A Yamaha DX7 synthesizer

DX7 cleanup and battery change

Last year I was lucky and got hold of a DX7 at a far too low price. It worked fine, but it had the original battery, and its voltage was starting to get low. The problem with the DX7 battery is that it's soldered to the main board.

I kind of liked the textures this patch produces. It's a simple generative patch, drenched in reverb. Recording and patch file below. Vcvrack generative0:00/482.9856661×generative1generative1.vcv3 KBdownload-circle

Fennifith Media Transmitter - Mauver than a Joopleberry

Prevent tracking from Stripe and Ko-fi widgets on Faircamp

Alpha Juno saw wave PWM in Bitwig Grid

Here's an approxmation of the Alpha Juno's saw PWM. Adding PWM to a saw wave is easy, but the saw wave in the grid is too perfect to match the Alpha Juno. So I did some more adjustments. 💡Bitwig version: 5.0Saw wave PWMSaw wave PWM.

Bitwig Grid without oscillators: Array

I'm trying out ways to make grid patches without using oscillator modules. This is a patch where a waveform is generated by storing values in an array module. It is played by reading the values out at different speeds. This makes for a quite digital sound which constantly
