SERGE Modular Synthesizer MANTRA II Panel

video upload by fonitronik

"Sitting at the garden table playing the SERGE Modular/R*S MANTRA II panel. It is great what one can do with just one panel. One of the great things of the new slopes (GTO, GTS) is that they are VERY stable. And everything is exactly in tune after turning it on again after a few days. You will love it."

Serge Mantra II vs Keyboard

"Serge Mantra II controlled by its own Sequencer 8 and an external Microbrute for CV to get polyphonic chords using 4 oscillators (2 from GTO, TRI from GTS XL and a saw from the other GTS)."

Today i'll go with you on a guided tour of one of my (if not THE) favorite modular synthesizer in my collection: the Serge modular Mantra & TKB panel by Random*Source

@serge-modular

The Mantra is meant as a perfect intro to the world of Serge in 4U size (not eurorack format), and the TKB is a powerhouse of sequencing and interactive control. I'll just scratch the surface of what's possible with this combo but at least it should give you an idea of how you could use these.

Have fun!"

"Some sounds of the new Serge Mantra panel - simple patch using only the DSG XL as a complex audio oscillator - no wavefolders, waveshapers or filters used, recorded straight from the PEAK and TROUGH outputs which are used as a pseudo-stereo output."

John DuVal - Cassiopeia's Playground (2008)

"Earth Mantra is proud to bring you the long-awaited new release by reknowned analog synthesizer guru and electronic musician John DuVal.

For those who might not be familiar, John is the one-time owner of one of the largest Serge analog modular systems ever assembled, a system nicknamed Fist of God. We have seen pictures of this beast, and believe us when we say that the name is completely appropriate. John is widely regarded, both for his 2003 seminal analog modular epic entitled Hell's Canyon, which is very nearly the textbook example of a perfect analog modular sound painting, as well as for his work with ambient supergroup Dweller At The Threshold, and for his own solo music before that."
