Vermona PerFourMer MkII: Noodlings with a Zen delay

video upload by Richard DeHove

"After many enquiries and much nagging I was finally able to buy a Vermona PerFourMer MkII - for a machine that's been around almost 10 years these things are hard to get! The original was released in 2003 and the MkII in 2012. Had mine for about a week now and it's a beautifully engineered knobby beast. Am really enjoying cycling through the four oscillators and the delight in this reminds me of my first synth, the Korg Mono/Poly. The Vermona takes things a lot further than the Mono/Poly though with individual flters, LFO and envelopes.

In this noddle the Vermona is in Poly2 mode with individual insert effects on each oscillator: a Vahlbruch SpaceTime delay, Phase 95, and two channels of the Boss RV-6 reverb. As things progress I add in the Erica Synths Zen delay on the stereo output. It's on digital ping pong mode with a gently overdriven input and some bandpass filter. Finally I add in some Zen overdrive before finishing with basic Zen again. In hindsight it may have been better to roll off some of the top end of the reverb, pan oscillators 3 & 4 left and right and turn off the Zen ping pong. But then every little knob twiddle changes the flavor slightly and eventually you just have to plate it up and serve. If you've read this far you're probably a hard enough synth nut to appreciate the special love I have for osillator 4 in this noodle. It's the low "boom" hit that sounds every now and then. It's just a simple triangle wave with no special settings at all but somehow with the reverb it manages to sometimes sound like a cavernous drum. Had to sell quite a bit of stuff to fund this one, including the very interesting little Norand Mono, which was a bit of a shame. Still, no regrets in having the Vermona! I've got all sorts of things queued up waiting to try :)

"Fridaynight i did this noodle witch is completely generating it's own melody and variation. Sorry for the boring beat but it's just a little idea with this noodle.

Drums DR55 trough an EMT 266 limiter
Noisering used for the melody generation
Clockdividers for dividing clock signals.
Logic module to merge the clock from my dyn sinc with the noise ring clock.
Slope generator for envelope firing to the noisering inputs.

The Boss DM-2W: A simple delay perfect for synths (no talk)

video upload by Richard DeHove

"Glorious random noodlings with the Boss DM-2W Wazacraft delay pedal and the Erica Synths DB-01. To some an 11-minute no-talking video with a three-knob delay pedal might seem excessive. Well, maybe so. But for delay pedal nuts (like me, and probably you if you're also reading the caption) it's only just enough. Even then I didn't use the delay time input, direct out or do much knob twiddlings The reason is that this pedal sounds beautiful and makes you want to play music, not twiddle knobs.

There's no hint of line-level input issues (as you get with some pedals) and there's plenty of wet level to play with (unlike the Boss RE-202 which is a bit quiet imo). The nearest competitor that I've used extensively would be the famous MXR Carbon Copy. I had both the standard issue, then the deluxe version, but I think the DM-2W is a better fit for synth, not as dark and a more pleasant feedback tone.

I am biased though since the original DM-2 was the first pedal I ever bought. That unit sat on top of a whole series of synths starting with the Korg Mono/Poly. I played live with it many times, always fearing I'd mismanage the feedback and blow something up :) The new version seems equally dangerous! Not sure what happened to the OG pedal in the end, I even went on a hunt through some old boxes a few weeks back, but no luck. I'm sure it's out there somewhere still going.

The audio here is just as you see it: The DB-01 going through the DM-2W with no other effects or processing.

Korg Volca Keys Noodle "At the funeral of a computer"

Published on Sep 12, 2015

"Beatstep Pro driving a Nord Drum2 and a sequence on the Volca Keys using Tempo from the Beatstep.

Settings:

Volca Keys : Set mostly to POLY with 5 different sequences and some automation. Then occasionally popped up to UNISON mode for a non poly sound. Audio signal from the Volca is passed through an Eventide H9 Pedal using the Dark Angels "Shimmer" preset.

Keyboard: Playing Ipad Mini FM synth called DXi FM synthesizer
By Takashi Mizuhiki. I am playing a bell sound called GlassBeadSA for the small filler sections on the M-Audio KeystationMini32. I crank up the effect Delay and Delay depth in the Dxi App itself.

Ipad out is via the Lightning cable using MusicIO to send midi from the keyboard into the Mac before then pulling the digital audio signal back. I have another video on the excellent MusicIO app which is perfect for pulling sound and sending midi to an Ipad.

Ableton is used for occasional triggered samples using the DJTechtools Midifighter 3D.

Korg Monotribe used for a short repeated background sequence. The Monotribe sound output is through an Electro-Harmonix and then through a Flashback by TC Electronic to create a nice reverb echo.

Recording is completed live (accept my pre-planned sequences are not live) into a GoPro Hero4 which is up above my workbench. Audio is sucked into my Mac via the ART USBPre two channel audio interface and mixed in the simple application Audio Hijack, basically making the Mono sounds from the Korg kit a central signal rather than in just one speaker. Then the sound is pumped back out of the Art USB pre and into a headphone monitor cable that climbs up into the USBMic jack directly on the GoPro Hero4. So no video and audio mixing is required because the sound is mixed and recorded live into the Gopro.

Mabel the pug is a great audience, she just snores in appreciation (Spot the Pug)"
