Livid CNTRL:R and Dave Smith Instruments Tempest - The Meeting

Published on Nov 2, 2012 by DaveSmithInstruments

"Check out this preview of Peter Nyboer (Livid) and Carson Day (DSI) in a "best of both worlds" throw-down. With an unholy union of gear from the Livid and Dave Smith shelves, Carson and Peter conjure up a mad mix of clips, synths, plug-ins, and step sequencers, in a seamless combination of analog and digital sounds.
Livid and Dave Smith Instruments at first glance seem like two opposites in the music tech world: Livid's controllers are geared toward trends of portability, flexibility, and all-digital, real-time production. Dave Smith's Tempest is gloriously rooted in traditions of analog audio and all-in one electronic instrumentation. However, both companies are simply fans of electronic music, and wanted to find a way to cross-pollinate these ideas. Keep your eye on your inbox, twitter feed, facebook page, or your tickertape for the upcoming tutorials and downloads that show how to bring these amazing pieces of gear together!

Powertran Transcendent 2000

via this auction

"Powertran Transcendent 2000 - rare British vintage mono synth. Designed by Tim Orr of EMS. This is powerful little mono synth, with a rather raw filter, akin to an MS20. Unit is in good condition, with the exception of the two problems listed below. I'm selling this item as spare or repairs because it is not 100% working, and I'm erring on the side of caution. I see no reason why, with a little TLC this unit wouldn't be perfectly serviceable. Cosmetically it is fine for a unit of its age. There's the odd scratch on the wood. These were self build units, and this one has been built well, as it has never suffered from any of the common problems the units do suffer from (eg. pots unable to move, woodwork wobbly). I've owned this since 1996, before that it had at least 2 owners afaik. It's been stored well, and only ever used in a smoke free environment.

The faults are:
(1) A fair number of keys are not fully working. Either they don't reliably trigger, or don't trigger at all. This is just a case of cleaning or replacing the contacts.
(2) The the unit can suffer from RF interference depending on its location. I'm not sure if that is a design flaw, or a problem with this particular unit as it has always done it. You just need to find the right place to put it!

Controls:
Portamento, Pitch bend (on a pot, not a lever)
1 Oscillator (Saw, Triangle, 2x Square waves)
Pitch Mod (from ADSR, S&H)
Noise, LFO speed
Filter: Cutoff, Resonance, LFO mod, AD Modulation
Filter Envelop: Attack, Decay
Envelope: ADSR
Filter input, CV/Gate input, Foot pedal. (NO MIDI)"

MAXI KORG UNIVOX K-3 SN 760093

"Vintage Univox Maxi-Korg K-3 synthesizer in working condition. Cosmetic condition is pretty solid considering its age. Some wear to the wood, but no major cosmetic damage. Some of the plastic switch tips are missing, but all of the actual toggle switches & sliders are present. I am not all that familiar with this particular synth, however, I spent an hour playing around with it. All keys work, the tone changes when you flip a switch or move a slider. I tried both the "U" and "L" outputs, and both are sending signal. I cannot say for certain that it is in 100% proper working condition, but it sure seems like everything is working just fine."

Heart-driven modular synth - first test

Published on Nov 2, 2012 by otoskope

Bugbrand Modular

"I hooked up my heart through an ECG monitor to my modular synthesizer. From the ECG monitor, built from a kit today, I get the sound of my heart, and a control voltage signal. I use these to modulate various oscillators and filters, and also to clock a sequencer.

This is just a first test, and it seems to work."
