Hexinverter Introduces the MUTANT SNARE




"Introducing the Hexinverter Électronique MUTANT SNARE!

This newest module in the Mutant Drum series brings dynamic snare drum synthesis to the eurorack format, with plenty of modulation and sound-sculpting capabilities to make it at home in the contemporary modular system.

Available from eurorack dealers all around the world this fall!

Stay tuned for video demos. For now, here are some audio demos created by our pal Dr. Snarold [above]

////MODULE DESCRIPTION////

From classic electro snares to warping, alien percussion, the Mutant Snare is a feature-rich departure from the static sounds of the 808!

=MIX and DRIVE=
• MIX lets you blend between the SHELL and SNAPPY tones that make up the overall snare drum
• turn up the DRIVE to get overdriven snare tones with intense harmonics. The purple LED indicates when the snare begins to overdrive
• like the other Mutant Drums, signal levels have been normalized for modular level input and output (up to 20Vpp)

=SHELL synthesizes the drum skins=
• analog bridged-t sinewave oscillators, for those organic-sounding tones we've come to love from the 808
• TONE control blends between the two sinewaves of different frequency
• SHELL PITCH lets you tune one of the sine waves, to change the pitch of your snare drum

=SNAPPY adds some noise to the snare=
• an analog white noise generator feeds the SNAPPY circuit
• an external input lets you patch any sound source you like into the SNAPPY generator
• voltage control of SNAPPY decay
• SNAPPY feeds into an analog selectable high-pass or band-pass filter
• voltage control of filter cutoff frequency
• when nothing is plugged into the cutoff CV input, the SNAPPY envelope OR the adjustable sinewave from the SHELL generator normalize through the CV attenuverter for cutoff CV. A jumper on the back of the module allows you to select which of these internal modulation signals are routed here
• filter has three resonance settings: classic 808 (low resonance), high resonance, and self oscillation
• bipolar attenuators (aka: 'attenuverters') on CV inputs"

The Stereo Effect Project - C6 (CARBON Sequencer Demo)


Published on Nov 15, 2015 KilpatrickAudio

"Check out Keith as he puts CARBON through its paces. CARBON is controlling an electric piano, Roland Juno 106, Yamaha S612 sampler, and syncing a Korg volca beats, as well as modulating the filter on a Korg MS-20 Mini for some pulsating effects. The entire tune including arpeggiators were recorded in a single take."

Arturia MicroBrute + Moog FreqBox - The FrankenSynth


Published on Nov 15, 2015 experimentalsynth

"Since they both have a healthy amount of Control Voltage connectivity, it is easy to use the oscillator in a Moog FreqBox as a 2nd oscillator on an Arturia MicroBrute. It is also possible to mute the MicroBrute oscillator and just use the FreqBox oscillator. Things really take off when the Freqbox effect and the sequencer are engaged.

Warm by the Analog Fire (Drone/Sequence part 2)


Published on Nov 15, 2015 Rhythmicons

"This is an extension of the other drone I did earlier today but with numerous effects, stereo processing and sequencing.

Moslab Modular
Synthesizers.com sequencer
AKG BX-10 Reverb
Moog Bass Murf
Moog 104z Delay
Roland RE-301 Chorus Echo Tape Delay

So the output was split into a few signals, one going to the murf and the moog delay. The murf is going to the board and the delay is going to the board, panned left and right.
Another signal is going to the BX-10 which is going to the board panned to the center.
The third signal is going to the RE-301 where it is affected with chorus and echo. The Chorus output is going to the board, and the delay is going to the board both panned opposites.
Delay times are all set to different rates.
There is some droning to show the characteristic of the effects and some sequencing to showcase the delays. I think there were 5 channels of the moslab going back into the board."

KORG MINI POPS 7 Analog Rhythm Box 1971 | HD DEMO


Published on Nov 15, 2015 AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2015 by AnalogAudio1

The MINI POPS 7 is a non programmable analog rhythm box from Keio Electronics - the company which later became KORG. It came out 1971. All rhythms are mixable. It has a very characteristic, outstanding analog sound. It was used by J.M.Jarre, The Wings and some others.

I played the MP7 with a small amout of ambience from a Lexicon MPX-500. In the intro I played the MP7 through a EH Small Stone and a Korg SDD-3000 delay.

"KORG MINI POPS 7" SAMPLE PACK

Do you like the fat, analog drums of the Mini Pops 7? You can purchase it as "MP7 SAMPLE PACK" for 6,99 Euros. All drum sounds of the machine are included (16 bit / 44,1 kHz wav samples).

Recording was made in high quality using RME studio equipment. All original pure sound directly from the machine's output, without any treatments.

After payment through PayPal you will get the sample pack via email.

If you want to buy the sample pack, send a message to ceramic-man@gmx.de (and check your spam folder, I answer quickly)."

DPO + LxD meets Zdsp


Published on Nov 15, 2015 SunFallsMusic

"*Line Audio for that low end :)
Messing about with the new MakeNoise Music LxD aka "Low Strike Duo" module, it's buried in there under the cable madness.
TipTop Audio Circadian Rhythms (CR) at the helm. Only 2 sounds sources here.. and lots of modulation, but the heart of the patch is:
-MakeNoise DPO's Final and Saw patched into LxD's 2 inputs, which is being cv'd by Tides and CR triggering the Strike input.
-Blue Lantern Asteroid BDv4 as kick.
-Zdsp's on madFx"

Moog Mother-32 (x3), Octatrack, Blofeld, OP-1

Just trying out ideas for an upcoming performance; Moog Mother-32 (x3), Octatrack, Blofeld, OP-1

Published on Nov 15, 2015 Genshi Media Group

"This is just a really rough test; trying out ideas for my upcoming performance for the Volt Divers Experimental Electronic Music Collective. Just seeing what sounds go good together, how the sync works between the Octatrack and the Moog Mother-32s, etc. I am NOT at all happy with the way this came out, but I thought I'd put it here to compare with the actual performance which is in five days of this posting!"

Not a new module but I realize I never captured a proper image of it, nor the specs.  Love the dual tuning knob.

via Happy Nerding:

"HM VCHM VCO_75O (Hearn Morley Voltage Controlled Oscillator) is an analog VCO made to give classic four waveforms (sawtooth, pulse, triangle and sine) in a narrow 6HP width. It features counting 10-turn “Tune” knob, where each turn corresponds to 1 octave of frequency range. Thus manual frequency sweep range is 10 octaves: staring from 16 Hz and up to 16 kHz, and this single “Tune” knob covers duties of the commonly used separate “Coarse” and “Fine” tune knobs. The saved panels space is then used by “FM” knob, which provides exponential Frequency Modulation, taking the Modulator’s signal from the corresponding “FM” jack. There is no linear FM present, because we highly recommend to use our FM AID module, which perfectly couples with HM VCO to give the user many different flavors of linear frequency/phase modulations. The “Tune” dial has a handy lock, so you can lock in the knob from accidental moves and keep the exact frequency setting unchanged.

There are also:
– standard “1V/oct” input jack for over than 7 octaves of perfect tracking;
– “Sync” input for hard syncing to the Master ocsillator;
– “PWM” input for Pulse Width Modulation.

SPECIFICATIONS
