Korg MS-20 - Endless Space Loop HQ

Published on Mar 22, 2013 Newueel·38 videos

"This is a simplified version of the endless space loop patch, which I uploaded some years ago. The part where you could add extra noise using the control wheel has been omitted. Only some delay is added to the sound, no other effects, no mastering.

If you are interested in patch and knob settings, ensure you're watching HQ and check out the knobs whenever you like the sound.
This patch also works on the iMS-20 and the MS-20 legacy software, and of course on the new mini (although, unfortunately I've not been able to test the mini yet).

Some info on the patch:
The modulation generator is functioning as a clock generator, and triggers the main envelope (EG2) continuously. Both of the MG knobs can be used to adjust gate time and clock speed.
The sample and hold module samples random values from pink noise. This is done every clock pulse. The sampled value is used for frequency modulations (OSC + HPF + LPF).

Wanna try it for yourself?
Almost any of the knobs are available for tweaks, so there's a lot of room for your own imagination and creativity. Here are the most important notes/limitations to keep in mind:
- Ensure EG2 hold and release are set to 0. Attack, decay and sustain can be used without a problem.
- EG1 parameters cannot be used since the envelope is used as a clock signal for the S&H module. (All knobs at 0!)
- The MG cannot be used as an LFO (unless you want an LFO with the clock speed)

PS. Since YouTube doesn't support endless movies -and for some other technical reasons-, I decided to record only 5 minutes of the whole piece. Sorry for the misleading title. ;-)
