Europa Vostok BC Delay Jam #2

This started as an all Analogue Solutions jam and was primarily a test of the Accent & Legato features of the Europa sequencer.
Then a fine fellow asked about the Tyme Sefari, so I threw that in as well. Since I love delays so much, I then added the Analogue Systems RS-290/295 into the mix. Besides the 2 delays, EVERYTHING is Analogue Solutions (ASol) on this one.

The ASol Vostok is pretending to be a TB-303 and is connected to the RS-290. I'm really beginning to appreciate the implementation of the MIDI to CV convertor on the ASol items. You can use Accent and Legato on your sequencer, in my case the ASol Europa beta-test unit, and then use the MIDI-to-CV convertor to control parameters. In this video, I've got Accent firing off EG2 on the Vostok which is controlling the LPF Cutoff through a resistor pin in the matrix and also the RS-290's feedback parameter.

The ASol Black Coffee is also faking a TB-303. The same thing is going on with the built-in MIDI-to-CV convertor: the Accent and Legato will sweep the filter and turn on Glide respectively. The Black Coffee then feeds The Harvestman's Tyme Sefari for delays and sonic degradation. The Black Coffee also has a really neat X-Mod feature for modulating the filter's frequency. I switch this in and out once in a while. It is easily possible to tell one machine from the other in two ways: you can see the Red LED near my left hand at the top of the screen. That Red LED is the Black Coffee's EG firing. Also, the Black Coffee is going through the Tyme Sefari. So, you can easily tell that when I'm messing with the Tyme Sefari, it has to be the Black Coffee. Everything else except the drums is the Vostok and the RS-290. The RS-290 is the module with the bright green LCD display.

I've been testing the Europa for about a week now. Fortunately for me, and for anyone listening to this, I programmed the majority of all my sequences in complementary keys. Thus, I could switch around banks without things clashing too much.
