"I created a MIDI controller called "yummy" to play existing synthesizers with the same feel as my homemade instrument "key-bowed". "yummy" will be exhibited at "Hamamatsu Micor Maker Faire 2025" on July 5th, so if you're interested, please come and play around with it! ◆ X: https://x.com/washiyamagiken

Mandala mk2 tutorial 12: linking tracks


video upload by likaoninstruments

"This is a very useful feature when we have a CV (pitch) track, and want to generate corresponding envelopes from another track.

In the envelope track options, go to 'Link to', select the reference track and boom! The steps from the reference track are copied any kept in sync.

As a bonus, you can lock some steps on the slave track, and they will stay untouched if the reference track changes :)"



via Likaon Instruments

"The Mandala mk2 is a HIGHLY boosted revision of the original Mandala.

Oh wait, we can’t call it a revision actually. It is a completely new product that takes its roots from the original Mandala, and adds many features, including melodic capabilities and advanced generative capabilities on 8 tracks.

TRIGGER SEQUENCING
Euclidean by default
Easy manual step toggling
From 1 to 128 steps per track, plus 4 substeps per step
Direct mute switch on each track

CV SEQUENCING
Melodic sequencing
AD Envelope generator (linear, exponential), invertable
Arbitrary CV (-5 to +5V) per step
CV glide (linear or exponential, for custom LFOs!)
Quantization (internal or external, S&H or continuous)
Transposition (for chords!)

GENERAL TOOLS
4 quick save slots for live playing
8 CV inputs for modulation (customizable binding)
Possibility to toggle gates instead of sending triggers
Trigger probability on track and step level
Trigger shuffle, CV shuffle (with adjustable chance) for generative beats and melodies
Copy from one track to another in one click
Master clock output
Save / load presets to microSD card
MIDI in/out"

Introducing Crow 3, Double Helix Wavetable Processor, and Local Florist 2

Pittsburgh Modular Safari Series 9 is full of classic sounds, unique effects, and lo-fi digital chaos.

Crow 3 Filter
The latest iteration of the Crow pairs the destructive power of the original, Safari Series #1 module with the smoothest iteration yet of the Pittsburgh Filter sound. This module can sound beautiful or brutal or both.

Double Helix Wavetable Processor
Ten years ago we created a chaotic, low-fi, digital 9-bit wavetable oscillator module. After testing the prototypes, the limitations of our small company forced us to shelve the finished module before a full production run was realized. Recently, we made the mistake of gifting one of these ancient prototypes to our good friend who promptly posted a video and story on SonicState that caused our inbox to explode. So, due to popular demand, the Double Helix Wavetable Processor is finally here.

Local Florist 2
More feedback and a larger palette of options pushes the Local Florist 2 deeper into a unique world of experimentation. The Local Florist 2 offers a range of possibilities effects including flanging (kinda), chorus (yes), reverb (true), spring-y feedback sounds (all day), karplus strong (not really, but sorta), vibrato (yes), plucky percussive string sounds (yes), and general robot space sounds (often). Thank you for continuing to support your Local Florist!

Price, Availability, and More Information
The retail price for the Crow 3 and Local Florist 2 are $199 each. The retail price for the Double Helix is $299. Because these modules are considered experiments, production has been limited. The modules are available now through the Pittsburgh Modular web shop. More information regarding the Crow 3, Local Florist 2, and Double Helix Wavetable Processor Eurorack Modules is available at pittsburghmodular.com/safari.
