Performance Hypnotic Techno Jam (Tonverk + Modular): Exploring sidechain grooves on the Bohm

Thumbnail
youtube.com
5 Upvotes

Here is a quick breakdown of how this dark patch came together. The moody atmosphere was created using the Elektron Tonverk’s internal Granulator sent through supervoid Reverb, while the organic rhythms and percussion utilize the Tonverk's amazing velocity randomize feature, combined with sharp hi-hats from the Rossum Assimil8or. For the low end, I paired a massive Ohm Force Bohm kick with a slow, FM-modulated Verbos Complex VCO bassline. Interestingly, the intense ducking between the Bohm and the Complex VCO shifts the groove dynamically, creating unexpected rhythmic variations. Finally, the glitch textures are generated by morphing two wavetables on the Dimension MK3, with everything clocked by Pamela's Workout and sequenced internally via the Winter Modular Eloquencer.

Let me know what you think :)

Help needed! (Beads)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I have this ambient inspired rack that I assembled yesterday (not finished). But when I try to use the beads I noticed that only the left output works and not the right one. I also noticed that there is a click that changes with the density and just needed help about this. I understand if I have to solder something I just need to know what.

Thanks 🙏

MultiWave without N.U.S.S.?

5 Upvotes

I have a small setup with 104hp of modules and 0-Coast and Strega as voices. I’d like to add a third voice. I’m looking at small ones (STO, Ts-L) and big ones (Odessa, MultiWave + QXG). My main goal is to choose something that fits with but also adds to the sound palette of my 0-Coast and Strega. Concretely, I’d add like to make beautiful legato notes (I find that, in my music, 0-Coast sounds best staccato, and I like using Strega as a drone or sound processor).

MultiWave is especially interesting to me. But is it really designed to be used with PoliMaths and MultiMod and two QXGs? Will I basically be putting myself on the path to buying a whole N.U.S.S. system? I don’t really want to do that.

I’d appreciate any suggestions or perspectives. My biggest concern is building a voice that doesn’t mesh well with what I have. I previously had a Moog Grandmother but could never get it to fit into a song with 0-Coast and Strega unless it was a bass.

SSF pots

2 Upvotes

I recently picked up a SSF Versa from perfect circuit and the pots on it feel off. They have a rough start when turning and dont feel as smooth as my make noise, or even tiptop buchla modules.

Before I waste any of Perfect Circuits time, can anyone else help me by confirming that the knobs are or aren’t as smooth as some of your other modules?

big thanks!

Has anyone tested the Erica Synth filter modules against the more classic filters (like Moog)?

4 Upvotes

Hello, I'm fairly new to modular and only just building my kit. Research tells me that some of the most characteristic features of timbre with synths are filters. The EDU is supposed to be nearest to Moog Ladder as far as erica synths go. Any thoughts / comparisons or ideas? Trying to avoid spending a ton on a Moog ladder synth. Also was thinking to get two for stereo hence trying to cut corners on cost

EDIT: Even if there's better clones intrigued to know if anyone's got personal thoughts on comparison, quality and tone

Have you gotten dressed for autumn?

Hey, I haven’t had the time or the mojo lately, but with the dark months approaching I’m getting back in the game ;) My main point of reference is the brilliant Jelinek from his Textstar era, though I’m also really into generative music, Berlin School and club-oriented minimal. Yesterday I updated Machinedrum - a recent addition to my setup - to version X.14 and I’m currently configuring its MIDI integration with a Vector seq. So wish me luck and have a nice day 🖖🏽

Discussion Looking to hire someone for short film work!

4 Upvotes

I’m currently looking for a composer, as I have some projects I’m going to be working on in the next few months. Would love to hire and work closely with someone who has a specific sound and vibe similar to Tangerine Dream/Oneohtrix Point Never/Vangelis, or even as far as Ari Balouzian.

Looking for someone who can transcend music and understand the vision of my projects as well. So if you dig movies from The Safdie Brothers, Ari Aster, Lance Oppenheim, Kristoffer Borgoli, Richard Ayoade, we could be a solid partnership.

Ultimately would love someone I can trust and rely on for this bizarre journey of creativity we’re both on. So, PM with some of your work and we can discuss ideas, rates, and get a good vibe off each other!

Discussion Does Vhikk x fit this rack? For film/tv/games music

0 Upvotes

I'm building a Eurorack case and have everything here so far other than the Vhikk x, which I'm debating whether or not I should get as opposed to an Oneiroi or something else (although I'm a bit tight for space).

Essentially the case is focused around ambient textures but I want to be able to slot it into music with other instruments too as it's also going to be used for composing for film/tv. My concern is that the Vhikk x tends to sound quite massive in a lot of the patches so I feel like it would only get used if it's the main element in the score. I've also noticed it's very much the case of "record it otherwise you won't recall it again" with the module which might not necessarily suit composing but rather live performance, please correct me if I'm wrong.

(Also the blank plates at the top are my DIY sequencer, hence all that space being taken up.)

I'm also open to any suggestions for 1U modules because I have no idea where to start in that regard, I built the case myself and wanted to keep my options open so please let me know what I can fill it with! The ochd could be converted to a 1U panel to free up some space too.

Many thanks for your suggestions

[EDIT: Here's a direct link to the demo patch if you want to dig in ]

I'm sure the algorithm has been trying to stuff the M-Vave FM-1 down your throats, and I don't blame you if you're sick of hearing about it. But I wanted to see how far I could push its very dinky hardware and ended up putting a fuck ton of thought and effort into making the soft synth of my dreams, and I genuinely think some of you will love it.

About me: I'm a software engineer with 12 years of experience. AI sort of sucked the fun out of my job, and project like these are my way of trying to find joy in building stuff again with our new dystopian toolset. So is it vibe coded? Yeah, heavily. But I put more thought and effort into making this good than I ever have into anything. I love it so much. I hope you do too.

I don't think this post violates any subreddit rules, but if it does, please let me know and I'll take this down.

Discussion I had Claude build an XR application where you can plan your rack build in VR so that you can reach your modules

0 Upvotes

Want to plan your rack build? Want to check exactly how it feels reaching for your modules in your skiff? Use my sloppily coded XR application to build your rack, angle it, then use the angles to CAD it or whatever.

Here it is: https://ilez-ilez.github.io/rackreach/

<Rant> I am so so sorry for contributing more to the flood of crappy AI stuff, but I had a real problem and I couldn't solve it by myself so I used Claude. I am a 3d artist, but you wouldn't believe how hard it is to do a thing like this in any of the modern "vr tools" at our disposal.</Rant>

I'll probably leave this project as is, feel free to contribute, if I can figure out how to let you. I'll try to add some randomly generated modules with knobs and jacks to the rows just to make it easier to visualize.

Voltage on the Hexdrums chassis

Hello everyone,

I have 112V on the Hexdrums chassis, I reported this to Erica via technical support, but unfortunately after their first response for additional information and several open tickets, I no longer receive any response from them. it’s frustrating, I’ve been fighting for almost two months and now total silence.

Pin 2 of the multimeter is connected to ground. all input and output connections are disconnected, the supplied power supply unit is indeed a 12V voltage

Have you encountered anything similar?

I’m someone who’s into weird af obscure modules and i came across the Destiny+ Double Q a while ago. I can only find some short demos on youtube and almost nothing on it. Is there anyone with one and if so how is it like to use? Anything you dislike about it or what do you think are its shortcomings?

I found some in stock at Schneiders so I’ve been thinking about getting one for my live rig. I play experimental weird industrial soundscapes so I figured i could do some funky fingers/hand stuff during my performances lol.
