Nibbler Bassline | Schlappy Patching with Stazma


video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"Episode 5 for Schlappy Patching!
In this one I'm going to show you how to use the "clock divider" patch from the Nibbler manual, but at audio rate, to generate some funky basslines that are always in tune with your main VCO!
I'm also going to patch a big fat kick drum and a sidechain circuit using Interstellar Radio, 100 Grit and a few Boundary to go with these basslines.


It's going to be fun!"

00:00 Intro
00:51 Nibbler science
02:20 Let's patch the bassline
08:00 Let's patch a kick drum
09:53 Let's patch a sidechain (and jam)
12:47 Let's make the bassline an arpeggio
13:35 End tlak and more jam

HEARTBEATS - The Knife (BRiES cover) / Schlappi Engineering THREE BODY


video upload by BRiES

"THREE BODY by Schlappi Engineering takes care of 100% of the bass arpeggio in this video (aka the main synth). It's very interesting to be able to get all this grit without losing the ability to turn it down for a less harsh sound and without having to worry about relative pitches of your carrier and modulators. No processing was done to the audio coming from THREE BODY afterwards (apart from some low and mid cut EQ and a smidge of compression).

The sequencing for the bass (and part of the higher pitched arp and hihats) is done with eurorack sequencers, I recorded the main part in one take (which I recorded). The poly synth stabs were created with my own plugin PLL-102 (which you can buy as part of my VST pack 'SYNTHS one' on the Decent Sampler webshop).

There's no play-back going on in this video, everything you see happening was recorded live and used unaltered (apart from gentle eq, some compression and autotune - Melda Productions MPitch - for the vocals).

Your boi BRiES takes care of 100% of the singing (which I autotuned in this version of the upload) so be prepared for some vocal cringe.

I spent most of my birthday recording the audio and video for this cover. It's something that I've been wanting to do for a long time (recording a cover where the main part is taken care of by a eurorack system). The song 'heartbeats' (the José Gonzales version) popped into my head a few days ago and I just had to give it a try.

To whom it may concern:This is a cover of the song 'Heartbeats' by The Knife. This video isn't monetized nor is it sponsored (no one is making money off of this video). All rights to the song and lyrics are reserved to The Knife."

Korg opsix- Dream vs Nightmare, external modular processing for a simple organ-like patch


video upload by Friendly Noise

"Modules: Xaoc Tallin, Schlappi Engineering 100 Grit and Angle Grinder, SSF Vortices, Intellijel Quadrax.
No eurorack: Strymon Nightsky

Preset used: 014 Ambi Sines. Internal filter and effects are off. The monophonic output goes into Xaoc Tallin for level raising and then the signal goes to 100 Grit for filtering and distortion. The output from 100 Grit goes into the Angle Grinder, where it gets splitted using the dedicated output for low pass and high pass filtering. The splitted signals go to two mono channels of Vortices. The panning of those two channels is modulated with channels 1 and 2 of Quadrax in LFO mode (but not from the beginning of the video). The idea is similar to what a Leslie does, but not trying to emulate the sound. Channels 3 and 4 of Quadrax are also in LFO mode and modulate the filter frequency of 100 Grit and Angle Grinder. Finally, Nightsky adds some ambient reverb. No sequencing or arpeggio were used, but sometimes the intermodulation of oscillator frequencies and harmonics would let you think there is some sequencing."

Befaco Noise Plethora Demos by Friendly Noise



Playlist:

1. “Befaco Noise Plethora - Azatoth’s flutes” by Friendly Noise
This is my first video with the Befaco Noise Plethora, a triple digital noise generator with also three analog multimode filters, offering plenty of flexibility to shape the sound.

Modules: Befaco Noise Plethora, Befaco Rampage, SSF Vortices, Intellijel Quadrax, Intellijel Planar, Xaoc Kamieniec, Xaoc Tallin, Qu-bit Data Bender.
+
Strymon Nightsky reverb

2. “Noise Plethora 02 - Sequencing Programs” by Friendly Noise
The programs of Noise Plethora can be sequenced manually or using the CV inputs for each channel. That greatly adds to the sonic variations of the module.

Modules: Befaco Noise Plethora, Befaco Rampage, IOLabs Flux, SSF Vortices, Intellijel Quadrax.
+
Strymon Nightsky reverb

3. “Noise Plethora 3 - Drum Kits” by Friendly Noise
Because Noise Plethora is a triple noise generator, you can set up some drum kits using only this module. Clever use of modulation for the sound parameters, filter settings and (external) envelope shapes can results in many different sounds from just only one Noise plethora “drum kit”. :-)

Patch notes are included in the video.

Schlappi Engineering 100 Grit // Eurorack filter, VCA, distortion & feedback noise instrument


DivKidVideo

"Here we have the fantastic solo noise instrument, characterful filter (clean or distorted), VCA, feedback machine and more … the 100 Grit from Schlappi Engineering.

The 100 Grit is a 4 pole low pass filter with two inputs we can push into soft character saturation, multiple modulation points including a novel set of brass ball touch points and output VCA. There’s a clean and distorted output with additional 100x gain switch we can be performed as a momentary switch as well. Throughout the module there’s normalised feedback from different points of the circuit routing different filter pole outputs to CV the output VCA, distortion circuits points to the inputs of filter modulation all of which give a series of unique and interactive tone shaping options."

See this post for additional details on the Schlappi Engineering 100 Grit. See this post for an interview with Eric Schlappi, and see here for additional demos. See the dealers on the right for availability.

Podcast 307: Eric Schlappi


Published on Dec 22, 2019 20Objects

"There are a few modules that have been quietly creeping into discussions - and modular rigs - over the last few months. One manufacturer that keeps coming up is Schlappi Engineering - and especially the Angle Grinder module. I'm not sure how you make a quadrature oscillator sexy - but Eric Schlappi seems to have done it!

In this chat, we go over Eric's background, how he came up with some of his modules, some of the technologies that he's exploring for the future, and his own music-making (and performing) process. His modules are opinionated (in that they have design decisions that can drive you in certain directions), but in a way that can still allow you to maintain your own voice. He also talks about his own obsession with analog monosynths, and how this has influenced his own electronics development.

In addition to his modules, you can check out some of his recorded work on his Bandcamp site (https://ericschlappi.bandcamp.com/). Also, for Tier 2 (and above) Patreon supporters (https://www.patreon.com/darwingrosse), we have an extended interview about the performative aspects of the 100 Grit that is particularly interesting.

Enjoy!"

Schlappi 100 Grit Eurorack Module


100 Grit Demo (overview/basics) Published on Aug 14, 2019 SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING


via SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"Available with either silver aluminum or black PCB panel!

The 100 Grit is a touch controlled distortion unit inspired by the output section of a vintage synthesizer. Sonically it can range from subtle tone shaping to complete sonic obliteration depending on the positions of the knobs and output chosen.

The 100 Grit consists of a low pass filter, VCA and distortion section with 8 touch points, voltage control over drive, resonance, and frequency, along with a plethora of feedback paths allowing it to operate as a hands-on performance instrument with or without any input.

The touch points enable touch controlled resistive patching between the cv points (gain, frequency, and resonance), sensitive points in the distortion circuit, and different distortion outputs for a mix of touch controlled audio rate modulation and crackle box-like noise freak outs.

The low pass filter is a 24dB self-oscillating transistor ladder type with a jumper selectable resonance compensation scheme allowing more bass and volume at higher resonance settings.

The VCA is an OTA based circuit, which when pushed past 75% will impart a soft distortion characteristic, turning a triangle wave into a sine before being finally driven into a square wave close to max. If the levels are kept lower it is a reasonably clean vintage-style output section.

The distortion circuit is driven by the VCA, allowing for a voltage controlled gain amount and goes from heavy to extreme, especially when the x100 gain switch is engaged or the various self-modulation/feedback paths are utilized. The circuit is loosely based on a headphone amplifier circuit cranked into instability and self-oscillation.

Each Audio and CV input is normalized to a different feedback path, allowing for wild, self-oscillating distortions and extensive tone control with no external CV applied, or full control from external sources."

BRUTAL DISTORTION from 100 Grit by Schlappi Engineering // Superbooth 2019


Published on May 14, 2019 DivKidVideo

"The new 100 Grit from Schlappi Engineering may be a Moog style ladder filter at the core but it certainly doesn't sound anything like the deep rich low pass filtering you'd expect from a Moog synth. It's brutal distortion, performance switching and touch plates add noise, self patched chaos options and more for harsh noise and driven distorted processing."
