Modular DIY 07 - Befaco Chopping Kinky


Published on Sep 18, 2019 Molten Music Technology

"The Chopping Kinky is a dual channel cross modulating wave folding module that will turn your sine waves into blobs of morphing goo. It's thick, delicious and chewable. Befaco sent me a kit to build and here's the long winded result. I'll be doing another video of the Chopping Kinky in action but there's a short demo at the end.

Why PATCHBAYS are AWESOME


Published on Sep 18, 2019 once upon a synth

"I go over how I use patchbays in my small home studio to generate new ideas. I cover the basics of how they work and then I go over some examples of how I use them in practice. This is not so much a tutorial on how patchbays work technically but it's more a showcase of how they help inspire creativity."
