OP-1 Daydreams

Published on Aug 11, 2017

"A little chill jam recorded on four tracks, and accompanied with some daydream visuals. Do you also daydream when you make music?

The entire track was made with the OP-1 and reflects some of the possibilities. Only a bit of EQ was added in post production. It is an amazing instrument to bring when you travel or just to make music outside.

Some images and clips were generated using our custom neural image processing software (experimental)

Hope you enjoy it, and stay tuned for more videos during the fall!"

Cirklon Note Capture (Feature Request)

Danny Piccione
Published on Aug 11, 2017

"This was a Max for Live patch I hacked together to intercept MIDI data between the Cirklon & Monologue in order to show how musical real time note feedback would be when used in Note Dub Record mode.

The M4L patch listens to the currently held keyboard note im playing, and swaps note values with the note Cirklon is sending out. Simultaneously Note Dub Record mode is active, so once the sequence loops back to the start (4 bars in this case), you can hear the newly recorded notes being played back.

You can hear how I start with every note in the sequence as D# and develop from there. Very fun to come up with something basic and then start adding different notes in various spots throughout the sequence. Especially fun to play alongside some sequenced modulation (in this case envelope mod & filter cutoff on the Monologue)."

"Audio and Video by G-Storm Electro c.2017

I replaced the memory backup battery today. Before restoring my patches, I took a little tour of the corrupted/random patch data. Behold the glorious analog synthesizer dark noise madness. I'm talking full-on freakout mode. Take note of the corrupted patch names - reminds me of some weird alien dialect. In case you're wondering there is nothing wrong with my synth, it's working better than ever before. Recorded direct to Tascam DR-5, only normalization applied to some quiet parts."

Multiple Filter Modes for Roland GR-300

Expedition Electronics
Published on Aug 10, 2017

"Second in the series of Gr-300 mods and it's a long one! This mod provides 15 different filter modes in a similar manner as the Oberheim Xpander. I ramble on through the list of modes first without playing the synth. Actual synth output audio starts at about 5:30. Skip ahead if you want to get right to it! The synth output is panned mostly left and commentary mostly right if you want to try to balance it (or want to mute commentary)

Just near the end I mention a 3 bit DAC, but I should have said 3 bit ADC."

I believe this is a follow-up to this previous post.

Circuit Mono Station Now Available

via Novation

"Circuit Mono Station is now available for sale in-store and online. The next-generation sequenced monosynth builds on the 32 velocity-sensitive RGB pads found on Circuit, with a paraphonic analogue synthesiser that originates from the Bass Station II, plus three sequencer tracks that benefit from the 32 velocity-sensitive RGB pads found on Circuit.

The synth has two oscillators that can be individually controlled, three distortion modes, plus one multi-mode filter with high-pass, low-pass or band-pass. With Circuit Mono Station, the sync and tuning parameters of its two oscillators can be individually controlled. It also offers four waveshapes (sawtooth, triangle, square and sample + hold), a sub-oscillator, ring modulation and noise generation. Users can get the frequency band they want by applying high-pass, low-pass and band-pass filters with slopes of 12dB and 24dB. In addition, Circuit Mono Station introduces a powerful overdrive.

Both monophonic and paraphonic modes are available, with each oscillator individually controlled by its own sequencer. In total, there are three sequencer tracks: two oscillator sequencers and one modulation sequencer. Users can alter Gate length, switch patterns instantly, choose sync rate and mutate patterns.

A four-by-eight modulation matrix makes it possible to route from LFO with the four waveshapes, envelope, sequencer or velocity, enabling complex modulation for pitch, pulse-width, amp, filter, distortion or CV. Up to 64 patches can be loaded and saved on the device, right at the user's fingertips.

Circuit Mono Station controls separate hardware via CV, Gate and modulation outputs, and has MIDI In, Out and Thru, so other MIDI gear can be connected. Passing an audio signal through the audio input opens up a world of analogue filtration and distortion. Using the audio input with the mod sequencer, a source can be modulated, evolved and processed in entirely new ways. Via USB, Circuit Mono Station can be plugged into Mac or PC, where unlimited patches can be kept using Components.

Pricing is as follows:

US = $499.99 ex. tax

Germany = €549.99 inc. 19% VAT

UK = £479.99 inc. 20% VAT"

PATCH NOTES

Clocked and sequenced from Ableton Live using the Arturia MicroBrute as sound source and as CV interface for the CZ-VCO.

The two voices go into the Optomix (used as dual VCA) and on into the Pittsburgh Modular MIX3, which isn't more than a buffered mult to feed the two inputs on the Tiptop Audio Z-DSP.

The Z-DSP is my end-of-chain reverb and running the Valhalla card, obvs.

Maschine and Mutable Instruments Peaks supply the drums (the latter being sequenced from the Beatstep Pro).
