GOOD DAY SYNTH
TWIDDLERS!
June, it's June WAHAHHWA. Isn't the
weather good? Or bad? Or whatever it
is near you? Small talk aside things
are moving really fast as usual. I'm
potentially loosing a job I've had the
past few years which I'm taking as a
leap to really go for it working faster,
smarter and more regularly with
modular in hope that it's good for all
of us. With the time I'll gain I can
make more content which is good for you. However income needs covering so I'll be blunt and say I'd love to see my Patreon page - www.patreon.com/divkid - grow and to aid that I'm going to be making more exclusive content that will stay exclusive for those people who make an effort to support my endeavors. As always I'm up for talking about everything, ideas and feedback are always welcome. So let's go guns blazing moving forward bigger and better and to please Scanner I'll kick off the magazine by saying "let's get stuck in!"
MODULE OF THE MONTH
This month the module of the month has to be the killer
Contour from Qu-Bit Electronix. It's a relatively simple module
as it's a quad two stage envelope generator. The envelopes can
loop, be linear or exponential but the bits that make it great are
the attenuverter on the output, very well scaled digital control
from very fast to around 20 minutes long and the quick ability
to chain envelopes with the push of a button. Watch out for an
upcoming Modular Podcast "features" show (a new series) with
Andrew from Qu-Bit where we share patch examples and talk
about the module.
THINGS FROM AROUND THE WEB
Attack Magazine have done a feature on the London Modular Alliance which is a trio behind the London Modular shop. It looks at their set up, Eastwick Cases and the store. Worth a nosy so click HERE.
Audio Damage have given their software users a little treat,
or kick in the teeth sonically speaking with their new plug in
'Grind'. It's a wavetable look up distortion, filter, and
modulation source. To quote the website - "From subtle
tube-style saturation to full-on mangled wavetable distortion,
Grind is a Swiss Army Knife of sound design." So there you
go! Check it out HERE.
