"Headphones or a good pair of speakers recommended.
This is a live recording of me playing withy my modular.
I'm playing over two overlapping sequences, each with different measures.
This patch is quite simple, just a DPO drone, Bresnso going into a stereo filter (Popple) with Falistri used as double-envelope. Everything was driven by Fraptools Usta sequencer. Some randomness here and there using Fraptools Sapèl."
"In this jam we used the new Brenso oscillator from Frap Tools as the main synth voice, the 1010 Music Bitbox Micro is providing the drum samples and the sequencing is provided by the Make Noise 0-CTRL and ALM Pam’s New Workout.
The Brenso is a dual oscillator capable of frequency and amplitude modulation as well as the ability to sync the oscillators to each other. There is also a built in wave shaper that allows you to dynamically control harmonics. The wave shaper section can also be used as a VCA, this allows you to just add an envelope generator and have a complete synth voice. In this video we used the Frap Tools Falistri to generate envelopes to modulate the amplitude and FM amount. One of the patches uses a little bit of filtering from the new version of the Mutable Instruments Ripples. Using a sequencer like the 0-CTRL for this type of synth voice works well since you can control the pitch as well as other parameters. We also added some modulation with the XAOC Batumi quad LFO.
The drum sounds are all samples from the new 1010 Music Bitbox Micro which is a smaller version of the original Bitbox, even though it is smaller it still has 8 channels and is a good option to add sampling to your eurorack modular. The drums are sequenced by the Pam’s New Workout used as a clock divider.
A Classic Todd Barton's Krell Patch. The voice is the Make Noise DPO. The Sputnik Dual Oscillator Generator A in LFO provide the modulation voice. Parameters are modulated by Frap Tools Sapèl with Maths as primary and erratic clock source.
FUMANA EXPLORATION #5 (Kinda Hammond Tone)
A kind Hammond Tone. The 2 voices are the Make Noise DPO and Sputnik Dual Oscillator. Parameters are modulated by Frap Tools Sapèl with Maths as primary and erratic clock source.
FUMANA EXPLORATION #6
Maybe some Pink Floyd have take controls of the Fumana. The 2 voices are the Make Noise DPO and Sputnik Dual Oscillator. Parameters are modulated by Frap Tools Sapèl. The Fumana's VCAs Envelope are primary provided by Pamela's New Workout.
FUMANA EXPLORATION #7 (NO INPUT)
A NO INPUT Patch. Basically the ALL OUT is patched in the IN forcing feedback .... and a lot of reverb!
FUMANA EXPLORATION #8
Only the DPO this time. The pulsating Bass Drum Like sound is the DPO's generator A in LFO mode. Around 1'45" the original DPO sound is coming.
(Waves of) Demented Avengers
All is started with a sample of an old voice mail cassette.
In the beginning the sound are coming from the Frap Tools Fumana in feedback.
The melodic line is played by Frap Tools Sapèl quantize with the Ornament & Crime Quantermain Program on the Doepfer A-110-4
The effects on the Arturia DrumBrute are by Ableton Live 10.
Just That Dawn
First path with the Frap Tools Falistri as Movement Manager :) The Sputnik Dual Oscillator and the Make Noise DPO are spectral processed with the Frap Tools Fumana. Bowed sound by Braids. Random by Frap Tools Sapèl. Reverb and Delay on Ableton (Eventide Black Hole and Ableton Echo)
