VCV Pluck - Stringed Out - madbrain

video upload by VCV Rack

"Patch created by madbrain"

"VCV Pluck

A physical modeling synthesizer simulates the acoustic properties of real instruments such as vibrating strings, resonating tubes, and struck surfaces. VCV Pluck uses DSP algorithms to model physical instruments with an intuitive interface to perform and fine-tune the sound. Musicians and sound designers can use this module to create familiar sounds or explore novel sounds beyond acoustic instruments.

Perform

Like many synth voices, VCV Pluck can be controlled by sequencers or MIDI sources via its V/OCT pitch and GATE inputs. If a polyphonic cable is patched to V/OCT, VCV Pluck generates a polyphonic voice. Optionally, patch a trigger signal into RETR if you need to retrigger the voice while the gate is active, which re-strikes the instrument even when playing legato notes. The VEL velocity input controls the intensity of sound from a 0–10 V signal. If VEL is unpatched, the voice’s intensity behaves like a 5 V velocity signal.

Enable HOLD to sustain the voice after the gate falls. This is useful for triggering percussive models like bells while allowing them to ring out completely, or for creating sustained drones."

The Analogue Solutions AS500-SEQ 64-Step Analogue Sequencer with Fusebox X and ARP Omni

video upload by Analogue Solutions

"The #AS500SEQ 64-step sequencer runs double-duty here, clocking the #FuseboxX and modulating/stepping the filter on this vintage #arpomni. Analogue sequencers can sequence pitch, but they are so much more fun and useful in your #modularsynth #studio. 🎛️🎛️🎛️🎵🎶🎵

The AS500-SEQ is compatible with many CV synths, modules and other gear both old and new!

Enjoy!"

a derelict pool by the motorway | a photowalk

"I took my trusty Canon EOS 30D with my less trusty Canon EF-S 17-55mm ƒ2.8 IS USM zoom on an early morning walk where I came upon a derelict swimming pool basking in quiet oblivion stuck between the corporate towers and the motorway.

Novation Peak geeking around

video upload by James Dyson

This is one of those videos where you won't hear much change until you jump around with the player controls. It's an interesting stroll through various wavetable waveforms, including live editing via the software editor. It will give you an idea of some of the textures capable on the Peak and Summit including the use of various effects and filter. You can zoom in on the Peak display to see some of the edits being made.

"Deep Space" (Vangelis Tribute, original Space Ambient music with Oberheim OBX8 M and Roland A50)

video upload by Phil and the Synths

"It's already more than two years that Vangelis left us! RIP!
This tribute was entirely created using the Oberheim OBX8 desktop, controlled using the Roland A50 with polyphonic aftertouch !
Custom sounds were used.
External effects (Shimmer and Delay) were provided using the Eventide H90.
Images were from Storyblocks.

Headphone recommended"

Erica Synths - Hexinverter Mutant Rimshot

video upload by Erica Synths

"The Mutant Rimshot is a fully analog rimshot and clave generator inspired by the rimshot found in the legendary 909 drum machine; a triple bridged-T oscillator coupled with a state variable filter. The clave sound (not a feature of the original 909 rimshot) is achieved by using just one of the oscillators. Redesigned by Erica Synths in close collaboration with Hexinverter.

Timeline:

00:00 - Jam 1 / 4x Rimshot modules mixed with the Hot Glue. No external FX
01:01 - Take 1 / Going through different modes, adding noise to VCF in
02:27 - Take 2 / FM radio into VCF in, Rimshot is triggered with the first LFO of the Modulator and CVF is modulated with the second LFO output
03:08 - Take 3 / Rimshot with VCF in Hi-Pass mode triggered and modulated with the Modulator
04:15 - Jam 2 / 4x Rimshot modules mixed with the Hot Glue. No external FX
04:57 - Take 4 / Another take with FM radio on the Rimshot VCF in
06:04 - Jam 3 / 4x Rimshot modules mixed with the Hot Glue. With some reverb form the Black Hole DSO on 2nd ant 4th rimshot"

"The Mutant Rimshot is an analog rimshot and clave percussion synthesis module inspired by analog drum machines of the past. Like the other Mutant Drums, the Rimshot is capable of going above and beyond vanilla sounds. Expressive CV options, an external input and a multi-mode analog filter let you create unique percussion sounds in your modular synthesizer.

Features:

Three oscillator modes

Rimshot HI mode brings classic rimshot sounds
Rimshot LO gives a lower pitch range; try playing with the filter on this setting to get low tom and kickdrum sounds.
CLV (Clave) mode uses just one of the oscillators to give you a brighter, higher percussive sound.
A switch on the back lets you select between original and extended pitch modes. Original mode can give you rimshots exactly modelling that of classic machines (in Hi mode), whereas extended mode gives a wider range of pitch, at the expense of classic accuracy.
Three filter modes
Use the lowpass or highpass filter modes for classic sounding rimshots
Highpass and bandpass can give a wider range of clave and rimshot sounds, as well as completely different percussive elements (especially when turning the resonance up!)

VCF IN lets you blend the clave or rimshot with other sounds. Try adding some filtered noise for a more acoustic sounding rimshot, or for pseudo-snare type sounds.
Novel decay and filter mod controls
The MOD DECAY envelope controls the decay of the VCA envelope
The VCF MOD attenuverter allows you to modulate the filter cutoff with the MOD DECAY envelope
Alternatively, a switch on the back lets you modulate the filter cutoff with the pitch-controlled internal VCO, for filter FM style percussive hits."
