Untitled Analog Modular Exploration
This morning we at CatSynth have a sound track for your enjoyment.
Last week I was finally able to start putting together my first analog modular system, inspired by my NAMM trip in January. So far I have installed two modules, a Wiard Anti-Oscillator by Malekko Heavy Industry and an E350 Morphing Terrarium by Synthesis Technlogy/MOTM. In this sample, they are modulating one another, with the “X-Y” output of the E350 as the main audio out.
I just let Pro Tools run as I was exploring. I expected to stop after a couple of minutes, but found myself quite enrapt. After ten minutes, I decided it was enough for this track and brought it to a close. I was quite happy with the result, and consider it to be a genuine work of improvised music.
I hope to start uploading more to Soundcloud and Bandcamp in the coming weeks.

You can find additional pics via IDOW on Facebook.
You can find IDOW on IndieGoGo here (note although they reached their goal, you can still donate and order items).
This is also a reminder that I should review cEvin Key’s album, which I have enjoyed for quite a while.

Looks like the minimoog was for sale on auction and got snatched up pretty quickly.
CatSynth Video: Arp Odyssey Strange noises and drones, using sample and Hold modulations
From our friends at polynominal.com, another video featuring images of Mimi. The modulated sounds are quite interesting as well – lots of rich noisy timbres.
