Live stereo input granular demo for the Percussa mSSP

Published on Dec 12, 2018 PERCUSSA

Percussa mSSP on Kickstarter

"Live stereo input granular demo on the percussa mssp kickstarter prototype. The patch in the mSSP consists of a granular module, 2 LFOs for start and pan modulation, an SVF before the granular input, and a delay and reverb module after the granular. The granular has a built in recorder with overdubbing and dry/wet controls. All granular parameters can be modulated using internal or external signals and it's possible to run multiple granulars in parallel, sending their stereo outputs to the 4 outputs of the mSSP. The mSSP will come with a PC/Mac editor to edit all patches. All synthesis and FX are done on the mSSP at 96kHz 32-bit. Output of the mSSP recorded using the big SSP at 96kHz 32-bit, and synced to video afterwards. Input signal for the mSSP was 2 STOs + 1 FUNCTION by make noise."

Update: some additional info from this kickstarter post:

"The granular can load WAV files as well, instead of using a live input. You have the following parameters to play with, which can also be modulated using audio or CV signals, internal or external:

Start of Grain Selection Window
Length of Grain Selection Window
Grain Level
Grain Frequency
Grain Duration
Number of Grains
Tuning
PItch
Frequency Modulation
Randomization of Grain start and Duration of Grains
Dub factor for overdubbing
Blend factor for Dry/Wet mix of Live input / Granular output
Pan position
Randomization of the Pan Position "

XOR Electronics NerdSeq - PART 5 - INDEX:

00:00 Introduction to the ASLx FX which allows us to control Automator (e.g. LFO) parameters ‘per step

1:07 Description of the simple patch used, without FXs, before we start applying FXs

2:34 A recap of the Automator menu and specifically the LFO and LFO’s Parameters

5:51 Adding the FX: ASLn to Pattern-Steps. We can start and stop the LFO ‘per step’ and use the ASLn FX to control a bunch of other Automator (LFO) parameters ‘per step’ - e.g. LFO Shape, LFO Speed, LFO Shape, LFO Phase, etc…

11:36 RNDM FX (Randomize the parameter of the next FX)

15:30 SPFX (a set of Special FXs) - With these you can activate specific commands on any Pattern-Step, e.g. Stop Track at End of Pattern, Stop Track Now, Stop Song Now…
Also,
- a quick summary of available Clock/Reset ‘output’ commands
a quick summary of FX ‘Reset’ commands

20:22 SPFX RANDOM JUMP (Jump to another step within that current pattern)
22:50 - A suggestion about the RANDOM JUMP functionality

24:32 - Just a mention of ReSync FXs commands

24:53 BPM FX - Ability to change project BPM ‘per step!’

27:51 BASE FX. Controlling pattern’s pitch transposition ‘per step’

29:51 End of Section and more…

Modular :: Buchla Drones :: 3 Presets

"A series of three simple drones created on a Buchla 200e (Skylab) system. I switch between 3 presets on the same basic patch (in other words, no cables moved)."

No mention what happened to them, but if I had to guess on the Waldorf Q, the Nextel paint got sticky and someone attempted the talcum powder fix. Apparently you can coat stick plastics with talcum power and then give them a light wipe to clean any excess off. The silo knobs likely broke apart, which actually happened to me on my XTk as you can see here.

That said it looks like a job gone horribly wrong. I was going to say the A6 and Fizmo faired better, but check out the cigarette stains on the keys, dirt on the surface, and missing knobs. They look like they've been stored in an outdoor shed. The listings state they are estate sales. There are other synths listed including an EMU PK-6 Proteus keyboard, XK-6 Extreme Keys, Proteus 2000 rack synth, and two Yamaha EX5s. On the non synth front there's a Porsche steering wheel for anyone interested! Click on "See other items" to right of the seller's name after click any of the three auction links above.

"The Auto Drone is an experimental musical instrument that allows you to create low frequency drones and other experimental sounds. This instrument runs on 3 oscillators that can be detuned and PWM shifted to create complex waveform outputs. The Reverb, Delay and Filter effects add to the complexity of the waveform."

"This iOS version of the Wicks Looper is a soft-synth reproduction of a hardware synth that I build in my Etsy store. This looper functions as close as possible to the original unit and will allow many more people to experience the sounds it produces as I only get to make a few units a month."
