"In this video I show a simple work·a·round to saving drum kits within the Digitakt! This knowledge was passed on to me from an actual Elektron employee Mario!"

Happy Nerding PanMix Jr


Published on Apr 28, 2018 Happy Nerding

Don't miss this one even if you aren't into eurorack.

"PanMix Jr is a high quality 3 channel mixer with manual panning and volume controls with dual concentric knobs. Each channel’s output is separately available. Also channels 1 and 2 can be switched to be mixed with the subsequent channel, allowing for 1-1-1, 1-2, 3 mix configurations. Equal power pan law (3dB) is provided. Left and Right led indicators available for all three channels.

Several modules can be chained together via connections on the back side. This connection is possible with other Happy Nerding stereo modules too. At the moment PanMix Jr stereo output can be internally send to the Isolator module. Or stereo signal can be received from OUT and latest revision of PanMix."

Some Mario Brothers for you. ;)

CVilization - first prototype test run


Published on Apr 28, 2018 Urs Heckmann

Side project from u-he's Urs Heckmann.

"CVilization outputs 3 and 4 plugged into V/octave of two oscillators. Two voltages from Pressure Points plugged into CVilization inputs 3 & 4. Moskwa Sequencer plugged into CVilization input 2. Clock plugged into CVilization second CV input.

CVilization outs 3 & 4 quantized to minor scale, sample & hold from clock input.

First: Mixing input 4 onto outputs 3 & 4, so that both oscillators are controlled from one input (Pressure Points bottom row).

Second: Mixing input 3 onto output 3, to control the interval of one oscillator to the other (Pressure Points middle row).

Good for some noodling around.

Third: What about different depth of control? - Instant extra fun for noodling!

Forth: Adding input 2 (sequencer) into both oscillators. Which of course can be done at different depths as well for some nice variation.

Fifth: Changing depths, changing sequencer clock (Euclidean Circles) and direction (Forward - Pendulum).

Then, going back to minimum values."

021//Champion - Moog DFAM and Mother 32s melodic self-generating track


Published on Apr 28, 2018 Alastair Wilson

"A semi-self-generating modular patch using a DFAM sent through an Eventide Timefactor on vintage setting and 2 Mother 32s sent through an Eventide Space modechoverb reverb.

Finally, a DFAM! I've been looking forward to testing it in a self-gen patch for a while. Unfortunately I've discovered it works best by tweaking it manually, and requires other modules to make the most of it, but hey - restrictions make the patch more creative!

The main points of this patch are:
- The 'melody' is the same as the background arpeggio, only with the VCO Pulse out from the Mother 32 patched into the DFAM's Ext Audio input to give it the same rhythm as the drums.
-The Mother 32 playing the bass notes is glitched so that the sequencer runs slower than the input clock (see more here: https://youtu.be/v1y7X1M3iso)
- The VCA decay (the volume fade) of the DFAM is modulated to decrease, causing the drums to turn into clicks.

KORG Prologue SDK Development Boards Coming to SUPERBOOTH18


"A little something for Superbooth in Berlin next week."

Open source KORG. Remember the Prologue allows you to create your own oscillators and effects.

From this post on the Prologue:

The big surprise: "The prologue offers an SDK (Software Development Kit) that allows developers to program, customize and extend the capabilities of the multi-engine and digital effects and is expected to be available for download in the spring of 2018. The prologue provides 16 user oscillator slots and 16 user effect slots, and users can use the prologue Librarian software (also expected to be available for download in the spring of 2018) to load into their prologue new oscillators and effect programs created by developers with the prologue SDK (Software Development Kit)."

Curious if these Development Boards are required for the SDK or if they will allow more. Note the input and output. This of course implies you would be able to use the boards to process and output audio. What sort of engine will be provided? The full synth engine of the Prologue or a limited engine? MIDI and access to the SDK will be over USB. Note the lack of and MIDI jacks.

Synton/Syntonovo PAN Analog Synth Coming to SUPERBOOTH18



This one is in via Soviet Space Child.

Pictured above is the prototype PoP Analog from the makers of the Synton Syrinx. Note the similar touch pads. You can find a video of the PoP Analog presented at SUPERBOOTH17 here.

At SUPERBOOTH18, Synton will be showing their new PAN Analog Synth:

"We’re almost done now with the design of PAN, SyntoNovo’a Analog Synth with its XYZPression Keyboard – a distinguishably different synth with surprising features.

PAN will be shown at the Berlin SuperBooth2018. Next steps will be a test batch production followed by field-tests at several carefully selected beta test sites.

Please visit us at our SyntoNovo stand 242 , together with our cooperators This is Not Rocket Science at 243, and make sure tot share your thoughts and suggestions with us!"

Strymon Magneto First Test // 3 Module Challenge!


Published on Apr 27, 2018 Genshi Media Group

::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::

"Is it possible for one to fall completely, madly in love with a module in those first initial moments? Yes, yes it is... and I did with this Strymon Magneto! I wanted to see what sort of pretty ambient thing I could come up with, immediately after unboxing, while limiting myself to only three modules. So here, the Mutable Instruments Marbles is sequencing the Mutable Plaits module, which is then going into Magneto."
