Name: RES-4 Take 3 by mindlesseye in Cwejman Filters
Duration: 54 s
Description: Cwejman RES-4 - clicks from 4ms SCM as input, modulated by audio rate VCO (FMed by RG-6)

i've compiled a list of demos and tracks involving Cwejman filters, for convenience of coming back back and re-listen to all in one place.  this happened while i was deciding for which filters should i get onboard their waiting lists.  

edit update: in past two years, i have managed to get a new RES-4 from Maho,  and find DMF-2 and MMF-6 used.

Cwejman Filters

Just a small demo soundscape/texture. Instruments: eurorack modular synth (Cwejman, MakeNoise, MOTM, Malekko/Wiard modules), Kurzweil KSP8 effects processor. Production: Ableton Live 8. Main modules used : MMF-6 (as a SINE osc), E350 (as an LFO), ModDemix (for sideband), RES-4 (for vocal effects), Sport Modularor (as ... a semi random modulator).
Enjoy !


Voices inside

This is a 4-voice polyphonic patch showcasing the Cwejman QMMF-4 and Modcan Quad LFO (a love made in heaven!)

The chords are played live through a MIDI keyboard going into a MI Yarns. CV is routed to 4 Cwejman VCO-6 oscillators. Their SAW outputs are going through 4 SuperSawtors and are then inserted in the individual audio inputs of the QMMF-4.

Envelopes are handled by two Modcan Quad envelopes, one going into the MX-4S and one connected to the CM2 inputs of the QMMF-4. A PH-4 modulates the panning of the MX-4S.

The Modcan Quad LFO is set to "Quad mode" and inserted in the CM1 inputs of the QMMF-4. 

All patches in the first two tracks are done with this set-up. Changes in timbre are happening by the different LFO settings and rates of the Modcan Quad LFO.  Some excerpts are done with the QMMF-4 in RES mode, some in OSC/SAT mode. I use BP and LF.

There's a RG-6 connected to the main audio input of the QMMF-4. It's positive saw output creates the random clicks in some of the excerpts.  

The third track has the MI Yarns set to 4 stacked mono voices. You hear audio rate modulation of the Modcan LFO being lowered to LFO duties. 

Sorry for the lack of musical content and my clumsy keyboard playing, this is merely a showcase for some of the timbre options of the QMMF-4.

this is small section of a much longer recording  as i try to figure out what's what on the paperface serge. it would be too boring to post the whole thing. this is recorded straight with no added processing except normalization on export in ableton.

The LepLoop
I've used a lot of synths over the years but this one is something different…&nbsp;&nbsp;it's a strange instrument. It's small, much smaller than it appears in photos: it is part synth, part drum machine, part multi-track sequencer. I'm still&nbsp;figuring it all out but initial impressions are that it's very unpredictable and slightly unstable… but in a good way. I had a few issues with it sometimes refusing to work and also it has a tendency to pick up stray&nbsp;signals from my iPhone and iPad if they are anywhere near it. But&nbsp;when it works&nbsp;it is quite rewarding to use and is capable of some amazing sounds - if mildly frustrating trying get it to do what I think it 'should' be able to do - but I will persevere. If you like wonderful experimental noises - accompanied by a simple rhythm (although I'm sure it's very capable of a lot more) then this little unit could be for you.
The LepLoop will definitely become part of my CCCL&nbsp;experimental&nbsp;arsenal and will most likely get seconded into the upcoming Throbbing Gristle experimental sets in October/November 2010.
The short sound example here was performed without a keyboard, just using the internal sequencer and some real-time tweakery. The outputs were processed with a couple of Eventide pedals for some 'tape delay' &amp; reverb.

UPDATE:
Apparently my LepLoop is a prototype, which accounts some of the 'issues' I had with it - the production version should run fine.
