These kits are part six and seven of a series of nine that I developed in collaboration with Erica Synths. In the video, I introduce the core concept - which is a focus on actually understanding the circuits you're building - and demo the finished modules.
Great video, sounds excellent and love the combo of noise/S&H/slew! Just wanted to clarify that the sample & hold trick at the end is actually sample rate reduction and not bit crushing. Bit crushing would require converting the analogue signal to a digital one and then reducing its dynamic range via the bit depth. Sample rate reduction comes from sampling the signal at progressively lower frequencies, which is what's happening in the video. Maaayyyybe you could get similar result to bit crushing by running some kind of quantizer after the S&H in your patch and then modulating that? But aside from that I can't think of a way to do bit crushing without an ADC and DAC involved somewhere (and even a quantizer would have those too lol). Sorry for the nitpick-y comment - ultimately they both sound great and the words don't really matter much from a musical standpoint, but it's a common misconception that I've seen a lot when it comes to this technique and thought it might be a good idea to avoid more confusion :)
(Love your videos btw!)
That jam was beautiful; nice work as always!
upload those bangers for godsake
Love the prophet 6 very nice !, throughly enjoying this series and the ‘play’ before building the module. The Erica style modules look great (have built all with two vcas and vcos ) only problem - now need a bigger modular case ! (They are with other modules )
I am definitely stealing the random filter cutting trick, sounds awesome
Since you are tight with Erica Synths now, maybe you could suggest that they also make cables in a 45 cm length.
I’ve been running a Pocket Operator (PO-12) through the clip out of the mixer for some nice crunch. Sounds great!
Excellent demos as always Moritz, great job!
Just got my S&H/Noise kit in the mail today, excited to build it!
What will you do when all the modules are released?
start doing livestreams again, and videos on more experimental projects i think!
@@MoritzKlein0 I enjoyed the arp video, I can't wait to see your experimental content!
@@MoritzKlein0 i don’t know if you saw my last week comment about how to troubleshoot the SH module? I am a bit at loss as why it doesn’t react the same way as in your example…
So uhm... is Erica Synths your wife?
I really don't need another synthesiser, but this series is really whetting my appetite! I noticed that the nine kits don't include an LFO - is it possible to use a second VCO for this purpose?
The envelope has a loop function, and the case they released for this series has room for two of them.
@@iamjamessmith Thanks for the info - time I rewatched the envelope generator video!
hmmm how did the distorted output suddenly turn stereo at 1:08?
S&H/Noise instruction manual doesn't have the PCB placement diagrams, any idea where I could get those?
Could you make a video on converting a tap tempo led from a guitar pedal (or any device) into a midi clock out for trs cables. I’ve seen it done and it seams not too complicated.
There are so many pedals out there that don’t have sync capabilities but have tap tempos. The original line 6 dl4 is a perfect example of a pedal with delay and looper function with tap tempo but sadly doesn’t sync to anything.
is it possible to add more than 3 inputs in this mixer design?
yeah, no problem!
What are the names of those 12" in the vid? Wanna listen to them :) thx and also great work!!
Autechre Amber is the one on the right. Not sure of the other.
yeah, one is amber by autechre, one is rainy dub/faceless by actress, and the last one is the great dismal by nothing.
I patched exactly like you did but the random/sh trick doesn’t sound at all like yours. Any idea why ? How can I make sure I didn’t solder half my kit wrong ? ;)
Well it appears it does work quite better when you don’t forget to solder one resistor ;)
Noise 😀
