Jupiter-X vs. System-8: The Jupiter-8 Engine No Talking

Published on Mar 8, 2020 MR TUNA Music

"Its the showdown you've been waiting for! Two amazing synths, both vying for the number one spot of King Jupiter Clone..... but which will reign supreme? How will we even know without a real JP-8 to compare against? Perhaps this is all in vain. Perhaps we've all wasted our time. But maybe, just maybe, the debate between these two synthesizers is more than an age old question... more than the sum of their sounds. Is it wrong to love two synths? Is it beautiful to appreciate their differences? Or to stare into the mirror and see not yourself, but all of your possibilities and potentials like a trillion different realities folding onto each other like thin sheets of metal forming a single blade??

This is Jupiter vs. Jupiter. Or IS IT????"

A dystopian view of spring time. A fragile vocal wrapped in a synthy rain wash underpinned by a minimal compu-rhythm.

No Place to rest my Head - Felt Instruments, Eurorack, DrumBrute, VCV Rack, O Coast

Here are some patch notes:
--------------------------
- I'm sequencing the O Coast with the Keystep, and I'm splitting the gate output to trigger the O Coast and also to clock it.
- With the synced random voltage of the O Coast, I'm modulating its decay time, and also the envelope time of the cycling envelope, which modulated the multiply.
- I'm also sending pink noise to its FM input.
- The O Coast is going into the Onset input of Arbhar, which is recording the O Coast and processing it.
- I have a piano from Felt Instruments recorded into Magneto, which is going through LedRover for some extra grit, and from there to Microcell in Granular mode.
- I'm triggering the revers function of Magneto with random triggers from VCV Rack.
- I have a drum loop recorded into Morphagene, but also playing live on the DrumBrute so it's nice and glitchy.
- Morphagene is then going through ReduXer, and its CV output is modulating the reduction amount, and in VCV Rack, it goes through a phaser.
- I'm also modulating the Gene Size, Slide, and Varispeed with the 1U Noise Tools module.
- I have another instrument from Felt Instruments playing unsynced tremolo into the Mimeohpon.
- Also there, I trigger the flip function with random triggers from VCV Rack.
- I have white noise going into Freak set to the Vortex filter, and from there it's going into the Disting in reverb mode.
- I'm modulating the cutoff point of both channels with random voltage coming from VCV Rack.
- From there, the signal goes into Chronoblob 2 in VCV Rack and creates those bubbly glitchy sounds."

Novation Circuit - Endurance

Published on Mar 7, 2020 Payton Carter

"I'm a terrible guitarist (see the end of the video), but I'm slightly less terrible when I can cut out the half-decent parts! For this jam, I noodled around on my guitar for about five minutes with some chords in mind. I then chopped up the samples in Reaper and imported them into the Circuit. I'm playing the guitar samples on drum track 4 with the sample flip feature. The synth patches are from Cuckoo's complete Circuit pack, and the drum samples are from the factory Circuit pack."
