This project improves the timbre of the state-variable filter. This filter mainly consists of two state-variable filters, a multiplier, and a Wien bridge oscillator. The two state-variable filters are connected in a cascading arrangement. The output signals from the state-variable filters and the Wien bridge oscillator are fed into the multiplier. The output signal of this filter is the sum of the output signals from the state-variable filter and the multiplier. The all-pass filter used in a conventional state-variable filter has been replaced with a multiplier. The gain and frequency of the Wien bridge oscillator are primarily controlled by the control signal--a variable resistor and an analog photocoupler. In the sixth track, a Waveform Audio File Format file is played back using the synthesizer system's computer. The computer's output signal is input to the mixer via a Direct-to-Analog Converter (DAC). The previous system used a Universal Serial Bus audio interface but this was replaced with a DAC to improve sound quality. Track 1 features an aggressive oscillating sound; Track 2, deep bass; Track 3, three sustained high-pitched sounds; Track 4, unique modulated sounds; Track 5, white noise; and Track 6, death growls and the sound of friction on tin. The effect is powerful and diverse.
Ichiro Tsuji was born in 1966. He started working on noise/industrial music for his band named "Dissecting Table" in Tokyo in 1986. He returned to his hometown of Hiroshima in 1998, and has been pursuing musical activities ever since. His records and compact disks have been released under the independent label of the UPD organization, and under labels in Europe and the United States. In the first and middle stage of his career he controlled the synthesizer and sampler by the sequencer, but since 2012, the works have been produced by controlling PWM signals output from a USB device on a computer. Lately the work is being made by developing an original synthesizer system.
