"In the forthcoming updates for Zaturn and Zaturn Zero, the function generators will send EOC (End Of Cycle) pulses. The EOC from any function generator can be used by any part !
In this video I am building a sequence, by making the EOC's from some parts trigger other parts :)
VCF7 is installed in this Zaturn Zero."

Synthesizing with Moog

"The soundtrack from the sixth episode of Synthesizing with Moog carries the lesson as we look at how to create harmonics using basic waveshapes through processes such as Frequency Modulation (FM), Amplitude Modulation (AM), and distortion effects like saturation and wavefolding.

We hope you enjoy this music created by Moog electronic musical instrument experts Max Ravitz ( / patriciaaa ) and Gunnar Haslam ( @lasynthesehumaine6932 ).

The Most Misunderstood Knob On Your Synth

video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"Allow me to demystify one of synthesis’ most misunderstood controls: the resonance knob. Using a variety of examples, I’ll show you how adjusting resonance can add character, while also explaining how the loss of bass as you turn it up can even substitute for a high-pass filter.

Resonance can be used for vocal-like effects by creating a fixed-frequency formant in the filter, or by controlling the filter with an ADSR envelope generator to shape percussive attacks at the front of a sound.

Then I take things further by making subtle changes to the filter’s attack envelope, revealing how a sound can 'speak' with even more personality.

This video is perfect for synth learners or anyone looking to unlock the full creative potential of resonance!"
