Creating Two Sequences With One Doepfer A-160 by Frederic Gerchambeau

The latest video from Frederic Gerchambeau features quite an interesting pattern, generated by two different sequences from a single A-160 Trigger Sequencer module.

Video: Creating two sequences with one Doepfer A-160

" With only one Doepfer A-160, it's possible to get two different sequences at the same time. For even more fun, i have used two LFOs to trigger that A-160.
Basically the patch is that one :
Two lfos > multiple > A-160 Trig in
A-160 outputs (x 6) > 3 into mixer 1 and 3 into mixer 2
Output mixer1 > VCO1 and output mixer2 > VCO2
Outputs VCO 1 and 2 > VCA"

More Paper Circuit Control by Frederic Gerchambeau

Since the last time that i posted about Frederic Gerchambeau's paper circuit experiments he has already posted a few more videos further developing of this concept to his GruithuisenCityMan YouTube account.

In these videos he shows how a paper circuit, a simple sheet of paper with a conductive/capacitive substance, can be integrated into a modular system.

I will not publish all his videos here (you can always subscribe to his channel), but this one was interesting enough to share here...

Video: Wandering (paper circuit as a ribbon controller) by Frederic Gerchambeau

" Hello ! My name is Frederic Gerchambeau. 
I have made this movie and this music. The music has been made using a parper circuit and a Doepfer analog modular system.
The paper circuit has four outputs. One leads to the cutoff frequency of lowpass filter 1, another leads to the cutoff frequency of lowpass filter 2, a third one leads to the pitch CV control oscillator 1 and a fourth one leads to the pitch CV control oscillator 2. So, with a wire coming from a Doepfer A-183-2 offset, i can control these four parameters depending where the wire is on the paper circuit. The echo effect comes from a Make Noise Echophon. Enjoy !

Paper Circuit Controlling a Doepfer A-152 Sequencer by Frederic Gerchambeau

Frederic Gerchambeau uploads interesting analog/modular videos to his GruithuisenCityMan YouTube account very frequently.
This time he hasn't uploaded a musical piece, but just an interesting demo of an idea.
In the video he shows how a paper circuit, a simple sheet of paper with an unknown conductive/capacitive substance, can be integrated into a modular system.
Sadly Frederic's videos don't often come with a lot of information...

The idea is not new, but i haven't seen the use of it in combination with the A-152 Voltage Addressed Track&Hold / Analog Shift Register.
Earlier this year I posted about another project using a capacitive paint, you can find that HERE.
I assume the same Bare Conductive paint is used here, but i'm not sure...
