Patches and Compositions

Demo track utilizing a variety of modular synthesizer time division and logic modules

Timing Module Jam

Modular synthesizer providing the background with Prophet '08 and CS-5 on lead.

Just an experimental track.

A self-sustaining modular synthesizer track I came up with one day.

Aye Robot

Pinging M401 Multimode / Resonant VCF, CGS512 Serge VCFQ and CGS577 Serge '73 VCF filters with an M710 Sequencer.

After about 30 seconds in walks a Blofeld and then Phatt Bastard.  A droning Prophet '08 rides through the middle. 

In the end there's only pinging...

Bing - Bong, Ping - Pong

Whilst experimenting with with an interesting little sequence I started playing around with other synths in the area.  This is the result.  Straight off the floor with some compression on the noisy bits.

I hope you enjoy it.

Journey Man

What started as an attempt at a Krell Patch turned into a cacophony of sounds.   The backing modular track utilizes a Hexinverter Galilean Moons and a CGS114 DUSG along with a pile of other goodies.  The main oscillators are PAiA 9720s.

Accompanying tracks are played on DSI Prophet '08, Moog Phatt Bastard and a Yamaha Motif XF.

Track was recorded as a single take with no post-production.

Krelly - by Just The 5

This is the background modular synthesizer track used on the track Krelly

It's comprised of two patches, one the ambient background which continuously morphs due to 2 AD EGs having their parameters voltage controlled, the second  a 'melodic' patch which evolves at random as well.

No post-production was done to this track

Krelly - Swan

This track developed while testing a Hexinverter QuadSync sequencer built by Lower West Side Studio.  This particular version was an expansion on the JLR inspired "Jellybean" SympleSEQ.

The sequence was built using all 4 sequencers clocked from an Oakley Dual LFO which was broken up by a CGS36 Pulse Divider / Boolean Logic Module.

The QuadSEQ gated Frequency Central System X and Hexinverter The Postman envelope generators.

Sounds generated came from Oakley and MFOS VCOs run through a Moogah SEM VCF and a Yusynth ARP 4072 filter.

The whole thing was plumbed through a series of Oakley Classic VCAs (the ones that go to 11) and a Yusynth Panning Mixer.

Because the whole exercise started as a lark I simply added bit from whichever synth I was near as I walked around listening to the sequence progress.

Jellybean

Connected a Dauze drum pad to modular synthesizer using BMC030 Instrument Interface.  Signal then processed through CGS62 Slope Detector and separated into 3 envelopes.  Multiple oscillators covering each part being filtered through various VCFs.

Cardio-respiratory sounds re-created on an analog modular synthesizer.

Heartbeat

A series of modular patches mixed together to form a spacey atmosphere.

This track was inspired by a Wiggler who used a Fixed Filter Bank Pro to produce percussion sounds from noise.

In this track noise is generated by a Galilean Moons module then sent to the FFB Pro.  Outputs from the Lowpass and various frequencies are then processed into various sounds controlled by gates provided through multiple sequencers.

Clocking is split several times using 3 different clock dividers allowing the sequence timing to morph as it progresses.

Thanks to Tropic Al from Muff Wiggler for the inspiration.  For more info on the Fixed Filter Bank Pro and other modules visit http://lowerwestsidestudio.com
