Published on Aug 25, 2019 Todd Barton

"Part 2 of my look into the Red Panel by Buchla 158 Sine-Sawtooth Generator with a brief gander at the 156 Voltage Processor which is essential to any 100 system and especially to the 158. Stay tuned for Part 3"

electra.one with a soft synth

Published on Aug 25, 2019 Martin Pavlas

"A frequent question is if electra.one MIDI controller will work with soft synths and VSTs. Here is a short demo of using MIDI CC with Absynth 5. For more information visit https://www.electra.one/

Electra.one is connected to Mac with a USB cable and ESI KeyControl 25 is connected to Electra's USB host port.

Three MIDI CCs are used to control Absynth 5's oscillator frequency, filter cutoff and resonance."

Introducing reSEMble

Published on Aug 25, 2019 Randy Piscione

"This is the maiden voyage of reSEMble, a single-panel, single-voice synth inspired by the Oberheim SEM, for Eurorack. More info below.

This is a prototype panel, home made (obvious I know) but the building blocks are available from PM Foundations. The panel is currently in Front Panel Designer, but I have not ordered one yet. The 'modules' can be built as standalone Eurorack modules or built behind the reSEMble panel. There is no point-to-point wiring. All connections are made with ribbon cables that run from the back of each module to a single busboard.

We haven’t decided how to market / sell it yet, or even if there is enough demand to bother, but I’m definitely making another one for myself. The 3 VCOs, VCF and two EGs are based on the SEM, but, in addition to a 3rd VCO, there are a few other enhancements, including an expanded LFO, Noise, sample and hold, a wavefolder and more modulation and routing options.

This is not a clone of an SEM. Unlike someone who shall remain nameless but whose initials are UB, we actually sent a note to Tom Oberheim, who forwarded our note to a friend of his, who spent some time on the phone with me. He encouraged us to take Tom’s work and build on it, which we did. The combination of toggles and expanded module functionality replace approximately 80 patchcords."

Chock Full o' Filters

Published on Aug 25, 2019 juanito moore

Juanito Moore is the man behind Modular for the Masses, and will be part of the speaker line-up at Knobcon this year.

"Hardware Jam weekend challenge. The challenge was to use filters, filters filters FILTERS!!! I used filters as oscillators and as a little bongo drum sound, and of course to modify the drums and keyboard noodling. Now, a high quality filter will self-oscillate in a very pure sine wave, which doesn't have any harmonics for a 2nd filter to work with, so I needed to use a square wave for the "keyboard" part. Square waves have lots of harmonics to filter out in interesting ways. Check out the cheap Chinese reverb effects module -- these modules are SO GOOD. Highly recommended.

Waldorf Nave & Eurorack Jam (iOS/iPad + Analog Modular Synth)

Published on Aug 25, 2019 DreamsOfWires

"A rough session revisiting an old recording I made using Nave and Magellan on the iPad a couple of years ago, this time using the AJH MiniMod system for real analog synth sounds.

The original Magellan patch used 6 VCO's and 4 filters in parallel (audio sent to 4 different filters). This Eurorack version uses 3 VCO's and 2 filters in series (output of one filter into the next), although the second is a dual filter (AJH Gemini - Dual mode) and is being used to create a stereo effect/movement.

The output of the Transistor Ladder Filter is sent to the Gemini, and I'm using it's Freq (cutoff) to find sweet spots.

I created the Nave patch myself, and it uses the built-in arpeggiator. Midisteps (iPad app) is sending note information to Nave's arp, and patterns to the Expert Sleepers FH-2, which is sending CV/Gate to the modular synth.

Recorded initially in AUM on an iPad, then exported to Reaper DAW for delay, reverb, lose mixing.

MiniBrute 2S & VCV Rack - First Patch

Published on Aug 25, 2019 Omri Cohen

That rack with the screen makes me want a large slim virtual rack.

"Oh boy... Arturia sent me the MiniBrute 2S and the RackBrute 3U (thank you Arturia!), and this is literally my first patch with it. I opened the boxes, connected everything, and built this patch. I'm still not really using the RackBrute, but I have a feeling that it will not take long until this case will be full...
Anyway, I'm planning to do a "how does it work with VCV Rack" kind of video so let me know if there is anything specific you would like to know, and I will do my best to include it in the video.

Analogue Solutions PRO TIP: Impulse Command Controlling Pitch via the 16-Step Sequencer

Published on Aug 25, 2019 Analogue Solutions

"Analogue Solutions Impulse Command PRO TIP!

The IC's 16-step CV sequencer is primarily used for modulation since the MIDI Note Loop sequencer would ordinarily be used for note control.

However, you can patch (with a cable!) the CV sequencer output to
the Pitch control input jack if you want the step sequencer to also control pitch.

Note: we do not sell the LED patch cables. The blue panel is a very limited edition version.

Have fun!"

Therevox ET-4.2 Analog Synth w/ Ribbon Controller

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Inspired by the Ondes Martenot (1928) and the Electro-Theremin (1950), the ET-4 is controlled by moving a finger along a reference keyboard shaped to provide tactile feedback. Dual pressure sensitive intensity keys control the amplitude of the ET-4's two independent analog oscillators. Combined with a low-pass filter, white noise generator and internal spring reverb the ET-4 is an expressive and versatile performance instrument. The is the standard model, the adds an effects loop and other features and the also adds MIDI over USB output. Every ET-4 is individually hand crafted in Canada using high quality components and select North American Walnut."
