analog oscillator generates four octaves of triangle waves and modulates each other using through-zero FM. All of this is channeled through a four-stage diode wavefolder.

For extremely complex modulation there is the power of simplex noise implemented in the DHO. This is an algorithm straight out of the video game industry. One twist of a knob allows you to dynamically modulate 10 parameters. You can explore infinite soundscapes and give life to the whole module with just one CV input. This fantastic noise source can also direct the frequencies of up to 10 internal LFOs, injecting motion and complexity into your sound without cluttering your rack with external modulation sources."

4/1/24 Roland (& RYK, Lana) System 100m + Trogotronic 676 + Zerosum Inertia PLXNA2 + Lexicon PCM 70

video upload by Cfpp0

"The RYK Modular 185 sequencer for Roland System 100m sequences two 112 oscillators, which run into the 121 VCF into the 130 VCA, with an envelope from the 140. The 130 goes to the Zerosum Inertia PLXNA2, which goes to the Mackie Onyx 1640, with some Lexicon PCM 70 (Cascade BPM). The RYK 185 also sequences a Lana 212 VCO, which runs into the FM CV on the PLXNA2. This all produces the bass line melody. Another output on the right 112 VCO goes to the input on the Trogotronic 676, which creates the dissonant drone that is slowly faded in on the Mackie (with a lot more PCM 70)."

Details from the brochure:

IN THE HANDS; WHO MAKES THE RULES? HIERARCHICAL PERCEPTIONS GRASPING ELUSIONS OF CONTROL WITH THE LIGHTEST TOUCH ON SENSITIVE PROBLEMS, MIDAS IS HANDLING - HANDLING POSSIBILITIES.

SYSTEMS OF KNOWLEDGE OVERLAP, REVEALING ZONES OF CONFUSION, THE SOURCE ABSURDITY MANIFESTS TO SUGGEST REVISITATION: TO CONTEMPLATE CERTAIN ANGLES OF REPROGRAMMING THE METAORGANISM.

TO CLOSE A KEY IS TO RELEASE THE QUESTION, EXPLORING OTHER CORNERS OF PYCSHOTELEMETRY: MEASURING KNOWN STEPS - INSERTING REPEATING INGREDIENTS - YET FACILITATION THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW RANGES, LOCATIONAL DYNAMICS IN UNMAPPED ENCOMPASSING DIMENSIONS, AND VITAL - ALMOST IMPERCEPTIBLE - DIFFERENCES TO THE ORIGINAL MEDIA.

THE OBSERVER MAY ABANDON THEIR ROLE TO INSTEAD DEFINE THEIR EXPERIENCE; THUS, DESPITE INDUCTIVE DUST INDICATIVE OF ONE MILLION REPETITIONS, THE NEXT INSTANTIATION YIELDS SOMETHING GREATER THAN ITS SUM.

WAHT IS REAL?
FAUG GOLD IN THE HANDS?
SIXTEEN RECTANGLES NEATLY ARRANGE TEN-STAGE CURVES BY SIX MOON'S PHASE FOUR TIMES. ONCE UNDER LEAD LAMPS, THE EXTINGUISHED LIGHT BREACHES AN OLD WINDOW AND THE SCOPE NOW FRAMES THE NEIGHBORING FIELD, WHERE THE RAM RETRIEVES A MEMORY OF THE BREAKING POINTS.

SO UNREAL: AN INDEX OF CONTINUOUS IMPLICATIONS THAT THE DEFINITION OF THE EDGE IS STILL SUBJECT TO VARIATION, N-DIMENSIONAL TRAJECTORIES TRACING AXES STILL UNKNOWN.

TECHNIQUES ARE EMPLOYED, FROM WHICH UNUSUAL LINKS AND PROCESSES JUMP FUTURE ELEMENTS AN EXAMINATION OF STRUCTURE; INDIVIDUAL MUSIC; INDIVIDUAL LANGUAGE. IN TIME, EMERGENT NONLINEARITIES MERGE TO DEFINE THE USER PROGRAM: A NEW SENSE OF PERCEPTUAL MECHANICS; A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP TO YOUR OWN EXTERNAL FEEDBACK SYSTEM; A DEPARTURE OR CONTRAST.

TO MATURE IN EXISTENCE, TO FLOWER IN PERCEPTION, EVALUATE RELATIONSHIPS, REDUCE LOGICAL ASSUMPTIONS, SKIP THE NEXT ACTION, AND CHECK THE SUM.

STOP; DON'T LOOK UP; TRANSFER OPERATIONS, SCORE MANIPULATIONS, AND UNFOLD THE OTHER PLANS.

ANOTHER ITERATION, THE TASK'S NEW BRANCH, NOW EMERGING: ADDRESS THE SEQUENCE - THE DEFAULT PERCEPTUAL HIERARCHY PROCESSION, SUCCESSION, AND CHANGE.
