Korg Volca Bass vs. Metasonix TM-7 Scrotum Smasher

Published on Apr 15, 2014 nooneimportant77·33 videos

"Still learning.

Signal chain for the volca is : MIDI out of computer for sync - Volca Bass - TM-7 - cwejman VCA-4mx - WMD Micro Hadron Collider (this isn't really doing anything) - FoH Sound of Shadows (obviously used delay, not changing the sound much).

There's a little drone thing, that's just a Synth Tech e340 Cloud Generator, and simple filters, nothin crazy.

Drums are in the computer. Though the TM-7 is really good on drums.

Evaton Technologies RF (Radio Frequency) Eurorack Module Prototype - Video Demos & Pics

Be sure to turn this one up! Listen on a system with good bass for some of the lower frequencies. Part 2 with louder volume below followed by some pics.

I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Evaton Technologies prototype RF eurorack module. This is my first go with the module. Please note this is not a musical demo and not a formal demo of the module. I just fired it up, loved what I heard and decided to record it. The RF is a voltage-controlled sideband shortwave receiver. Knobs include "RF Gain" to control the RF signal level, "Tuning" to control the RF frequency, "CV Amount" applied to "Tuning", and "Audio Gain" for the overall output level. All you hear is the RF with some light chorus and reverb. I bring the volume in with the Mattson Mini Modular JP filter. Once it's open it's 100% RF producing all the timbres you hear. I apply CV modulation of the RF Tuner with a Mattson Mini Modular dual LFO, first with the lower rate LFO and then with the higher rate which essentially morphs the RF modulation into audio range for some interesting timbres. At 2:08 that's the RF Tune knob adjusting the sound, not a filter. I also adjust the skew of the incoming Mattson LFO shape (right knob) at 2:50 which gives the effect of adjusting pitch. The only tweaking is what you see as I'm holding the camera with my right hand. I'm curious how it will respond to sequencers and other modulation sources and I'm curious how it will act as a modulation source itself for other modules. This module excels at picking up strange noises from sub oceanic bass to interstellar space. The drawing of the Octopus and the Space Monkey suddenly make sense. I get it and I love this module.

You might want to lower your volume levels for the following video.  Dry signal until 1:23, then some chorus and reverb added.

Surrey Spectrum Frequency Shifter

via this auction

This is the first Surrey post. Via the listing:

"This is something special and quite unique.. The Spectrum Shifter by Surrey Electronics. Rare audio processing device from the 70-ties, not the same principle as a pitch shifter. A bit like a budget Bode shifter. The slider might need some cleaning but everything works and it is ready to play or mod into...

Please have a look at the pictures and see for yourself. Let me know if you have any questions. Please check my 100% positive, music/synth/studio related feedback. I'm a serious and professional seller AND packer.

Something about frequency shifters from the web:


'a frequency shifter will shift all frequencies additively. Thus, the spectra (overtone content) of the source will become increasingly distorted with shifting. This is opposed to say, a Harmonizer's pitch shifting. Frequency Shifters usually use a quadrature oscillator as the carrier (these were usually voltage-controlled in analog synth oriented models), and at low rates, can be used to reduce microphone feedback. The famous devices designed by Harold Bode can shift up to 5k and good carrier rejection, and were used in electronic music studios to radically alter sounds, especially sources with a lot of noise, such as percussion. FS's were featured in several analog synths, such as the Buchla, Serge (two versions, one with external carrier), and the Moog (licensed from Bode).'"
