"All 4 channels of the Modcan 66B go into two Modcan 55B quantizers to provide CV and gates to 4 voices (Synth Tech VCOs, Moon VCFs, Oakley/Krisp14u VCAs, Club Of The Knobs EGs, and Strymon + Lexicon effects. Recorded on iPad Pro."

MeloDICER With New MEX3 MIDI Expander Playing Both Eurorack Voices And Alesis NanoPiano

video upload by John L Rice

"The meloDICER’s analog output goes into a Synth Tech E102 Quad Temporal Shifter for my typical four voice Eurorack patch and the meloDICER is also sending out MIDI via the MEX3 MIDI expander to an Alesis NanoPiano. At the beginning you are hearing only the Eurorack voices and then I turn up the volume of the NanoPiano and by the end I’ve turned off the Eurorack voices and just the sound from the NanoPiano synth remains. #modularsynth #electronicmusic #eurorack"

Trickledown Modular Tetris - A Quick Test After Filling The Holes

video upload by John L Rice

"Another quick test after changes. This is another side affect of the @vermonagear MEX3 coming out, because when making changes to my briefcase system I ended up stealing the @4ms_company Wav Recorder from this system for it, so I had to fill in the left over 6hp of space with something else. 😅🤓 I put in the @division6labs Mix VI and @noiseeng Clep Diaz."

Self Playing Eurorack Pipe Organ Patch

video upload by John L Rice

"A relatively simple and mostly self playing eurorack patch that sounds somewhat like a church pipe organ performance? A single Synth Tech Circuit Bent VCO "played" by the Vermona meloDICER pattern generator sequencer with the Strymon Megneto delay in the Pitch Shift setting giving it size and magic as I manually adjust the Wet and Repeats knobs. Additional modules used: Erica Synths Octasource LFO, Happy Nerding MMM VCF, Klavis Quadigy EG, Xaoc Devices Praga VCA/mixer, Circuit Abbey Unify mixer, ADDAC ADDAC812A meter.

Ligeti - Musica ricercata: No.7 - Cantabile | arr. for theremin & analog synthesizers

video upload by Grégoire Blanc

"This wonderful piece by György Ligeti is part of the famous 'Musica ricercata' suite for solo piano. This seventh movement has a very interesting feature: the supporting ostinato and the melodic lines are totally decorrelated. I would like to propose here an interpretation which leverages this very aspect, involving two sides of electronic music I enjoy equally. Expressivity with the theremin and haken continuum for the singing lines. Sequencing, patching, tone-shaping with analog synthesizers (@MoogSynthesizers ) for the motor-like background.

Instruments featured: Moog Etherwave Theremin, Mother-32, Subharmonicon, DFAM, Haken Continuum Fingerboard, and my favorite red pullover."

"Mostly Mos-Lab modules with one each from Synth-Werk, STG Soundlabs, Grove Audio, Club Of The Knobs, GRP Synthesizer, Tall Dog Audio, and Moon Modular."

Yes, He Lied, Just One More Test Of This Folding Modular Synth!

video upload by John L Rice

"The only sound source is the Dove Audio WTF oscillator and it’s being controlled by an SSL The Matrix sequencer, SSL Clock Divider, Free State FX Digital Utilities, and Martin Jan Koehler Tidal Modulator. The two outputs of the WTF each go to voicing patch consisting of a Happy Nerding Fun VCF, Free State FX Dual Trigger Processor, and one channel of a Grove Audio G714 Quad VCA. Reverb is from the Yamaha MG10XU mixing board."

SSL/YuSynth Clock Divider Module Works Better With Improved Power Supply

video upload by John L Rice

"I recently finished installing an internal PowerOne PSU to replace the two small external ones I had been using in this system and replaced the DotCom style power harness with an Analog Craftsman acBus distribution board. I had previously moved out the Synthetic Sound Labs / YuSynth clock divider because the The Matrix sequencer from SSL didn’t seem to work with it so I put the SSL V-Gates module in its place, but I missed the playability of the rotary selector switches so I tried it again and now it works! 🥳 Apparently the small MeanWell power bricks could supply enough current or high enough voltage for it to work? 🤷‍♂️

This was just a quick test to make sure it was working well. Besides the SSL divider and sequencer the other modules used are a Martin Jan Koehler Tidal Modulator (a 5U port of Mutable Instruments Tides), a Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Magnus VCO, and a Digital Utilities module from Free State FX (a 5U port of Ornament and Crime module). Also the case is a modified Synthesizers.com Box11 and the right angle patch cables are from Tendrils Cables. (thanks Dan! 😎🥰)
