A little reminiscent of the acid bassline in KLF's What Time is Love (at :23):

"This ended up being my most complex patch to date due to all the routings for the performance variations. Includes some gate to midi triggering on the octatrack. Enjoy!"

rolzer

Published on Oct 28, 2014 Peter B

"Tocante has made a version of the rolz-5 circuits. It is an expansion board for the plumbutter. Plumbutter has that nice voltage control for each of its rhythm generators (rolz) but they lack the pure crunchy ultrasound paradox capability of the simple rolz. This expansion board is to make up for that; the rolz are tuned by capacitors, in the range of 1 microfarad, through 1.5, 2.2, 3.3, 4.7, 6.8, up to 10 microfarads (allegro to larghissimo). The odd beats and strange interjections are caused by wiring them to each other. They are all "brown nodes" as on the plumbutter, androgynous, both input and output. Here, they are processed by plumbutter's ultrasound filter, and a gongue and snare drum.

Pittsbrgh Modular Robotspeak Demo Patch

Published on Oct 28, 2014 Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers

"Pittsburgh Modular demo patch featuring a custom Move [208] System, System 10, and a pair of Arturia Beatsteps. The Move [208] system is generating four sounds, hi-hat, kick, and two separate spacey leads. The spacey lead sounds are patched through the Analog Replicator delay for extra spacy-ness. The System 10 is creating the plucking clock sound and then patched through the Phase Shifter module. The TimeRunner module is creating the gate patterns and triggering all of the sounds."

Asteroid Mini Synthesizer
------------------------------
Format: Euro Doepfer compatible, 3U height (5.05")
Power Current Consumption: +108mA, -83mA

Depth: less then 45mm

Circuits involved: VCO, VCA, Envelope Generator, Sub Harmonic Generator, Noise Generator, and trigger striking circuit.

VCO
-------------------------------------------------------------
-VCO type: Triangle core, transistor discrete design.
-VCO waves: Triangle, Sine, Square, Sub Harmonic pulse.
-Noise Generator flavors: White and High Pass White Noise.
-VCO modulation sources: (2) Direct input CV's labeled 'PCV',

(1) Hi spectrum Linear FM input, (1) Variable sync input, (1)

Attenuated CV labeled 'Mod CV'.
-Internal hard wired modulation: Bi-polar Decay source, and 'Pop CV' trigger spike. The Pop gives a small punch to the sound.

Envelope Generator
--------------------
Timings: 1uf Capacitor charge, 9.7uf cap, or middle position is 0.47uf cap timing. These effect the snappy feel of the decay. Middle position of the switch is best for drum and short percussive sounds.

-Trigger Striking System: The internal trigger conditioning circuit allows from 2.5v to 10v input for successful triggering of the envelope generator. The internal trigger voltage is about 12v. This allows for big drum sounds, and strike effect. There is a 'Thru' jack to pass the input signal to another Asteroid Synth for daisy chaining.

Mixer
--------------------
There is a summing mixer with direct output (pre vca and pre booster), this makes the module act like a normal vco for you to patch to a filter, etc. You also have a mixer input jack so that you can mix another vco or two Asteroid Mini Synths together.

VCA and Analog Delay
-----------------------
The vca can be patched directly into, bypassing the internal summing mixer. This is great for send and return. You would patch from the Asteroid Mini synth's 'Sum' to a filter for example, then patch back into 'Ext VCA' to return the processed sound. The booster knob will boost signals also

patched into the Ext VCA jack.
-The Delay has modulation for: Repeat, Time, and level.
-The VCA is a high quatity cool audio v2164 based vca with its own attenuated 'MODV' cv input.

Final Output
-------------------------
You get a Dry post vca synth level output, and a 'PERC'

output. The difference is the 'Perc' output can have the

delay fx mixed in.
There is a line Level 1/4" output jack.
All outputs can be used simultaneous.

***Some odd ball notes about the module
----------------------------------------
In order to use the Square wave as a sound source you have to patch from the jack above the toggle switch and select the Sqaure wave, and patch that into the Mixer input 'Mix'. One interesting patch is to patch the square wave into a CV input to create a Saw wave. I did this because I wanted to give you the option. If you wanted only the square wave sound source after you did the mix in patch, you can turn off the triangle or sine wave as that has no level knob. You can also use this method to make noise bursts with no vco waves mixed in. The noise generator does not have to be patched like the square wave, it is internally routed to the mixer. Just use the Noise Level knob to adjust the noise level. On the Direct Noise ouput, the level knob does not change anything, it is a direct out."
