Recording - Polyphonic Modular Patch


Recording - Polyphonic Modular Patch from BendingBus on Vimeo.

"Recording some arpeggiated chords today; modular is wired up for 3-note polyphonic.

Using a MOTM-650 tuned to pure intonation, which is outputting CV to three oscillators and envelopes. Those three tones are then mixed in a Macbeth 'Filter B' in band-pass mode to get rid of highs/lows, and focus on the midrange. Using a LFO into the filter to move it around a bit thereby creating a tremolo effect, and manually riding the CV on that.

Mono out from the modular into a Pendulum tube preamp (vintage Mullard) for some overdrive to bring out the harmonics. Liking the "small" mellow tones from this patch."

Endangered Audio Research AD4096 + Funk Box

Endangered Audio Research AD4096 + Funkbox Rhythm Ace Drum Machine
Endangered Audio Research AD4096 + Korg iMS20

"This is a demo of the now legendary, long-out-of-circulation Endangered Audio Research AD4096, with the Funk Box TR77 running through it. Very few videos show what the AD4096's Infinity Mode is useful for, which is crazy to me, because I feel like that's the best, most unique part of this pedal. Infinity Mode can be tuned to creep on the edge of self-oscillation in a really organic way. New signal pushes old signal out - and in that way it's almost like a looper, or even a tape bleed emulator.

Although a guitar pedal, mixing artists contact us all the time to tell us how they use the AD4096 on drum busses - especially for dub music! I think the AD4096 is killer on drums. You can get a really loose spring-reverb-like tone from short delays.

The Momentary Expand switch shorts the Depth pot and sends it into self-oscillation - the faster the clock speed (the Time knob turned to the right - "backwards" of how most pedals work), the faster it will run wildly into speaker-blasting range. However, with Infinity Mode engaged, you don't get the ever-louder-and-louder signal - it's "limited" because the new incoming signal pushes out the old. Also, if the Depth is turned all the way down, it becomes a momentary off switch.

The Delay line is a more traditional dark, fat analog delay sound, whereas the Echo line has a elevated, rarefied glittery tone. It's almost like an LPF and an HPF line. It also arrives just barely later than the Delay line. It overdrives beautifully, and thanks to its FET transistors, it has an almost tube-like breakup. The combination of these characteristics, along with the totally unique Infinity Mode, makes this the most tonally flexible and musically useful analog delay pedal ever made.

We get almost daily emails about these pedals at Endangered Audio Research. This unit is going to be donated to Oberlin College's TIMARA program when I'm done making demo videos for it, so don't bother trying to buy it from me. We are going to add more delay time with an aftermarket mod that will be available to the public, but first, I'm making a bunch of videos with different sound sources to show what the original sounds like.

EAR is also making a new, updated version of this later this year with expanded functionality, but gotta love the original unit - named one of the best 30 guitar effects in the world by Premier Guitar Magazine.

I don't deal in unprocessed, "clean" demos, because I don't believe it shows you more about the effect you're using. Nothing exists in a vacuum, especially music.

Contact me at mark@endangeredaudioresearch.com to reserve a new version of the AD4096, or to inquire about the aftermarket added delay time modification.

By the way, if you're a hater who thinks $375 is too much for 300ms of delay, you should get a digital delay and run it through a LPF. This pedal is not about time - it's all tone, baby.

Here's a link to Funk Box - a total must-have iOS drum machine. It's a fully featured drum machine with a bunch of different sounds from all sorts of classic analog and digital drum machines. It's only $5, and you are fooling yourself if you think the "real thing" sounds better.

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith - EARS - Album Teaser


Published on Jan 26, 2016 Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith

https://soundcloud.com/western_vinyl/kaitlyn-aurelia-smith


"Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith will release EARS, her newest album of vibrant synthesizer explorations mixed with orchestral instruments and vocals, April 1st on Western Vinyl.

'In recording Ears, my intention is to take listeners on a sonic motion ride through a futuristic jungle. I am inspired by the works of Moebius and Miyazaki - in particular the film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind – and I wanted to play with visceral sounds that pull one between feelings of beauty and dissonance, chaos and order. My hope is that, on a straight through listen, in a darkened room, on a loud stereo, Ears will inspire a rich visual narrative in listeners' minds.'

NAMM 2016 Roundup from CatSynth


CatSynth's final roundup of NAMM 2016 has gone up. You'll find it along with the rest on CatSynth here.

Pictured to the left is Make Noise's new little desktop synth. I had a chance to check it out myself at NAMM. It felt solid and as expected was making all sorts of sonic mayhem. Definitely one of the top tempting little boxes at NAMM.

It as well as other eurorack products at NAMM made me think of how overwhelming the modular world can be. Smaller systems like this are a fun way to hone in and focus on just what a cool little configuration can do. You can block everything else out and just get lost in the magic of that one little device, and when ready you can of course integrate it with a larger system through all the patch points.

Looking back at all the synth related gear, we are truly in a golden age of synthesis. It's pretty amazing.

Intellijel Cylonix Rainmaker in full random mode


Published on Jan 28, 2016 intellijel

"A constant sinewave is fed to the Rainmaker from an Atlantis module and then the wet/dry is turned up to full wet. I then trigger via the red button and by the external jack (using the mod vco on the Atlantis) to start randomizing all the parameter values on the Rainmaker. Later I change the randomize destination to different subsets.

There is a whole universe of sound to discover this way!! Be warned that you could get sucked into a time vortex."

Audulus 2 Minute Tip - 13: How make LFOs with the Phasor Node


Published on Jan 28, 2016 Bimini Road

Get Audulus for: iOS | Mac | Windows/Linux

"This video shows you how to harness the Phasor node and turn it into several different waveshapes. The Phasor runs from 0 to 2pi - without any math, it makes a Saw LFO that goes from 0 to about 6 - these equations tame it, however, and turn it into other shapes. I did not come up with these formulas myself - some came from Taylor and others from the forum.

These equations create DS LFOs between 0 and 1 (DS = direct signal, like DC or direct current). In general DS LFOs are more useful for manipulating knobs - if you keep all your knobs and modulation inputs accepting a range of 0-1 and then translate with math on the inside of the module when necessary, everything talks to everything else much more easily.

As for why the Phasor runs from 0 to 2pi (instead of just pi), refer to this enlightening Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_ci...

The 2 Minute Tip series breaks apart topics on Audulus into bite-sized chunks. I don't talk during the tutorials (though there are a few notes that pop up), and this is so that international viewers who don't understand English well don't feel left out. Familiarize yourself with the node menu and my navigation won't be so mystifying. In the future, we'll develop a finger press indicator so you can see where I'm tapping.

Roland PH-830 - Stereo rackmount phaser w/ CV/trig

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is a beautifully smooth sounding phase shifter with great stereo depth. Selling because of a studio downsize.

Cosmetically the unit is in great shape for it's age, aside from a bit of rack rash and a few light scratches (see photos). These units appeared for a short time from 1978, and although I don't know the exact age of this unit, it will be from there or thereabouts.

Where things can get very exciting is when the phaser is connected with cv/gate compatible instruments or sequencers. It has a semi-modular approach and allows triggering of the phase shift and control voltage frequency modulation.

The unit has just been serviced and all knobs and switches have been cleaned.
