VSL Multi Product Demo : VCF-74 Mk2 ; D-ENV ; VCO-2

Published on Jan 25, 2018 Vintage SynthLab

"Vintage Synth Lab Eurorack modular synth product demo for the VCF-74 (mk2), D-ENV, and the VCO-2 (prototype phase).
In this video, we have our Beatstep Pro sending two separate sequences to the two independent oscillators of the VCO-2 (prototype dual CEM3340 oscillator), and the two independent D-ENV (Delayed Env Generators). The two D-ENV modules are sending envelopes to each VCO voice's VCF and VCA simultaneously, and respectively.

Note: the D-ENV is expected to start shipping in early February, while the VCO-2 is in prototype phase. We will be developing the next phase (as a likely production candidate) of our VCO-2 during the first half of 2018."

I believe this is the first post to mention the VCO-2. The VCF-74 Mk2 and D-ENV have been featured in previous posts. See the Vintage Synth Lab label directly below for more.

Vintage Synth Lab : D-ENV

Published on Dec 31, 2017 Vintage SynthLab

"The D-ENV is two modules in one. A utility and effect, for both module functions. A standard exponential analog envelope generator (AR/ADSR), plus a Delayed Gate / Trigger & Gate-Hold with independent access to all both module functions, yet linkable via the push of a front panel switch--in order to route either a Delayed Gate or Delayed Trigger to the inertial AR/ADSR as initial EG triggering or additional "re-trigger" of the AR/ADSR function."

"Use of both the AWM-3 (analog waveshaping, compressor, mixer module), and VCF-74 (analog dual voltage-controlled filter module)."

AWM-3 Demo #5 : Stereo Chorus effect with wavefolding and matrix-mixing

Published on Mar 25, 2017 Vintage SynthLab

"The AWM-3 is not just a mixer and wavefolder. It's ability to uniquely wave shape signal in realtime as a pure analog waveform processor, defined compression for more wave-shaping possibilities, and a set of all matrix-mix combinations as dedicated buffered outputs create wonderful, lush, stereo chorus effect when external modulation sources are applied to the CV inputs."

"Eurorack modular jam running two VCF-74 filters (based on the 1970s mini-korg filter circuit). One is being modulated from LFOs synced to a clock divider (driven by the Beatstep Pro clock output) and the other VCF-74 has white noise through it, with its LP cutoff modulated by each snare trigger via a S&H (random step generator)."

1. AWM-3 Demo #1 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module introduction to wave shaping

"First video to introduce the AWM-3 16hp Eurorack modular wave-shaping mixer. An essential tool and utility combined that will give you real-time analog signal processing and the ability to produce new and unique sounds. The AWM-3 is a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. This video shows the basic setup for wave-folding."

2. AWM-3 Demo #2 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module compression feature

"The second demo for the AWM-3, a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. In this video, we demonstrate the compressor feature."

3. AWM-3 Demo #3 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module LFO modulation to wave shaping

"The third demo for the AWM-3, a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. This video shows one example of connection external modulation sources (LFOs in this case) and applying them to each wave-fold bias (CV input) for each wave-fold stage while in a triple-wave-fold configuration."

"AWM-3 - Analog Wavefold Mixer

Analog Wavefold Mixer Eurorack Module in 16HP

$279.00

The AWM-3 is an all analog, real-time, complex wave-shaping (triple wave-folder) 3-channel mixer module with added features of compression and multiple mix modes including matrix mixes. The combination of multiple access points (outputs of various mixes), wave-folding, and compression allow for an extremely wide array of signal processing, including complex chorus-like sounds.

All three channels are identical and can operate independently. They can also be cascaded (connected in series) to obtain double and triple wave-folding. The compressor at the front-end of each channel allows for not only unique wave-shaping, but the ability to send asymmetrical wave-shaped signals through multiple wave-fold stages while preserving a better managed signal process.

With individual outputs for each channel, a master mix (and master level control), as well as three matrix mix outputs as: “MIX 1+2” (1 OUT + 2 OUT), “MIX 2+3” (2 OUT + 3 OUT), “MIX 1+3” (1 OUT + 3 OUT), the AWM-3 is wave-shaper, signal processor, and multi-mode mixer.

"Three VCF-74 modules...

1) First VCF-74: White Noise in, with LP cutoff modulated by S&H, which is triggered/clocked by snare hit trigger

2) Second VCF-74: Main VCO (bass line), with LP cutoff being modulated by a mix of S&H and Sqaurewave (both clock divided-driven)

3) Third VCF-74: Secondary VCO (lead synth line), ran through EH Cathedral Reverb pedal."

MODE MACHINES SL-1 Synthlab

video of it in action here
"The SYNTHLAB uses a 100% true analog circuitry with subtractive synthesis which is designed in a classic way. This design is not new because it started in the early 70´s with the voltage controlled modular systems. The use of the low pass filter based on the transistor cascade lets the synthlab sound very similar to the well known early Moog synthesizers.

As the SYNTHLAB has a built in MIDI interface you will find it easy to integrate into any MIDI studio setup. The SYNTHLAB also has a built in MIDI-TO-CV/GATE interface which can become very handy, when using vintage equipment. The SYNTHLAB is a hand-made true discrete analogue synthesizer built in Germany. We have used components from the 70s and 80s but also modern technology. There are no DSP´s or such built in, so the sound is true, pure and very experimental like a smal synthesizer laboratory - hence the name: SL-1 SYNTHLAB.

The setup of the SL-1 is very easy-to-use if you have played around with other anlogue synthesizers. Every parameter has its own pot for controlling and playing with the modulation and everything can be controlled manually in real-time. The controls of the modules are diveded into groups on the frontplate so they can be visually seperated for easier use. For basic setup you have 2 VCO´s and an external audioinput. The selected signal can be routed through the VCF and VCA before it reaches the audiooutput. For each VCF and VCA you have an own envelope generator. Additonally you have various modulation routing possibilities through the LFO´s.
