Cinematic Drones & Sound Design with Roland SYSTEM-500 Eurorack Modules (Patreon)
Content
Hello, I hope you're all well. First a quick little update RE the giveaway I mentioned last week.
Doing a giveaway through Patreon is against the rules and terms of service on the platform as it all gets blurry and into various laws around the world relating to running a raffle. This gets mega complicated and understandably Patreon don't allow any sort of raffle/giveaway on the platform. I had an email from them asking me to remove the post (so I have) but I just wanted to mention it here. Now I know none of you were here for any sort of giveaway and actually none of you could have been, as I just said I'd give something away based on the previous lot of pledges ... but I hope there's no disappointment.
DON'T FORGET to go join the Discord page as a Patreon supporter. Lots of great chat and sharing of ideas and music etc over there. Here's a join link - https://discord.gg/nMUSjZ - but it's only active for a short period of time. If you link your Patreon account to a Discord account you'll automatically join the group.
VIDEO - Info on the video above copied below, but I have a demo with the 555 coming and rather than use this for that video I wanted to break it out into some stand alone content as I wanted to spend the time explaining and exploring the patch.
I've been having a lot of fun with the SYSTEM-500 Eurorack modules from Roland. Making a whole range of percussion, drones, FX, drum one shots etc. I have a video coming soon on the 555 module which features Ring Modulation, Noise, LFO, S&H (sample and hold) and Portamento (slew/lag/glide) generation too. This stereo drone patch (with no FX I should add, totally dry SYSTEM-500) came out of trying to make the most out of the 555 module using each section for various bits of modulation in the patch. In turn out quite cinematic and evoking for a deep moving sound bed that would work well set to picture ... I think so anyway.
