Overall the sound is morphing, like a flute always trying to become a double reed, and occasionally (the sweet spots) becoming a sort of little synthetic, glassy, human voice. Next time I will recreate the sound from this starting point, then try to tightly control it, to make Odessa "talk" as clea...

I like both but probably wouldn’t bother with hardware if software was capable of the same sounds. I’m not computer shy and midi controllers are pretty cool by my standards.

You definitely are a victim of gas though, Solipsvs and don’t pretend you haven’t known that for a good ten years now, lol!

Pretty sure Bug#1 is not a bug at all but more of what you might call a -Missing Feature-.

I like really clean and simple analog VCOs and very characterful digital VCOs. Clean analog VCOs so that I feel like I’m creating the character of the sound myself rather than capitalizing on the richness of flawed waveforms. Precise analog in my mind also allows for more precision in my FM patches....

Thru zero frequency modulating my Rubicon while it’s running at LFO rates and twisting all the knobs has yielded some nice chaos.

I didn’t realize these were going to be full blown reviews! Nice idea, LunaticSound. Looking forward to hearing what you have to say.

Pretty sounds

I dig it. Artist: Acacia Bridge (linked account is a scratchpad) Track: Dumpster Baby Release Date: unreleased (recorded last year) Genre: IDM, maybe? Gear: Lead and arpeggios are Dixie II+ and wavefolders, e440 etc. Everything else is Bazille besides the Amen snare. https://soundcloud.com/biosoft-1...

xcc : sure, but you are talking about learning to use your tools. That has very little to do with limitations. You can have a huge studio with tons of stuff that you know well, no? Or are you saying that people with loads of gear can’t be creative? I’m sure I’m not getting my point across, but thos...

Yeah, on paper it looks capable of some really creative sounds.

Seems like this one would be a good buy these days. Unfortunately the only demos I can seem to find are cheesy harpsichord patches and your usual slew of synth wave sounds.

I'd be interested to hear some positive reviews as well. The NAMM video showed off some really interesting features but not too many people seem super hyped about this machine. Unfortunately the dude in the NAMM video almost seemed to imply that these really aren't selling well.

Come to think of it, the E352, in 2-Op FM mode, has selectable fixed ratios between modulator and carrier.

I’ll have to check and see if the second output is just the modulator. It probably is. That could make for some easy digital to analog FM action.

I think I was fifteen when I went to the record store one day and picked up Entroducing by DJ Shadow, Tri Repetae by Autechre and Ok Computer by Radiohead. Changed my life. Other than that: Nighthawks At the Diner by Tom Waits Lunatic Harness by u-Ziq The Milk Eyed Mender by Joanna Newsom Blue Lines...

I’ve had 2 cases with intellijel power supplies and I can say they are reliable, quiet, and give plenty of headroom on power front. And if you have issues with plugging things in backwards (like me) they have some protection for that as well.

Some pretty naughty sounds in that last one, Solypsvs.

I’ve made some really great sounds with the Rubi 2, a Dixie, and a wavefolder. The Rubicon really allows for a lot of far out sounds ranging from faux acoustic to crazy space madness. Definitely a high end piece of gear to my ears.

I don’t see why not. Shapeshifter is a deep module. Problem is you’ll probably find amazing sounds along the way to distract you.

Sounds a bit like a tone through a bitcrusher / reducer with random qualities at extreme settings I have to say that when someone asks how a sound is made it is almost never going to involve a bitcrusher. Lo-fi waves? Yeah, probably but faking lo-fi sounds (most but crusher effects) in a pleasing m...

Well the bass definitely has a filter in there. When you make very complex FM sounds and filter them with high resonance you’re going to get those really tech-y sounds.

Oh, I finally get it, TZFM that is.
Your speakers spit out a great sound, then you modulate it down to zero.
The TZFM oscillator stops and then starts to go backwards.
Then your speakers suck the sound back in.

Lol
Finally someone is using words I can understand.

I don’t think a BBD is going to cut it. Something like the 4ms DLD would be more on point. MaxMSP would be the cheapest and most versatile route. Crazy how these guys have practically built their career around Karplus Strong synthesis.

speaking of delay feedback networks, could you point me in the direction of some resources on this for musical applications? I would like to create something like this that is 'modular' and controllable via cv. But most of the stuff that i can find is very academic and above my intellect. No, haha,...

Don't really see the need for the convoluted procedures indicated above. Buy a simple and good midi to cv interface like cv.ocd and get done with it. CV.OCD seems pretty cool but an audio interface from Expert Sleepers will offer a lot more flexibility as well as accuracy. MIDI CV versus audio CV a...

If you want to sound like Autechre you might be better off worrying about what your delay feedback network looks like rather than what digital oscillator you're feeding it.



The Hertz Donut seems like a sound suggestion though.
