Polyend Seq with Eurorack system, Machinedrum and Prophet


Published on Mar 30, 2018 Polyend

"After publishing a series of videos showing Seq in action with simple setups, time to take a look how it's working in a more sophisticated environment. The whole rig is sequenced by Seq, the modular system is controlled by Polyend Poly MIDI to CV converter

Friday Fun - Synth Jam Korg Minilogue and Mutable Instruments Clouds


Published on Mar 30, 2018 sonicstate

"This week in our occasional series where we pair synthesizers, modules or FX for a musical interlude, we use the Mutable Instruments Clouds - we have a special version which our Sonic TALK viewers bought in celebration of our 500th episode and had a custom faceplate made for it. Ours is called Fulsome Clouds. its an interesting unit which allows you to take sounds recorded into the input buffer, and apply granular operations to it, and sending the results into a lovely reverb.

We pair that with the Korg Minilogue - the first affordable analogue poly which we reviewed when it came out. The Minilogue is a surprisingly capable instrument for the money."

Synthesis Technology E370 & Rabid Elephant Natural Gate - Action Patch!


Published on Mar 29, 2018 DivKidVideo

"Here's another video in my line up of E370 videos for Synthesis Technology. Here I'm using it for a second time alongside the Rabid Elephant Natural Gate and sweet baby christ on a bike ... they're a potent pairing! There's a full track / jam / wide shot video exclusively for my Patreon supporters with this patch but for now check out the 4 oscillators on the E370, 2 of which go through the Natural Gate alongside some beats and FX create a little action sequence style patch. Suggests for a better video title in the comments too please! 'Action patch' sounds weird :)

Be awesome! Support me on Patreon - http://www.patreon.com/divkid"

Mutable Instruments Introduces New Marbles Eurorack Module


Published on Mar 30, 2018 Erstlaub

"A basic overview of some of Marbles features. If you can imagine SOU/A149, Branches, Grids, Turing Machine, Brainseed, Sloth and a host of other modules all housed inside one controllable chaotic beauty, this is it!

Note: These are complex modules with a lot of inter-related functions, these videos hopefully serve to illustrate some basic operations."

Some details via Mutable Instruments:

"CONTROLLED CHAOS, REPEATABLE RANDOMNESS

Marbles is a source of random gates and voltages, which offers an extensive amount of (voltage) control on all the different flavors of randomness it produces.

The module gives the musician many different ways of imposing structure on the random events generated by the module: synchronization to external clocks, control of the repetition or novelty of the generated material, quantization of the voltages, or randomization of gates or voltages generated by traditional sequencers.

t: the random gate generator

Marbles either follows its own internal clock, or locks onto an adjustable multiplication/division of an external clock (or regular rhythmic pattern). This regular clock is perturbed by a process simulating an instrumentist playing along a click and trying to catch up on their errors - from perfect accuracy to complete chaos.

From this imperfect master clock, a 2-channel random rhythm is generated, using one of the following processes: random coin toss (similar to Branches), random ratcheting, or random drum pattern generation (similar to a randomly modulated Grids).

X: the random voltage generator

This generator produces 3 channels of random voltages, each of them clocked by the individual outputs of the t section, or by a common external clock signal.

Complete control on the distribution of the output voltages is provided: concentrated or spread-out, quantized or unquantized, smoothed or steppy, centered or biased towards a specific voltage. The same transformations can be performed on an external CV, for sample-and-hold or shift-register operation.

An auxiliary slowly fluctuating random voltage output (Y) is also available for self-patching fun!

A FEELING OF DÉJÀ-VU…

Marbles remembers the history of every recent clock deviation, rhythm or voltage it has generated. The DEJA VU knob on the panel controls the probability of reusing past material instead of sampling fresh random data.

You are thus given control on the feeling of repetition and structure in the generated random voltages and rhythms. At the extreme, the module no longer generates any novel values and loops over the same pattern (or a random permutation of it). And of course, this (variably) random looping can be performed on external CVs!"

And some additional details via Sonic Voltage:

LIST OF MODULES USED AGAINST TIMELINE “SUNRISE” BY DAVE GALE
0m 5s – Gemini Sweep – 3 VCOs into Ring SM, into Gemini Filter

0m 5s – White Noise – into Mini Mod Filter, and into Phaser

0m 21s – Full Mini Mod system (x3) to Build chord, DH-ADSR Env used here! (9 VCOs in use for the chord!)

0m 29s Drums –

Kick – Gemini Filter – Hi Res with Filter CV control via Envelope (very snappy/fast) with Filter Cut off set in the mid/Lo range
Snare – White Noise from ‘Glide+ Noise’ and 1 x VCO (Tri) – combined via Ring SM Mixer and put through overdriven Mini Mod filter
Hats – Just white noise through overdriven filter – envelope Decay/Release tweaked in real time!
Hi-Q – Mini Mod filter with full Resoonance – ADSR controlling Freq CV – overdriven!
Open Hats (left channel!) – just noise and a Mini Mod filter
0m 29s Bass – 2 bass sounds – both from the full Mini Mod system

1st – 2 x VCO acting as a Sub bass (octave apart)
2nd – all 3 VCO’s and with filter being tweaked in real time
0m 29s – 2 Sequencer Synth lines

1. Left Channel – Single VCO into Gemini Filter,
2. Continuous panning – single VCO into Sonic XV filter
0m 51s – OB Throat! – Gemini Filter with one VCO, used in dual mode to create the classic OB Throat effect! Cut Off controlled via DAW.

0m 61s – Background Sustained chords – 3 parts of Mini Mod (3 VCOs) all going through the Glide module, and being filter tweaked in real time

1m 15s – Hi Falling Arpeggio line – Sync’d gated LFO and ADSR both controlling Mini Mod filter, summed via CV Mix module

1m 41s – More Throaty OB filter!! Gorgeous!! 🙂

Repetition of the above to the end

Closes with another White Noise sweep.

All sounds were produced and processed by AJH Synth modules, no other sound sources were used, however, standard production and master processes have been used in a DAW/Mac environment, including eq, compression, reverb and delay.
