"I wrote this using my modified Midibass TB-303. Although not much is going on in the midi department because I don't really like melody or midi so maybe I should have bought a kitten instead? If you see yourself in this video you probably should go see a doctor who specializes in Midibass TB303's."

"Please visit http://www.bdwnmusic.com !

Added some more elements to the 'jam' in my previous video (" Me Live @ MachineDrum SPS-1 MkII (28-11-07) ").

Didn't use my crappy camera mic to record the audio this time, so there's good audio quality :)."

Tiptop Audio Z-DSP

via Tiptop Audio
"It’s time to get ready to clear up 28HP of your precious modular space for a unique sonic experience, watch out, the Z-DSP is coming your way. The module is currently in the final stages of beta testing and the first batch is expected to be available sometime in November. A number of the Z-DSP’s components are custom made and supplied to us in small quantities; as a result the first run is limited to 40 modules and we hope to have another batch made during December.

One of the unique features of the Z-DSP is its ability to change applications on-the-fly with the algorithm cartridges. The first cartridge to be offered for the Z-DSP is the Dragonfly Delay, a collection of 8 time-based VC-Stereo-Delay algorithms that behave gently and sweetly, but, with the twist of a knob, switch of a button, or patch addition, it can suddenly become extremely rude and unexpectedly bend the space-time of your waves in a unique manner. Next in line will be the Spider Filter, a collection of 8 brutal VC-Digital Filters (VCDF) with deep cut/pass filters and attacking resonance that really bites. This cartridge is currently rated NC-17 here in Hollywood, so beware.

Coming soon..."

Z3000>Z2040>Z-DSP filters >Z5000 by Tiptop Audio
"Had some fun last night testing the filters of the Z_DSP. The baseline is made using Z3000 PWM pulse into the Z2040. This then get into the Z-DSP, the Z-DSP use the Bat Filter Cartridge, and the output of the Z-DSP goes in stereo to the Z5000 that adds the stereo delay. The growling are Frequency sweeps of the Z-DSP Bat Filter cartridge using program No.7 VC - 4Pole Digital State Variable Filter. At the end of the track I replace the Z-DSP cartridge to the Dragonfly Delay and switch the Z5000 to Reverb to make some strange pad. This pad is made by modulating the Z-DSP clock and a tiny bit of the VC-Time on both channels."

Pictured here is the Beta-Test Version of the Waldorf 4-pole analog filter. If you remember from this previous post, there were multiple revisions/versions of the filter. Swissdoc wrote in to let me know about this page with more info on each including a link to additional info with images.

11hz Robot - Faux Commander

11hz Robot - Faux Commander from 11hzRobot on Vimeo.

"Still trying to create a drone commander sound with the micron. This time I stuck to just 2 oscillators(square and triangle), a square lfo (with speed and depth control) modulating a lowpass filter frequency cutoff, a custom slope drawn in the tracking generator used a source for the sample and hold, which is modulating the the same filter's cutoff. The sample and hold does not have any depth control, but I can activate it or bypass it. The oscillators are also run through a bandpass filter. The bandpass does not have any lfo modulation. Both filter's cutoff can also controlled manually with two of the micron rotary knobs, the third knob is used for changing the frequency of one of the oscillators.

The variety and quality of sounds that the Drone Commander can generate with just two oscillators and two lfos is amazing. These micron patches are just to hold me over till I actually get my hands on one.
