Found this chap's posts in Vimeo today.
Terrific results from a limited number of key modules. Something Churchillian here - rarely have such good noises been made by one person with so few modules.
I have been fascinated by synthesisers since Wendy Carlos's first album. I started buying eurorack modules when approaching retirement and have continued while a person of leisure. I don't perform, I just make noises. Sometimes I get bored with the range and pretentiousness of boutique modules, but I always return to the noises. I get as almost much pleasure from building the housing units as playing with the modules themselves.

Case #4 Noise
| Delptronics LDB |
| 4ms RCD |
I have taken it apart again to add I/O jack sockets on both sides.
Should be about done this week.
Modules I am currently seeking are Pamela's Workout, VILFO and a delay, either Pittsburgh or foh.
I am also rather intrigued by the Delptronics Little Drummer Boy. The demo on their site shows it running with the 4ms Rotating Clock Divider

Two power supplies as the Trogotronic has its own: red because the 676 is too.

The power supply board is in place and the first rack built. Something of a miscalculation on the design: I hadn't allowed for the bolts used in the rack-ears and so could have used a single sheet of ply which would have allowed slightly more HP.

uLFO patch link
There's a great demo here by machinate.
The embed seems to flip to another of his - I'll try to sort that out later.In the meantime, select from the playlist, bottom left of the screen.
The modules mentioned are:

The modules mentioned are:
- Bubblesound uLFO - sine out to
- A110 VCO - sine out to (from the posted comments)
- "bugbrand pt-delay frac modified for euro. The closest thing commercially available is the FoH Sound of Shadows, which uses the exact same chip"
- the delay is being CD modulated by the sine shape out from the uLFO
- the rate of the uLFO is controlled by another LFO (in this case the Doepfer A147 VCLFO)
- half way through, he modulates the VCLFO from the uLFO sine mod out

Trogotronic 676
Having moved the Rietveld desk to the back bedroom, the first noise was from the 676 and the Doepfer Spring Reverb. I began by using the uLFO to provide CV control, but abandoned this for knob-twiddling by hand. The 676 is sensitive to variations and the strategy I have learned is to fiddle gently with the other controls, then adjust the modulator until it gets edgy again.Another first, a video on Vimeo using the Sony 190: sound from the camera as a temporary measure.
