Understanding Sequencing On Korg modWave, Wavestate + Multi/Poly


Synthesist Ian Dixon shared this look at sequencing using the Pitch Lane on the Korg modWave, wavestate, and the new multi/poly.

His examples focus on the modWave plugin, but the technique are relevant to the hardware and software versions of these synths:

Here’s what he has to say about the video:

“I demonstrate how you can use the pitch lane feature of the motion sequencer to build your own complex sequences. You’ll learn how to use the motion sequencer to re-trigger envelopes, control the filter, and manipulate pitch. I also show how the Fit to Scale option ensures your sequences play in your chosen scale, and how the Shape Control lets you fine-tune pitch transitions smoothly.

The video includes examples on the Modwave (the process is identical on the Mono/Poly) as well as the Wavestate.

This technique will unlock a world of sonic possibilities for you on these incredibly powerful synthesizers.”

Beanie Bunnie Moo Moo Dual Oscillator Demo & Review

In the video, synthesist Tom Churchill shares his review of the Beanie Bunnie Moo Moo, a powerful dual oscillator in Eurorack format.

The Moo Moo can create a wide array of sounds, from pure tones to complex noise:

The Moo Moo Dual Oscillator Features:

  • 2 x Through Zero Analogue Oscillators
  • 1 x Noise Source with dedicated Analogue State Variable Filter
  • 2 x Octave Switches with CV inputs
  • 2 x 2 input mixers with CV control

The Moo Moo oscillator is available at Perfect Circuit and other retailers. Details are still to come at the Beanie Bunnie site.

Ambient Synth Performance With Moog Subharmonicon + Mother-32

Synthesist Frédéric Kuyl (No Lake) shared this ambient synth performance, performed with a minimal setup of a Moog Subharmonicon & Mother-32 Eurorack synths.

“I wanted to close the year with the best of myself,” notes Kuyl. “I don’t think I’ve ever been so psychically invested in a jam. I am in love with both of these machines. Nothing less, nothing more.”
