LoFi Future T-420 UHG Analog Video Glitch FX Processor - Eurorack Modular Video Effects


video upload by LoFiFuture



"Availible to preorder here: https://lofifuturestore.square.site/p...

The T-420 Ultra High Grade is the latest addition to the T-420 family. It features the same core functionality as the original T-420 with some big improvements.

It is a 12HP euro rack format module but can be used as a standalone module that takes a standard 12V input with the use of an optional baseplate.

The most notable improvement is the addition of 3 new effects. They can be switched on or off via the slide switch and the intensity can be altered with the corresponding knob. Each effect can also be externally switched with a gate source, it can do this all the way up to video rate frequencies.

FX1 - Chroma Bloom (creates washes of banding colours and high saturation)

FX2 - Horizontal displace (a feedback patch that created jagged horizontal lines)

FX3 - Edge Trace (creates ringing feedback effects that trace the bright parts of an image)

There is also a bipolar CV input with a trim control, this controls the overall behaviour of the video processor and thus influences the FX listed above.

A 'soft bypass' switch allows you to mix some unaffected video signal with the effected video signal to help stabilise the signal and change the flavour of FX altogether.

A wonderful addition to any modular video synth setup or a great way to introduce some synced CRT visuals to your audio modular."

Vaski Introduces ECS-4 Triggered Switch & AM-3/3 Triple Attenuverter Matrix Eurorack Modules


video upload by Vaski Embedded

"Vaski ECS-4 Triggered switch is a Eurorack electronic switch for CV signals.

ECS-4 can create presets for other modules and lets you play with those in a performance. You can connect a trigger sequencer (as done here) to the Select inputs. Or construct new melodies piecewise from different pitch CV sequences.

In this trailer a Making Sound Machines Stolperbeats is playing 6 different percussive sounds on a single TINRS Wobbler2.

Available in May 2023 at https://www.vaski.nl/"

Vaski MUX ECS-4 prototype


"Prototype 10HP precision triggered 4x CV switch

Gate input or tap on a button selects one out of multiple sets of CVs. 4 CV channels with a combined gate output. Analog CV inputs have attenuverters.
Two or more modules can be linked together to extend the switch."



ECS-4 Triggered Switch

Get two tones out of that kick synth. Add both a modulating LFO and an envelope, but alternate between them on triggers. Switch between melody phrases or modulations with a trigger sequencer. ECS-4 has two analog CV groups with attenuverters. Trigger input or button press activates one of them. Output row repeats the selected four CV inputs and its trigger, switching always to the active input group.

Two or more ECS-4 modules can be connected together to make 4, 6, 8, 10… different triggered CV groups. Connecting flat cable included.

10 HP, skiff-friendly

AM-3/3 Triple Attenuverter Matrix

Three 1-into-3 buffered multiples with attenuverters on every output. Summing outputs make it a capable CV matrix mixer. Leds show input and output activity.

Distribute a sequencer velocity output to modules that lack CV attenuator knobs. Mix modulations in pitch CV sequences. Or just use the nine +/- 5V outputs as additional static CV knobs.

12 HP, skiff-friendly

​Liquid Sky d-vices Introduces V4CO, GLITHc & TRACT Eurorack Modules

​Liquid Sky d-vices "V4CO" and "GLITHc":

A Surrealistic Tale of abducted Modules and invisible Candles

When our manufacturing partner in Riga sent the "zero series" of our modules 14 days ago for demo video productions and demoing the products at the Superbooth Berlin, we whimsically mused about placing 27 candles in the Cathedral Of Acid to ensure a smooth delivery.

Alas, fate played its tricks, and the modules failed to arrive on time. Consequently, our dazzling new "V4CO" and its accompanying "GLITHc" expander won't be showcased at the Superbooth. If only we had genuinely lit those stoopid 27 candles in the fkkn Cathedral Of Acid!

Nevertheless, detailed information on the modules is available below, and we are launching the presale NOW.
email: HQs@liquidskyartistcollective.com

The V4CO is designed by analog synth wizard Matthias Beese (MMS / Liquid Sky artistcollective) and remixed by Thilo Goldschmitz.

GLITHc is designed by Thilo Goldschmitz (Liquid Sky artistcollective).

We offer a limited introductory price of €999 plus VAT and shipping for 100 sets of "V4CO" and the "GLITHc" circuit bending expander.

An additional 100 "V4CO" modules are available for €499 plus VAT and shipping.

Why only 100?
Supply is limited, due our production capacity being affected by the ongoing chip crisis. But of course we hope to deliver more V4CO later this year.

Chug pedal on synth

9:08 Final thoughts (talk starts)

"I like pedals that mess up synths and give them an edge. Sadly a lot of distortion, drive and fuzz pedals simply don't work well with synths. At least half the pedals of this sort I buy are almost useless on synth and never make it as far as a video. Instead they go straight into the "buyer's remorse" bag to be resold. There seems no way to tell ahead of time which will work and which will just sit there with the knobs having almost no effect. So it's an anxious lucky dip. The Chug pedal by Solar Guitars is a reasonable success on synth, tried here with the DB-01 Bassline and the Behringer Cat. Some of the gain controls do almost nothing but overall you can sculpt a pretty nasty sound and, depending on the synth, do some extra shaping with the gate control. Strangely the gate was vital to reduce noise on the DB01 but wasn't even needed on the Cat.

I bought this pedal with my own money at full price. I haven't communicated with Solar Guitars other than as a regular customer. The links here are for your interest only:

Introducing Norand Mono MK2


video upload by Norand

"Unveiling the new version of our beloved monosynth!
More info, and availability : https://norand.io/monomk2"



PUSHING THE ENVELOPE WITH MK2

Mono was always meant to be the ultimate monophonic synthesiser. After 3 years of existence and hundreds of exchanges with our vibrant community of users, it felt logical to work on a new hardware version, capable of handling the many new features we have in mind.

Analog overdrive and refined analog path
MK2 implement 4 years of internal update over our appraised discrete analog path, with the addition of a custom soft overdrive circuit at the output, multiplying mono’s sonic abilities.

Expressive 3D Keyboard
MK2 introduces 3D sensors for the mini-keyboard, allowing for expressive controls over each notes. Velocity, aftertouch, pitch bend, and vertical modulation are possible directly on the keyboard.

Continuous sequencer strip
3D sensors are also used for the sequencer and page keys, which allow for dozens of new musical features, like live play-head, multi-pattern morphing, and precise control over the patterns.

High resolution automation
MK2 uses a 1024 PPQN sequencer system, which allow automations to be recorded at a very-high definition with the knobs and keys. The 3D sequencer strip allow for precise creation and edition of these automation using curve mode.

Full machined alluminum body
Your voice has been heard! MK2 was redesigned with a full machined aluminium body. A lot of attention was given to every details.

Tons of interface improvement
A full row of button has been added to reflect the improvement made on the software over the years. All the LEDs are now RGB, with smart color coding for a clearer interface.

Unboxing // AnalogFX SER-2020 // Part 1 // No Talking


video upload by LESINDES

"Rebuilt of the ultra rare SYNTON SYRINX Dutch keyboard synth.

I cannot compare but the unusual filter setting of 2 bandpass and 1 lowpass VCFs, with 4 different routings give a lot of modulation freedom and rendition of rather unusual sounds.

Since I am not a fan of black gear. I tried my best an contacted ANALOG FX. And they had been so kind as to manufacture a custom blue face synth which I have only seen in some preproductions units and, of course, in the historical SYNRINX which was available also in red.

So this is the first touch of synth tweaking is a bit rough sometimes ;-)

Have fun!"
