"Video of gutiar being run into the serge audio interface, resonant eq and into the mixer. The signal from the guitar also generates a transient which we use to trigger an envelope which is attached to the main volume, filter and various other CV inputs.

When the guitar is mute the sequence is mute. Very cool stuff. Video 1 of 2 (maybe 3)"

Haken Audio Continuum Continuum Fingerboard Version 5.01 Released

via Haken Audio: "We have released a new firmware version for the Continuum Fingerboard, version 5.01. This version includes additions to the innovative programmable synthesizer in the Continuum Fingerboard, the EaganMatrix [video posted here].
The EaganMatrix design was inspired by classical modular matrix patching synthesizers such as the ARP 2500 and the EMS Synthi 100. However, unlike those analog predecessors, the EaganMatrix doesn't use pins to make patch point connections. Instead, a dynamic formulaic equation can be placed inside a selected patch point, replacing that static pin, creating a simple to amazingly complex relationship between the Continuum playing surface and the flow of sound from patch point source to destination."
"The press release is available here [JPEGs of PDF below], and you can read more about it online here. The download for version 5.01 is available in the downloads section of the Haken Audio site."

Magic Echo Music MEM PALette v2 Semi-Modular Synthezier


via MEM

"The functions are mostly identical to the original PALette, the synth we love to make.

The changes in V2 are realized through the notable improvements in circuit board design and manufacturing.

We are proud of the improvements, as all PCB mounted hardware are quality parts and the build is durable and reliable for touring. We added internal compensation for room temperature, so that the voltage controlled oscillators are in tune wherever you are.

PALette V2 uses matched transistors so that you get improved tracking with external 1v/octave CV keyboards, and we moved the patch panel to the front, making an accessible interface with 1/4″ cables.

Lastly and importantly, we maintained the original sound design of the PALette that we are passionate about!

(Have you heard some of our demos from V1? They are here on Soundcloud.)

Dimensions:

Panel, 16″ wide x 9″ high; Height, 3.5″

You can now pre-order above and be the first to receive a PALette V2 when they become available. Please allow until late May as we complete the final stages of manufacture and processing of your order. If you have any questions before you move on any further, feel free to contact MEM and let us answer your questions!"

Signal Arts Tetra MAPS with Original Box

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction

"*Brand New/Unopened* (Except to take photos for this Ebay listing, of course):

Signal Arts Tetra Maps Sequencer - Desktop Tabletop Version

The Sequencer is brand new & in it's original box. Auction comes with Sequencer, Operation Manuals, & original Signal Arts power adapter.
It was purchased new & never used and has been in storage ever since. I did remove it from it's box to be able to take photographs for this Ebay listing.

The Tetra "Midi Analog Performance Sequencer" (Tetra MAPS) is an extremely versatile and intuitive sequencer. This thing is truly bad ass & capable of many cool tricks and features! This version is the desktop version, which I don't believe Signal Arts produces any longer.

The Tetra MAPS gives you infinite virtual tracks, modulations and multiple, real-time versions of each sequence, polyphonic sequencing, as well as four channels of CV output and computer network Open Sound Control. It has an Ethernet port for device networking Ethernet communications using Open Sound Control (OSC). You can control the Tetra MAPS and send real-time data to OSC enabled applica-tions such as iPad TouchOSC, MAX/MSP, Lemur and more. You can also network together multiple Tetra MAPS sequencers using OSC messages.

It has analog voice control with Full-featured four channel MIDI to Control Voltage conversion (MCV) with authentic mono synth emulation with eight finger note buffer. It also has Low/High/Last note priority as well as Volts/Octave or Volts/Hertz output scaling.

Dynamic sequence triggering moves beyond the traditional step sequencer Concurrent triggering of each bank of eight sequences, with multiple virtual sequence iterations. Multiple sequence trigger sources e.g. encoder knobs, external MIDI, Open Sound Control. Multiple modes of triggering. Sequence steps can overlap each other, able to create polyphony with one sequence.

Real time flexibility moves beyond a MIDI sequencer with Real time sequence track control: volume/mute, remote modulation, track patch change, meta linking, meta triggering, record. Sequence step modes: note/scale, detune, velocity, controller, step duration, note duration, slew rate.

Other features:
24,000 note memory. Analog and MIDI sync."

Squidfanny - "Steam-Punk" Omnichord Synthesizer (OM-27 April 2012)


YouTube Published on Apr 25, 2012 by squidfanny
squidfanny on eBay

"Antique Omnichord Synthesizer from 1981, well-modified......

Busted Power-Amp & Speaker has been removed and replaced with a Filter, LFO and a serious amount of circuit bending mods. Analog drum machine is now capable of new rhythms and new drum sounds. Glitch mods transform the huimble Omnichord into a respectable techno-esque analog synthesizer.

I very much dig the Omnichord, it's a highly understated artefact of the 80's and well worthy of all the time & effort spent on this mod.

Details -
This Omnichord was badly knackered when I got it, so firstly, added about 20 new little capacitors around the analog drums, to (mostly) remove the unwanted clicks & pops. Replaced the old electro. caps too.
Added a pre-amp to replace the busted power-amp, then a Filter & LFO made from a spare '4069' salvaged from another Omnichord.
6 x Switches above the rhythm buttons to combine the rhythm presets. Mute switches for the drums / chord / bass &Knobs for tweeking the drum decay. Metal Touch-points, LED Lights, chrome knobs & switches cover the machine."

Dazibao Color Based Software Synthesizer for Mac

DemoDazibao2.m4v

YouTube Published on Apr 24, 2012 by HNMusiqueTV

"Introduction to a new music synthesizer. This musical instrument helps to create the sounds using colors and graphs. You can create easily and fast complex sounds with instead of using a modular synthesizer."

"I have connected the modules of my synthesizers during twenty years. I'm bored with this kind of programmation. I wanted to create a music synthesizer as powerfull as a modular system, but with no jack and no slider.

It is easy to use Dazibao : first create some "sound colors" thanks to an analogy between colors and sound. The hue modifies the wavefrom, the saturation and brightness control the filters and the level of the noise generator. Even more, this color includes detune, vibrato and space effects. You just need then to associate these colors in a patch to create rich or complex evolutions of the sound."
