Weather Drones 1.5

Weather Drones started as a DIY project a few years ago but is now available as an affordable prebuilt module. Weather Drones is a great module for creating evolving drones, textures, and soundscapes, but it also responds to pitch very well. It has a mix out for the final result, but it also has separate noise, triangle, square, and fold outputs. It has a built-in low pass filter that can be modulated with the internal ‘helper’ oscillators which also accepts external modulation.

The final output has a ‘spread’ and ‘wavefolder’ knob to create all kinds of sounds, but its digital core really needs some external FX processing. Version 1.5 adds a built in VCA that can be modulated with an internal AD envelope generator.

Patch – The Card Game

For this jam I used James Cigler’s ‘Patch – The Card Game’ (available at Signal Sounds here) to make some patching decisions, but it’s – mostly – a jam and the cards disrupted it :). But that’s part of the game! You can find the game on patchtcg.com. It started with ‘patch every cable you can’ (fortunately I made a selection of cables because I have a lot of them) and making a video also required to make some decisions myself.

At one point I had to patch all inputs of the Loquelic Iteritas Percido and it sounded terrible. So I had to cut it and start over. I wanted to ‘manipulate’ Clouds so I had to film until the dice rolled into a ‘6’ without falling out of my closet. So 99% is real, 1% is creative editing :).

Quadrantid Swarm by Eowave

I had my eye on this one since I saw it in Paul Tas’ personal Error Instruments case. While my module was on its way ‘home’, I saw Mylar Melodies’ video using it in a techno set. I was already sold, but wow I did not expect the QS to be that cool. Unfortunately mine came without a spring reverb and I am not sure the Eurorack version includes one. Oh well, nothing a Desmodus Versio can’t fix.

Atmospherical – 4ms SWN | Eowave Fluctuations Magnetiques

When I got the 4ms SWN, I was expecting a wonderful ‘pad machine’ because it offers six wavetable voices that each can be set up as a separate voice and played polyphonically. At first I was a bit disappointed because of the sound. It’s not the module’s fault, because the sound you hear in most videos is also what you get.

A wavetable uses very short 512 sample snippets that roughly add up to one cycle (like one sine wave). So it can sound as a conventional sine, block, triangle and saw, and everything in between. The SWN is an extremely powerful and feature packed module, but if you want to ‘escape’ it’s either conventional or metallic sound, you’ll need to hook it up with other modules and treat it as a ‘raw’ oscillator. So I personally feel it needs reverb, a filter and FM. What happens then, is pure bliss. A wonderful ‘pad machine’.
