5U Meow Module

5U MODULAR CAT via CatSynth

"The 5U modular system comes with its own singing cat module. We at CatSynth would love to get a hold of this. We also see a Twinpeaks filter (Epoch Modular / Rob Hordijk) in the upper rack."

Roland Jupiter-X: The Vocoder: Quick Sounds

Published on Mar 17, 2020 MR TUNA Music

"Found the vocoder on the Jupiter-X today and here we are.
WOW. What a sound. It's honestly the best (and clearest) sound Ive gotten from a vocoder in my studio and definitely beats out the System-8 for it's polyphony count and awesome effects.
There are only two vocoder presets built into the JP-X with very limited control (cutoff, resonance, high pass, vibrato, and amp envelope), but the effects really shine, and layer voices on top of each other in mono really had me going.

10 Electronic Project Ideas To Do Whilst In Self Isolation, Electronics/Music

Published on Mar 17, 2020 LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER

"The most important thing to do in times like these is try and stay positive while doing everything you can to help.

These projects range from cheap things to slightly more pricey and also trust on the fact that logistics services are still very much intact.

-3D printers, i don't think it will be very long until a number of open source ventilator plans will be public , and will likely involve 3d printers, so if your community does not have one. maybe look into it! Lulzbot is pretty snazzy, but there are many other options :- https://www.lulzbot.com/

-Atari console and baby 10 step sequencers all it takes is a quick search on the internet to bombarded with great resources!

Evening Tide - An Ambient Synth Improv (Blofeld, Specular Tempus, Arduino, reface CP)

Published on Mar 17, 2020 Lanthan O'Ide

"A relaxed jam session with FM electric piano sounds, spiced up up a little pitch bending thanks to a DIY-MIDI-controller.
Enjoy! ^^
================================
For those playing along at home:
The key is G major, the tempo is not fixed and changes during the track.
================================
For those interested in the wiring:
I'm using the reface CP only as a master keyboard this time. It sends its MIDI-signals to my custom MIDI controller, which passes them on to the Blofeld.
Said controller has an Arduino inside, and also has inputs for sustain and expression pedals. It also feeds MIDI signals to the Blofeld whenever I use the pedals.
In this case, it is translating an epression pedal to pitch bend commands.
This allows me to bend down my sounds without taking my hands of the keys! :D

...and the yellow lights show the position of the pedals, in case you are wondering.
The left one shows the sustain pedal, the four right ones the expression pedal. :)

Anyways, continuing with the setup description:
The audio from the Blofeld is passed through my trusty Specular Tempus, the output of the ST goes straight to my audio interface where it is recorded.
================================
For those interested in the sound design:
Yes, those are real fm sounds, in that they are created by a sine wave oscillator being frequency modulated.
The amount of frequency modulation is set by the filter envelope.

However, the modulating oscillator uses a wavetable. It is sort of pretending to be a sinewave oscillator that's being frequency modulated.
- which it has to, because the Blofeld doesn't have enough oscillators to emulate the 6 operators of a DX7 ;-)
By changing the position of the wavetable with velocity sensitivity, the overall sound changes dramatically, which allows for this patch to be played quite expressively."
