Description :
Bazille: a monster from the depths
The second project of Berlin Modular, Bazille is a large polyphonic modular system with digital (PD, FM) oscillators, multi-mode filters and a lot of modulation options. With so many possibilities to explore, the patches in Bazille should captivate you for years to come – it’s definitely a “geek machine”!Peculiarities
Functions :
Bazille’s highly flexible modules
are quite unusual for a modular synthesizer.
While the filters are traditional analog models, the oscillators are unabashedly digital: they combine two technologies that made digital synthesis accessible (and analog synthesizers suddenly fashionable) in the 1980s – FM (frequency modulation, or more accurately “phase modulation”) and PD (phase distortion).
In Bazille, each oscillator panel has five separate sections:
Pitch, Phase/FM, Phase Distortion, Fractal Resonance, and Outputs, each of which has a modulation input.
Since the four main oscillators have a frequency range starting at zero hertz, they can be used as synchronized or unsynchronized LFOs and can also take on individual shapes thanks to Bazille’s mapping generators. The oscillators are also capable of producing all types of FM sounds by connecting an audio source to the phase modulation input.
One of the most interesting features of Bazille’s powerful oscillators is an unusual process we call Fractalize. This can be used to create very bold sounds from tamed waveforms, with results similar to the classic cutting sound of a sync effect.
Alternative Skin
Would you prefer to have all controls on one page?
Bazille comes with a larger, more compact skin called GearPorn, which dramatically changes the user experience. Ideal for Bazille experts, this skin is also the choice of ambitious beginners.
To enable the skin, simply right-click on the Bazille interface and select it from the menu.
