Modular Synthesis Workshop
Learn the basics of analog and modular synthesis
a biweekly/weekly workshop
We will talk about analog and modular synthesis,
starting with the components of the basic subtractive synthesis signal path, oscillators, filters vca's, envelope generators and lfo's and then possibly get into more complex synthesis skills with sequencers, slope generators, clock dividers...ect..ect.
We will talk about control voltage, triggers, gates, and how these are used to create simple to complex and evolving dynamic sounds.
Pictures of the modular synth rig from the fundraiser can be seen on flickr [1].
Topics of discussion
characteristics of sound and hearing
- range of human hearing
- pitch, timbre, amplitude
history and philosophy of modular synthesizers
- Moog modular
- Buchla
- Serge
- Synthesizers.com
- Doepfer
Components of a typical analog subtractive synth
- oscillator
- filter
- Voltage controlled amp
- Low frequency oscillator (lfo)
- envelope generator
- Control voltage, and gates.
Tools of this workshop
- We will be working on large Moog format style modular synthesizer.
- Workshop will be divided into sections, a discussion followed by 1-1 time for participants with the modular to patch up your own sounds.(depending on attendance)
Future plans, optional discussions (maybe)
- Synth Diy!!
- basic soldering skills
- synth module building
- analog circuits
- different chips and thier uses, ex. tl074 quad op-amp
- different styles of synthesis/techniques, FM, Additive, Wavetable...
- Midi
- DAWS
- Ableton Live skills
If You Would Like to Join Us
- 1st class to held on Saturday, May 4th from 12pm - 6pm.
- Next workshop TBA.
