There are many ways to get to your goal.

"Presenting my thoughts on finding different ways to get to a goal. This example starts out with the 'normal' way of making a sequencer pattern and discovering alternative ways that require less hardware, but with the same results.

An In-Depth Look at the Hi Five CV Controllers

"This is a full overview and video manual for the Hi Five system of remote CV controllers for Eurorack synthesizer.

HI FIVE works with DIG IT! or MANUAL OVERRIDE as a remote CV controller system that expands the expressive and social range of your Eurorack modular synthesizer. Turn your solo jam into a playtime with kids, a modular synthesis tutorial, or a drum circle with friends by passing the controller around!

HI FIVE sends +12V and receives five analog CV signals over an ethernet cable from a (potentially) infinite variety of CV controllers.

Each CV channel can be attenuverted +/-10V and offset +/-5V before its output.

RJ45 development PCBs are available, and included in every HI FIVE DIY kit. Design your own dream controller!

DIG IT! controls its five CV channels with a joystick, FSR pressure point, a bright arcade-style LED solo button and a LED button and 45mm fader pair. The buttons have on-momentary off and off-momentary on settings.

In this video, DIG IT! is modulating parameters on a Mutable Instruments Plaits module in 2-op FM mode, as well as a generative analog algorithm passing through a quantizer that is producing its melodic line.

MANUAL OVERRIDE controls CV with 60 mm faders and LED button pairs similar to channel E of DIG IT! on all five channels. It's controlling a Mutable Instruments Grids module and several drum sounds.

Standard color schemes for LEDs, buttons and fader caps are Rainbow (red-orange-yellow-green-blue), and Biopower Green. For an extra charge, we will build custom any combination of these colors (and white with black faders).

HI FIVE is 8 hp and 38mm deep.

Peak current:
35mA with MANUAL OVERRIDE
80mA with DIG IT!"

meloDICER & MEX3 - individual MIDI channels


video upload by vermonagear

"Next month (December 2024), we’re releasing a new firmware update for the *meloDICER*. While it includes some minor improvements, the highlight is the ability to set an individual MIDI channel per voice. Translation? You can now send up to three melodies simultaneously to three different synthesizers using the *MEX3*.

In this demonstration, we’re using two *Mono Lancet ’15*s and a ‪@1010music‬ Fireball:

The synth on the right kicks things off with a deep bass sound, blending sawtooth on oscillator 1 with some noise.
The red nanobox? It’s taking care of a string-like sound.
And the Mono Lancet ’15 on the left is playing a classic sawtooth patch.

All three synths are polished with delay and reverb effects from Logic Pro, just to give things that extra shimmer.

So, what do you think about this new feature? Is it something you see yourself using often, or just another reason to stay up all night making music? Let us know in the comments—we’d love to hear your thoughts!"

THONK SYNTH Introduces t01 VCO


video upload by Thonk Synth DIY

"Our 4hp t01 VCO is a fully analog high quality voltage controlled oscillator. It easily tracks over 8 octaves, and has a triangle core with excellent Linear FM.

PWM, Hard Sync, LFO mode, Octave switch and 4 outputs too and all at very competitive pricing. Available now at Thonk.

Out of sight in this video are some looping envelopes from a Vostok 'Fuji' which is modulating the amount of FM or PWM etc. There is a 4MS Looping Delay module at moments to add some nice echoes, a Vostok 'Ceres VCA is generally present before it hits the camera. A Kassutronics quantizer is used now and then for tuned melodies."



via THONK

This easy to build high quality Thonk VCO is a 4hp DIY eurorack analogue oscillator module. 8 octaves of tracking, Linear FM, PWM, LFO mode, octave switch and hard sync – all at competitive pricing. Designed in-house at Thonk.

The t01 VCO from Thonk Synth is a 4HP Eurorack analogue oscillator with triangle-core. This compact VCO packs in plenty of features including LFO mode, octave switching, hard sync and linear FM.

The t01 can track up to 8 octaves and has dedicated Sine, Triangle, Saw and Squarewave outputs (10Vpp). The pulse-width of the Squarewave can be modulated via CV and there are separate coarse and fine pitch controls for easy oscillator tuning.

The VCO core is based on the super stable SSI2131 chip from Sound Semiconductor. This module is part of a new range of DIY Eurorack designed in house at Thonk HQ.
