EMW-200 Video

7/24/2012

This is an improvisation featuring the EMW-200 from Electronic Music Works. No external effects or processing was used. The main patch contains three sub-patches. The first is the S/H module controlling VCO2 and then fed to the delay module. The second has the triangle wave on the master oscillator and VCO 1 ring modulating in the wave shaper section. And finally the noise output is being low pass filtered and then being ring modulated by the dedicated LFO (which is also modulating the pitch of VCO 1). Each sub-patch is routed to the left and right channels of the six channel mixer.

I am struck by the warm and organic tones that can be generated by this instrument, as well as the sometimes unexpected sounds that can result from very small changes in the controls. If you have ever thought about getting a modular synthesizer but were afraid of the getting carried away with the expense, this one is for you. Some very complicated signal routing is possible here and it integrates well with external gear. In an upcoming video I will be pairing the EMW-200 with some external effects, as well as the DotCom synth modules. In the next few weeks I should be receiving this synths dedicated controller, the EMW-300.
