Kodamo EssenceFM: Modal Argon8 - FM using bitreduced sines

The Argon8 is in the left channel, the EssenceFM is in the right channel. I had some difficulty matching envelopes on this one.
Kodamo EssenceFM: Waldorf Kyra - FM using Adventure Kid waveforms

The Kyra is in the left channel, the EssenceFM is in the right channel. I had to more than halve the maximum modulation in the EssenceFM to reduce it to the leve of the maximum modulation in the Kyra.

Another half an hour, three patches from scratch: I try out some looping oscillator envelopes, filter envelope, LFO pitch modulation, scan through some masks, play with the looper and the arpeggiator and generally have a good time. At one point I get up into the higher masks, which get a bit trickier to use.

      They're both being sequenced by the MPC, a single low c. The Argon8's (limited) FM engine is one of the few I've found that can come close to the EFM for bite.

    • @jbowmanmusic

    The Mask1 there always seems to be some sort of weird phaser-effect present, where the Prologue displays a certain fat- and fullness. Prologue just sound more interesting to me. Thouh I have to say, I kind of dig the slick look of the Mask.

    • @jbowmanmusic
      @jbowmanmusic 2 месяца назад

      They both look great to me. Interesting you pick up on the phasing with the Mask1 - this is because the oscillators seem to have an inherent pitch instability in them, which means every 2 Osc patch inevitably has a kind of "analogue" phasing built-in. I have requested an update where you would have the option for the oscillators to play absolutely true with no pitch variation. Interestingly the oscillators in the "truly analogue" Prologue (once they have warmed up) are more stable in terms of pitch. The Mask1 does sound cleaner and more hi fi than the Prologue to me.

    Id definitely like to be able to have same phase of osc for each lfo pulse as you mentioned. Oh now that mod you mentioned of osc1 bitmask affecting pitch of osc2, fm with the mask 1... wow that would be a heck of an update if it happened. Wonder if it's possible. Or Osc sync maybe..? The new filter update makes the already nice filter even nicer. Definitely enjoy that one.

    The Mask1's looper records the aftertouch response, which is set by default to filter cutoff - that could potentially be useful as a modulation source when using the looper. I didn't realise it at the time though which was causing some confusion when I was adjusting the filter as I couldn't see why it wouldn't close completely and was opening part way through the loop! lol.

  • @jbowmanmusic
    @jbowmanmusic 6 месяцев назад

    Is it correct to say that this discontinuous quality of the bitmask oscillators is unique? or could you get a similar result using some other synthesis method (e.g. FM?) Let me know!

    • @HarmonicSonics.
      @HarmonicSonics. 5 месяцев назад

      I think it's unique to bit masking . Maybe if the coarse ratio of each operator of an fm synth were far enough apart, for example doing that with sines and a spread of 8 octaves, applying fm to the other oscillator on a 2 osc synth with fm going up, gives bird sounds. Which are somewhat discontinuous. I've not tried it yet with other waveforms yet.
