Strymon DIG delay with a DB-01 synth

video upload by Richard DeHove

"Anyone on a quest for the perfect delay will eventually try a Strymon. There's a lot of choices but I settled on the DIG digital delay. It has most of the usual features for a mid-to-high level delay such as tap, filter, and mono or stereo input. The dual-function knobs are a bit annoying, but bearable. Overall the unit has a really solid and sure feel. Here I'm testing it with the Erica Synths DB-01 synth, which it pairs with most happily.
The first half of the video has a fair amount of talking, the second half is all audio.

Sound design using through-zero phase modulation – LA67 T-ZED oscillator

video upload by Monotrail Tech Talk

"Today we are having a look at through-zero phase modulation! An interesting variation to the common frequency modulation, offering new sounds and textures to the eurorack environment. For this we are using the T-ZED, from La Sesenta y Siete. A fully analog oscillator offering wave shaping, next to through-zero phase modulation.

In this video I explain phase modulation, go over the functions and features of the T-ZED oscillator, and of course, show you a series of patches to get started!"

Note this is the first post to feature La Sesenta y Siete.

T-ZED
OSCILLATOR
An analogue oscillator with through-zero phase modulation. The core of the T-ZED is the SSI2130 integrated circuit. Voltage controlled wave shape and phase modulation index allow for automated sonic versatility, and 2 separate frequency ranges mean the T-ZED can be used as an audio or CV source.
Features

• Simultaneous SINE, TRIANGLE, SAW, SQUARE, and variable SHAPE outputs
• Phase MOD input with bipolar INDEX circuit
• V/OCT input tracks 10 octaves
• FREQ spans 10 octaves, TUNE spans 1 octave
• Hard SYNC input
• SHAPE output (Sine to Triangle to Saw) with CV input and attenuator
• Frequency range HI: 10hz-25khz
• Frequency range LO: 0,1hz-200hz

Modwheel Morphing Delta CEP A

video upload by Jörg Schaaf

"Just bought a new MIDI keyboard for my Delta CEP A Synthesizer. I love to control the morphing with a modulation wheel. Here I am using to snapshots for the morphing. The second snapshot not only opens the filter. It also adds more oscillators to the swarm and adds detuning. I am working on a complete video tutorial about snapshot morphing and patch managment."

Casio MT-400V - The keyboard with an analog filter control

video upload by Keen On Keys

"The Casio MT-400V, released in 1984, is a small keyboard with 49 mid-sized keys, 8 note polyphony, 12 styles, 20 tones, vibrato, sustain/reverb and stereo chorus. It's main feature is a filter control with ADS and LFO modulation. It uses the NEC D930/931 ICs which were used for many Casio keyboards between 1983 and 1986. There's also a larger version existing, the CT-410V.

REALLY REALLY BAD! | MICHAEL JACKSON on HYDRASYNTH, iElectribe & Vogel CMI (Fairlight) | Mini Cover

video upload by Microflat

"I was almost 17 years old. I owned an Italian Elka EK-44 synth but longed for the legendary Roland D-50. Jacko released an out-of-this-world super pop album produced by Quincy Jones and mixed by Bruce Swedien. What a magic couple. Christopher Correll and Greg Phillinganes on excellent Synclavier playing and programming, among others. Incredible handcraft. Supernatural artists.

All audio output effects are default ASM Hydrasynth FX with a bit of compression and mastering done in Adobe Audition. Presets in use are “A114 InYoFaceBass”, “A122 CompThatFunk” and “B086 RighteousOrg”. Drum pattern is delivered by the Korg iElectribe “A19 Minimal 2” preset (BPM 115) with added notes handled by the AKAI MPK Mini controller. The Synclavier-kind-of-orchestral-Hit is delivered by the Vogel CMI (Fairlight) 'ORCH #16' preset."

Stylophone Gen X-1: How to use the stylus with the volca modular

video upload by Stylophone

"Use the Stylophone Gen X-1 stylus pen with the Volca Modular!

1) On the Volca Modular connect 'Pitch' to 'b'
2) Connect the Stylophone Gen X-1 stylus to the Volca Modular 'a+bxc'
3) Connect the Stylophone Gen X-1 aux to the Volca Modular CV socket
4) By adjusting the 'c' knob on the Volca Modular a whole tone scale can be produced!

"Initially I thought this project would end up as an electronic drum pad. But along the way it turned into a Weighing scale to Cv and Gate module. If you want to listen to the full track, its available on Bandcamp https://afrorack1.bandcamp.com/edit_t..."

Tiptop Audio Buchla 200t Sound Demo

"Buchla and Tiptop Audio 200t series workout.

Exploring Dual Oscillator Model 258t and Quad Function Generator Model 281t sound capabilities while recording my new EP. I was curious how the sound and response of those two modules will fit into my music and at the same time going into territories I wouldn't normally go to out of curiosity.

I've used a bunch of additional modules as my patches grew to hear how 200t modules fit with other eurorack modules and to keep everything in context, those where:

"This shows QBIII Alias being developed. This is the voice modulation connections allowing automatic pitch change, modify, envelope etc"

QasarBeach Alias Development 4 - FX

"This shows the FX in QBIII Alias being developed. The FX concept is based on the AMS DMX delay and reverb units from the 80's."
