Made with Pianoteq 8
The person who did it (not me!) stated that he played some chords into arpeggiators and whatnot, saved the MIDI, and edited the MIDI.

Iâve given Hilda a spin, too.
I really do like the sound, but two notes. 1, by comparison with the make noise easel, the fixed routings make it considerably less flexible. 2. The sequencer just modulating pitch and velocity, especially, seems like a missed opportunity. The DFAM âvelocityâ has behind the hood envelope modulation that gives it so much character, and this is just loudness, and the difference is an immediate disappointment.
Inside of Drambo, where all the knobs including the touch pads can be modulated per-step, both of these problems evaporate, and itâs very, very fun.
Edit: couple extra notes on HildaâŚ
Whatâs labeled as âsubâ is the modulating oscillator and FM is through-zero I believe (no pitch change at high index, gets glassy), ratios up to 4x.
The filter self-resonates very pleasantly with the drive setting up, can be modulated with Slope and complex LFO but no way to âplayâ it/track pitch.
Slope triggers with each note, like a pretty basic patch on 0-coast, or cycles, and doesnât retrigger in rising phase, and goes just up to audible rates.
Waves are very different from 0-coast, a sine through âsquaresawâ (still folds) to saw, timbreâs function beyond amplification is unclear on scope.
There are a lot of things I wish could be modulation targets here (slope, envelopes, delay settings), but I havenât encountered anything that canât be modulated by a host app like Drambo.
Itâd be a pale substitute for a real live Make Noise system, but gets plenty weird and is a little easier to get rolling with than trying to duplicate it in miRack Drambo or the like, and the layout is generally pleasant and fun (Iâd prefer it to miRack or Drambo oscillators).
Yeah it sounds great but Iâd love a bit more modulation choice. Would be great to be able to map the touch points to some modulation too, the effects are a bit gimmicky for my liking
You can. You can modulate anything - itâs all brought out to CCs so you can assign LFOs to whatever you like
Drambo is perfect for this.
Ah cool, is it possible to disable the effects so they just work as CCs?
The touch plates as well as all main panel knobs can be mapped within Drambo or presumably other host apps, if thatâs what youâre asking?
Do you mean turn off the touch plates so that they donât work unless theyâre controlled via MIDI? I donât think so
The new Hilda app, sweeping the filter over a sequence modulating some parameters in Drambo, uneven loudness warning.
Neu COTCD Kollage sample/patch heap for FRMS just dropped. On intro sale til May 9th. Thnx in advance anyone who cops it, hope you dig itđ (& apologies for the self-promo!).
Demo Pt.1 (patches 1-30) -
Yeah sorry I didnât explain myself that well. I was wondering if itâs possible to disable the touch points so that they donât control the effects, but instead reroute them (eg via MIDI) so they control other parameters of the synth. Could be cool. Seems like the answer is no though.
Was just playing around and was quite surprised to find 2x Ruismaker Noir and 2x Hilda was enough to make my iPad Pro 3rd Gen start cracking, never really had that before. Seems Hilda is quite power hungry!
Brilliant work as always. Time to explore some new music with these. â˘
Thnx so much man! Look forward to hearing what you cook upâ:v:
Installed it a couple of hours ago (thanks @echo_opera for pointing it out, I missed the original post).
Itâs excellent, had lots of fun jamming, and Iâve only gone through the first 3 presetsâŚ!
Thnx man, appreciate you grabbing the pack & the kind words! Stoked you dig it.
Recorded another quick pack demo using only the pack (except drums) today
COTCD Kollage FRMS edition demo
Heads up anyone thinking about grabbing the pack, intro sale finishes tonight. Big thnx to everyone that already copped it!
Two cool new apps I learned about today:
New Scaper app, kind of weird and wonderful as ever but some great presets âGlitchScaper on the App Store
Pixel Music, kind of simple but fun idea in that it reads colours from (a low res version of) any image on your device and turns them into a sequence, with options for scale etc. âPixel Music on the App Store
koala sampler is good for this.
import the sample from audioshare into koala.
drag the sample to an empty pad (copy it).
then drag the copy back onto the original.
then select âAdd to endâ, and now you have doubled your loop.
GlitchScaper is brilliant! love Igor Vasilievâs apps, and this one can add some very funky layers to a beat. Have used it a lot as an AU in Drambo already.
A little more understandable in the interface also than some of his more out there apps, though unlocking the puzzle of how things work as always been part of the appeal for me with his stuff.
Totally, what I like about his stuff is itâs really out there but also sounds great without needing to know whatâs going on
