intellijel Tetrapad: Slippery Voltages

Published on Jan 16, 2018 intellijel

"In this video we take another look at Tetrapad's voltage mode with a few fun patches.

We discovered this mode is a lot of fun for controlling the QuadVCA to fade between different sources and create evolving melodies."

"Two Krell patches voiced by a Make Noise​ DPO and 0-Coast, with a steady kick from the Moog Music Inc.​ DFAM. The synth voices are running through an EarthQuaker Avalanche Run v2, and the DFAM is running through a Strymon​ BigSky. Recorded in one take."

FOCUS// Prophet 6 + Arp Odyssey

Published on Jan 16, 2018 MR TUNA Music

"Just needed an excuse to try out the new camera! Direct to camera recording and some smooth DAWless jammin’
Things get lost after a few minutes like the tend to do... but if all my jams sounded like trash from now on and looked this good; I would be okay with that."

VGM #127: Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy (Yoshi's Island) Synth-Rock Cover Ft. Curious Quail

Published on Jan 16, 2018 Ace Waters

"I was inspired by another amazing AGDQ. So here is some Yoshi's Island...or is it Yobby's Island now? Also, I have been waiting for a long time to try and tackle the 'dizzy section' of the song, and had an absolute blast making it.

Ft. My good friend Mike from Curious Quail."

Dave Smith Instruments In The Spotlight With the Prophet-6 and Warren Walker of The Kandinsky Effect

You can find the full interview on DSI's website here.

"Warren Walker was raised in the rural Northern California gold rush town of Grass Valley. He became enamored with music at a young age, and by his early teens he was performing on jazz and blues gigs with his guitarist father, Thomas Walker.

Walker earned a BM from the University of Nevada’s rigorous jazz program, where he studied with stellar musicians such as Peter Epstein, David Ake, Hans Halt, Andy Heglund, and Larry Engstrom. After graduation, Walker lit out for Europe to pursue his career as a musician. In February, 2007, he settled in Paris, France and quickly forged ties with some of that city’s most adventurous players. In Paris, Walker formed the Warren Walker Trio (renamed The Kandinsky Effect), and began performing and touring internationally with it and other projects.

Walker maintains an international presence through various groupings with international tour schedules; including The Kandinsky Effect, oddAtlas, Collektor, and TwinLux.

We chatted with Warren about how he’s using the Prophet-6."

Verbos Amplitude & Tone Controller (LMS EE)

Published on Jan 16, 2018 Learning Modular

"Here is a set of videos on the Verbos Amplitude & Tone Controller. It combines an input gain section with lovely saturation, a 2-pole vactrol-based self-oscillating low pass filter with diode limited resonance, and an Arp 2600-inspired VCA with simultaneous linear and exponential control voltage, all using discrete components. If you’re looking for that so-called “vintage sound” combining not-buzzy overdrive and a constricted, low-mid croak when driven hard, start here.

This is another addition to my ever-growing Eurorack Expansion course. Learning Modular Patrons get additional notes that go along with each video:

Twangs, Whistles and Tweets (part 1)

Published on Jan 16, 2018 Richard Horsman

"Rings and Plonk play Noisering's Branched notes while Two Bumps Tides fed by Mr Wogglebug impersonates a dome-topped robot, Peaks beats and DPO drones. Intelllijel Steps and Scales proceedings while Erica's friends add depth and repeats.

All a bit unplanned (you really *could* try harder Richard!) with a couple of gaffs and a falling photo. The next one'll be a bit more 'together' ;-)"
