Joranalogue Audio Design: Random Steps the Lab-Grade Way with STEP 8 & SELECT 2

Ever fancied a Eurorack sequence that’s mostly predictable, but with a dash of chaos in just the right spot? Joranalogue Audio Design, the Belgian masters of precision analogue, deliver a tutorial that walks through exactly that—using STEP 8, SELECT 2, and a bit of clever patching to randomise only specific steps in your sequence. The video, hosted by Simon, is a patcher’s delight, showing how to wrangle randomness without losing harmonic control. If you’re after new ways to spice up your modular grooves without descending into total anarchy, this one’s for you.

Joranalogue Audio Design: Sequencing Alchemy with STEP 8 and ROUTE 4

Joranalogue Audio Design, the Belgian purveyors of precision Eurorack, return with a patch walkthrough that’s all about wringing extra mileage from your sequencer. In this video, Simon demonstrates how to conjure two related—yet distinct—melodic lines from a single STEP 8 sequencer, using the ROUTE 4 module as a clever signal extractor. The approach is classic Joranalogue: clean, methodical, and brimming with modular potential. If you’ve ever wondered how to multiply your patching options without multiplying your modules, this is a deep dive worth your voltage.

Joranalogue Audio Design: Patch Experiments with On-Grid Random Gates

Randomness is all well and good, but in modular, chaos without a clock is just anarchy. In this latest Joranalogue Audio Design video, Simon dives into the art of generating random gates that remain obediently tethered to your rhythmic grid. Using a backbone of classic Joranalogue modules—Orbit 3, Compare 2, and Step 8—he demonstrates how to wrangle chaos and probability into musically useful, quantized triggers. If you’ve ever wondered how to inject controlled unpredictability into your patches, this is a deep, patch-oriented exploration that’s sure to inspire both seasoned Eurorack heads and curious tinkerers alike.

Joranalogue Audio Design’s STEP 8: One Sequencer, Many Voices – A Patch Walkthrough

Joranalogue Audio Design, known for their precision Eurorack modules, present a deep-dive into the STEP 8 sequencer’s ability to drive multiple voices from a single melodic source. In this walkthrough, Simon demonstrates how STEP 8 isn’t just a sequencer but a versatile hub for melodic invention, randomization, and creative CV mixing. The video explores how to extract, transpose, and route CV to create evolving melodies and basslines, all from one sequence. If you’re looking to squeeze more musicality from fewer modules, this patching technique might just inspire your next modular session.
