Befaco - Burst (more than a basic burst!)

TIMING INDEX BELOW TO SKIP AROUND AS YOU SEE FIT :)

Here's the new Burst eurorack module from Befaco released this week right alongside Muxlicer (links below). Burst is way more than a basic burst generator in that it doesn't just spurt a burst or triggers out at a set rate. It works with clocks or 'pings' to set the tempo/timing and then the quality knob and CV select a burst of 1 to 16 triggers which multiple in the space. So clock or ping it it with a quarter note then get eighths, eighth note triplets, sixteenths, quintuplets, sextuplets, septuplets and so on. Play these against other rhythms and they will be TRUE POLYRHYTHMS! None of the "this does polyrhythms" marketing rubbish just because patterns don't run to the same lengths (ask my about Polyrhythms, personal bug bear! ;) . The unit then works with a distribution control to ramp up or down the speak or keep them evenly spaced. This will give scrape or bouncing ball like sounds that are great for synthesis real percussion sounds. There's then probability, tempo divide or multiply and and end of cycle output. This can also loop to be a CV-able rhythm generator too. Really nice.

00:00 Hello and patch previews

00:42 Verbal Feature Down - ping input, tap tempo, looping, manual trigger, quantity settings, CV modulation, burst distribution, time division / multiplication, probability, tempo output, end of cycle EOC and main output.

03:13 Percussion Synthesis Claps - distribution, quantity, looping, polyrhythm, bouncing ball effects, probability, CV over parameters, EOC.

08:34 Looping rhythm / pattern generator - looping, ping, ratchets / bursts, CV over quantity, probability, end of cycle output variations.

12:12 Heavy modulation over a melodic patch - CV over every parameter while keeping things melodic and musical.

13:42 Subtle and musical bursts - added 32nd note ratchets to a bassline / riff. Using probability for variation and stripping back the density of the pattern.

16:30 Wonky clock generator - tap tempo, modulating distributing to vary a clock for a human / humanise or “wonky” effect.
