Intellijel Cascadia: patching Ring Mod into FX loop with Chroma Console

video uploads by The Synth Shed

Playlist:

1. Intellijel Cascadia sound demo with Vector Five12 sequencer (no talking)

Sound demo showing how to set up a basic patch and modulations (based on some of the start-up examples in the manual) - with CV pitch/gate controlled through the amazing Five12 Vector Sequencer to give us a driving techno line with lots of dirt.

side-note: I don't know if I was hallucinating after too much coffee, but by the end I thought the melody had morphed into the Star Wars Imperial March. WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE!

2. Intellijel Cascadia: patching Ring Mod into FX loop with Chroma Console

Fourth part of my initial Cascadia explorations, again using the Chroma on fx duties, but this time with the added textures created by patching the Cascadia's Ring Modulator into the FX loop. Tasty sounds!

3. Intellijel Cascadia x Chroma Console = 'Add N to (X)'

Building on the patch and sequence created for my first Cascadia sound demo, we take things further with the addition of the inspiring multi-fx unit Chroma Console from Hologram Electronics. The perfect pairing for creating experimental sounds - and if you slow the tempo you're in instant 'Add N to (X)' chunky synth groove territory. Once again driven by the Five12 Vector Sequencer.

4. Intellijel Cascadia x Chroma Console PART 2: Filthy fuzz bass!

Had so much fun experimenting with this killer combo in the first video, that I ended up recording another video just to show how dang low down and dirty the Cascadia can go with a little help from its friends (in this case, FX from the Chroma and sequencing via the Five12 Vector)

"great and super rare, performance friendly sequencer. tons of options, has basically anything a great sequencer can have.

has cv and midi control. is compatible with any midi-controlled equipment, as well as with any voltage controlled equipment, like analogue synthesizers, modular and semi-modular synthesizers, etcetera.

has very flexible internal routing, and different rows can be monophonic, combined, polyphonic, or controlling different midi parameters.

with cv of course it’s even more flexible, whenever you patch it to - can be sequenced.

"EMW WCS-1x Digital/Analog hybrid monosynth in excellent cosmetic and fully functional condition. I bought this after hearing it at a trade show. The multimode filter sounds amazing, super punchy and does incredible bass sounds, but also strange SH-03 style timbers.

The WCS-1x uses a DSP-based "Wave Composition Oscillator". The WCO's toggle switches allow you to access several waveshapes ( -including a fundamental square, a sub-octave, an "acid ring" waveform -which adds an aggressive edge to your sound, a sawtooth as well as a square wave -routed through either a bandpass or low pass filter -depending upon their respective toggle's position ). The WCO's toggle switches also allow you to select various octave settings ( +1 Octave, +3 Octaves or the fundamental's ). The LFO wave toggle allows you to select either a triangle or square wave for modulation purposes. At the top left corner of the WCO section is a MIDI channel button ( -with a "Gate" and "Learn" LED ). Next to it, you'll find a glide + and - ( portamento ) toggle switch. An unconventional arrangement but it works once you get used to it.

The remainder of the WCS-1x's controls are more straight forward knobs. You get one each for filter cut-off, filter resonance, filter envelope modulation, filter LFO modulation ( amount ) with the last knob to the right controlling the LFO's frequency. Below the filter section you'll find four knobs for controlling VCA attack, decay, sustain and release envelope segments. The knobs have a smooth, rock solid feel as you turn them."
