Runningonair - Wonders of the Modern Age

Published on May 18, 2020 Runningonair

"In the tradition of 'Koyaanisqatsi' and the spirit of 'The future ain’t what it was', 'Wonders of the Modern Age' is a tongue in cheek reflection on some of the new found optimism present in the 1990s after the end of the cold war and before the gradual realisation of humanity's impact on the environment.

All video is from 1994 or before and all sounds come from the Roland SC-7 sound canvas module released in 1992.

Here, we're using Mimetic Digitalis and Pons Asinorum to create a sequence with arbitrary step length. MD is sequencing Cursus Iteritas Percido and the timing of the sequence is varied further by Lapsus Os.

"The 4027 VCO is a 10HP Eurorack filter adaptation of the colorful VCO-2 tone source from the ARP 2600 synthesizer. You know…that all analog, all discrete components, SAWTOOTH core packed with the SINE, TRIANGLE, and PULSE w/ PWM! If you’re looking for warm, fat analog synthesizer tones – 4027 VCO is the one for you.

In bringing that special tone to life the 4027 VCO keeps the circuit as close to the original as possible: a matched transistor pair, an Interfet premium dual FET can (because that beautiful Sine is worth it), temperature compensation resistor for tuning stability, low ESR styrene oscillation capacitor, 5-NPN monolithic substrate transistor array, precision Tune and Tracking trimmers, and the 70s spec op amps which are still being offered today. The 4027 VCO has requisite LDO voltage conditioning to isolate the oscillator tuning from your systems power rails. While each module is fully tested and calibrated, it may need minor TUNE trimmer correction after warm-up to account for variances in different systems. This limited quantity module is lovingly hand-crafted in the USA.
