Using Minilogue with pedals

Published on Sep 7, 2017 Alba Ecstasy

"Probably after this video, you'll jump into some cheap but nice sounding Behringer pedals. Don't expect to the quality of a €400 pedal, we're talking here about two €50 Behringer pedals, but they do theyr work properly (and I got them both on a big fat discount! no, not from Behringer!).
So, Boss ODB-3 is here just for a little more gain, because, you know, Minilogue it's a little shy on its output.
Behringer FL600 - Flanger machine, used on a Analog Chorus preset.
RV600 - used with the Space preset. And here is my trick to make this Reverb Machine to sound better: I keep the Tone knob, a little to the left to the low register [wink]. This setting will cut its metallic resonance on the high ends.
The Minilogue patch is from the Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious pack: http://www.albaecstasy.ro/korg-minilo..."

"Boost & Stimulate your music production with original sound concepts.

NOISY, WONKY, GLITCHY ENSEMBLES MADE FOR REAKTOR PLAYER

Announcement « Blinksonic° is now made for Reaktor Player »:

As Native Instruments announced it few weeks ago,  Reaktor powers now third-party synths and effects.
I am delighted to confirm that all BLINKSONIC° instruments are now formated to be compatible with the free REAKTOR PLAYER.
They can be opened either in standalone or as a VST/AU/AAX plug-in within your favorite DAW. 
This, with no extra cost, because for now it’s not necessary to have a full license of Reaktor 6 to run RUIDOZ°, AETØNZ°, SUBSTANZ° and VOZ°.

Note : This update is free for existing users.

About :

BLINKSONIC° is a self project conducted by Sylvain Stoppani, a french artist and sound designer, who’s involved in the Electronica IDM, Glitch and Breakcore music scene since 2001.
Created in 2016, he provides a complete set of sampling tools with their own sonic ecosystem and a highly illustrated graphic workflow.
BLINKSONIC° instruments are a complementary collection of sample-based instruments for sound design or live performance.
BLINKSONIC° develops musical toolboxes guided by specific principles for composing and musically arranging samples. All BLINKSONIC° software ships with ready-to-use sample libraries resulting in audio tools that are playable, fun, and interactive.
The entire musical process is available at your hands with all the techniques ideal for live performance. Thanks to Reaktor’s versatility, BLINKSONIC° ensembles can be used either standalone or within a DAW.

Gotharman CS Filter 1/2: overview (LMS Eurorack Expansion)

Published on Sep 7, 2017 Learning Modular

"This is the first of two movies on the IG000155 version of the Gotharman CS Filter. In addition to being a 2-pole multimode filter based on the classic Yamaha CS filter chip (IG00156) and its organ variant (IG00155: more bass; supposedly less crazy resonance), the Gotharman version takes the crown from Polivoks clone for being the most insane, unstable filter I’ve heard when pushed with high signal levels combined with high cutoff and resonance settings. This movie demonstrates how to move it between tame 2-pole response and crazy bursts of high-frequency oscillation. I also briefly touch on its high and bandpass modes in addition to low pass.

The second movie – which dives deeper into its behavior (including spectrograph displays), plus spends more time exploring the other filter modes – is exclusive to my Patreon supporters: https://www.patreon.com/LearningModular

At the end of it you will see the performance Mark and Matt played live, before this we show you the brilliant Gesprächskonzert by Mark Verbos introducing his modular products to our great audience on Superbooth and to you.
