]]>First LastnameMyriad2026-06-03T04:03:03+01:002026-06-03T04:03:03+01:00http://localhost:4000/launch/myriadWe’re very happy to announce that Myriad is launching today. Myriad is a ‘pataphonic’ multioscillator -a stereo sound source with an experimental twist that moves from standard waveforms to monster drones and glassy moving textures. It represents our research into new sound synthesis methods with ‘bitwave’ synthesis, and application of dynamic artificial life algorithms as meta-modulation systems.

It’s available now in built form from shops (distributed by Signal Sounds), or in kit form from Thonk.

ELI will be there for the weekend, launching our new module (watch this space!), and also Dimitris will be doing a talk ‘Byte to Patch’ on the Data Stage about livecoding in the eurorack ecosystem.

Also there’s more Emute Lab research, with Noise Peddlar presenting too on the data stage.

It now has selectable themes, control of font size, and improved appearance. Also we’ve fixed a bug with the undo function, and with orphaned brackets.

We were off to a great start on Friday night with B Movie and an inspiring interview with John Foxx. On Saturday, we demoed useq, and previewed our new multi-oscillator module Myriad. We also showed a unit from the MEML project that does some playful sequencing with machine learning.

]]>First LastnameEmute Lab Instruments releases uSEQ Livecoding Synth Module2024-06-27T04:03:03+01:002024-06-27T04:03:03+01:00http://localhost:4000/blog/useq-releaseuSEQ Kit

uSEQ brings together code and cables, opening up modular synthesis to the vast possibilties of livecoding. With a simplified coding engine, based on the LISP language, uSEQ can be used for sequencing, voltage processing, waveform and pattern generation, generative music, polyrhythms, long structured pieces, algorave performances and more.

The module has pulse and CV inputs and outputs, pots and switches, all accessible via a small computer onboard. Connect to the module over USB using the in-browser editor, and send code that tells the module how to function.

uSEQ is released on 27th June 2024. It’s available as a kit from Thonk and as a built module from Signal Sounds.
