MAKEN0ISE Resynthesizer: Smoke, Memory and Modular Crossfire

In this Make Noise video, we’re treated to a re-imagined patch on the Resynthesizer, drawing on techniques honed during the company’s formative years. The patch, inspired by the hazy atmosphere of wildfire season, explores cross-clocking and interlocked modulation between modules like Morphagene and Mimeophone. As is typical for Make Noise, the focus is on creative signal flow and evolving, atmospheric textures rather than rigid sequences. The result is a demonstration of how environmental inspiration and patch experimentation can lead to uniquely evocative sonic landscapes—perfect for those who think in voltages and feedback loops.
