The Undulating Noise Machine
The undulating noise machine comes with 2 modules. A player which loops samples of white, pink and brown noise (the sound at the same speed as the resting human heart rate (60 bpm) ). The second module allows you to create an ambience by adding effects and rhythmic motions by simply drawing a motion on the dedicated pad. Unfortunately, there is no record feature, despite this I will rate it as a Killer App, because of its great UI and for the fun that you have in creating an ambience.
Circuit bending: Tanner Galvin’s NOYS TOISE
A mini-documentary about a “circuit bender” named Tanner Galvin who creates artistic and technically sophisticated musical instruments using old toys and keyboards.

Experimental: Hecq forges music from noise
Whether under his artist moniker Hecq or as in-demand sound designer for film and tv, Ben Lukas Boysen has made a career out of transforming unusual sounds into compelling music. We visited Ben in his studio for a fascinating look at how he gathered and transformed the unconventional audio material for his latest endeavour, The Forge – a hugely versatile Pack that’s part of the exclusive sound content in the upcoming Ableton Live 9 Suite.
The upcoming Ableton Live 9 Suite is packed with a huge variety of sounds, instruments, and effects. In a new video we spotlight a few of the devices that give you deep and precise control of your music. Check out the Buffer Shuffler, LFO and LFO MIDI, Mono Sequencer, Envelope Follower and XY Pad in action.
SUPERNOVA II Synth Demo – Experimental noise and chip tunes
Experimental noise / ambient drone soundscape played live on Novation Supernova 2 keyboard synthesizer. Utilizing comb filter, reverb, Q Norm, resonance, LFO and filter adjustments.
Performed live, no external processing. Excerpt from a longer session.

Experimental: Laserloper – Noise generator
As falling sand interrupts the flow of a laser to a light-sensitive sensor (a photodetector), the circuit produces random oscillations of sound. It’s the latest brilliant creation of the Dutch scientist Gijs Gieskes, the industrial designer-turned-musician whose inventions often center on some physical and mechanical apparatus. Just for good measure, the project is mounted to a clear frame so it can be fit to a Eurorack modular setup.
The Mellow Sounds of the Make Noise DPO
Youtube alias ‘skrapadelix’ takes us through the softer side of the Make Noise DPO:
I just wanted to share the softer side of the remarkable Make Noise DPO, the most organic and alive oscillator I have in my rack. This simple patch is just the Noisering into the uScale into the DPO in ‘Lock’ mode with a slow envelope softly plucking the Waveshaper ‘s vactrol. The result is a subtle mysterious timbre of understated beauty…

The Wablet – physics based synthesiser and noise toy
Robert Tubb has introduced The Wablet, a “physics based synthesiser and noise toy”.
An animated mesh of springs can be vibrated with the fingers. A path around this mesh is read as into an audio waveform, and hence your gestures are turned into sound. Complex evolving drones, chiptunes bleeps or full on noise can be produced, and beautiful undulating patterns created. The physical properties of the mesh can be changed using the sliders, new sound-paths can be drawn onto the Mesh and the App comes with a Max/MSP patch for wireless MIDI control and more in depth adjustable parameters. The Wablet scans the current state of the interactive mass-spring network and uses that waveshape as an oscillator cycle for synthesizing sound.
The Wablet – being triggered via MIDI over a wireless network. No two loops are quite the same.

EMW Voltage Controlled Digital Noise – Eurorack module
New EMW Eurorack module, the Voltage Controlled Digital Noise. Just reverb was added.
On this patch our Sequential Voltage and our Sample & Hold modules are controlling the VCF cutoff frequency. Later we used the second Sample & Hold output to modulate the Digital Noise frequency.
