Joranalogue Audio Design PIVOT 2 / first patches and exploration

video upload by BRiES

"In this very first video with a pre-production unit of PIVOT 2 by Joranalogue Audio Design I experimented with a few different ways in which the clever signal router can be used to route signals to and from each other. PIVOT 2 is also suited to transition smoothly between serial, parallel or inverted serial processor chaining. I use PIVOT 2 as a voltage controlled panner, to crossfade between two modulators and to create feedback paths. Lastly I use the module as a simple VCA.

I'm in the process of learning how to work with Final Cut Pro so please don't mind the video fx and unelegant video and text transitions."

Joranalogue Audio Design ROUTE 4 / DELAY 1 / exquisite tracking / stacking and alternating gates

video upload by BRiES

"ROUTE 4 by Joranalogue Audio Design takes care of alternating between and mixing gates (several divisions of the clock). The top output of ROUTE 4 is then sent through a slew limiter which controls the frequency of a low pass filter (offscreen). When the gates get stacked/mixed (latch and multi) the amplitude of the envelope is higher then when the gates just alternate (solo), thus creating a lot of dynamic movement.
DELAY 1 is used as the voice that gets filtered. The pitch tracking on DELAY 1 is pristine.
PIVOT 2 alternates between 2 gate patterns for the kickdrum."

Eurorack Interfaces // Receive 2 & Transmit 2 from Joranalogue Audio Design

Published on Apr 18, 2019 DivKidVideo

"Shout outs to the birds outside my house! (you'll see what I mean) ... I wanted to make this video to highlight something that's really simple but I think an important part of a modular system.

In the video I go through the Receive 2 (RX2) and Transmit 2 (TX2) from Joranalogue Audio Design. They are a dual balanced XLR/Jack input pre amp and a stereo balanced output and headphone amp. Having quality interfacing and gain staging throughout the studio/stage is important for ensuring things work properly. Yes plugging a pedal or keyboard right into a Eurorack system will probably work but you'll be closer to the noise floor and further away from the expected levels and behaviours of modules. That can lead to a varied and unsatisfactory experience a lot of the time. I also wanted to dangle a microphone outside of my house and process some real world sounds to create a foley texture and alien landscape excited and led by the suburban environment."

Joranalogue Audio Design PIVOT 2 / feedback paths are fun but confusing

video upload by BRiES

"Feedback patches really confuse me. The left part of PIVOT 2 is going through a waveshaper while the right part is routed through a filter. The output of PIVOT 2 is going through that same filter (SVVCF).

I gave up trying to understand the signal flow (I resisted drawing it out) and just enjoyed the patch. Later in the video I add even more feedback routes between the Joranalogue Audio Design modules and the R*S Triple Waveshaper."

Joranalogue Audio Design DIM 2 / CV controlled dual dimmer (including LED lights) / a quick overview

video upload by BRiES

"This video is for anyone wondering about DIM 2, the new nifty cv controllable dual dimmer module by Joranalogue Audio Design... and yes: the module also includes the nice gooseneck LED lights you see in the video.

There's not a lot to tell about the module, yet I somewhow managed to talk about it for almost 18 minutes straight. You're totally welcome."

Joranalogue Audio Design PIVOT 2 / a few basic patches / variable signal router

video upload by BRiES

"In this video I approach PIVOT 2 by Joranalogue Audio Design a little bit more methodical.
First I send one sound into PIVOT 2 while using the send outputs as a left and right stereo pair. Then I send 2 sounds into the returns and use PIVOT 2 as a crossfading mixer. The last clip is a patch where both a wavefolder and a filter are connected to the send/return pairs on PIVOT 2, using the module to change the order of both processors (in - waveshaper - filter - out / parallel operation / in - filter - waveshaper - out)."

Joranalogue Audio Design / STEP 8 and ROUTE 4 are a match made in heaven

video upload by BRiES

"The newly announced ROUTE 4 by Joranalogue Audio Design is so very useful. I didn't think I would immediately like it this much. In this video I use it to transpose and change up a sequence from STEP 8, and it transforms the 8 step sequence into 16 step patterns. Very very cool."

Joranalogue Audio Design DELAY 1 / first patch

video upload by BRiES

"DELAY 1 by Joranalogue Audio Design is a 21st century revisioning of the classic BBD delay. It sure is clean as a whistle in terms of BBD whine and this is achieved by going supersonic with the clock-rates (as far as I understand). I'm not going to list all its features right now (I'll link the webpage below) because I still need to figure out what all the inputs and outputs exactly do, which is usually the case when I post a first patch video."

video upload by BRiES

"This is a video that I recorded a few months ago to share with my supporters. Keep in mind that some insights might be wrong, but of course the sounds are always up to date.

This was the caption for the video as I posted it privately on the 11th of may 2023: 'This is a messy first video with a few of the new Joranalogue Audio Design modules that they just announced yesterday. There's a 5 minute version of the jam at the end listed on youtube, but I wanted to share something more and up close with my supporters. So there you go. Please keep in mind that I haven't elaborately study ROUTE 4 (nor DELAY 1) so any insights could be wrong due to lack of thorough experimentation.'"

Joranalogue Audio Design DELAY 1 / a playthrough of all the features / a proper high-end BBD

video upload by BRiES

"In this not so extensive but still quite long video I walk you through all the features (and a few sounds) of DELAY 1 by Joranalogue Audio Design.

Don't think of it as a classic delay and even as a BBD delay it's still very unique because DELAY 1 has none of the whine but ten times the amount of inputs, outputs and knobs to tweak. It can be used to waveshape and combfilter, to create (stereo) chorus and flanger. It can be used as a voice by itself (with immaculate tracking) or as an all in one noise bass drone synth."

Joranalogue Audio Design x Hainbach / COLLIDE 4 / lock-in amp eurorack power / PLAYTHROUGH

video upload by BRiES

"In this video I demonstrate and try to explain the functionality of the powerhouse module that is COLLIDE 4. I split up the video into three chapters providing you with plenty of examples on how to use the different sections of the module seperately and together.

COLLIDE 4 is a collab between the Belgian electronical hi-tech wizardry team at Joranalogue Audio Design and German contemporary artist and mad audiolab scientist Hainbach. They teamed up to make a miniature version of a lock-in amplifier, a versatile test device that can be either used to hunt for subatomic particles or to make earth-shattering kickdrums and eery melody lines straight from a Kindergarten Horror flick. Joran decided that this wasn't enough of a flex so he added frequency shift functionality to the unit and don't ask me how he did it but he made the cleanest frequency shifter ever. COLLIDE 4 being all analog ciruitry that's one hell of a thing to do."

Joranalogue Filter 8 "the cutting edge in analogue VCF design"

Published on Aug 8, 2018 DivKidVideo

"TIMING INDEX / SECTIONS BELOW - Here's the new Filter 8 from Joranalogue. It's a VCA based filter topology similar to but not exactly an OTA design. It features a unique resonance circuit and (according to Joranalogue) is "the cutting edge in analogue VCF design". Now I can't talk specifics about the circuit but feature wise it certainly packs in a massive punch. 8 filter outputs including 1, 2, 3 and 4 pole low pass filters, a 1 pole high pass, unique band boost and notch, phase shifted output and 4 pole band pass. There's gain compensation to even out each output under self oscillation, we can freeze and hold the core of the module to effectively silence and halt the output or freeze (like a sample/track and hold) when it's producing it's own CV signals. The outputs turn to 8 phase shifted sine waves that tracks great as a multi phase oscillator or LFO and patching feedback means we can create a range of saw like waves with various exp. lin. and log. curves. We can drive the filter with the second input, or again with feedback, exponential and linear FM means we can get gorgeous rich formant throaty vocal tones under audio rate modulation or musical harmonious FM tones when using it as an oscillator. There's even more so I'll let the video do the talking.

TIMING INDEX / SECTIONS

00:00 hello, introduction and patch previews of what's to come

01:17 Feature walkthrough, going through bits of the manual, all the ins outs and controls.

03:26 Filter sweeps, 1, 2, 3 and 4 pole low pass, high pass, band boost and notch, phase shifted out and the band pass. Various resonances and output comparisons.

06:35 Using dual inputs to drive the filter

7:11 Dual inputs driving the filters. Sweeping through the responses.

08:40 Animating the filter. Using envelopes, sequences and gate patterns to modulate 1v/oct, exponential FM and resonance depth.

10:42 Filter rich layered and animated detuned sounds. This also looks at building up dynamic patterns and filter modulation.

13:41 Audio rate modulation of cut off and audio rate modulation of 'hold' for a sample and hold like "freeze". Similar to sync and downsampling FX.

16:28 Driving the filter with feedback. Creating clipping, saturation and non linear responses. At point digital-like phase modulation / phase distortion overtones appear.

20:09 Phase shifter! Using the phase shifted output like a phase shifter effect. There's also audio rate resonance depth modulation in this patch.

21:56 A short acid break. Patching up some 3 pole 18dB per octave low pass patches for a little bit of an acidic filter pattern.

22:48 Filter Pings. Using the ping input to excite the filter core. Create melodic lines, deep bass, percussion and linear FM tones.

25:42 8 phase oscillator. Using the oscillating filter as a sine oscillator. Glassy and harmonious FM tones under modulation.

27:20 Patching feedback over the oscillating sine to create new wave shapes. You can make a near perfect saw wave as well as other exponential and logarithmic ramp shapes as well as some odd comb like shapes.

28:19 8 phase voltage controlled LFO. Using multiple phases to create cascading modulation across a wider patch. As above with audio we look at feedback to make new LFO shapes too.

30:22 Slew limiting. As the filter works at sub audio rates we can use it slew a signal. Here we add glide by slewing a pitch sequence. We also add resonance for a way to inject wobble and vibrato into the pattern.

32:39 FM oscillator tones - a little musical break. We look at gated the hold on and off while this operates as an oscillator. This creates little clicky rhythms and breaks in the sequences we're using.

33:52 Resonating envelopes - using envelopes to excite the near oscillating core of the filter to create wobbles within the envelopes shape. We can also superimpose audio rate tones or LFOs into the envelopes too."
