Dynamic gates, Quantizing & Drunken Drummer
After my ‘no pressure’ video I got a lot of positive comments, new insights, patch ideas and questions. With the 0-CTRL on the way, I was wondering what it would add to the existing Brains/Pressure Points combo we all love. I learned that the 0-coast’s contour ‘trigger’ actually is a gate that responds to dynamic CV, like velocity sensitive keys on a keyboard.
Walker Farrell of Make Noise was so kind to explain how it worked and how it can be achieved with ‘normal’ modules. You need to pass a gate to a VCA and modulate it’s volume before you pass it to 0-coast. In this video I also wanted to show what difference a quantizer makes. Finally I wanted to highlight some off-grid percussion patching, the drunken drummer.

In MakeNoise’s latest Maths ‘bouncing ball’ video, Tony Rolando spoke about a patch you could start with one button/trigger and would then play a ‘song’ by itself. Aleatoric Music.
MakeNoise Mysteron eight years later
Today I also uploaded a new Rings into Clouds video to create another magical forest. But I can imagine you’re not into that, and prefer a darker ambient setting. So in tandem, I created this Mysteron video, which was introduced a year before Rings came out. Both Rings and Mysteron use roughly the same technique of striking a delay line. With Rings, the delay is filtered and shaped into beautiful sounds. With Mysteron, the delay sounds like a raw heavy metal feast. A lot has changed since Mysteron came out, there are many new effect modules that can make it sound totally 2021.
The Mysteron is a discontinued module but you may be able to find one 2nd hand (hopefully fair priced). I’ve included a link to a shared system tutorial where I tried to do Karplus Strong Synthesis with the Echophon delay.
