Shakmat Modular – Bard Quarter & Dual Dagger // #superbooth20

To keep up with all the news from the Home Edition of Superbooth 2020 click and share this link – https://bit.ly/SB20new

Shakmat Modular have announced two new modules for the Home Edition of Superbooth 2020 including a programmable quad quantizer and dual/stereo filter. Shakmat Modular are a Belgian Eurorack manufacturer with lots of great modules behind them such as the Bishop’s Miscellany, Four Bricks Rook and Knight’s Gallop.

Both new modules will spoke about with me (DivKid) alongside Hainbach & Konstantine at 17:30 GMT+1 on Thursday the 23rd of April 2020 as part of the Special Reserve Superbooth live streams here.

Bard Quartet – (press release)

This module is an easily adjustable four channel quantizer thanks to its intuitive keyboard and simple user interface. Scale, octave shift and I/O assignation is quickly and independently editable per channel. The harmony feature lets you store and recall (with the knob and through CV) the 4 channel’s settings, making progressive harmonies, chord creation or any evolutive harmonic arrangement an easy peasy task. The module has a non volatile memory containing 80 harmonic configurations. As we all know, playing in tune is cool but controlable detuned harmony is way cooler, that’s why the Bard Quartet features a micro tuning function, where each note of each channel is detunable independently!

The Dual Dagger – (press release)

This module is a double sided weapon, sharpened to cut low and high frequencies. The Dual Dagger chops stereo spectrums with familiar and appropriate controls for the low pass and the high pass filter section. The Band Pass function turns the dual filter into a band pass filter, with control over frequency, bandwidth and independent resonance for each slope! The module is carefully calibrated to share the exact same parameters on both audio channels but thanks to the pan function, it is easy to unlink the cutoff frequencies of each side, which leads to a whole new territory of stereo treatments!

There’s no news on availability or pricing just yet but check http://www.shakmatmodular.com for more information.

Now this is a mega lovely thing! Microcosm from @h Now this is a mega lovely thing! Microcosm from @hologram_electronics 

I’m late to the ambient powerhouse FX party but on first play around the combo of reverbs, filtering, granular and reverse effects is really compelling. 

Any got any top tips or settings they love? 

Shoutout to @serge_by_random_source and @finlayshakespeare Serge panels in the background.

Current working on my video for the @moogsynthesiz Current working on my video for the @moogsynthesizers MAVIS. Pushing it into more advanced patching and exploring how far I can push it beyond the default signal path. Found some great stuff so far! 

The video will also serve as a series of tips and patches for pushing semi modular synthesisers further. So you can try the patches on other gear you own too.

This is THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO PIZZA! No pineappl This is THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO PIZZA! 

No pineapples were harmed in the making of this video. 

New video live now with the @bastlinstruments Pizza. A wide world of sonic exploration, tonal options, smart modulation as either an oscillator or even a full synth voice. Very clever and sounds great!

Here's a new video of me performing some minimal ambient exporations, with freezing hands on some borrowed equipment. Unplanned, improvised and great fun in that location. 

More details in the video description, link in bio. 

Patreon supporters have an exclusive 15 page PDF outlining my approach to the system, modules used, the patching and more.

STEREO STRIP is out now! I’m proud to present STEREO STRIP is out now! 

I’m proud to present to you STEREO STRIP. My next module made in collaboration with @befacosynth . Stereo Strip is a stereo EQ, VCA, panner, distortion, mute & line level input and/or output interface for external gear. 

Stereo Strip builds upon the well trodden paths of studio channel strips expanding them for musical and creative modular use with voltage control. Simply try swapping out simple VCAs for Stereo Strip to enhance your patches with EQ and voltage controlled panning. Or get creative and check out the patches below for highly shapeable distortion hacks, mind bending stereo ring modulation, CV routing, feedback waveshaping and more. 

Head to the link in my bio to check it out. There's a PDF manual with patch examples and a quick start guide, my demo video and plenty of stores with stock ready to go for the launch.
