3 cool things to do with LFOs & analogue logic, feat. Nekyia Circuits Obsidian

This video is about using analogue logic to do interesting things with basic LFOs. The module I’m using is the Nekyia Circuits Obsidian, which is a pair of identical LFOs with a built-in analogue logic section - and of course you can achieve similar results with other modules too.
Thanks to Nekyia Circuits for sending over Obsidian - find out more about it and buy here:

That melodic sequencer patch was ❤‍🔥

Yes Tom we appreciate your efforts in bringing advanced musical hardware information into the forefront of possible experience people can develop into their own craft and flavor and with videos such as the this little beaut and others I have had the pleasure pleasure to see.... Clap Clap fella keep em coming..... I love the way you progress ideas on layman's terms allowing us the pleasure of learning from you... Blessings from Yorkshire as I once said before you are our Interweaved DivKid 😉thanks for your efforts

I love the ephemeral textures that data was proving very inspiring mate

Thanks Tom, you've given me some things to think about with my Batumi and Distings!

Thank you, your channel explains a lot about all this expensive crap I bought. Subscribed.

Excellent Video! Love your approach to showing off what these modules can do.

[@sealandersoundscapes6403]

Possibility of ideas and experiences are lititless such great fun way to pass time

Oooooh logic on my pitch lfos? Great idea 🙏🏽

[@triangularmerkel]

Great vid, thanks for introducing me to these lovely modules. I hope they start stocking them with a UK dealer because i cba to start a CZcams channel so they'll send me one.

What a great patch! Sounds awesome!

Mystic Circuits Ana is my favorite for these types of things. Thanks for the great videos and patching ideas!

I love all the Nekyia modules. However, one gripe is the Nekyia Opal's switches are at the moment X, Y or off. It would have been far more logical to have X,Y or both.
If I understand correctly, Nekyia have some new modules coming soon. 😉

[@Probbie]

Brilliant; thanks!! 😊

Short of a MIN/MAX module? You might like to try patching your own, then again you might not. If you did you could use a comparator and something like a switch, but here's a more mathsy sort of alternative...
To find the MAX of 2 signals (A and B):
1. Mult and invert B (-B)
2. Sum A and -B (the difference)
3. Half rectify this
4. Now sum this half rectified difference with the non-inverted B.
To find the MIN of 2 signals (A and B):
Repeat steps 1-3 to find the half rectified difference
4. Invert this
5. Now sum the result with a multed copy of A.

Fascinating!👀... Have U tried using 2 LFOs to modulate pan & VCF resonance simultaneously?😎... I.E., LFO_1 modulates PAN & LFO_2 modulates Filter Resonance!👽... It sounds Bitchin'!😎

[@sealandersoundscapes6403]

I use a dual LFO device in Reason and it will create some lovely ethereal pads or textures

[@brokenscart7989]

Finally have a data I see, haha!

[@TomChurchill]

Haha, I really don't know why it took me so long! It's absolutely essential for a video like this one :)
