Creating HUGE oscillator tones with OCCULT (+ Ouija & Wand) & the Nekyia Circuits Eurorack range
video upload by DivKid
"Here we have the 3 new Nekyia Circuits Eurorack modules - Occult, Ouija and Wand. We'll focus on the star of the show here, the TZFM, sub octave generating, Ian Fritz double pulser wave shaping and external crossfading oscillator OCCULT! However we use Wand to crossfade at audio rates into new tones and Ouija for some musical ring mod too.
It's been a pleasure to check out the existing modules and to use those alongside the new ones here. As always the focus is to provide ideas and techniques while demonstrating how things work. So I hope you can take some of the patches to try out.

39:15 For the ULTRA SYNTH NERDS - Occult + Ouija F**K YEAH
Occult is an analogue TZFM Triangle-core VCO/LFO with a wide frequency range and unique waveshaping capabilities! It features nine simultaneously available wave outputs: Sine, Triangle, Square and Pulse, a PWM Saw, Sub -1 and Sub -2, plus the outputs of Shaper and an interesting Pulser waveshaper circuit. Pulser is a waveshaper based on the “double pulser” circuit by Ian Fritz, able to produce exotic, rich sounding waveforms. The Shaper section adds a crossfader which can mix between the normalized Sine wave or any other external input and the Pulser or the also includes a TZFM input with an attenuator control, capable of producing more musical and complex FM tones than for every parameter as well as FM options make Occult a very versatile oscillator for sonic exploration!
4/27/25 Roland System 100m & SPH 323 + Peavey 1300 + Ace Tone MP-4 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

"4/27/25 RYK 185 + Roland System 100m & SPH 323 Phase Shifter + Peavey 1300 + Ace Tone MP-4 + Alesis MIDIVERB II
I was going for Burzum low fidelity with the Peavey 1300 overloading and the Ace Tone MP-4 spring reverb feedbacking. Anyways, ALM Pamela’s New Workout clocks the right RYK Modular 185, which gates one of the Roland 140 envelopes and the left RYK 185, which gates the other envelope. Each 185 modulates the pitch of one Roland 110 VCO and VCF, while the VCFs are also modulated by LFOs from the 140 and 150 modules. The 140 envelopes control the two 110 VCAs, which are mixed on a Roland 132 and sent through the Roland SPH-323 Phase Shifter into the Peavey 1300 delay. The Ace Tone MP-4 is patched into itself for feedback as it further distorts the delayed signal and adds spring reverb."

VCO vs VA // Delia vs Nina - there's more to it than that
video upload by Starsky Carr
"What's the difference sonically? I've not heard these 2 demo'd side by side in depth. We know the specs - Melbourne Instruments Nina has 12 voices, each containing 2 VCOS plus a digital oscillator, and the Melbourne Instruments Delia uses virtual analog to do the same thing with 6 voices - with some 'Paraphonic PLUS' 12 voice modes.
There are other additions in the Delia, like FM, an extra LFO and envelope plus oyu can have dual effects in parallel or serial.
BUT.. what's the consequence of replacing the VCOs with the VA oscillators?"
