Euclidean Sequencer Preview for iOS
video upload by Paul the MusicMan
"Euclidean Sequencer is an alternative incarnation of the classic step sequencer that has become very popular in the modular realm. It is based on Euclidean rhythms developed by computer scientist Godfried Toussaint in 2004. Euclidean rhythms have their roots in Greek mathematician Euclid’s algorithm, which involves using the greatest common divisor of two numbers to place hits in a sequence as evenly as possible across a set timing divisions.
In practice this is actually simpler than you might think, and Euclidean Sequencer is a great way to auto generate complex musical sequences with no prior knowledge of how it actually works.
You can define up to 4 Euclidean rhythm parts, each part is referred to as a band. The bands are labelled A-D and colour coded RED, ORANGE, GREEN and CYAN. Together these 4 bands create a pattern, and you can create up to 16 seperate patterns per song patch.
Since each band can specify its own note sequence and output MIDI channel, you can create some quite sophisticated rythms patterns, driving 4 seperate instruments at once. Even better you can seamlessly switch patterns to create even longer evolving sequences. Patterns follow a specified key, scale, or defined chord.
You can even use MIDI input to automatically make note sequences conform to the currently playing chords, remotely enable bands and seamlessly switch patterns."
ARPchives LIVE! Episode 18: A Conversation with David Van Pelt
video upload by Alan R. Pearlman Foundation
Update: new Full Edit video.
https://alanrpearlmanfoundation.org/
"FYI: As will happen sometimes in live performances, we had some technical difficulties (i.e. the internet decided to be erratic several times in the beginning...). David Van Pelt was a true trooper, though our hostess could have chilled a bit. We will publish an edited version in the next few days! ARPCHIVES LIVE! is back! Our first guest of the year is David Van Pelt who also plays synthesizer in Acolyte*, a prog band from Australia. We'll have an interview, some video and demos and talk about the recent addition to his synth family, how he got into ARPs in the first place, his beautiful music, band and the synth scene in Australia.
Electrosmith Introduces the Daisy Patch Submodule DSP Platform for Eurorack
Press release follows:
Music tech innovators Electrosmith have announced a new DSP platform which promises to reshape the Eurorack landscape with powerful, high fidelity audio products called the Daisy Patch Submodule.
The Daisy Patch Submodule builds upon the successful Daisy Kickstarter campaign with a new dev board specifically catered to the creation of Eurorack modules.
MSRP: $39.95
The Daisy Patch Submodule is a DSP platform for Eurorack synthesizer modules. It features a lightning fast STM32 processor, high fidelity stereo audio codec, and enough RAM for 10 minute long buffers - all with standard signal levels and conditioning for the Eurorack ecosystem. Simply design your carrier board, and let the Patch Submodule do the rest!
Create your dream Eurorack module with the Daisy Patch SM!
Tech Specs:
- STM32 processor at 480MHz, 96kHz / 24-bit audio, RAM for up to 10 minute audio buffers
- Stereo audio IO, x12 ADC inputs ( 16-bit bipolar CV or potentiometer), x2 CV outputs (12-bit), x2 gate inputs, x2 gate outputs, x12 GPIO
- Flash firmware over USB via open source web programmer
- Support for SDDMC, SPI, UART, I2C, and USB
- FCC / CE Tested and Compliant
Getting Started Hardware:
Get started with the Daisy Patch Submodule quickly with their dedicated Eurorack interface, the patch.Init(). The patch.Init() is a 10HP Eurorack module that breaks out all of the Daisy Patch Submodule pins to jacks, pots, switches, and LEDs.

The patch.Init() is our exploratory modular interface for the Daisy Patch Submodule. Open-source both in hardware and firmware, the patch.Init() is the perfect jumping off point for your next modular DSP project. From ethereal reverbs, glitchy processors, comprehensive samplers, and complex oscillators, the patch.Init() can be any module you need it to be. Looking to create your own commercial module? Our front panel design is completely open-source (MIT). Just create your interface, add the Patch Submodule to the back, and you are off to the races with industry leading specs in an accessible, affordable package.
The patch.Init() comes with x1 Daisy Patch Submodule.

"In this video we are trying to show the versatility in what the Rachael module can accomplish. This modules is a great companion to the Deckards Voice module, but can function as a stand-alone module as well."

Caravansary キャラバンサライ / Kitaro 喜多郎 COVER
video upload by ltpstan
"I thought about re-tracking some of my older videos using the new set up. Here it is!I hope to continue more soon.
Some thoughts on this piece while playing: I always get out of 'feeling' during the first part of 'Caravansary', it is not easy to get into the feel very quickly. Maybe this tempo is slightly slower if you notice Kitaro's more recent live versions, the tempo is slightly faster than this. However, I noticed after moving onto the next phrases, the 'feeling' starts to get in sync with the music. Very interesting experience for this song.."
