ludoWic music

"LudoWic performed the track OVERDOSE live as part of the 'LudoWic Livestream - Katana ZERO Soundtrack' concert on November 28, 2020"

Some great synth spotting in this one.

Shakmat Releases Aeolus Seeds & Aeolus Mixer Quadraphonic Oriented Modules



See the dealers on the right for availibility. The Aeolus Seeds & Aeolus Mixer were announced at Superbooth 19.

via Shakmat:

"This 7th of december, Shakmat releases the Aeolus Seeds and Aeolus Mixer. Both modules are dedicated to quadraphonic spatialization but are also suited to a wide range of applications.

The Aeolus Seeds

The modulator!

Aeolus Seeds is crafted to produce movements in a quadraphonic space. With it's fully analog signal path, the module architecture is based on four VCAs driven by a handy multi-modulation source : quadrature sine, randomness, envelops, granulizer...

The CV output provides several handful parameters, bringing more life into your quadraphonic patches! Aeolus Seeds is a perfect tool for quadraphonic setups but has many other applications such as vector synthesis, audio morphing or stereo duties, all in 10HP!"
The Aeolus Mixer

The merger!
Aeolus Mixer is a 6HP quadraphonic unity mixer. Three quadraphonic inputs and two stereo outputs are mixed to provide a quadraphonic output with 5.1 compatibility.
Both modules will be available
as DIY kits and assembled units.

Assembled units

Aeolus Seeds: 259 €/$
Aeolus Mixer: 159 €/$
DIY Kits

Aeolus Seeds: 189 €/$
Aeolus Mixer: 119 €/$

Novation Circuit - Conquest


Payton Carter

"Hey y'all, it's time for another Circuit video! After going through half a dozen other instruments, I find that I really just gel with the Circuit. There's something about the simplicity in its workflow. It just makes songwriting fast and fun. I'll never be able to give it up!

Between a new baby and prime mountain biking season here in the desert, there's been little time for music making, so it felt good to finally get something recorded. This track uses the blankfor.ms Circuit pack. There are some awesome atmospheric synth patches in this pack. I also really enjoyed using the unconventional samples, mostly noise and foley-ish bits. Please excuse the multiple cuts in the video; transitions between sessions weren't sounding quite right, so I patched them together manually in post."

Noise Engineering Imitor Versio Demos



From the blog: https://www.noiseengineering.us/blog/...

Playlist:

1. Blog: Imitor Versio's LFO
This is the main tone-shaping parameter on Imitor Versio: it adds filtering and modulation to the delay lines, massively changing their flavor. The filter is a slightly resonant and extremely wide bandpass filter. Traditional delays, like ones based on tape or BBDs, don’t perfectly repeat the input signal: they tend to filter and shape the sound before repeating it, and this control lets you add in some of that not-perfect-and-totally-awesome flavor.

LFO is bipolar, so you get a pretty clean delay line with LFO centered. To the left, mild and random modulation is added to the delay lines. To the right, the modulation is a triangle LFO. And since it’s a resonant filter, at the extremes, it can oscillate on its own just a little bit and create some really interesting effects (referred to affectionately here at NE as the bees and whales. We do like our animals.).
2. Blog: Imitor Versio's Time and Spread
Time and Spread are the main timing controls for Imitor Versio and are highly dependent on each other. Spread controls the total amount of time the 12 taps take from a sound being input to the last tap playing. Time is similar to a predelay: it offsets the time between a sound being input and the first tap playing. It also squishes the taps into the remaining amount of time, so a longer predelay means faster tap firing since they occupy a smaller amount of the total time.

These controls can also be clocked, and act as clock dividers/multipliers when dealing with a tapped-in tempo or a clock input.
3. Blog: Imitor Versio's feedback control, Regen
Regen is the feedback control on Imitor Versio. This is, arguably, the most important control on IV: it controls how long the delay tail is, and past 3:00 on the knob, it ducks the delay based on the input signal, so you can do some sidechain compression effects in the module itself. And, similar to Desmodus Versio, it can create infinite feedback with delay tails that go on forever.
4. Blog: Imitor Versio's switches
The bottom switch on Imitor Versio controls the volume of the 12 taps: equal in the center, a decrescendo to the left, and a crescendo to the right. You can use the crescendo setting, for instance, to create “reverse” delays, with dynamics that are the opposite of a traditional delay. Or, you can use the decrescendo to create something like that bouncing ball effect we mentioned in the Skew section. = is probably my favorite when I’m making delays with high Regen settings, because of how massive the delay tail gets -- what can I say, I like giant walls of sound.

The top switch on Imitor Versio will be familiar to Desmodus fans, mostly because, well, it’s the same switch as is featured on the Desmodus. This switch changes how the feedback loop on IV is processed: in LIM mode, a clean limiter is applied, which doesn’t change much in terms of tone of the delay. DST mode, however, adds a distortion to the feedback loop, giving you some pretty gnarly tones with high Regen settings. And finally, SHM adds a +1 octave pitch shift to the loop, so you can get some nice pitch-shifted delays going. Who says delays can’t be pretty, too??

Low Frequency Expander providing Top Note Aftertouch for OB6


Steve Hunt

"My Yorick Tech LFE is out of shot. Notice how ONLY the highest note I play is getting vibrato from aftertouch! It's taking normal channel aftertouch from the OB6, working out which is the highest note I'm playing and then sends aftertouch back to the OB6, but only on the highest note. It can also send for the lowest, first or latest notes instead. Most of the benefits of a poly aftertouch keyboard but using a standard synth with mono (channel) aftertouch.

Sorry about the shaky camera!

"Roland's crowning achievement at the end of the analog age -- it simply doesn't get better than this. SIXTEEN true analog VCOs (this is the Rev 4 version, with Curtis VCO chips and juicier Roland proprietary filters), and warm VCAs. Two oscs per 8 amazing voices, unison, detune, powerful modulation with deep programming possibilities. The beautiful filters, and subtly drifty oscillators make this pure analogue heaven. This synth sounds AMAZING..."
