Bonne année à tu et tous aussi!

Thanks Robert, always appreciated!

If I can find the time and/or will

So I'm on a little WhatsApp group that shoots the shit about synth related stuff, and was extolling the virtues of my Bugbrand frames, when I had an 'aha' moment talking about the DDSR in relation to S&H and random(ish) pitch modulation. It occurred to me (and this may have already occurred to you -...

I saw that as well when it originally popped up, and was sorely tempted to contact the seller and say "wtf". But you know, I seriously doubt folks who do stuff like this very often hit their target - it's pure speculation. Reverb is actually not a bad place for buying and selling though, in my exper...

Yeah, I think the Moisturizer is designed to be quite a snarling beast and you have to spend a bit of time with it learning where to attenuate both internally and externally. Once you figure that out it's great, and the mods really do add a lot of extra control.

I think it is always easiest to work backwards from a slow division as a master clock as mentioned above or tweaking some sort of sync between two LFOs but... I can describe one patch that can double your clock speed - trouble is it is resource intensive and you'll only get x2 multiplication - nonet...

purchased ! Sounds great, too bad I missed the tape :(

Shit sorry - I have twenty available on my Bandcamp, due late November as the label guy is waiting to get them produced - I could put one aside for you when they arrive, no extra charge except postage?

Hey.

New cassette release by myself on Tesla Tapes.
Done almost exclusively on Bugbrand modular gear with a dash of concret/field recordings. Heavy stuff, no doubt the result of isolation with a concrete block.
Hope you enjoy.

Happy new lockdown! Got another release out into the wild - once again almost exclusively done on Tom's fab gear (with a little (more than a little) help from Robert). Worth noting I used the Chirper a lot one this, but not so much as a wild noisy fun generator as the source for most of the bass dut...

A little update bump:
We've uploaded a mini-mini-EP on the SELF-HELP Bandcamp page, featuring two versions of the initial collaborative piece that spawned SELF-HELP. Here it be:

I just realized this post was from a couple of years ago! This looks really cool, being able to clock it without having to sacrifice an envelope or use an external source. I may have to pick up a Chirper if I see one used. I’m a bit ham fisted when it comes to soldering SMT stuff, but this looks pr...

I haven’t looked at the back of my DDSR, but does it already have the necessary header? Is that the box that connects to the Bus in the DDSR block diagram?

I believe it should have, right next to the jumper switch.

Just wanted to bump this as I've just recently connected the Chirper's oscillators to the DDSR buses as shown in the above pics^^^
Really cool having the two linked up and ready to talk at the flick of a switch, highly recommended procedure!

Cheers Tom and Ritchie!

Thanks, much obliged!

Not a live video, but was invited to make something A/V for a stream recently, so did a video for a track off an upcoming release.
As per usual, the track is almost all Bugbrand/SL (think there's a wee bit of Microbrute on this one also).
Enjoy!

Looks great Tom, good job

That's a nice selection in two frames there. I've personally found two frames of Bugbrand (with a slight extension of PT Delay and XO Filter affixed to one end) just in the goldilocks zone for me in terms of range of possibilities vs enforced limitations - despite all the cool modules Tom has recen...

Wonderful :yay: Enjoying this while walking around on the porch with my two month old in a moby wrap. Nice sounds! We both enjoyed it 8-) Maybe there's a market for baby soothing synth sounds? Goldmine! An old pic I was sent::: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZVZLQl812go/TjAccgL8ijI/AAAAAAAAAfE/3MLyKtvUV...

Inspired by other Bugbrand users on this forum, I've started having a go at filming myself playing. I'm new to doing this, so please forgive any poor production or presentation - been experimenting with OBS and Droidcam with the view to eventually start streaming live sets. I've already realised thi...
