The legend of BRENSO’s pulse-width modulation

video upload by Frap Tools

"PWM is a huge part of everyday electronics, but it is also a classic synth sound, to the point it reached a cult (if not meme) status.

A Eurorack oscillator like BRENSO wouldn't have been completed without a PWM section, and today we're exploring it in detail. It might not be the most obvious feature, since it is nestled into the timbre modulation section, but it is capable of wild timbers.

Pulse-Width Modulation and Sync with BRENSO | East Coast Sounds 1 | Frap Ideas

"A recent article on @PerfectCircuit’s blog inspired this exploration beyond the label of "West Coast" synthesis. We thus focused on two techniques for the BRENSO oscillator that go beyond the classic complex oscillator's palette: PWM and sync."

Patch Tuesday | 16-Step Drum Sequencer | Route 4, Step 8, Compare 2

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"Welcome back to Patch Tuesday! This week, Boris shows us how to create a 16-step drum sequencer using Step 8, Compare 2 and Route 4. Different sounds are triggered, according to the positions of Step 8's sliders.

Have fun patching!"

Analogue Solutions Ample Synthesizer "Percussion Jacks" Demo

video upload by Analogue Solutions

"Quick: Here's an inspiring and handy rhythm-making feature of the Ample synth!

Patch the built-in noise (snare) into one of Ample's audio-ins, adjust the pattern to taste, and then use the patch outputs (16ths) to your hats and your kick of choice (4/4).

These can be patched to other analogue synths, eurorack, or other compatible sound sources.

Having ready-to-go patterns at your fingertips is useful while using Ample with your modular or other synthesizers.

THE BEST DESKTOP SYNTH OF ALL
Ample combines the best elements of several of our recent products.

-The sound elements of Fusebox

-Jack patch points of Concussor Eurorack

-Patch pin matrix of Vostok

-Echo from Dr Strangelove

-Sequencer and CV touch pads of Generator

It shares all this yet still has its own sound!

Ample can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be

We have given this synth a large and diverse number of controls, that alongside the patch sockets, will give even the best and most experienced synthesist endless possibilities.

We have presented the controls in a user-friendly and familiar synth layout that, together with this manual and other resources, enables even the new user to get great sounds."
