Landscape Noon (Yellow)

Noon is an 8 channel powerless instrument, activated and modulated using voltage from external sequencers. It's analogue circuits are powered momentarily by incoming gate and control voltage signals causing them to oscillate and breathe naturally. When these circuits are linked together they can grow, inform and process one another in complex rhythmic ways. This technique increases the unstable properties of analogue circuits, causing increased organic textures and movement. The simple controls are provided to ensure immediacy and access to rapidly alter sounds and movement without patching.

☁︎Which Sequencers/Control Voltage Sources Work

Each model of voltage sequencer will have different effects on the tonality of the instrument due to differences in power and feature sets between manufacturers. NOTE: The strongest recommendations for Noon are currently the Arturia Beatstep Pro and Eurorack modular systems. This is due to the strength of power provided and quick access to gate/control voltage variations. Noon has shown great results with these sequencers (and voltage source examples) thus far:

-Sequentix Cirklon / Arturia Beatstep Pro / ALM Busy Circuits Pamala’s Workout / Make Noise 0-ctrl / Westlicht Per Former / Qu-Bit Contour / Schlappi Engineering Angle Grinder / Music Thing Turing Machine + Pulses mkii / Polyend Poly 2 / Sixty Four Pixels CV.OCD / Social Entropy Engine / Making Sound Machines Stolperbeats / Soma Ornament-8 / Soma Pulsar-23 / Acid Rain Technology Constellation / Five12 Vector Sequencer / Mannequins Just Friends / Mutable Instruments Marbles & Stages / Expert Sleepers ES-9 / OXI One / monome medowphysics / Meng Qi Voltage Memory / ⌘various audio rate oscillators

☂︎Which Sequencers/Control Voltage Sources Don’t.

Given the very close relationship between Noon and what’s driving it you could experience non-flattering results in some cases. We’ve mostly found that USB powered sequencers (*other than the BSP) provide less power. Please Note: two of these were listed in the working category previously but after some circuit changes and further testing we can’t recommend them without using an external MIDI to CV converter for additional power.

-Korg SQ-64 (low power, can activate some voices but not all)

-Synthstrom Deluge (low power, can activate some voices but not all)

-Torso T-1 (low power, can activate some voices but not all)
