X1L3 - MANIPULATOR - control cluster - eurorack module - demo run

video upload by X1L3

Update: harsh noise vid added further below.

"Demo track featuring manipulator + radio module set up.
What it is and where to get it - below:

Available at:
https://x1l3.bigcartel.com/

^^^^^ (probably about a day after this vid goes live)

Manipulator is a 22hp manual control module. Geared up for live performance, ambient and noise rigs and for studio work where you might want to live jam for a while and see what happens and where a track goes or how a sound design piece might evolve through hands on experimentation.

Full tech details of the module are on the bigcartel listing, but here's an overview of what's going on here in the demo.

I've got the manipulator hooked up to a radio module. The radio is passed through a low pass filter and then into a vca.

Gates A1 and A2 are being used to switch channels on the radio. X axis on joystick A is being used to sweep the low pass filter and a third gate on B1 is being used to fully open the otherwise closed vca. This allows me to manually filter the radio output and gate it in time with the track.

The bulk of the track was already put together for this in the daw and all i needed to do was add the actual module demo section. I let the section of track where the modules are being animated and used run in a loop and just jammed the radio set up with a daw track recording until i got lucky and had what i considered to be a decent pass. It turned out pretty good.

Undoubtably a useful module for anyone after a good manual control section. Having one in my power electronix suitcase i can say from experience that it really does make already abstract and obscure modules shine.

Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed the vid and enjoy using the module if you choose to pick one up."

Next Generation Eurorack Bursts! // AJH Synth Multi Burst Envelopes

video upload by DivKidVideo

"Here we have the new Multi Burst Envelopes Eurorack module from AJH Synth. It takes a classic burst functions and elevates that up a level by bursting envelopes (rather than just triggers) and also allowing you to slope in or out the bursts. This would take a VCA with an envelope to make a traditional burst rise or fall over it’s burst period, so a handy and musical addition for this module. There’s CV control over all parameters and options to merge internal and external clocks for polyrhythms as well as step through the burst stages with any gate or trigger pattern you’d like to throw at it."
