Made a python tool for scanning images and send OSC messages to control synthesis in VCV. Synth is very basic already because proof of concept :).

Five more modules have made it through integration and now you can have them! I'll be making individual posts for these, but spreading them in time so I'm not spamming anyone.

The Modules, put simply:

DOMAIN: a big big switch, 4 x 2->1 on the left, 4 x 1->2 on the right, and a Master that switches all, plus latching mode for Master and pairs of 2->1 & 1->2.

REFLECTION: a Window-er that bounces voltages between an upper and and lower limit adjustable by width and offset. gives you 2 independent ones, and also inverted windowed outputs for more fun.

TONNET: a serious Quantizer, arranged in the 'Tonnetz' format, with 8 banks that're CV addressable, and a 'Page' mode to quantize to discrete pitches in a ~7 octave range (also with the 8 addressable banks). Also a polyphonic input that allows you to play notes into the quantizer for all inputs to be quantized to.

CANYON: a stereo Delay with multiple modes, Freezable, Reversible, and Pitch-able, with internal filters for each side. --I really like how this one has turned out, easy to make glitchy granular-esque stuff.

SEETHE: a Multi-band saturation with adjustable Cutoffs that also accentuate the curve, and a morph function to smoothly shift between different saturation curves in each band. will likely add more curves to the knob in the future. also individual inputs and outputs for each band.

--as an aside, my First module Poppy Fields has made some improvements that have drastically reduced CPU usage, but the GPU is still a bit of an issue. soon I will learn proper multithreading and fix it entirely.

A fully generative piece created in VCV. I’m no expert, but I enjoy experimenting and I plan to release an EP or an album in this style. Any feedback is welcome. Screenshot of the patch in the comments

Hi everyone!

I'm researching how emerging creatives decide where, when, and whether to share their work. Your experiences will help me learn whether there's a real need for a different kind of creative community or not.

Survey

This survey takes about 3 to 5 minutes, Thank you!

Starting to develop a better template for using my P-6 for sequencing/drum triggering. I'm also trying to explore more modules since I'm still very much a n00b with this DAW (the algebra modules scare me). I decided to bring the Microkorg 2 in with the CV->MIDI module for the chords on this one, and I'll have a finished track probably tomorrow.

Edit: full track available here

I'm taking another big pass through the modules and seeing about the visual direction. Here's the current set after a few major passes.

I'm trying to create dark experimental bass hits in Operator like the sound below but I can't quite get them to sound right. I understand distortion effects are applied after the synth in these examples but can anyone give some tips? Thanks!

Anyone have thoughts? I had some spare room on the panel and it seemed like a pretty good thing to have as an option. It does make the interface a little more busy and complicated but I think this is manageable in this state.

I finally got some time to make another Space Robot video. I put a description of the patch on the youtube page. Please watch till the end to find out what happened to Andy… It’s like 4 minutes… https://youtu.be/zkjB6qMi3JI

First time recording one of my patches. Besides the giants swathes of n o t h i n g, lotta sickozell bc they're awesome, as is mindmeld. Midi is coming from a Roland P-6 which I'm using to play the lead and mute the mixer channels.

Doing a lot of rework on some visuals, here's a small Undertow "single-oscillator" jam.
