Fala Versio | Versio Platform | Episode 13

Noise Engineering has just released three new firmwares for the Versio, Legio and Alia platforms. As always, they're amazing and they're free downloads for any of those platforms. Fala Versio is a formant filter that's super easy to use. It will add a lot of vocal expression to your patch. On mild settings you can create choir-like sounds, on more extreme settings it will talk. In short, it's just amazing.

This is a simple video, which was a warm bath after my last Leibniz video. I'll be using MakeNoise Strega, Bruxa, Serge Medusa and the Broken Loquelic as my sound sources which create an excellent mood for the time between XMAS and the happy new year. I did not make any 'best wishes' or 'best of 2024' video this year because I couldn't finish it in time. I also realized that my 'best of 2024' are never going to be my all time favorites (except the new Serge Medusa and Instruo Dail).

Obviously I wish you all the best and I am hoping you'll have a great time patching the modular during the holiday season - and beyond. I'll probably post something before the end of the year.

Serge has been a personal discovery in 2024, so instead of getting the latest modules, I went back to 70's tech and it's a dream come true. I also love Bruxa a lot. Objectively the Joranalogue x Hainbach Collide 4 is a major achievement in eurorack, and it's impossible to ignore DivKid's colllab-contributions to the eurorack landscape, including the Droid patch.
I still need to figure out my DivSkip. XAOC Berlin is a must-have in the Leibniz niche, but on it's own it's just a very basic VCO. Another favorite is Oneiroi and it's cool to see that Black Maths is on the bestseller list, proving the old stuff doesn't get old. The new Buchla/TTA modules are also dreams that came true and it's great to finally have an orginal 259 . I didn't have time to dive into the new Qu-Bit StarDust looper, but I bet it will be worth checking out if you want to escape monophony.

You can skip to @06:30 if you want to hear Fala talk :).

Inspirational, as always! I love your modular explorations!!!

[amjourney]

Damn. Love your videos. Even modules I would not have in my rig, still find fascinating what you do. You and Monotrail are the bomb!

[xaviduch]

As always, super useful demo!! Thank you and happy new year! ;)

[MichaelFurtak]

Great demo! I thought that the Toros Iteritas Alia would be my pick of the new bunch, but clearly Fala deserves a deeper look.

[KarolOstrovsky]

Thank you for the inspiring exploratory videos. Among them are many on NE modules. I am only missing the last video(s) to cover their full range: Xer Mixa. A CVable mixer sounds like a very useful tool. Any chance you might look at it?

Nice navigation!
BTW, what modules use sinewave partials for polyphony?
Thanks, and keep your meisterwerk going!
