73-75 DIY Serge

Published on Dec 23, 2017 Oren Levy

"Recently built the 73-75 DIY Serge panels and now I'm learning how the modules work. So far I am having a lot of fun trying to figure it out. I love how the slightest turn of a knob can completely transform the patch."

Note: "You're hearing only my modular system here. The controller for the melody is a Little Phatty with CV outs, and the controller for the arpeggio is a KMI QuNexus balanced precariously atop the Phatty. Thanks for listening!"

FX Capacitor Demo by SSL

Published on Oct 24, 2017 Doug Slocum

You might remember Atomic Shadow's pic of his FX Capacitor posted yesterday here. the above is the official demo by SSL. Below you'll find additional details on the module.

"Demonstrates the 15 awesome stereo audio effects produced by the FX Capacitor module from Synthetic Sound Labs.

It's 100% compatible with the Synthesizers.com MU style."

via SSL

"What has your synth been missing all these years? Effects – damn it!

At last, an MU module that delivers 15 near studio-quality effects – All in just 2 MU width. Oh Yeah! Very sweet!

Reverb 1
Reverb 2
Reverb-Chorus
Reverb-Flange
Reverb-Tremolo
Sci-Fi Shimmer
Space Shimmer
Stavely Springs
Infinite Freeze
Reverse Reverb
Pitch Shift
Pitch-Echo
Flanger
Slocum Phaser
Frequency Shifter

Select your effect using the Program knob, and the convenient LCD display will show the currently selected effect and it’s parameters. Up to three parameters (depending on the selected effect) that can be adjusted from the INIT controls on the front panel or voltage control them by using the CV-A, CV-B & CV-C inputs.

The FX Capacitor is built around the awesome Spin Semiconductor FV-1 chip (Spin Semiconductor). The FV-1’s seven built-in effects are already awesome, but SSL just couldn’t stop there. Oh no. We had to add 8 more carefully chosen effects that will expand your sonic palette.

Space Shimmer is the brain-child of Gary Worsham. Shimmer is a type of reverb that applies upward pitch shifting (usually by octaves) into the feedback loop for some really ethereal sounds.

Stavely Springs is courtesy of Don Stavely. Don has figured out how to accurately model some of the original dual spring reverb units from the 1970’s. They sound great. If you pulse them, they even “sploing”. The only thing they can’t do is react to physically kicking your module to shake the springs.

The Flanger and Slocum Phaser have a cool feature that allows the Depth knob and CV input to have manual control when the Speed knob is fully counter-clockwise. You can also select between 4, 6, 8 or 10 phase stages on the Slocum Phaser.

Some programs have stereo inputs, some are summed L + R to mono before hitting the effects, and some have different effects on the L & R channels. Play, play, play – and enjoy!

Since effects and feedback settings can conspire to overload the 1350 module, there’s “CLIP” LED on the front panel. Depending on the signal source, a bit of input attenuation might be required to keep things from getting out of hand. Here’s a trick you can use to control the input level – Plug your audio input into the FB_IN inputs instead of the SIG_IN. You can then use the FEEDBACK control as an attenuator. Cool, huh?"

in this patch i have played again manually with the granular synthesis of the er-301. intellijel triatt controls the starting points of three granular mashines.

2. seq /// orthogonal devices er-301 (sample source verbos harmonic osc sequence)

4. seq /// orthogonal devices er-301 (sample source mutable instruments rings)
5. bass /// verbos harmonic oscillator controled by xaoc batumi & make noise sto / into mutable instruments clouds
6. seq /// make noise morphagene (sample source voice) into disting mk4
