SUPERBOOTH 2024: Ableton - Push

video upload by sonicstate

"At Superbooth 2024, Jesse from Ableton showcased the latest features of the PUSH playing together with synths. The focus has been on enhancing stability, fixing bugs, and integrating new functionalities. At the exhibition, Jesse delved into the realm of modular synthesis, demonstrating the intricate connections between PUSH and modular gear to craft unique musical compositions. By utilizing the expressive pads of *PUSH*, Jesse showcased how modular synths can be controlled and manipulated in real-time, offering a glimpse into the creative possibilities when combining these two technologies.

Jesse's setup featured a Trinity module by Modbap for drums, while showcasing the versatility of the* FH2 for CV generation and the *Expert Sleepers ES3 and ES6 for interfacing with modular gear. The integration of multiple voices, effects, and instruments highlighted the flexibility and power of combining the PUSH with modular synths.

Push Price: 879 GBP

Push Standalone Price: 1,669 GBP"

Modbap Per4mer Eurorack Effects Explanation and Jam by Trovarsi

Perfect Circuit

"Our friend Trovarsi came by to show us some of the sounds of the Modbap Modular Per4mer and explain how some of its features work. The Per4mer has four arcade buttons that switch on DJ style effects (delay, reverb, glitch and tape stop). There is also a color processor that gives everything you pass through it the sound of a digital sampler, or some saturation or a vinyl emulation. The Per4mer has a compressor that can do regular compression as well as sidechaining or compress a signal in time with a clock.

Of course since the Per4mer is a eurorack module you can trigger the effects with triggers instead of pushing the buttons, and you can control the knob settings with the CV inputs. The Per4mer is also stereo in and out!

Modbap TRINITY Overview - Drum Synths

Modbap Meridian Demo

video upload by Modbap Modular

"Meridian is what we call a "complex filter array." This isn't because it's hard to use. We take great pride in distilling complexity into a fun and performable user interface. It is a “complex filter array” because it has a harmonious set of features that let you create complex tones and uniquely interesting sounds. It's made to change the sound and tone of audio signals through a cleverly assembled set of features, such as an array of interrelated filter types, filter modes, phase shifting modulation, drive, and bit depth, which all work together to make complex soundscapes and textures.

The name Meridian represents the idea of a meeting point or a convergence of different elements. Filters are often used to blend, shape, and refine different sounds into a cohesive whole. Meridian is often represented through the idea of a barrier or a line that separates parts. This concept mirrors the way the filter delineates different frequencies and aural elements, generating a defined contrast that shapes the overall sound.

Modbap Trinity - Random Mode (w/ HUE and Per4mer)

video upload by Modbap Modular

"TRINITY is a 3 channel Digital Drum Synth Array packed into a 20hp eurorack synthesizer. Effectively, Trinity performs as 3 powerful drum voices packaged into one beastly drum module with a few tricks up its sleeve.

Trinity has several modes (Cycle modes and Stack modes) that extend its feature set. Here, we are demonstrating Random mode. Channel 3 is set to Random mode while a sequence of 16th notes triggers channel 3. Random mode is allowing channel 3 to randomly change the drum parameters of the chosen drum algorithm to create a new drum sound with every trigger.

Additionally, channel 1 & 2 are not in Random mode but they are triggered separately to add to the rhythm of the pattern.

Trinity is available to preorder now. Trinity ships in November of 2022."

Modbap Per4mer effects trails - AR Envelope Adjustments

video upload by Modbap Modular

"Can the Per4mer effects trail be adjusted? Of course. This is actually a day one feature. Each of Per4mer’s 4 effects has a built in AR (attack release) envelope. It’s adjustable from 5 ms to 5 s.

SHIFT + ARCADE BUTTON + Turn FX1 = adjust AR envelope attack

SHIFT + ARCADE BUTTON + Turn FX2 = adjust AR envelope release

If you really want to get creative, try these adjustments on any of the 4 effects. Try experimenting with the AR envelope on Glitch and Tape Stop with wet dry set to 50% or so for some really cool sound on sound effects."

Modbap Per4mer Performance FX [USER REVIEW + Demos] Eurorack

gstormelectro

"Audio and Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2020

Today I am giving a user review of the Per4mer FX module by Modbap Modular.
The Per4mer is a DJ-Style Quad FX module designed with Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, and Glitch music in mind.
But it also dishes up well for Trap, experimental, and ambient excursions for sure.
But is Per4mer worth the coin?
Is it the right module for you?
I will be giving some quick thoughts about the build, and dig into some beat and loop mangling.
At the end I give some concluding remarks weighing the pros and cons.
My videos are not sponsored by anyone.
I purchased this product with my own moolah.
So you can expect my own objective opinions and observations.

GEOSynths Synth Show Jams - Ep140 - With Dean from Electronisounds

video upload by GEOSynths

"Synthesizer Podcast - April 2022 Jams - With Dean from Electronisounds - Episode 140 @ 6pm UK (1pm EST) Sunday 24th April.

Dean from Electronisounds is a dedicated synth nerd, sound designer, YouTuber and multi-instrumentalist. The drums were his first instrument and that love of rhythm is clear in his music. He comes from an old school background of learning to produce before the days of the internet - which gave him a love for hardware gear. (Producing 100% in the box on computers was not an option in the early 1990’s, you needed to have actual hardware gear if you wanted to make electronic music.)

Using hardware led to a love of SAMPLING, which led him to start Electronisounds in 1994, where he began distributing his own sounds, loops and samples. Electronisounds was one of the first independent sample companies. Dean continues this passion for hardware gear today, making sound banks for modern day samplers, groove boxes and synthesizers.

He’s made over 250 sample packs, sound banks and preset banks, and has done sound design for several other companies such as: Eventide, Novation, Native Instruments, Vengeance, Modbap Modular and many more.

He started the Electronisounds YouTube channel in 2017 and has been sharing tutorials and music made with everything from iPads, to Modular Synths and Eurorack to Grooveboxes like the Digitakt and Akai Force. What’s next for Dean? More new sound banks and sample packs coming soon, of course!
