GrainCube - Electroacoustic Reaktor Collaboration

Reaktor and Jazz Mutant Lemur downloads available here

"A free granular electroacoustic Reaktor Collaboration between DevSnd, Rachmiel, TwistedTools & Antonio Blanca.

GrainCube is a four part granular processing instrument with numerous randomizing functions and modulation capabilities that allow for indescribable sonic mischief. The heart of GrainCube is a 400mb sample map of exclusive sample material from Richard Devine & Josh Kay of DevineSound. GrainCube is a collaboration between DevineSound & Rick Scott (Rachmiel), with additional programming and GUI tweaks by Igor Shilov of Twisted Tools. An additional version is also available for the Jazzmutant Lemur, re-imagined by Antonio Blanca.

"Richard Devine is one of the most highly respected sound designers in our industry and here he gives away the result of an electroacoustic collaboration with RachMiel: a unique new Reaktor instrument. Not only that, but he's created a special Lemur version alongside Lemur-programmer genius Antonio Blanca for the JazzMutant community.

Richard Devine's unique approach to sound is hugely in demand and the Lemur Cube's two granular samplers are packed with an entire library of original sound content. The randomisations inside the Reaktor patch make it a sound sculpture piece that never plays the same sound twice. The in-depth control provided by the Lemur template is perfect for guiding the chaos.

The twisted textures provided by DevineCube are ideal to add soundscapes and sound fx to any project, or even throw in your own samples into the waveform window (define the samples range in the main window) and see what comes out!"

The Modulator DIY Modular

Full specs and details here.

"There are Buchlas, Moogs and Serges, but there is nothing like rolling your own...
Here are my pictures and notes from building an analogue modular synthesizer.

Why?
A while ago I planned to buy a Yamaha CS-30 since I wanted to have some kind of simple analogue sequencer device but I couldn't fine one in good condition. Then I moved on looking at the Roland System 100m but figured the price tag for a decent system with sequencer and all would be a bit too high.
Searching the net for analogue sequencers I found the Music From Outer Space 16-step analog sequencer. Quite simple construction and versatile. But an analogue sequencer needs to drive some analog VCOs, and VCOs need VCFs, and VCFs need CV sources, ...
I decided to go for a small basic setup..."

"Careful With That Spirytus, Jeff!" - an Archangel demonstration

YouTube via suitandtieguy — May 11, 2010 — "Here's a quick jam on the Det3 Archangel controlling a Moog Micromoog and my own modular synthesizer, with a CR-8000 lounge machine added for good measure.

I feel the sound on U-Toob is substandard. if you would like to download a 192kbps MP3, it's at:

http://suitandtieguy.com/sounds/2010%...

the Archangel's sequencer is running at 8th notes, the clock output driving the V-trig input of the Micromoog. the A row of the Archangel is controlling the pitch of the Micromoog, the C and D rows are used to control the filter cutoff of the Micromoog via the "CD" output, which alternates between the C and D rows creating a filter pattern twice as long as whatever the current pitch pattern is. the filter pattern is sent through an attenuator so it can be brought in partway through the recording. sequence lengths of 2 to 8 stages are used at various points.

the touchplate keyboard of the Archangel is controlling my modular synthesiser. the gate and pitch outputs are controlling pitch and gate on the modular. the pressure output is controlling vibrato amount and the vertical position is controlling filter cutoff.

voice and vibrato oscillators are Synthesizers.com Q106, mixer is homebrew using a hacked STG Soundlabs Wave Folder PCB as a gain stage, filter is an MOTM-490, output and vibrato VCA is an STG Soundlabs Signal Amplifiers module. ADSRs are based on MFoS PCBs.

clock master is a x0xb0x through the STG Soundlabs Time Buffer, driving the Archangel and the CR-8000. Micromoog delay is a Boss DD-20, CR-8000 reverb is a PCM-80, and the modular goes through the Eventide H3000. everything tracked individually with effects printed to an Alesis HD24 and mixed in Digital Performer.

no spirytus rektyfikowany was harmed or consumed in the making of this video, but apparently someone in the studio while i was making it drank more of it than he should of the previous night."

KOPRO Demo - Kaossilator Song

YouTube via peasant2general — May 11, 2010 — "This video was done with the intention of fully using the kaossilator pro´s capacities, including the vocoder, some of my favorite patches, the rythms and the capacity to mute one of the four loops.

The vocals were input using an Audio Technica AT2020, routed through a mixer for phantom power and into the line input of the KOPRO.

The visuals were directly recorded from Windows Media Player, using Battery randomization.

I own the rights for this song, if you look to post it, please ask permission."
