New Make Noise René Tutorials
Three new videos have been added to the Make Noise Rene tutorial playlist here.
Moog Grandmother vocal vowel talking synth tutorial
Published on Oct 3, 2018 once upon a synth
"This is a patch making tutorial for how to make some really strange vowel/vocal/talking synth type sounds. We're not going after a specific sound and we're obviously not trying to get full words out of the synth, but this is a fun way to get general vocal-ish sounds out of your synth. The main thing here is the audio-rate modulation of the filter cutoff."
Polyphonic Sequence on Medusa
Published on Oct 3, 2018 Dreadbox
"Part 3 of a series of videos tweaking sounds and sequences on the Polyend & Dreadbox Medusa Synthesizer.
In this video Yannis creates a polyphonic sequence on the Medusa synthesizer, and later he edits parameters on steps."
Teenage Engineering OP-Z Mega Tutorial - Level 1
Published on Oct 3, 2018 cuckoomusic
"The OP-Z is finally here! How does it work? After hanging out with me in this video you will get the workflow into your backbone. There's SOOOO MUCH you can do with this tiny device, so I don't want to stress it. If you're really interested in learning how to manoeuvre this machine, let's take our time. So make yourself a cup of tea, and let's get going."
New KOMA Dual Discrete VCA Eurorack Module
Published on Oct 3, 2018 KOMA Elektronik
"The KOMA Dual Discrete VCA offers two independent high quality VCA channels, both built up out of discrete transistor cells with low CV and audio bleed, very low noise and distortion. The VCA’s feature set also enables you to experiment with the linear/exponential response curve, changing the dynamics of your sound. Play around with the gain settings for creative distortion effects in the classic KOMA style: High quality sound by default, noise by choice!"
"BERLIN, 3 OCT 2018 - KOMA has been rather quiet on the Eurorack front over the past years, but that is about to change! Introducing the latest module in the KOMA Elektronik Eurorack line: the Dual Discrete VCA!
The KOMA Dual Discrete VCA offers two independent high quality VCA channels, both built up out of discrete transistor cells with low CV and audio bleed, very low noise and distortion. The VCA’s feature set also enables you to experiment with the linear/exponential response curve, changing the dynamics of your sound. Play around with the gain settings for creative distortion effects in the classic KOMA style: High quality sound by default, noise by choice!
Our VCA is designed to operate with CV signals of 0V - 5V. We added attenuators (ATT) on CV Input 1 of Channel A and CV Input 2 of Channel B, to allow the user to adjust the incoming CV level. For instance: when you have a higher CV signal, you can attenuate it down to the appropriate 5V level.
More Modules are coming!
And this is not the end, we are designing and developing more modules which will be released over the coming months, together forming a full KOMA Eurorack system. We aim for each module to be a definite version of its function, which exemplifies the rich and unique KOMA sound, unique music machines with great build quality and excellent customer care.
The Dual Discrete VCA is available from today onwards from the KOMA Elektronik website and through KOMA Elektronik dealers world-wide for a MRSP of 199EUR."
KOMA Strom Mobile Now Available
KOMA Strom Mobile - How does it work?Published on Oct 3, 2018 KOMA Elektronik
"Strom Mobile is a portable power solution for music makers and everyone who needs reliable voltage source at all times! The Strom Mobile transforms the output voltage of USB power banks (5V DC) to either 9V or 12V DC to power any (music) device running on those voltages. There are two independent channels which can output individually set voltages. The Strom Mobile includes an input current feedback system to save the user from exceeding the maximum output current of the USB powerbank in use.
1 unit consists of the Strom Mobile, 1 x USB B Cable and 2 x DC Cable and an English user manual. Please note: USB Powerbanks not included."

And the press release:
BERLIN, 3 OCT 2018 - “After releasing the Field Kit and Field Kit FX, we received many requests from customers who want to be able to run their DC powered devices outside of their studios; at places where no power is available, like in an aircraft, while hiking through the mountains or simply with friends in the park.”
We developed the Strom Mobile, a standalone device that converts the 5V DC power from an USB power bank into clean low noise 9V or 12V DC power optimized to run all your music machines off the grid, for hours!
Using the Strom Mobile is very simple. It boasts two channels that both can handle a current draw up to 2.5A. You plug in an USB power bank to one of the channels (or both) and plug in the standard DC barrel connectors on the bottom side. You can select or 12V or 9V per channel. An orange light above the channel outputs shows you which output voltage you are using. Both channels also have a dedicated Current Monitor which shows you much current you are using, so you know when you reach the limit of your USB power bank and how many more devices you can add to your off the grid setup!
To get you started, Strom Mobile will be shipped with 1 x USB B cable (specifically designed version, to minimize voltage drop), 2 x DC-DC cables and User Manual. This runs one channel of the Strom Mobile. Additionally we offer a Strom Mobile Cable Pack, which includes 1 x USB B cable (specifically designed version, to minimize voltage drop), a 1-to-5 daisychain DC Cable, 2 x DC Cable and 1 polarity changing DC Cable.
We have been playing out and about with the Strom Mobile and its a great to be able to power our gear everywhere and to get inspired by the world around us. Here is a video of Hainbach and KOMA’s Wouter project ODD NARRATIVE, performing and recording at Berlin’s Tempelhof Flugfeld, all powered by Strom Mobile:
Strom Mobile together with Hainbach and Wouter
Premiered Sep 14, 2018 HAINBACH
[Odd Narrative is a project that I am running with Wouter Jaspers of KOMA Elektronik since 2017. We have pretty defined roles in how we make music - I create the scenery with tape loops and melodies, he creates the narrative trough his electro-acoustic setup. In this track which we created at my favorite place in Berlin, Tempelhof airport, he is playing two field kits, a synth I don't know, a tape loop and does cat/birdsong with his voice and Field Kit FX. I am playing a tape loop, TR606 and the OP1, mixed with the Field Kit FX. All is powered either by battery or the Koma Strom Mobile.]The Strom Mobile is available from today onwards from the KOMA Elektronik website and through KOMA Elektronik dealers world-wide for a MRSP of 175EUR, the Strom Mobile Cable Pack for a MRSP of 35EUR."
Moog Minimoog + Roland Juno 60 "Separate Ways"
Published on Oct 2, 2018 synthartist69
"Hey guys. Well, this is a version with my own twist to it. For this video, I wanted to make the bass more interesting than the cover version so I brought in the Minimoog, added the Alesis SR18 drum machine to give it more of a funky,dance but still rock edge. There are some blunders but it takes a lot of time to get something like this perfect, which I have very little of, so this is the result.. lol Thank you everyone for taking the time to view and share my videos as it helps me to continue adding more to the archive!
