Buchla/Eurorack cross-pollination

Published on Aug 5, 2018 Jens Paldam

"Using the Envelope Detector from the Buchla 208 and the Doepfer A-119 Ext. In, I have created this patch where the two systems react to each other. The Buchla creates random pulses that when received by the clock dividers and multipliers in the Eurorack is translated into sudden rhythmic changes. Hit me up in the comments section if you wish to hear more about the patch :)"

X1L3 - Shards and Wreckage - harsh drone and percussion

Published on Aug 5, 2018 X1L3

"Harsh drone and drums power electronics session with some cool use of a shard and a couple of ADSRs tied to VCAs as a percussion generator.

Shard 1 - It's got a soundmachines LP1 lightplane at the atrophy input which is synced to the grids module. The grids module is using the remaining two trig outputs it has to trigger the two ADSRs, these in turn are controling two VCAs. Combined they create a cool distorted drum track. The output is split into two. One instance fed into clouds for reverb and the other raw to the mixer.

Shard 2 - This has a braids module fed into the audio input to blend with, disrupt and grind with the shard oscillators. Heard to varying degrees of dominance at various places. Anything that happens on this shard is manually controlled, this comes into play heavily in the closing of the session. The output is fed into a VCF which is then hooked up to the mixer.

Wreckage - This has an LP1 connected to the atrophy input and the audio out is connected to a VCF and then fed into the mixer. The VCF also has an LP1 hooked up to modulate the cutoff. Wreckage gets used for violence and high frequency stuff and later on for fucked up glitching and noise. Taking the lead as the set fades away."

This was a tough one to get down. Singing and concentrating on wires aaaaaaajkfosdglgfdhhhhhhh ... But a little insight into this :-

Sequenced by two Arturia Beatstep pro's The first beatstep was controlling the two synth lines that were running, which i programmed in at the start on the keyboard. It also controls all the drums, running between two different beats. one for verse (4 to da flooowr) and a breakdown beat for the chorus's, basically just breaking up the kick drum pattern. The second Beatstep in this one was only controlling the JUNO (BUT HOW DO YOU SEQUENCE A POLYPHONIC INSTRUMENT WITH A BEATSTEP PRO??) easy.... the drum channel. assign all of the drum pads to different keys, that way you can play in a polyphonic synth line.
- The first synth line was a single oscillator, running into a moog style ladder filter, with not much attack on its envelope so it sounded like a slow clumsy man being followed by a trombone. In the cover i was adjusting the octave at some points but not much.

- The big bassline which comes in in the chorus is 2 synths. The main part is a triple oscillator going into a ms20 style filter, then into 2 sets of distortion, the second one (a SAFETY VALVE TUBE) has a switch which enables it which boosts the volume, this switch also engages the second bass synth which is a further 3 oscillators and a very low sub oscillator to turn on. These go into a juno style chorus widener and all that stuff. (this switch also fires out a 5v signal to turn up the VCA on the snare spring reverb, and the decay on the high hats) *talk about modular presets hey*

-The juno has 2 midi cables connecting it to the beatstep pro above, so it can send midi and receive midi.

-sadly after however many takes i did of this cover at some point kosmo's face turned off and i didnt realise DOH :(.

-My vocals are running into a roland vocal processor, so i can turn on a pitched down vocal, to add more dynamics, its also going into some saturation and some delay which i turn on and off at points.

-The ms10 is just going through a handful of pedals to make it sound a bit more gnarly, which is tough to saturate a single oscillator synth, so i send it through smallr room reverb first, then into a pitch downing cheapo chinese pedal, then into some distortion then into more reverb. the first instance of reverb gives the distortion something to bite on, instead of just boosting the signal of just a single wave, which aint too fun at all!

I literally listenned to the song a couple of times then just took the essence and forgot most of it haha. hence it ain't really a cover but more a live remix or summit? aaaah who knows!!

Also! the kick trigger is also sent to an envelope generator, which sends out an inverted output to open VCA's on the bass channels, hence you get that snazzy sidechain Ducking **quack quack*"
