Kegel - Feral Forms: Infestation

YouTube via arthurpainter
"This is an edit of a much longer barrage of electronics that started as a sampled (through a Korg Kaoss Pad) Stylophone Beatbox phrase and grew from there. My Folktek Custom Bug and Bugbrand Weevils figure prominently. Alesis Bitrman, Ineko, and Gristlelizer add more flavor to that recipe, while my EH Memory Man consolidates the cacophony."

Malekko: Wiard Envelator

flickr by Analogue Haven
"Photo of the upcoming Envelator by Malekko. This is the fifth and next Eurorack module to come from the intriguing collaboration between Malekko and modular company Wiard. The Envelator can be considered a very flexible envelope/modulator (i.e. multi-function generator).

From Grant Richter of Wiard: "We added a monostable in the "Cyc" feedback loop. Now you can make rolls, strums, echos and bounces with a single section. To get full audio range (500Hz) the delay only kicks in when the knob is pulled out. Delay time is from 4 milliseconds to 10 seconds, exponential curve. "Ext" is an external CV for the delay time, no room for attn. knob.

The normal range of the attack and decay segments is 1 millisecond to 40 seconds. The X10 knob extends the max time for both attack and decay into Gary Chang territory. I have no idea what to do with a 800 second envelope. But I am told they are cool.

The two pull switches are set up up on a composer level to allow ABCD changes on the fly."

We expect to have stock around the end of January.

Price: TBD.

MOTM-650 MIDI-CV Converter Part 1 of 4 - The Basics

video upload by JohnLRice

"This is a series of video tutorials for the Synth Tech MOTM-650 MIDI-CV converter module. The MOTM-650 provides the means to control analog voltage controlled synthesizers with MIDI devices such as keyboards, drum machines and computers.

Paul Schreiber, founder of Synthesis Technology and creator of the MOTM format, explains the features and operation of the MOTM-650 to assist you in getting up and running fast.

See http://www.synthtech.com/ for more information.

JLR's Note: This series was originally just a single long video and available on the Synth Tech site. I took it and broke it up into 4 parts and enhanced the audio and video a little to make it easier to digest. I'll leave these up on my channel unless Paul would like them taken down and moved onto the Synth Tech site etc."

A series of very short cuts zooming on Handsonic (Roland HPD-15) specific fingering techniques.

N.B. Some of the routines obtained here were partly inspired -- in their content and esthetic -- by turntablists Qbert and D-styles . Although nothing can rival real vinyl manipulation by experts, a personal adaptation of these techniques on Handsonic makes imagine new ways in real time electronics.

IF POSSIBLE USE HEADPHONES WHEN VIEWING VIDEO MATERIAL OR CONNECT YOUR COMPUTER TO A QUITE DECENT SOUND SYSTEM.

Why Yes I Do Like Echo Part 2 - Modular synth improv

YouTube via doctorvague. follow-up to this post.
"Modcan Sequencer - Modcan VCDO - Suit and tie guy Post Lawsuit filter - Modcan Digital delay with MOTM 440 in the the delay feedback loop + some synthesizers.com stuff. The sound source is just the 1 VCDO. The module I'm switching at the upper right is a DIY switch module with 4 rows of 4 switches. Various rhythmic triggers are coming from Volta (the 4 white cables). The top row of switches controls the sequencer, the second row controls the delay time. Also used is a Synthesizers.com State Variable Filter and 2 Synthesizers.com oscillators being used as 2 slow LFO's, for like, you know, like, modulating stuff.

Controlling Live loops with the APC40 which are going in dry and also being piped into the modular patch too.

This track is DRY as far as processing goes - it's straight from the modular and Live.

Sorry about the crap video
Hopefully the sound is good though, that's the mainest thing.
This year - new camera.

I'll do some annotations on this if you want, otherwise, enjoy."
