Modular Drums

Published on Oct 7, 2015 Sean Pendleton

"Playing with some simple modular drum patches.

Bass drum is the Mankato filter self oscillating and swept by an AR, then going into a CGS tube VCA.

Snare is the the noise form the TH super controller, Swept by an AR, then into a wasp filter clone, and into the CGS tube VCA

Hihats are 2 vcos into a ring modulator and then into a VCA.

Other drumish sound is a Wogglebug Ringmod out going into a vca. Always remember to screw your Wogglebug panel in before using.

Drone at the start is the Orgone Accumulator

Bass is an XR VCO triangle going into a MFOS Wave Freaker + a second XRVCO Saw, and then into the MA Discrete SVVCF

Leadish thing is the TTSH"

Demora: quasi-tuned short delays

Published on Oct 7, 2015 wellurban

"Using very short delay times and high feedback, you can get pluck-like sounds out of Demora by just feeding a short envelope into the audio input. However, without reprogramming, the Time CV input is far from 1v/o, and at audio-rate delay times the CV is so sensitive that the resulting pitch is unstable.

Nevertheless, you can get vaguely musical results by manually tuning the CV input, and the Width effect adds extra timbral interest. Also, running a second, slower envelope into the Feedback CV means that you can control the degree of "ringing", for short or sustained plucks."

Some pis of the inside below.

"Oberheim OB-Xa in excellent physical condition:

- Powers on with output and the classic "Oberheim" sound.

- Later model OB-Xa with storage for 120 programs.

- All 8 voice boards were recapped with new electrolytics a couple years ago. Instrument powers on and autotune functions properly to tune voice boards.

- New key bushings were also installed a couple years ago. Keys are nice and soft when depressed, not clunky...

- An E and F key second from the right didn't sound when depressed though a quick inspection revealed the J-wire for both keys is in good condition and may just need some cleaning as well as the contact bar."

"Just a quickie this time. I liked how this little jam was sounding, but it was the end of the evening and I was about to leave the studio, so I quickly shot a jam with no studio lights. Arturia Minibrute on bass, Arturia iSEM on pads and keys. Tr-8 and KP3 handling the beats, fx and loops.

Thanks for Watching!"
