BAF 2024: EarthQuaker Devices - Wave Transformer
video upload by sonicstate
"At BAF 2024 Sonic State had the opportunity to speak with Karl from EarthquakerDevices about their latest release, The Wave Transformer oscillator. This complex single oscillator is fully analog and features a unique wave shaping circuit called Transform. Unlike traditional wave folders, Transform breaks the waveform apart, applies voltage math, and reassembles it on the output, resulting in an asymmetric crumpled waveform with added harmonics. The Wave Transformer offers seven different outputs and nine inputs, providing plenty of versatility for modulation and sound design.
The Wave Transformer also offers both hard and soft sync options, each providing their own sonic flavours, and by utilizing bipolar signals, users can achieve different sync sounds and even create filtering effects.
The Wave Transformer is available now. Price 199 USD"
"The Wave Transformer is an analog, vintage-voiced, voltage-controlled oscillator with over 8 octaves of accurate pitch tracking. It has 7 simultaneous wave outputs, including a unique Complex output.
The Transform control morphs from a basic waveform through many strange iterations into a complex, gnarled mass of audio mutations at the Complex output. You can yield countless variations on these permutations by combining this novel circuit with Hard Sync, Soft Sync, Linear FM and Exponential FM. Additionally, you can mute the source waveform to use the circuit as a harmonic gate/VCA, rendering The Wave Transformer a voice unto itself. If that is not enough, there is a Shape Insert that allows you to transform external oscillations and modular-level audio sources."

Special Cranker on synthesizers & drum machines - Earthquaker Devices
video upload by Stazma
"I'll be doing more fx pedals related content this year and I wanted to start by the last pedal I bought, the Special Cranker by @EarthQuakerDevices.
It's quite rare you find demos of overdrive type pedals with synths and drum machine even tho they might sound great on such devices. I'll try to fix that mistake today!"

Lisa Bella Donna's hidden sonic sanctuary
video upload by EarthQuakerDevices
"Join us as we take a detailed tour of Lisa Bella Donna's legendary home studio, Appalachian Recordings, deep in the Appalachian mountains of the eastern United States. Lisa is a longtime friend of Jamie Stillman’s since before the inception of EarthQuaker Devices in the early 90s, when they would play punk house shows together. Lisa is a renowned recording artist, composer, sound designer, modular synthesist and educator.
In this incredible episode of Show Us Your Junk, Lisa talks about her early inspirations that led her to start playing music, and eventually using electronic synthesis to craft the unique voice that she envisioned. After hearing Black Sabbath's “Paranoid” and Wendy Carlos's “Switched on Bach” and “Sonic Seasons,” it became clear that music was her destiny. Her stories include recording and editing commercial jingles in the 80s, selling her car to put a down payment on an Arp 2600 synthesizer, and discovering the rich characteristics of recording to 8-track tape.
While this studio packs in a ton of rare gear, Lisa claims she doesn’t consider herself a collector. “My choices are very utilitarian; pretty much everything in here is here for a purpose, and it’s part of the big picture - the great stream of what my albums become,” she says. Some of her staple instruments include the ARP 2600, ARP Odyssey, ARP Omni, Mini Moog, and Fender Rhodes. EQD pedals she frequently uses include the Rainbow Machine, Arpanoid, and Grand Orbiter, but her favorite EQD pedal is the Avalanche Run. She loves it so much that she had a custom rack mount version built, which is patched directly to her main console. “It's one of my favorite reverbs still - one of my most used for sure.”
Lisa has an interesting perspective when it comes to connecting music to visual concepts in nature and her environment. “When I compose music, I see it just as much as I hear it. I look at my arrangements as landscapes or deep woods mountain paths with all the textures and colors of the elements that surround it,” she says. This all makes sense when you see the picturesque plot of land in which she chose to settle down to build her studio and raise her daughter.

moog DFAM + korg Monologue
Published on Jun 2, 2018 sprunging for voltage
"Here is a quick video of a simple melody played on the Monologue, which is going thru the Avalanche Run v2. The DFAM lends bass and percussive elements and goes thru the EHX Canyon delay to apply a lo-fi grit here and there. The korg SQ-1 is clocking the DFAM and modulating some DFAM parameters, such as Noise for the Snare sound. Additional delay is provided by a korg KP3. Enjoy.

Roland Boutique SH-01A sound demo
Published on Sep 29, 2017 ollilaboratories
"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG
I have had the privilege to try out the new Roland Boutique SH-01A boutique synth. I have never owned an SH-101 myself, I have played them a couple times but not really spent any significant amount of time with them the last 15-20 years or so.
I know this is a classic synth, and I can understand why because this puppy just screams to be played and sequenced to the max and it sounds really really great.
A few words on the video/demo format. There are loads and loads of videos and demos out there already, and my take on this noodle sound demo session is to show you a bit how i work with synths when designing sounds. So there will not just be dry signals, you will hear and see some of my favorite effects paired up with the SH-01A whenever I find a sound that works for me.
So no deep dive into features, it is just me playing and the SH-01A doing what it does best, eg being really fun and inspiring synth.
Yes ! it is both monophonic, polyphonic AND you can run all voices in unison for some extra wide and fat leads. I don't do unison in this video though since it was way too loud, sorry for that.. but trust me, its fat :D
I tried to blend the playing with FX to a level so that the dry parts were audible as well, but as you know i like my FX so it tends to be a bit more wet at times :) If you have any questions let me know.
FX (from left to right, connected in series) .. audio out from SH01A in mono to SolidGoldFX imperial (fuzz), EarthQuakerDevices Space spiral (modulated delay), Catalinbread CSIDMAN (granular delay), tc electronic ditto X2 (looper), Strymon el Capsitan (tape echo), Strymon blueSky (reverb) -- to mixer and 2 track. The track is slightly normalized to keep some of the peaks under control, else what you see is what you hear.

EarthQuaker Devices Bit Commander Guitar Synthesizer
YouTube Uploaded by EarthQuakerDevices on Jun 10, 2011
"A brief demo showing the basic functions of the Bit Commander. Video and animation by Jeff France, Guitar by Jamie Stillman, Pedal by EarthQuaker Devices. Learn more at www.earthquakerdevices.com"
via this auction
"The Bit Commander is a monophonic analog guitar synthesizer with four octaves of vintage square wave synth tones. It’s no-nonsense interface makes it easy to add or subtract octaves to create a wide variety of sounds without having to dial in envelopes or oscillators. Ripping sub-octave thump, pulsing octave down, a lightly squared base tone and a swelling transformer based octave up all join together to make a single guitar sound like an army of olde tyme synths.
Like all analog octave effects, there are some basic rules to follow that will get you the most enjoyment from your Bit Commander. Use the neck pickup and play single notes. The best tracking occurs from the 7th fret up on all the strings. Below the 7th will still track but there will be occasional glitches and stutters. The lower the note, the harder it is for the Bit Commander to register. The use of Bass and lower registers on keyboards will yield unexpected, sometimes pleasing, sometimes disgusting results. These are not mistakes or flaws, it is the nature of analog octaves.
Controls:
Sub: Two octaves down level
Down 1: One octave down level
Up 1: One octave up level
Base: Squared input signal level
Level: Master volume
Filter: Tone control, more highs clockwise, more warmth counter clockwise
Analog, true bypass and hand made one at a time in the republic of Akron Ohio."
