Kinetic Gates without a Model 32

Kinetic Gates without a Model 32 from Pete Shambler on Vimeo.


"Trying to recreate the "Kinetic Gate" outputs of the Plan B Model 32 joystick using a Flight of Harmony Choices and Doepfer A-156 Dual Quantizer.

Patch:

X and Y voltage outputs from Choices are mixed together and sent to the CV in on the A-156. Trigger out from the quantizer to an envelope channel on Maths, Maths CV out to VCA CV in.

Quantizer CV out to 1v/oct input on VCO (in this case an e350 Morphing Terrarium).

(copies of the X and Y outputs are sent to the X and Y morph inputs on the e350)

That's it! Changing the quantizer settings changes the voltage output obviously, but also the amount of new voltages being created, which in turn affects the number of triggers it will be spitting out.

MacBeth X-Series Dual SV Filter Demo 1

MacBeth X-Series Dual SV Filter Demo 1 from Ken MacBeth on Vimeo.


"Hello again! Here is the first demo- if not basic- of the the new Macbeth X-Series Dual SV (State Variable) Filter module. Being used in conjucntion with it are 2 x X-Series Oscillators (along with sub octaves) giving a very rich sound! Listen out for the stereo sample and hold modulation. When the switch is thrown to invert on one modulation channel- the stereo becomes very aparent. Remember- this is just one module doing the proccessing!Also seen here is a prototype idea for a six input mixer with noise- not dissimilar to the 8 input Mixer 'A' from my Mk1 Series.....
The Dual SV Filter is being swept by one EG from the Mk1 Dual EG module. Audio and control jacks in the the Dual SV Filter are normalised."

Midi Integrator

Full details on altKeyboards

"A simple way to convert PC inputs; keyboard, mouse, joystick and more into midi input, combine with other midi instrument input, enhance, and then route to instruments, with quick re-configuration.
Highlights:

Allows adding pitch-bend and modulation controls, via one or more touch-pads or a mouse, to any midi system
Allows regular Midi instruments to be controlled and routed much more easily
Triggers a note, control command, pitch bend, or preset action by any input as desired
Can convert your PC-keyboard into an auxiliary midi-input controller and keyboard
Works especially well with 2-dimensional instruments like the Axis-49, Starrlabs instruments, Tenori-On, or Harpejj
Enables features that are normally considered “high-end” in keyboards, such as keyboard splitting (parts of a keyboard playing other instrumental sounds), and key and octave shifting at the touch of a key.
Extensible with a Max/MSP development system. For example, it can be made fully micro-tonal
Gives the ability to easily do things that used to be hard or slow to do in midi
provided executable runs on Windows or Mac platforms, with source code provided"

Beat707 USB Mode (no MIDI cables, just USB Cable)

Here we are using the USB Cable to transmit MIDI information to energyXT so we can use any VST plugin to play sounds from Beat707. In this case we used Wusik Station to play a Drum Set."

Synth.nl on the Jupiter-80 - Hands On Impression


"Most people start with comparing it with the Jupiter 8. Well I can tell you it has nothing to do with that classic. So forget that association right away!.. In the GAIA you have 3 one oscillator synths that you can stack all with their own LFO, Filter, VCA, two envelopes and an effects sections. Well you can stack 8 of those in the Jupiter 80 without any polyphonic restrictions. So that gives you 27 one oscillator synthesizers in a stack :P I can tell you the sound power coming from that is amazing."

See Synth.nl for the full impression.

Therizinosaur: Gamelan Life Seq


YouTube Uploaded by Alxasaurus on Apr 8, 2011

"Just an improvisation and the first impression of the NI Reaktor 5.51, with the newly revamped Newscool

Amazingly, unlike any other step sequencer, Newscool uses "Life Sequencer" which possesses a concept of "Conway's Game of Life" or simply "Life" by J. Conway in 1970.

Even though, SonicCouture also uses such concept for KONTAKT in form of scripts available in Scriptorium

Preset: Gamellan
Recorder: Fraps"

Shruthi-1 Demo: Sequences

Shruthi-1 Demo: Sequences from Stuart Mitchell on Vimeo.


"A demo of the DIY synth Shruthi-1 from Mutable Instruments, playing its own sequencer synced to a Machinedrum.
This is a slightly modified Firmware v0.92 (shows xox style LED in the sequence direction menu); using the new patch combo browse, which loads patch and sequence in parallel.

All Homemade Patches, sequences mostly homemade.

Drums from the MD. A bit of Lexicon reverb of the noisy snares and the "Luetin" part."

Fairlight apps compared


YouTube Uploaded by FairlightInstruments on Apr 8, 2011

"A brief comparison of the features of the two versions of the Fairlight App for iPhone and iPad, Fairlight Player and Fairlight Pro. These apps canb be bought separately from the App store, or the Player version can be upgraded to Pro via an in-app purchase. Cost of the Player plus Pro upgrade is the same as buying the Pro in the first place, and functionality of the Player once upgraded is identical to the Pro.

DSI Prophet '08 Module: Advanced Sequence


YouTube Uploaded by maskineri on Apr 9, 2011

"DSI Prophet '08 Module: Advanced Sequence
Audio & video by Arjen Schat

I bought the Prophet '08 Module back in 2008 but never really used the internal step sequencer to its full potential. In this video I use three layered sequences which were all composed using the internal step sequencers. The first sequence modulates the pitch of oscillator 1 in layer A, the second sequence modulates the pitch of oscillator 2, also in layer A. The third sequence modulates the pitch of both oscillators in layer B.

I use key step triggers to trigger the different steps of the sequences and alternate between three different notes with yet another sequence coming from my DAW (Renoise). These notes transpose the pitch of the sequences at their respective steps and create intricate polyrhythms due to the different lenghts of the internal sequences and the key step trigger sequence from Renoise.
The notes in the trigger sequence are also transposed a few times to keep things sonically interesting.

The audio is routed through a Moog MF-104Z BBD delay, a Maxon AD999 BBD delay and T-Rex Room-mate reverb."

Everlasting blaze (Plogue Bidule + Cynthia VSTi + mda Delay VST)

"Hello ! My name is Frederic Gerchambeau. I have made this movie and this music. The music has been made in one take using Plogue Bidule, the Cynthia VSTi and 2 instances of the mda Delay VST. My M-Audio Ozonic controller keyboard has been a great help in order to control many of the parameters of the Cynthia VSTi. Enjoy !"
