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

Modular Stuff

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.
 

QMMF-4 4M

In this demo I've multi-tracked the Cwejman RG-6.
The initial bassline and melody is the RG-6. Later come's the Synthesis Technology E350 Morphing Terrarium and lastly the Intellijel Cyclebox II. I didn't write down how the sounds where patched, but the RG-6 is running through the Make Noise MMG filter.

So if you turn the "Rate CV Level" full CW you'll have 1V/oct on the "Clock Rate" input. Lovely! And a fun fact is that the Cwejman RG-6 tracks within .10 semi-tones over 4 octaves.

I've been playing around with Softube Modular for a little bit. I do have a 15U at 84hp custom Eurorack next to me, but this one's a lot easier to bring along.

The first thing I did, as I always do, was to patch a nice little bellish synth sound followed by a dreamy pad. I added them both together and voilá! A lullaby. My sons however fell asleep before it was ready - but they'll get to hear it tomorrow.

Of course I just had to add both B2 and Shimmer.

Message me if you'd like to have the presets I've made for this demo.

Softube Modular Says Hello

Earlier today I was thinking about a neat trick with the Intellijel Planar Eurorack module. I fed the E355's two LFO's phase shifted 180° to make the motion of the joystick resemble a circle. I then connected the two E350 (both XY and Z to fill the four inputs) to the Planar. Added some modulation via the E102 so the E350's were modulated at different times and I also tuned them in fifths. This trick could also be a form of hocketing the two E350's. An E950, modulated of course, was added for extra thickness.

Melody from the Kilpatrick Audio K4815.

I'm giving the Phase Modulation Oscillator a try on the Nord Modular G2, using a technique found in the Buchla Model 266 'Source of Uncertainty' module.

Broken Bell

This track is made using only the Nord Modular G2.
All the patches are using my Random Clock Generator, or Toggling S&H, patch inspired by the Buchla "Source of Uncertainty" Model 265 module to get that analogue and unstable oscillator drift.

I'll post more about it in my blog (http://david.cutpaste.org/dmb/) tomorrow.

Random Clock Generator

My inspiration comes from Schiller, Ulrich Schnauss and the Pet Shop Boys.
I aim to use the tempo of the original composition, or half, when producing my Pretorium remixes. I'm most often doing 'full vocal' versions and try to treat the track with the respect it deserves.
If your want me to remix your track, drop me a line at david@cutpaste.org. I'm also on twitter.com/pretorium and twitter.com/paleskinnyswede. Say hi ;o)
