...generates a peculiar mood...i like this!

I admire the attempt to get away from delay and reverb, and so far this track works quite well! As a fellow Eurorack user, I'm curious what is generating the lovely pad sound with the slow attack?

very nice - quiet, moody, intropective - I like it!

There is a peculiar spirit in your modular. Nice to meet it :)

Blame & Justice - Essence (The Jazz Testament)

The Night Watch

Peril

DB1 - VANGUARD

I'm using the release of my second album, The Dark Light, http://drberndthoffmann.bandcamp.com/album/the-dark-light (plug, plug!) to draw a line under certain practices I'd got too comfortable with, namely the (over)use of delay and reverb. 

So, this is my first attempt to return to sound design without those crutches. As usual, Eurorack modular synth-only, no external processing or sequencing, but this time without heavy use of the Eventide Space or ZDSP delays. 

I hope you like my new direction... As always, feedback is welcomed and encouraged!

PS. Apologies for not listening to the tracks of the many people I follow recently; I've been working round the clock as of late, hence why my many of my recent tracks have been sketches rather than fully formed compositions.

A little post-holiday patch. 

Still sticking to my no-reverb-no-delays rule, but arguably cheating by using a clocked down stereo resonator on the ZDSP, which creates a delay/reverb-like effect. 

Eurorack modular synth-only, no computers.

Watch your bassbins, I'm telling ya...

The latest in my series of no-reverb-no-delay tracks. This time with a dubby feel. The bass is pretty heavy, so be carfeul with your speakers!

100% Eurorack modular synth, no computers or external effects.

100% eurorack modular synth, no computers or samples. No reverb or delay, just waves, filters, a bit crusher and a frequency shifter.
