PlantsSystem-SingleRoom


video upload by plantssystem

"At SingleRoom, we performed an interactive set utilizing the Prophet-5 and 'M.' By blending the warm, analog tones of the Prophet-5 with the refined digital textures of 'M,' we created real-time sonic transformations.

This performance incorporated an improvisational approach, ensuring that each rendition unfolded with unique musical developments. By adapting the sound to the atmosphere and audience reactions, we provided a one-of-a-kind experience.

Harnessing the Prophet-5’s rich filters and the dynamic sound shaping of 'M,' we crafted deep, immersive synth sounds. Characterized by its simplicity yet profound depth, this performance stood as an exploration of the fusion of music and technology, offering listeners fresh inspiration."


Update: Some additional info via plantssytem on M:

"There is a deep relationship between Cycling'74's (MAX) M and ATARI M. Originally, ATARI M was developed by David Zicarelli, the current founder of Cycling'74, and Eric Amres, the founder of the 'Intelligent Sequencer Realtime' that I posted about last time. The prototype of MAX M is ATARI M. In addition, M was also released on the Commodore platform. I use ATARI M, which gives a more cutting-edge, direct and straightforward impression. The current ATARI emulation runs on Linux WattOS using Wine. I will send you the title splash of ATARI M and Realtime."

PlantsSystem-Visions 1/2 2/2


video upload by plantssystem

"Visions 1/2 2/2 were created with Cycling'74 M and SEQUENTIAL Prophet-5.
M runs on a PowerBook G3 and uses the piano and koto sounds from the built-in QuickTime sound source.
Prophet-5 is layered on top of that.
1/2 is Piano & Prophet-5.
2/2 is Koto & Prophet-5.
It is a two-part work.
The Prophet-5 provides a shadowy pad sound on 1/2 and a noise modulation sound on 2/2.

gen one (Cycling '74 M driving Korg OASYS PCI on OS9 G4 Mac)


video upload by Analog Industries

"Tuning my OS 9 music machine; playing with Cycling '74's excellent (and first, I think?) generative music application, M, driving the Korg OASYS PCI card. The card is running two virtual analog synths and a 2 OP FM synth, along with a hall reverb and Dan Phillips' excellent SD3000 emulation. The audio is recorded directly from the analog output of the card."

4/4/24 (swarm) Gieskes Klok & No Drum + Zerosum Inertia PLXNA2 + OAM Uncertainty + Lexicon PCM 70


video upload by Cfpp0

"Butterflies, bats, 16mm swarm: Gieskes Klok modulates itself and No Drum and Olivia Artz Modular Uncertainty, which modulates No Drum, while Klok gates No Drum."

You cand find additional Gieskes Kok module posts here.

This appears to be the first post to feature Olivia Artz Modular. Details on their modules follow via Perfect Circuit and Noisebug.



"Uncertainty from Olivia Artz Modular is a 2hp coin toss module; it is open source, with new, user-swappable firmware being developed. So, it will continue to grow and offer new functionality!

In the standard firmware, the top input accepts gates, triggers, or any signal between -5V and +5V. Based on whether the input is positive or negative, it uses two different types of logic to produce gates at the corresponding eight outputs. If the input is above +1V, then the module does eight differently-weighted "coin tosses"—one for each output. If the outcome of the toss is "heads," a +5V signal is output for as long as the input stays above 1V. If the input signal is -1V or lower, a slightly different coin toss algorithm is used, where the outputs are paired—if the result of the toss is "heads," the upper output of the pair in question sends out a signal, and if it's "tails," the lower outputs sends out a signal.

Alternate firmwares are available for free, and loading them is as easy as plugging in your module via the rear PCB USB connection, dragging on a file, and you're done. The first new official firmware is a VU meter—with the panel LEDs displaying the current voltage level, and each LED getting a dedicated gate output—somewhat like a multi-window comparator! Olivia Artz's Uncertainty module is a great way to add chance operations to your rack without sacrificing space.

UNCERTAINTY FEATURES

2HP chance module with alternate firmwares available
Default firmware uses two distinct coin toss algorithms to convert incoming bipolar signals into eight streams of outgoing gates

sfizz! - new in Max 8.6


video upload by Cycling '74

"Download the patch see here: https://cycling74.com/products/new-in...

The sfizz~ object provides a way to load, construct, and use polyphonic sample-based instruments in Max.

At its simplest, this enables easy access to more interesting sounds for MIDI-oriented Max patches. Going deeper, sfizz~ also enables authoring and prototyping your own sample-based instruments to use in Max either through standard .sfz files or using a Max Dictionary."

10 - MINUTE AMBIENT PIECE USING CYCLING 74' MAX MSP/ BEAP/ JITTER


video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
Made this short 10-minute ambient piece using Cycling '74 Max, and more specifically the modular engine called Beap, as well as Jitter. Everything was recorded into an element called 'Recorder'. Did some slight EQ and compression adjustments in Ableton after that, but very minimal to stay true to what was recorded in Max.

Darwin Grosse of Cycling 74, 20 Objects and the Art + Music + Technology Podcast Has Passed Away



Some sad news sent my way via Joshua Shroyer, also feauted on Synthopia, where you'll find additional info on the impact Darwin Grosse has had in the synth community.

You should be familiar with his 20Objects Art + Music + Technology podcasts posted here on MATRIXSYNTH, as well as numerous other posts. His website is hosted at 20objects.com. He also worked with Cycling 74 and participated in LEAF (Lafayette Electronic Arts Festival). The image to the left is from the LEAF website which has the following bio on him:

"Darwin Grosse works in a modular world, combining modular synthesizers, video tools and compositing software to combine minimalist visuals with generative soundscapes. Based out of Northfield, Minnesota, Darwin uses natural movement as source material for geometric visual pieces, and writes custom audio-reactive software for his multimedia work."


His final podcast from May 15, 2022:

Ambient Modular Performance (Cycling '74 Max MSP/Beap)


video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
I am away from my modular system for another week, so I am trying to use some great software devices to make the content as a temporary solution. Made this patch as extensive as possible, but it was very close to crashing my computer just due to the sheer amount of connections and effects that I had running. If you want to try it out for yourself and have Max on your computer. I am giving this patch to all of my Patrons. Happy New Year!

Ambient Explorations pt.27 ( Cycling '74 Max MSP BEAP)


video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
Just wanted to see what kind of ambience I am able to design on Max's BEAP, which was one of the tools that I used while learning modular synthesis, and also before I started collecting modules.

OWL Max Tutorial 8: Gen Synth Voice EP1


video upload by Rebel Technology

"Cherif Hashizume is back with a new tutorial, and this time he is building a complete MIDI monosynth in gen~ for the Lich Eurorack module.

The patch will comprise dual VCOs, VCF, and VCA with an AR envelope. In this episode, we get to try out the new Lich template, and create a simple gen~ patch with dual VCOs: one square wave oscillator and one triangle oscillator, with adjustable waveshape, detuning, and oscillator mix.

Gen is an extension of the Max MSP patching environment from Cycling'74. Gen converts what you build visually into efficient compiled code. And thanks to the OWL platform, patches made with gen~ can be seamlessly compiled and loaded onto hardware, such as the Lich Eurorack module, or Witch desktop synthesizer."

antimatter annihilation and modular synth


Giorgio Sancristoforo

"For the first time in history, antimatter is used for music.

All the sounds of this piece are triggered by positron annihilation from a Na22 source. For the task I've programmed a custom gamma spectroscope that outputs the annihilation gamma peaks at 0.511MeV, these pulses are sent in realtime to a MIDI to CV converter.

A positron is the anti-particle of the electron, having positive charge instead of negative. Positron emission is a special case of beta decay. Inside the unstable nucleus, a proton is transformed into a neutron, and in the process, the nucleus emits a neutrino and a positron.

As soon as the positron encounters an electron on its path, they attract each other and finally annihilate, transforming all their mass into energy (2 entangled gamma photons at 0.511MeV), following E=mc^2.

I'll film the process in the next weeks.
Use headphones for best listening experience.

Sound generation: Shuttle Endorphin.es synthesizer.
MCA software written on Cycling '74 Max/MSP

Dedicated to the memory of Iannis Xenakis."
