"Welcome to the first part of the modulör114 tutorial video series. Stév will lead you through the most important and the less known features of this modular synthesizer in the next few weeks!

In this installment, you will go through connection and powering up the unit in SYNTH! mode (internal normalization of a simple additive analog synth structure), check the oscillators, the mixer and all the signal path. Then you will start patching generators (like the LFO) to other modules (ENVelope), up to playing with the ribbon controller through the quantizer!"

ASMOC2019 (arches) + modulör114 + t-generator + t-spectrum + t-harmonic (new modules!!)

Published on Aug 16, 2019 Davide Mancini

"This is (more or less) the performance I did at this year’s ASMOC at Acusmatiq 2019.
The sound, sequences and wiggling comes all from the rig you see. One voice comes from the modulör (that also do the fx and the mixing of every other sources), two comes from the t-generator VCO (at the end passing through the t-spectrum processor) and the t-harmonic, 10 bands harmonic vco. The SD1 simpledrum supplies the percussive tones.
Enjoy."

Davide Mancini of Soundmachines.

Update:

(arches) stepsequencer modes playing the t-harmonic harmonic oscillator

Published on Aug 16, 2019 Davide Mancini

"A sequence from the stepsequencer plays the t-harmonic oscillator. T-harmonic self modulates the number of harmonics, tilt and odd/even parameters. (arches) stepseq is quite articulate, in this video you may observe many of its capabilities. At the end I also use the transpose function."

(arches) preset engine test. Preset#1: A Warm Place

Published on Nov 15, 2018 Davide Mancini

"Testing the last features before shipment of the (arches) universal tactile controller. While saving and retrieving the presets, I found by chance the exact scales and notes of NIN’s great ambient piece. Every sounds and effects comes from the MODULÖR in the backseat. The three strips on the right control the delay time, the noise amount on the main voice and the delay feedback.
Enjoy!"

Published on Jul 17, 2018 Davide Mancini

"(arches) flexing his arpeggiator muscles! Two arps are driving two voices on the Modulör114 and clocks the DS1drumstation. The KB3 lefthand keyboard strip position is modulating the filter cutoff AND the lfo amount to the pwm pf VCO1. KB1 drives a simple voice consisting in VCO2 and gated by one of the AddSub blocks that implements a proto-vca using the SLEW block as an attack-release envelope driven by the gate out of the (arches).
Toward the end some settings are tweaked on the (arches) arpeggiator menus, enjoy!!!!!"
