Make Noise DPO: The Beast in the Rack – An Origin Story

The Make Noise DPO stands as a modern classic in the world of Eurorack, and in this video, founder Tony Rolando takes us on a deep dive into its origins, design quirks, and sonic philosophy. With Make Noise’s signature exploratory style, we get a rare look at how the DPO’s dual complex oscillator architecture was shaped by both daydreams and circuit board sleuthing, rather than direct imitation. Expect tales of Buchla-inspired speculation, hands-on patching, and the kind of modulation magic that only a Make Noise module can conjure. For those who care about how oscillators interact, mutate, and misbehave in

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.

MAKEN0ISE: Patching Silence and Dynamics – Three VCA Workouts

In true Make Noise fashion, this video dives into the subtle art of using VCAs not just for loudness, but for sculpting silence and dynamic movement in modular patches. Pete, filling in from the Make Noise Instagram channel, walks through three distinctive approaches: a Binary Zone-inspired Maths + TEMPI patch, a minimal-cable 0-Coast + 0-CTRL setup, and a crossfading, balanced modulation trick with X-PAN and Ch.Svr. The result? A masterclass in how voltage control and clever routing can breathe life—and rests—into your system. If you think VCAs are just for volume, this one’s a gentle nudge to think again.

MAKEN0ISE: Patching Asheville—From Surface Noise to Waterfalls

In this exploratory session from the official MAKEN0ISE channel, Pete takes us on a sonic ramble through Asheville, gathering inspiration from record shops, movie stores, and even the roar of waterfalls. Rather than a standard module demo, this video is a patch diary—showing how environmental textures and found objects can be transformed into voltage-controlled artistry. Expect vinyl crackle, VHS tape ribbon controllers, and the sound of nature itself, all filtered through the Make Noise ethos of experimental modular synthesis. For anyone who’s ever wondered how their surroundings might shape their next patch, this is a gentle nudge to look (and

Make Noise Jumbler: Patch Routing Gets a Shake-Up

Make Noise, the Asheville-based maestros of modular mischief, unveil the Jumbler—a six-by-six analog signal combiner and distributor for Eurorack. This module isn’t just another matrix mixer; it’s a voltage-controlled playground for rerouting, blending, and mutating signals on the fly. In their latest video, Make Noise walks through the Jumbler’s unique approach to patch rearrangement, showcasing its two-parameter control scheme and VCA-based architecture. If you’ve ever wished your patch cables could dance, this might be the closest thing yet.

Make Noise XPO: Dual 1v/Oct Inputs—A Patchable Playground

Make Noise, never one to shy away from unconventional design, brings us the XPO—a stereo oscillator with not one, but two 1v/oct inputs. In this official video, the Make Noise team dives into the practical and creative implications of this rare feature, exploring everything from exponential FM to hands-on transposition and evolving sequences. For those who like their oscillators to do more than just drone in tune, this walkthrough offers a patch-oriented look at how the XPO’s dual pitch inputs can unlock new layers of control and musicality. If you’re curious about stacking sequences, dynamic key shifts, or just want

Chunky Orbits and Stepped Realities: Make Noise Explores MultiMod’s Shaping Power

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular mischief, return with a deep dive into MultiMod’s more eccentric read shapes. This official walkthrough eschews the usual smooth LFO fare, instead focusing on staircase, ramp, and randomised orbits—each offering a different flavour of discontinuity. The video methodically demonstrates how these shapes can be harnessed for everything from stepped modulations to unpredictable gate streams, all while keeping the patching practical and the metaphors suitably crunchy. For those interested in sound design that’s more coleslaw than consommé, this is a must-watch.

Make Noise MultiMod: Replicating and Shifting CV in Modular Melodies

In this latest video from Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular mavericks dive deep into the MultiMod module’s knack for replicating and shifting quantized pitch CV across multiple oscillators. True to Make Noise’s exploratory spirit, the demonstration isn’t just about technical prowess—it’s a hands-on journey through phase-shifted melodies, gestural control, and creative voltage routing. If you’re curious about how MultiMod can transform your melodic sequences, or how time base and phase delays can sculpt evolving soundscapes, this walkthrough offers a patch-oriented perspective with plenty of practical examples. Expect arpeggios, rhythmic interplay, and a few classic Maths cycling tricks along the way.

Make Noise MultiMod: Orbits, Abstractions and Eightfold CV Mayhem

Make Noise, the Asheville-based purveyors of modular oddities, return with the MultiMod—a module that throws conventional metaphors out the airlock in favour of planetary orbits and abstract signal choreography. In their latest video, the Make Noise team walks us through the MultiMod’s ability to generate and manipulate multiple control voltages simultaneously, sidestepping the usual tape loop and buffer analogies for a more cosmic approach. With eight independent outputs, shifting speeds, and a suite of shape controls, this module promises to be a playground for those who see their Eurorack as a solar system of modulation.
