Sunday Synth Jam: Voltage Controlled Passacaglia, Pages 1 & 2, by Paul Hembree (Premiere)
Performed on the CRuNCh lab 1972 Moog Modular synthesizer, with video projection of an attached oscilloscope.
Executed from a score with parametric envelopes assigned to different performers. Rough synchronization is achieved with stop-watches, and four short sections in the piece (each about a minute long) allow for some controlled improvisation.
Paul Hembree, Chris Rippey, Steve Snowden, and Curtis Peel, performers. Read more…

From the department of “just because we can” comes Expert Sleepers’ demo of using a modular synth to control an iPhone.
If you start getting prank calls from modular synthesizers, you can blame these guys.
Patch details below.

Expert Sleepers has released version 1.4.3 of Silent Way, adding Silent Way CV Input to the $49 suite of plug-ins, designed for use as part of a modular analogue synthesiser system.
According to Expert Sleepers:
Silent Way CV Input is something of a breakthrough in audio interface-based computer/CV interaction, since it lets you get your CVs back into the computer (most other CV-generation software focusses entirely on generating CVs).
Moreover this plug-in has no special requirements on the audio interface, and so is not just usable by those with DC-coupled interfaces.
This release also fixes an issue with the AU Generator versions of Silent Way DC & LFO (added in v1.4.1) when loaded as mono plug-ins.
Moog Music has announced a new $199 option for the Little Phatty keyboard synthesizer, the Control Voltage Output Mod, which lets you use the Little Phatty to control other analog synths and effects.
The Little Phatty Control Voltage Out Mod adds five 1/4″ analog CV outputs:
- Gate (O to +5V)
- Pitch (1 volt per octave)
- Volume Envelope (0 to 5 Volts)
- Filter Envelope (O to 5 Volts)
- Mod Bus (Variable)
The Little Phatty CV Output Modification is available as factory upgrade only. Read more…

MFB has announced that their Schlagzwerg analog drum and percussion modular synth is now available.
Schlagzwerg combines CV-controllable percussion modules and a six-track CV/Gate-sequencer into a small drum-machine for live and studio applications.
The Schlagzwerg is semi-modular, so it is ready to play without requiring patch-connections. The CV-inputs, though, let the Schlagzwerg be modulated by external control sources.
Features:
- semi-modular drum-machine
- true analog sound sources
- kick, snare and tom (DRUM-04/-05/-06)
- cymbal and hihat (DRUM-07)
- step-sequencer with 16 steps and 16 A/B-patterns
- 6 gate- and 6 CV-tracks
- separate CV/Gate-tracks, e.g. for use with Kraftzwerg
- integrated MIDI/CV-interface
- integrated stereo-mixer with panning
MFB’s Schlagzwerg costs €680 and is available now. Read more…
