Pittsburgh Modular VILFO as an Ugly VCA

YouTube via amphonic | August 04, 2010

"An oscillator is patched directly into a Pittsburgh Modular VILFO used as a VCA to produce an interesting tremolo like effect. A square wave from a Synthesizers.com Oscillator is fed into the Variable Control Voltage of the VILFO. A Make Noise Brains/PressurePoints sequence is sent to the 1V/Octave input of the Oscillator to vary the pitch. The sequence is also sent to the Influence Control Voltage of the VILFO to control the rate of the VILFO. A lower pitch speeds up the VILFO and a higher pitch slows the VILFO down."

"A brand new analog delay module designed around a pair of 4096 Bucket Brigade Delay Line (BBD) ICs to produce a distinct analog delay effect. The maximum delay time when shipped is set at 9/10ths of a second but this can be adjusted up to 2 seconds. The Analog Delay offers voltage control of the delay time, feedback, and wet signal. A true bypass switch allows the delay to be enabled and disabled quickly."

"http://pittsburghmodular.com/audiomixerattenuator/

The Pittsburgh Modular AudioMixer/Attenuator eurorack modular module is a flexible, low-noise four channel mixer and/or attenuator for audio and cv that can be used in several ways. Three of the four channels have an output that removes the channel from the mixer circuit and allows it to become a standalone attenuator.

- 4 Channel Mixer
- 4 Independent Attenuators
- Attenuators and a 2 Channel Mixer
- 1 Attenuator and a 3 Channel Mixer
- Width: 8hp
- Module Depth 20mm with a power cable connected
- Power Usage: 20mA"

Sequencing with the CMOS Clock Divider and Two Pittsburgh Modular VILFO Modules

"Using the CMOS Clock Divider by DGTom with 2 Pittsburgh Modular VILFO Modules to create an awkward rhythm. The Pittsburgh Modular VILFOs are being influenced by Control Voltages from a Synthesizers.com Q106 OSC to create two sudderstepping LFOs that clock the CMOS Clock Divider. Very cool setup."

http://pittsburghmodular.com/foundation/

"The Foundation is a fully modular, eurorack, analog synthesizer. A patchable system styled after the great monosynths of the past with no hardwired signal path or fixed voice architecture to restrict creativity. Driven by two wide range analog oscillators the Foundation produces a huge, warm sound that can't be matched by digital or VST synths. All of the elements of a classic voltage controlled synthesizer are available as an open, patchable, modern synth."

Update: Ships in 30 days at $1695 MSRP.

Pittsburgh Modular Timetable Demo

YouTube via amphonic | November 23, 2010 |

"This is a demo of the Pittsburgh Modular Timetable module. A combination of a basic clock divider and a voltage controlled pattern generator. The Timetable produces even divisions of the input signal and patterns that range from the simple to the convoluted.

In the video, the Timetable is generating the pattern that is triggering all the sounds.

"http://pittsburghmodular.com/oscillator/

A wide range, high quality, 8hp eurorack utility VCO. It offers a full compliment of standard waveforms including Sine, Triangle, Saw, and Pulse waves. The Oscillator offers 5 octaves of 1 volt per octave tracking, and a frequency range starting as low as 7 seconds per cycle, allowing it to double as an LFO. Additional features include oscillator reset for hard syncing, attenuated linear FM input, pulse width, and pulse width CV input."

"A brief example of the Pittsburgh Modular Confluence PM01 module being influenced by a second PM01. The Confluence PM01 module is influenced by control voltages in a very different way than a typical LFO. The PM01 in the center is being used to modulate a filter frequency. The output of the PM01 on the right is fed into the Influence Control Voltage input of the center PM01."

"Auto-Generated music using 44-Space Synthesizers.com modular, Roland Juno-106, Dave Smith Prophet '08, Boss DR-55, AM Radio, and a lot of stomp boxes. Audio and video were recorded live @ the Furnace and put together in iMovie. Over 60 1/4" guitar cables were used to create the music. The modular is driven by a CGS Psycho LFO and a Q119 Sequencer. The Juno-106 and Prophet '08 are played by a few patch cables jammed between the keys. Check out the blog at www.modularsounds.com."

You hear the Pittsburgh Modular VILFO controlling the Variable Output Send of the bubblesound uLFO. The Doepfer A-145 is used to modulate the VILFO Variable wave form from a triangle to something that could resemble a shape on its way to becoming a square."

"Voltage Influenced Low Frequency Oscillator
The-Pittsburgh Modular Voltage Influenced LFO is unique in the modular world. It is a strange, triangle based LFO that lives in an 8hp euro panel. The module offers two outputs, a triangle wave, and a variable waveform that shifts from a triangle to something that is almost not completely a square wave. The VILFO also includes a unique voltage influence circuit. The influence works differently than standard control voltage inputs, it allows the incoming CV to mingle with the LFO waveforms in interesting ways, creating unique modulations and patterns."

Pittsburgh Modular VILFO Synthesizer Module Influence Control Voltage Test

YouTube via amphonic — June 21, 2010 — "Here is a quick video showing the Voltage Influence in action. The VILFO on the left is sent to the volt/octave input of a dot com oscillator playing a triangle wave. A second VILFO (on the right) is routed to the "Influence Control Voltage" input of the VILFO on the left. Only the VILFO on the left is controlling the oscillator.

Sorry if that sounds confusing."
