Macbeth X-Series Dual Oscillator


Here it is! The long awaited masterpiece from
Macbeth Studio Systems. You may have seen some of Ken's YouTube videos and you may have heard a couple other demos elsewhere on the web. But you've probably never heard this oscillator at this level of detail. Step up to the lens.

So what do we have?

Various slow frequency sweeps at 32' and 2'
DVCO_Sweep-Tri.wav
DVCO_Sweep-Ramp.wav
DVCO_Sweep-Saw.wav
DVCO_Sweep-Sine.wav
DVCO_Sweep-Square.wav
DVCO_Sweep-Rect-10up-90dn.wav (Rectange frequency sweep @ 10% width up, 90% down)

Tri, Ramp, Saw, Sine, Square, Rectangle Sync w/Manual Width
DVCO_Sync_Ext_LFO.wav

2 Ramp waves tuned a major third with random octave switching
DVCO_Ramp_3rds_Seq_Oct_Switch.wav

Ramp wave with internal X-Mod
DVCO_Ramp_X-Mod.wav

Sine wave with internal X-Mod
DVCO_Sine_X-Mod.wav

Rectangle PWM, External Sine. Note, threre is no attenuation control for the PWM input so attenuation is provided by the Plan B Model 36. The sine wave is provided by the Livewire AFG Oscillator.
DVCO_Rect_PWM_Ext_Sine_Model_36_Att.wav

Ring Mod Sequence with Glide
DVCO_Ring_Mod_Seq_Glide.wav

Ring Mod, 50% X-Mod, 60% Glide with the Plan B Model 24 Heisenberg Stepped Output controlling the pitch.
DVCO_Sync_X-Mod_Model_24.wav

The Birth of Clockfunnel

This is it! The birth of "Clockfunnel" - the Blog. I've decided to create this blog for the expressed purpose of offering clean, no-frills, high quality audio samples of synthesizers, keyboards, effect pedals, plug-ins and sample libraries that will hopefully help prospective buyers make better informed purchasing decisions. The audio samples will be simple, clinical and raw (no effects) to help you hear what the base product actually does so you can decide for yourself how well it might work in your own productions. The goal is to publish clips of products I actually own and use so I can hopefully properly expose the feature set. Well, at least that's the initial intent! We'll see where it goes from here, shall we?
