Bugbrand Modular Mayhem
YouTube Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 29, 2011
"Ain't she beautiful, my new baby? I just recieved this wonderful machine from Tom Bugs - a Bugbrand Modular. It is obviously capable of some serious sonic mess. And I love the colours!
This patch relies mostly on the delay module, modulated and fed by various oscillators, with extra spice added by the button-trigged envelope to the left, and a few dry feeds to give body to the sound (these are soloed after a while).
Enjoy

Bugbrand Modular 2 - Spacious Drone
Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 30, 2011
"Exploring unexpected drone possibilities from a patch originally made for emergent cross-modulation rhythms, which brutally failed when I tried to film it. After some knob-twiddling, this was the result.
From 4:35 there are some nice grooves.
This is my second day with the Bugbrand Modular, and I'm quite sure it will keep me busy for a while...
The sound is recorded straight from the line out of the synth (which is mono).

Bugbrand Modular 3 - Cross-modulation Space War
Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 30, 2011
'A test of how the different oscillators can inter-modulate, in the eminent Bugbrand Modular, which I received yesterday."
Bugbrand Modular 4 - Timpani drummer
Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 30, 2011
"Exploring a way of creating complex rhythms with minimal means, while keeping resources for creating the actual sounds. Various multiplications of envelope and a couple of oscillators create a rhythm that modulates the Buchla-style Low-pass gate. That constitutes the main kettle-drum sound. To spice it up, there is a complementary synth sound. In the video, I explore various knob settings for the patch."
Bugbrand Modular 5 - Omph Omph
Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 30, 2011
"OK, so I made a few experimental videos on the Bugbrand Modular today, but I just couldn't resist trying to do something more, you know, beat-based (although strangely shifting). One hand holds the camera. That leaves one hand to do the beats..."
