"New Sampler Scrubbing Features + Usability Fixes + Bugfixes

scrubbing code has been added such that if the sampler is not looping and you change start, length or Xfade, there are no glitches that can be heard. It now sounds like a tape head or vinyl record moving. Modulating start/length now is also smooth because it uses the same scrubbing code.

start/length logic has been changed so there is no more “inversing” of the from / to playback region. This should make it easier to use the sampler and to know what’s happening.

A level setting has been added per-sample so you can adjust the level for each of the 8 samples in the sampler module. This setting also allows inverting the sample playback (range is -1.0 to 1.0).

various other bugs in the sampler were fixed in the process and the code cleaned up and optimized.

New Quad SVF + Bugfixes + Optimizations

The SVF now has 4 inputs and 20 outputs (4x5). It’s now a quad-filter, which means you have 4 independent filters in one module. Each filter has 5 outputs, and the name of the outputs has been shortened to HP, LP, BP, PK and NT.

It doesn’t matter if you use 1, 2, 3 or 4 of the filters because the CPU cost is the same. Filter processing is done in parallel on the CPU now so this change does not increase CPU usage.

Cutoff / resonance mod inputs also had an issue previously where the mod signal would be scaled on the inputs, this has now been fixed. It’s possible that similar issues were present on some mod inputs of other modules, so this fix should take care of that as well."

"The Resonant Garden is an acoustic-electronic hybrid designed to create anything from beats and oddities to dense sound scapes.

The garden essentially utilizes three Alter circuits but each equipped with a mic pre-amp, and 4 garden (stringed) panels for generating acoustics. By plucking, rubbing, tapping or even bowing, those micro-acoustic sounds become amplified and effected by the Alter in any number of ways. In essence, the garden is a large microphone designed to pick up vibrations."

"Korg SQ-10 triggering a Korg MS-50"

via this auction

"Legendary Korg SQ-10 3 channel analog sequencer. Perfect combo with MS-10, MS-20 and MS-50 as well as any analog synth have CV/Gate in. Channel A & B has switchable for +/- 1V and +/- 5V, Channel C is 0V-5V.

The unit is working but cosmetically poor with some rust with this grand father of portable analog sequencer."

Moog Matriarch - Paraphonic Pad Fun

Published on Sep 14, 2019 Expanding Sound

"This was a request from a couple of fellow youtubers. My first Matriarch exploration video was mostly in Monophonic mode, not for any particular reason other than I was having fun. A couple people asked me to do some work in paraphonic mode to show some chords and pads on the Matriarch. I was happy to oblige!
Theres something to be said about an inspiring instrument. I can really see the draw towards modular setups after playing with the Matriarch the last few days. You never want to stop manipulating the tone. The possibilities feel exciting, and endless. One more patch here, one more tweak there.
This video is based off very simple chord progressions, for the first couple minutes just a 4 to a 5 chord in E, having fun with the sound. Although I do change the oscillator waveforms in the video, I change them uniformly. My Crumar Stratus has a mode that allows you to seesaw oscillator waveform (between Square and Sawtooth, I think) with every keystroke. Although I love my Stratus, I always thought that feature sounded dumb. With the Matriarch I was more concerned with making it sound pleasant to my ears. And it does. Hopefully you enjoy it, and it shines some light onto some nice warm pad sounds you can make with this beautiful synth."
