Disintegration of Voice into Water Drops

video upload by Element433 (a.k.a. Pere Villez)

"The Elementary Signal Engine is used to create the illusion of vocal disintegration into water drops and back. FOF synthesis was first created by Xavier Rodet in 1978 and though there has been some tentative implementations of FOF virtual none (outside Csound) have incorporated powerful features such as octaviation, jitter, formant bandwidth and FOFlet duration (all demonstrated here).

At the Mountains of Madness (Lovecraft) on The Elementary Signal Engine

video upload by Element433 (a.k.a. Pere Villez)

"At The Mountain of Madness" inspired by the Lovecraft novel. Composed and played on my old 2014 clunky app "The Elementary Signal Engine" thinking of reviving it and creating a PD/Plug Data version" now that machines are much faster. I have the core part restored and starting to optimise it."

2 boring signals into Monsoon and Typhoon

"2 stupid signals feed Monsoon and Typhoon. Juniper and Neo Trinity generates quantized tensions, and things got less boring and more musically pleasant."

Of cyclotrons and sequencers: recreating a 1974 “probability controller” in Eurorack

video upload by Electrum Modular

"This is the first video in a new series exploring the University of Iowa’s Electronic Music Studio. In addition to presenting its historic instruments (including a 1968 Moog IIIP with custom-made modules), and the famous musicians who have used them, these videos will extrapolate ideas to use in your own modular systems. This episode examines a unique random sequencer that was developed in 1974 by Paul Dingman, an electrical engineering student at Iowa. It then shows how it might be recreated using the third lane ('time') on Make Noise’s 0-Ctrl. NOTE: several other Eurorack sequencers also have this feature, as indeed does the Moog’s own 960 sequential controller; alternatively, use an LFO to clock any sequencer and patch the sequencer’s second lane/channel (if it has one) back into that LFO’s frequency input.

Portrait of Peter Tod Lewis: https://composers.com/collections/pet...

Music: Peter Tod Lewis, 'Gestes II' (1974), from the Mnemothèque Internationale des Arts Electroacoustiques (University of North Texas Music Library). Program notes for an EMS concert on April 13, 1979, described “Gestes II” as “the generation of musical gestures through coordinated operation of sequential controllers programmed to produce a large but finite collection of voltages, controlling variously oscillators, amplifiers, and filters” (University of Iowa Music Library)."

Electronica w/ monome norns shield, grid, Prophet-10 | Factitious Fever 2025-03-26 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the Prophet‑10, monome norns shield, and grid. It’s a session built around repeating synth harmonies and non‑repeating melodies.

On the Prophet‑10, I play a slow‑attack synth pad mixed with noise oscillators.

On the Norns Shield, I launch the “sines” engine and perform via Grid, routing the output through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II and ‪@gfisys‬ SPECULAR TEMPUS. I adjust the MOOD MK II’s CLOCK parameter to change the pitch of the sines.

The drums are constructed in the DAW by editing recorded sounds and layering samples.'

ATARI ST "The Intelligent Sequencer REALTIME" Recording – JAPAN Visions of China

video upload by plantssystem

"This is a rare recording of The Intelligent Sequencer REALTIME by Eric Ameres, a real-time MIDI sequencer for the ATARI ST. In this video, the sequencer is used to play Visions of China by the British band JAPAN.

As the name suggests, The Intelligent Sequencer REALTIME allows real-time recording and editing of MIDI sequences, making it a unique tool among ATARI ST music production software. This video captures MIDI data input, playback, and editing, providing a glimpse into the music production environment of that era.

For those interested in ATARI ST MIDI sequencers or vintage music production, this is a must-watch. Enjoy!"

Update:

"The sound is played using the SoundFont function of the ATARI ST emulator hataroid. The SoundFont is based on the Roland SC-55, and the drums are custom made by sampling the live sounds of the parts myself. hataroid can also control external synths using MIDI."

"Metaphors of ""buffers," "tape loops" etc. have often been used to describe the inner workings of modules, but the MultiMod might better be understood through the metaphor of orbiting planets."

Using the DB-01 arp to write sequences

video upload by Richard DeHove

"Jamming with the DB-01s arp is loads of fun; commiting that to a sequence is not quite as amusing. Here I go through a simple method to capture the moment. Better yet, have your arp permanently recording in loop mode and grab those otherwise unrepeatable riffs that can suddenly materialize from nothing. Guest stars: the Boss GEB-7 EQ and Darkglass B3K.

And at the end, some more fun with the arp as it pushes around a Korg Multi/Poly.
