(NOTE: The video above was recorded using Phazerville v1.5.1; some of the UI functions changed for the better in v1.6.6. Follow the link at the bottom of this section for detailed use instructions, including the changes.)
One of the most maddening things about using a modular synth is how few oscillators track accurately – or at least each other – fresh out of the box. Earlier this year, I decided to pay someone to write some custom firmware for the Ornament & Crime module (o_C) to help me tame the wide variety of sound sources I have.
That firmware is called Calibr8or, written by DJ Phazer, and is demonstrated in the video above. We’ve made it free for everyone with an o_C; it is an app he includes with the Phazerville Suite.
