"The case is made of curly oak top/front and ash sides/back (they match up really well) and has a couple STG Busboards with a Power One PSU that's really overbuilt for the case size. The modules are all in decent shape save for occasional rack rash that you don't see when screws are in place or some light scratches here or there from a patch lead, which is to be expected with an instrument that's frequently patched and used and nothing out of the ordinary. This system new with a case would cost well over $7,000 so this is a serious deal. Comes with a nice pile of hosa colored patch cables in 1.5 and 3ft lengths.

Euro modules: CEM3340 VCO going through my Jupiter-6 VCF module - bass, Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Alter - Kick/Snare, Pittsburgh Modular DNA Symbiotic Waves going through my Tonus VCF - other percussion, Tiptop Hats909 - closed hat, G-Storm Infusor - percussion sub-mixer, Mutable Instruments Clouds - percussion granular mangling, Malekko Varigate4 - percussion triggers."
In this video I do a more in-depth demo with my Jupiter-6 VCF multi-mode filter clone eurorack module. It's a very colorful filter that gets more interesting with more complex signals you feed into it. It also has an aggressive nature that comes out when the inputs are overdriven.
Two different oscillators can then be mixed together. A sawtooth oscillator is used, a square/PWM wave is used. Different filter modes can be selected: 4-pole lowpass, 2-pole bandpass, 4-pole highpass. Also, two different control voltage modulations can be mixed together to change the frequency. I run a decay envelope from the Bastl Skis along with a triangle LFO, then I use Sample-and-hold. The oscillators are coming from my Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizer Box. Recorded direct to Tascam DR-05 from my Mackie mixer, no effects, no normalization. Beware some low and high frequencies, so watch your levels while listening to the demo."
1. Grp r24 sequencer. Quick demo. Positivity
"Quick demo of my new Grp R24 sequencer. Bass and drums came from klee sequencer. Row 3 is transposing the other two and is sent by midi to prophet 12 with arpegiator and hold on"
2. Modular Synth ideas
"Some ideas with my modular synth. The video was recorded with my phone, so i´m sorry the bad quality."

5. Klee Sequencer
"Pequeña demo del klee sequencer, el audio no es muy bueno, esta grabado directamente con el movil, pero se ve lo que puede hacer este sequenciador"
Just kick back and enjoy these wicked analog multi-mode filter sounds. Lots of little sweet spots on this filter, if you skip around you might miss something really good. It definitely has that Roland sound.
Today I am demonstrating the Jupiter-6 filter clone I just finished building. See demo #1 for all the details. Basically the circuits and chips are the same as demo 1 breadboard test, just now they are stuffed into a 10HP eurorack module w/ some illuminated sliders."
This video demos a Roland Jupiter-6 synthesizer clone filter VCF. This breadboard build took two days, and for me is the largest one I've built yet. Does this circuit sound as good as the original? You be the judge. Anyway, I really wanted to hear what it sounded like before deciding about building my own module.
I came across schematics for the Roland Jupiter-6 at amsynths.co.uk. They actually sell completed modules and PCBs, however they seem to be perpetually out of stock. This will be a nice companion multi-mode filter to go next to my SEM module. IMHO the SEM sounds buttery and creamy, and the Jupiter-6 is a complete savage with outrageous low end."

Analog multi-mode filter madness, soundscapes and big ol' Jupiter stabs are the order of the day. Lots of reverb and delays here. A TR-8 again provides minimal slo-jam electro beats."

The Roland Jupiter-6 Synthesizer is an absolute MONSTER. Pads, Bass, Arpeggio, Strings, Leads - it's all here. And the JP-6 is my favorite go-to synthesizer for SOUND EFFECTS. I have crammed a plethora of strangely beautiful effects and noise that demonstrates its versatility which is beyond comprehension.
Obviously no actual synthesizers were harmed in the making of this all Roland Jupiter-6 demonstration. The TR-8 provided rhythm backing, Big Sky and Timefactor for effects. All tracks were recorded direct to Cubase SX3 via E-mu 1616. NO additional production, eq, compressors, mastering, etc. was used whatsoever."

Answers and a Jupiter storm on Titan
Makenoise DPO modulated by Shapeshifter LFO, a combination of Eowave Titan and Jupiter storm and some ring modulated sounds."
Microtonal Shapeshifting
"Sounds of Shapeshifter with uMod II and uLFO, some Jupiter Storm via Korgasmatron II modulated by DPO and Maths"
"An improvised modular performance featuring the VBrazil Lizard2 and Multi LFO, the MFOS ADSR, Dual VC Delay and Wave Freaker, the Hex Inverter/Ryk Miller Jupiter Storm, The Thomas White LPG, and the Yusynth VCO and EMS Filter."

"1st encounter & session with the MakeNoise DPO (dual prismatic oscillator) installed. Just went with what started happening. This is my favourite excerpt from todays session, after being away from the studio for a week. Enjoy the lil jam :)
Patch notes would be difficult. As i was just grabbing and patching away. the modulation is deep. But the basics:
DPO main voice, Benjolin background noise (both being pitch sequenced differently)
Asteroid BDv4 kick, Jupiter Storm snare.
All being subtley process by Clouds, Echophon, Erbe-Verb.
With Circadian Rhythm driving and being driven by PM Bender, and the Ultra Random Analog playing lots of roles."
"Arturia launches legendary soft synth classics collection to lead into musical temptation
GRENOBLE, FRANCE: following in the footsteps of its super-successful V Collection 4 premium software collection, launched to critical acclaim late last year, music software and hardware developer and manufacturer Arturia is proud to announce availability of V Collection Classics — conveniently rounding up five of its most sought-after Analog Classics soft synth emulations of five legendary analogue synthesizers from five legendary brands into a musically tempting, competitively-priced package — as of April 2...
ARP, Moog, Oberheim, Roland, and Sequential Circuits... classic analogue synthesizer-manufacturing names all. And all of those classic companies — past and present — have produced at least one legendary instrument that truly impacted the music industry throughout the Seventies and into the Eighties and beyond. Indeed, the sought-after sounds of these instruments still resonate today. Think ARP 2600 (1970-81), MinimoogTM (1970-81), Synthesizer Expander Module® (1974-79), Jupiter-8 (1981-84), and Prophet-5 (1978-82). And Arturia has played a not inconsiderable part in bringing these still- sought-after sounds into today’s computer-centric recording and performance workflow thanks to TAE® (True Analog Emulation), an advanced proprietary technology allowing accurate modelling of analogue circuitry behaviour on personal computers. Conveniently, all five of Arturia’s award-winning Analog Classics soft synth emulations of those analogue classics are available to musically tempt as a must-have, competitively-priced package... please welcome, V Collection Classics! Come join us, then, as we make the musical introductions...
Arturia’s ARP 2600 V is a truly versatile sound creation tool with a massive musical bite; indeed, its raw and dirty character is perfectly suited to creating massive drum ’n’ bass stabs to growlin’, funky bass lines and spaced-out drones, with much in-between. From the starship funk lead lines of the Seventies to the gangsta whine of mid-Nineties hip-hop, the ever- present MinimoogTM has been making its phat presence felt for four-plus decades; Arturia’s award-winning Mini V even offers polyphony and additional modulation options, effectively turning it into an authentic-sounding Memorymoog emulation... well, sort of. Oberheim’s Synthesizer Expander Module® (SEM) started life as an add-on synthesizer module for fattening up Minimoogs before becoming a sought-after sound in its own right, with up to eight embedded in Oberheim’s groundbreaking Seventies-vintage polysynths; still sought-after today for its stunning-sounding multimode filter, Arturia offers all this and more in its outstanding Oberheim SEM V emulation. The runaway success of Roland’s then-flagship Jupiter-8 programmable analogue polysynth took the synth world by storm upon its 1981 release, boosting its already superlative sonic capabilities by adding an arpeggiator that helped make many mega hit singles shine forth musically — think Duran Duran (‘Save A Prayer’) and Howard Jones (‘New Song’); similarly, Arturia’s Jupiter-8 V is a real musical workhorse, capable of creating a very versatile range of sounds — stretching from fat to ‘crystalline’ — while going above and beyond the capabilities of the original instrument, thanks to its additional modulation possibilities and inbuilt effects. Last but not least, the Prophet-5 is truly a legend in its own lifetime as the world’s first fully-programmable polyphonic synthesizer; again, Arturia’s Prophet V faithfully brings back to life those historic and superlative sounds, together with those of the 1986-vintage, California-created classic Prophet VS Digital Vector Synthesizer, Sequential’s first digital design (and, alas, the final synth, sadly, from the iconic innovative instrument manufacturer). Must we say more?
Maybe just one more thing, then: thanks to V Collection Classics"
"Setting up TipTop Audio's Circadian Rhythms (CR) as patch master for an upcoming show. Working out the sonic details. Fun session, thought i'd share.
Some patch Notes:
Malekko Richter OSC II as phased lfo to CR external clock in.
CR trigger to Rene x clock in and xcv in. Rene cv/qcv out to Braids running v3 of Bees-in-the-Trees alternate firmware as main voice. CR's trigger 7/8 to Basimilus Iteritas and Jupiter Storm for kick/snare. Cr's other triggers patched to various modulation sources (modulating lots of things)"
"TipTop Audio's new Circadian Rhythms trigger sequencer, first real run. Clocked externally by Malekko Richter Osc II being modulated by MakeNoise Wogglebug CV out. Going through the motions. Working heavily with Preset Looping. Creating complex patterns with the Chaos/Random button. This was only 1 group cycling through 8 presets (8 steps each giving me 64 steps).
Voices are :Basimilus Iteritas, Braids & Jupiter Storm only. Processed via Echophon and Erbe-Verb.
This trigger sequencer is amazing !"
"CAUTION: Abrasive audio at beginning :)
Further explorations into the not so subtle, may take you places you've never been. And that's what happened here.
SHOW MORE"
Interplay with Mutable Instruments Braids & Grids and Hexinverter's Jupiter Storm, Galilean Moons & Mutant Bass Drum.
"1st run with a couple new modules installed today. Just having fun. Barely scratching the surface these two.
Mutable Instruments Grids is driving what you hear.
Kick is Hex Inverter Mutant Bass Drum, Snare-ish sounds from Jupiter Storm post-Galilean Moons. Run thru Grainshift, Ripples and Echophon."
"3rd noise date with the WMD Sequential Switch Matrix. {Headphones/speakers recommended :)
Based on the previous videos patch. With the addition of modulating more things with Hex Inverters' Jupiter Storm - osc's and moon.
Found out how lovely the SSF Propagate is for spacing out Rene's sequence and the Mutant Bass triggers together for a more steady and somewhat random kick."
"Discovering the Steady State Fate Propagate.
Here, I'm feeding it the 4 clock outs from the 4ms Quad Clock Distributor. The SSF Pp'gates Sum output is multed to the MakeNoise Renes' Xcv and Yclock inputs (in snake mode) for a tight semi- repeating short pattern.
Braids as sound source (being pitched by Jupiter Storm).
Submixed in the TipTop Audio MixZ ch A and sent to Echophon."
"1st session with Steady State Fate Propagate : a quad voltage controlled gate delay. Stunning abstract timing variations ensued :
MakeNoise Wogglebug clock out to Propagate ch1 in.
Propagate Sum out (cascading pulses) to Rene X-clock in.
Rene UCV to Braids FM (metamode), Jupiter Storm osc 1 out to 1/v in on same Braids.. sent to Echophon.
4ms QCD to 2nd Braids for Kick."
"The case is made of curly oak top/front and ash sides/back (they match up really well) and has a couple STG Busboards with a Power One PSU that's really overbuilt for the case size. The modules are all in decent shape save for occasional rack rash that you don't see when screws are in place or some light scratches here or there from a patch lead, which is to be expected with an instrument that's frequently patched and used and nothing out of the ordinary.
