Watched the Sonic Talk on Superbooth 2020 discussion with Nick, Robin Vincent (of GearNews), BoBeats, and DivKid. Picked up a few things.
DivKid called this years Superbooth – “The Year of the Stereo Filter”. There have been a few of them, so perhaps we can make a list here. And he talked (at 23:50) about two Eurorack modules from Shakmat, that i had missed, but they both look nice. The Dual Dagger, another stereo filter, but in this case a dual stereo filter, so four filters all nicely controllable. He also mentioned the Shakmat Bard Quartet, which i want. It’s a four channel melodic quantizer with microtonal tuning and with added intelligence to output triggers on change and respond to clocks so it does both four channel melodic and rhythmic things.
Robin Vincent pointed out that so far none of the “majors” (the Korgs, Rolands, and Yamahas etc) have announced anything. No OPSIX … yet. They wanted a Volca Video.
That brought DivKid (at 37:00) to talk about the Sleepy Circuits – Hypno which is a really simple to use Eurorack video performance module (composite,HDMI and NDI USB). Basic but it looks nice, sonething you could just have this one module and be done with it, unless you want to really get fancy.
Robin then mentions the Critter & Guitari - EYESY Video Synthesizer in comparison to the Hypno module. (The EYESY looks a little more basic to me.)
They talked about the Cre8audio NiftyBUNDLE.
DivKid brought up (51:20) the WORNG – Parallax and Vertex modules (another stereo filter and a stereo VCA). WORNG makes some very nice stuff for building stereo images.
They then talk about live stream video production techniques.
Some aorund here will like this – Nick seems a little ticked at B. Robin being there and all.
