Eowave ORAGE | VCO with thru-zero FM

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Eowave sent me an Orage to check it out. It means 'Storm' in French and refers to magnetic storms. I have no idea how they sound, but they're coming from the Sun and they can cause black-outs and lots of electronic trouble. It really triggered my imagination. It's a small analog VCO with loads of outputs and PWM, but the best part is the thru-zero FM. I patched it up with the Fluctuations Magnetiques and I was recording a video before I knew it. I don't think I'd got one based on the specs, but this is a hidden Eurorack gem. Obviously you'll need a second (simple) oscillator to get the most from it."

Eowave News for Superbooth 2018

via Eowave

"Superbooth 18 starts in less than one week and we can't wait to show you our new prototypes and synths!

We will be at booth number O236, come by to say hi :)

More over we will introduce our new products on Friday the 4th, 3:20pm at the Cinema (o120).

"This year will be about the Quadrantid Swarm release - we are actually waiting for the final product to come back from production.

Saddly we won't have the final version with us during the Superbooth.

It will feature the addition of a new cv input for the control of the Spread parameter of the oscillator, and a switch between decay and release for the envelope.

Oscillator modes have changed too!

We will start shipping the QS during the month of June."

"The real new player in the game is SWING, a pretty simple but life changing module that is going to give life to your sequencer!

Swing is a voltage controlled clock delay with 3 modes. Your sequencers are going to love it."

NAMM 2018: eowave - Capsule Titan MK2, Swing und Orage Eurorack Module

Published on Jan 26, 2018 KEYBOARDS

Storm For Stu

"Made this jam over the course of two days for Stu over @ Eowave. ALL sounds are sourced from an Eowave Orage. The only effects that were used are delay from an Alright Devices Chronoblob and reverb from an Intellijel Springray on the arpeggiated chords. Everything else is the raw Eowave Orage being manipulated by either a Happy Nerding FM Aid, Stillson Hammer MKII or a Mannequins Just Friends. An Eowave Centre de Controle performed the MIDI and trigger duties. An Intellijel Quadra performed envelope duties.

All sounds were compiled and arranged in Ableton Live. Some sounds were reversed and spread out in the stereo field. No filters or EQ except for a mix/master rack in Ableton for final mixing.

I wanted to keep the sounds as pure as from the source as possible :)

Hang up your hangs ups and let your hearts be happy!"

"Build lapse and short demonstration of our new touch sensor based module, Bend. Featured in this video is the our Orage M-1 and DIY sequencer. For most of the video the Bend is modulating the Orage VCO directly. At 1.37 I change I move the output of the Bend to mod1 input on the fluctuations magnétiques filter. At 2.47 I change the patch again moving the output of the Bend to modA input of the filter"

Eowave Fluctuation Magnetique Quad Filter Eurorack Module

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This quad multimode filter has been designed to simulate the action of magnetic fluctuations on the sound landscape.

The effects of ionization variations are modified by the different filters cutoff frequencies and the way they are synced.

Fluctuations Magnétiques (magnetic fluctuation) is a module from the modular synthesizer Orage Magnétique. This quad filter combines 4 independent multi-mode filters with selectable low-pass, band-pass & hi-pass. Each filter can be synced to one another to build to a 48dB low-pass/hi-pass filter or 24dB band-pass.

Each filter has a modulation input and an individual output to create stereo effects a well as quadriphonic textures. The filters A & B and C & D can be used in parallel mode or serial mode.

Features

4 Multi-Mode Filters in one module
LP, BP & HP modes
Stereo and Quadraphonic possibilities
Parallel and Serial modes
CV input for each filter
Individual Output for each filter
Cutoff/Resonance controls for each filter"

Happy New Year! The Year in Synths 2013

Happy New Year Everyone!

What a busy year it has been in the world of synths.

This is going to be one doozy of a post, so bear with me. This post is a review of the year in synths for 2013. We begin with Tributes to Those We Lost This Year, followed by New Manufacturers & Makers, Older Manufacturers Added to the Site, New Gear Announcements, Top 10 Posts by Traffic,  My Standout Posts for the Year, and finally This Years' Synth Events. I did my best to keep things as short and concise as possible.

Let's begin with the hardest part of the post.

Tributes to Those We Lost This Year

RIP Bernard Parmegiani - Electronic & Acoustic Composer
Lou Reed RIP
RIP Dick Raaymakers aka Kid Baltan
RIP George Duke - DreamWeaver
RIP Ralph Dyck, Sept 28, 1941 – May 20, 2013
RIP Ray Manzarek

All missed and never to be forgotten. Take a moment to remember them.

New Manufacturers & Makers

Starting last January, I decided to keep a running list of every new manufacturer and maker introduced to the site during the year.  This is something I haven't done before and I thought it would be interesting to see how many there were in the year.   It's easy to focus on the big synth announcements throughout the year, but what about all the new makers and brands? I shouln't have to go considerably into the significance of new designers on the scene, so I'll just say two things regarding them.  One, the number of new makers is a direct reflection on the interest in our scene, and two, these are the creators of new gear which directly translate into new designs not previously available to us.  Think about that for a moment.  These are makers and designs that did not exist before.  They are part of our synth history.  So what is the total count of new synth designers for the year? A whopping 113. Think about that a bit. One hundred and thirteen new synth designers and brands this year alone.

Here they are (note a handful date back to 2012, but 2013 marked their momentum and availability):

"A very short (and shaky and grainy and noisy) video of the mighty Eowave Metallique speaker system from the MusikMesse 2013: a suspended ride cymbal with a speaker/transducer who is amplifying the signal from Eowave Persephone. Pure magic with Martenot heritage... Sorry for the bad video quality."

"Enregistré lors de la rencontre Modularsquare dédiée à Eowave et leur tout nouveau synthétiseur modulaire "Orage Magnétique". Ce son a été capturé directement à la sortie du modulaire, sans FX ni traitement supplémentaire.

Notez que cet extrait a été enregistré pendant que les utilisateurs exploraient la section "noise" du synthétiseur, ce qui explique les consonances "bruitistes" de cet enregistrement, qui ne représente qu'une toute petite parcelle de ce que l'Orage Magnétique est capable d'offrir.

Googlish:
"Recorded at the meeting dedicated to Modularsquare Eowave and new modular synthesizer "Magnetic Storm". This sound has been captured directly to the output of modular FX or without further processing.

Note that this clip was recorded while users exploring the "noise" of the synthesizer, which explains sounding "noisy" this recording, which represents only a small portion of what is capable Magnetic Storm offer.

Live Improvisation (test for my future album) NightBirds 06.02.2013

Published on Feb 6, 2013

Ceci me sers de test pour avancer sur mon projet d'album qui sortira cette année.
Pour le moment je travaille sur la configuration de mes machines donc rien de précis pour l'instant.
Je cherche à retrouver mes anciennes configurations que j'avais dans mon ancien studio afin de finaliser l'ensemble de mon travail.
Chose pas toujours facile, mais avec le courage je retrouve la force d'antan :)

Pour cette vidéo j'ai enregistré tout l'ensemble en temps réel ...
Tout au long de la vidéo l'image s'assombrit car, il y a eu un orage à l'extérieur ... donc aucun artifice n'a été utilisé et ceci est indépendant de ma volonté !

Pour cette improvisation j'ai utilisé :

* KORG PS 3100 (analog polyphonic) : introduction avec sonorité de modulation et son ambiant.
* RSF Kobol (analog mono) : solo d'improvisation.
* RSF Polykobol (analog polyphonic) : séquence hypnotique.
* ROLAND System 100 - 2x 102 modules (analog monophonic semi-modular) : son métallique aléatoire. Utilisation du 'Sample & Hold' sur les deux modules avec improvisation.
