Sunvox Tips #18 - MetaModules


Published on Mar 24, 2014 Solar Lune·88 videos

iTunes: SunVox - Alexander Zolotov

"Hello! In this tip video, I show how to use Sunvox song files and MetaModules to make your own custom modules. The MetaModule is a really useful and powerful module, since it allows you to both play back Sunvox songs from within Sunvox, as well as save entire module chains, along with their settings.

The workflow for making a custom module is a bit complex, but it's not too bad. It just basically boils down to making your chain in Sunvox, saving the song, loading it into a Metamodule, setting the parameters, and then saving it as a Sunsynth file. Then, when you load the file, you'll load your synth / effect along with its the settings.

As a reminder, I've got my Patreon page up and running here:

So feel free to pledge a little bit per video I create. Thanks!

P.S. My outro's missing because my software was being a poopyhead. :("

All parts here. I missed parts 16 and 17, so you'll find them there.

Haxxor OMNICHORD OM-84 Synthesizer (Febuary 2014)


Published on Mar 24, 2014 Haxxor Soniq·44 videos

"Circuit Bent Omnichord Synthesizer -

Loads of mods including a Patchable Filter & Individual Outputs, LFO, Patchable Analog Drums, Glitch & Metal Touch-Points...

This Omnichord has been a big old restoration project, and was initially suffering from various faults. I've repaired everything except for a physical fault with the strum-plate - unfortunately I had to disable the top 4 notes, as they were constantly triggering themselves due to a faulty strum-plate. The notes can still be accessed with the Touch-Points, so it's not a major loss.

I've also replaced all of the old caps, cleaned the button contacts and pots, re-soldered the connections between the two PCB's & added a separate volume knob for the 'Bass' tone.

Yep, I love these old Omnichords :)"

Emu Proteus 3XR Samples


Published on Feb 2, 2014 Python Blue·55 videos

"Recently acquired a rare Emu Proteus/3 XR, which, while dedicated to ethnic sounds, I love enough to have included in my upcoming EP. This video showcases 21 of the first 128 patches out of 384, some of which are XR-exclusive. Threw in some popular melodies as well, among which a melody gamers might recognize from Age of Empires II, which made heavy use of the Emu ESI4000."

Fairlight Series III Demos (Extended Again)


Uploaded on Sep 19, 2010 Python Blue·55 videos

"More sounds from the Prosonus library and a few more from the factory library, provided by The Art of Sampling sample library. All the sounds used are covered in the style of Brad Fiedel, who used these sounds for Terminator 2, among other '90s projects."

Fairlight Series III Factory Samples (Remake)

Published on Jan 8, 2014

"A revamp of my most successful YouTube video. This video consists entirely of sounds from the Series III factory library which I ported some of over to Kontakt (no additional sounds from Prosonus, in other words), complete with sound names.

Terminator 2 soundtrack fans may recognize some of these sounds, though some samples were also recycled by other synth brands, most notably Korg."

"Custom-modified Oberheim TVS-1 two-voice synthesizer, with one SEM replaced by a custom patch panel providing access to all SEM, Sequencer, and Keyboard patch points. Modifications done in the early 90's by the late great Andy Topeka, keyboard tech for the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, myself, and many others. Modification highlights include a switch to convert the sequencer from 8x2 to 16x1 with blue LED indicator. A full list of mods follows below.

Patch Panel #1
• (2) 1 in/1 out attenuators
• (2) 4-point mults
• (2) attenuators to the filter's inputs, one from the KCV, the other connecting the VCF EG to the exponential response input to the VCF
• (2) KCV outputs
• (2) Quantized AND Analog outputs, one from each row of the Sequencer
• Clock (Step) and Reset inputs for the Sequencer
• Keyboard Gate
• Sequencer Gate

Patch Panel #2
(2) VCO CV inputs (one for each VCO)
VCF CV inputs
Individual VCF outputs: LP, HP, BP, Notch
VCA CV inputs
LFO reset
(2) EG gate and outputs

Additional Modifications:
• Noise from S/H hardwired to the #1 input of the EXT. pot on the filter
• Line Output switch with red LED on/off indicator, extremely useful for private programming via headphones without sending audio to line out
• Kill Switch for VCO #2 (to prevent any possibility of bleed when using only VCO#1)
• Decay Switch, sets EG#1's decay to 0 (short to ground). This was originally intended to switch in a fixed-value resistor so that the decay time could be toggled between a specific (short) value and the pot, but this modification was never completed.
• Sequencer: switch provides either normal 2x8 operation or custom 1x16 operation, seamlessly scanning between Row 1 and Row 2. Blue LED indicator illuminates when Row #2 is being scanned.
• Original red LED's indicating EG trigger replaced by blue LED's"
