Modular Synth - Koma Komplex + Circadian Rhythms Sequencers

Published on Mar 11, 2017 isvisible / isinvisible

"Here's me working on a new track. The main focus I guess is on the Tip Top Audio 'Circadian Rhythms' and the Koma 'Komplex' sequencers, and not forgetting the old workhorse, 'Pamela's Workout' by ALM. All of which work perfectly together.

Audio as follows:
Bass - WMD 'PDO'.
Plinky Plonk - Livewire 'AFG'.
A fairly passable lap steel guitar type sound - Mutable Instruments 'Rings'.
Percussion - Folktek 'Matter'."

"Virtually all the audio is being generated by the WMD Synchrodyne and it's expander.
Apart from percussive sounds from the Folktek Matter, Audio from the Music Thing Radio Music, and a touch from the MI Rings.

Various cv inputs of the Synchrodyne and Expand are being fed by the outputs from the Livewire Chaos Computer.

Various audio outs from the Synchrodyne and Expand are fed through the Reflex Liveloop Sampler, Mungo d0, Intellijel Springray, MI Rings, Modcan Dual Delay, an Accessit Stereo Reverb and a Roland DEP-3.

Meng Qi - Duet With Myself

Published on Sep 24, 2016 Meng Qi

"a self-contained eurorack system
instant and tactile like an acoustic instrument

1) hardwired connections between Folktek Matter and Meng Qi Seashore;

2) tonal / atonal audio from Skot Wiedmann HYVE / IFM Mr.Grassi, travels thru body into various points within Matter;

3) left/rightmost inputs on Seashores are equipped with jacks, thus touch-controlled external signal injection / feedback are convenient;

4)Meng Qi DPLPG provides smooth vactrol based voltage control of volume and tone;

5)Recovery Effect Cutting Room Floor offers pitch shifting looping / delay / faux reverb, and is sensitive to incoming volume;

6)bottom jacks on ADDAC Size Matter is connected to a D-Class amplifier, a hefty built-in surface transducer provides strong sound and vibrations to feel with body.

it went through a few revisions.
I hope it stays in the fine line between redundancy and scarcity, like a well designed standalone instrument.

New Folktek Conduit Eurorack Module & Matter Cards

via Folktek

"The long awaited Matter plug-ins and cards are finally here. They expand, direct or change the function of Matter and allow for a greater level of experimentalism and possibility. You'll discover that, though unlabeled, some of the trigger points can be used as audio inputs to allow for internal manipulation.

This is a two part system: First the plug-in inserts into the headers on Matter, then any one of the cards is inserted into the card slot. Understand that much of what the cards do can be accomplished by direct jumping and with the use of Resist.

Set 1 includes the main plug-in and 7 cards. Set 2, a new series of cards will come later in 2016

Matter Cards Set 1

Cards for Matter are finished. Finalizing and will be officially for sale in the next week. See the folktek site for more. Included with the set is the main (necessary) plug-in which inserts into the headers on the front panel, and 7 individual cards which easily and effortlessly insert into the plug in like giant SD cards. Each card has a specific purpose, direct, changes or adds function. Soot, Granules, Pebbles, Conduit, Sand, Dust, Moss"

"Conduit is a delay, filter, and 9 point harmonic oscillation module which creates three independent signal paths that can be inter-mixed how you like. It's also capable of jumping directly into the circuitry of Matter for processing. The root circuitry is based on the conduit desktop piece which is no longer in production."

Folktek = Conduit Matter Resound & Resist

Published on May 21, 2016 Sir Folktek

"A simple patch played live with four Folktek modules making something reminiscent of a 90's tune. All sounds from Folktek modules.

All beats by a simple 3 part Matter patch triggered by varigate4 with one part attenuated with Resist. Matter also sent into Conduit delay and filter.

Both clean and effected Matter sent to individual mixer channels.

All oscillations from Conduit with vactrols triggered by varigate4. Of the two oscillation paths; 1. two oscillations mixed on Resist, sent direct to mixer. 2. two oscillations mixed on Resist sent to Resound and then into a reverb with mix coming in and out.

Resound is the foundation of Conduit - a delay/filter without the added sections of Conduit. Conduit alone is capable of the same delay/filter."

Folktek Conduit being Conduit

Published on May 14, 2016 Sir Folktek

"Here is Folktek Conduit eurorack module, currently available on the folktek site: http://folktek.com/instruments/modula...

This is not intended to be a musical performance - just displaying the sound of the module.
What's happening?
First, there are three signal paths to Conduit:
- A simple Matter beat (created by 3 varigate4 outs) is jacked into the Conduit delay input where it goes through delay and filtering (output to mixer)
- The clean Matter signal is multiplied which is essential (output sent to mixer)
- two of the Conduit harmonic oscillations are jumped to the Resist module where they are mixed, then jumped to vactrol 1 (essentially a VCA). The vactrol is triggered by an envelope and the oscillation output is sent (via external reverb) to mixer.
- The same is happening with vactrol 2 but this one is being sent to mixer via external delay.
- Conduit is receiving a simple, slow, 4 part cv sequence via Octone which controls pitch of the oscillations as well as time for the delay (they are synonymous).
- Conduit filter is receiving cv signal via lfo at first and then mid-video re-patched to receive cv via Conduit internal envelop follower created by the delay input.

About mid-video and then throughout the reverb mix and the delay are turned up and down, displaying the three distinctly different Conduit pathways that are present."

"*note that due to an error in manufacturing, the mounting holes have had to be routed - the oblong holes are slightly longer than standard.

Conduit is a delay, filter, and 9 point harmonic oscillation module which creates three independent signal paths that can be inter-mixed how you like. It's also capable of jumping directly into the circuitry of Matter for processing. The root circuitry is based on the conduit desktop piece which is no longer in production.

Delay

At it's root Conduit is a delay with a warm, analog sound which is clean at tight times and tending toward something disgusting and noisy and slower times. External audio or internal oscillation can be processed by the delay. When multiple oscillation points are mixed, the delay feedback gets distorted and noisy. As a delay it serves best as a source of texture.

Filter

The Delay travels into a state-variable filter with fixed resonance. A clean signal passing by the delay will still be filtered. The filter has a vactrol-based cv in to control the cutoff. So this filter receiving voltage control is very wormy in nature. It's best to multiply and mix a signal going into Conduit if it's to be used for processing - giving you the filtered and unfiltered version.

Oscillation

The purpose of this module is not simply as a delay or a filter - these are just components to a greater whole. With Conduit, aspects of the giant delay IC processing are accessed as a series of sound sources - harmonic oscillations based on the clocking of the delay. Therefore, delay time is the same as master pitch for these oscillations (also represented by "time cv"). There are a total of 8 harmonic oscillations and one noise source. All 9 points representing audio level harmonic oscillations are represented by a 9x4 female header so that each of these points or multiple points can be used as a sound source. Using Resist alongside allows one to control the level of the oscillation.
