PoliMaths | Multed Skewed Cycling Voltage Math | NUSS | Episode 04

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"OK, PoliMaths as an independent module, away from it's secred VCO comfort zone without a dual QXG. Is it worth diving into this deep, amazing, incredibly musical, versatile and innovative new concept? It's hard to say 'no' now, isn't it? On paper, it's a multed simple A/D envelope with a rise and fall, which can cycle. But it also features an 'oscillations' section, which is like an AD that always loops, and the AD can be shaped to the basic waveforms. So it's an LFO at low rates, and a VCO at high rates with V/OCT support that can decently track an octave or four. So it's not a precision VCO, it's an experimental sound maker. On it's own, polyphony is more like overlapping sounds, each sharing the same rate, which comes down to the same note. When spread is engaged, you'd skew these rates apart so you can morph between harmonic textures and atonal clusters. So it's polyphony, but confined to the 1 source, 8 copies design that marks the New Universal Synthesis System (NUSS).

On the negative side, it's not Maths, there's no voltage math, and it could be seen as a fancy mult for a single AD envelope or loop, with proper audio rate support and clever divisions and distributions.

But when you give it time, a wonderful module appears from behind the dense panel controls and the mysterious glyphs. On the positive side (where you can always find me), PoliMaths is a must have module. But I am also an extremely biased MakeNoise fan. I'd say this is not a typical beginner module, but if you want to make your modular stand out from the conventional east and west, this is definitely a module to consider."

Tech House on M8 Tracker Model:02 & MPKmini : Selectable 2025-10-05 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@Dirtywave‬ M8 Tracker Model:02 and ‪@Akai_Pro‬ MPKmini. Tech house where even kicks and intricate synth tones pass through filters and delay.

The MPKmini is used to control the M8 via Ableton’s MIDI thru. The knobs on the MPK control the filter cutoff of the synth tones and the DJ filter cutoff.
The keyboard is used to play the M8’s MACROSYNTH, with the arpeggiator turned on to generate detailed phrases."

Kodamo Mask1 - just jamming on a patch

"Just having fun jamming on a new patch on my Mask1 OG / Old School / Mark1 😂. Recorded directly into my camera so the audio is not all that, but it sounded great through my monitors."

"GODWIN / MORESCHI CD 1 - 1984

What is this thing?
Why does it look so awesome?
Who controls it?
How?

Also released under the Moreschi brand and sometimes with a reversed control panel, the questions are piling up over here and since this unicorn doesn't get captured very often we thought we owed the internet quality photos and an in-depth, technical video demonstration of its functions.

We haven't managed to crack open the Treble sounds - we need the schematics to properly access those - if anyone has them please contact us - and stay tuned for a Part II then.

The video probably has the information you need but let's dive in to a basic rundown here just in case:

The CD1 is an Italian auto-accompaniment unit derived from the Godwin Drummaker 32.
Hooking this up to an electronic accordion, foot pedals or an organ you get organ and polyphonic sounds, pre-programmed chords, arpeggios, bass lines and drum machine patterns.
It's unclear which accordion model is compatible to the CD1, if such an object exists.

The unit has 6 sections: Drum machine, Bass, Chords, Arpeggio, Treble and Solo sounds. Plus a modulation section.

The 2 arpeggio sounds are the same as on the Drummaker 32 while the drums are unique to the CD1.
Our plan is to unlock the last tabs sounds properly once we find the schematics or manual but in the meantime the unit trigger 4 chords with the Program push buttons so you can still use it and it sounds great."
