"multimode filters its own distinctive sound structure. Moreover, the MICRO MINIATURE with its many patch points well equipped to be controlled by the flexible step sequencer URZWERG to be and interact with the multifunctional MEGAZWERG.
In single mode, the MICRO MINIATURE produce with its dual-oscillator and the dual multimode filters not only typical analog bass and lead sounds, but also for a monophonic synthesizer sounds unusual. With fast connections created a patch can be transformed and signal modulations in order to reproduce the sound potential of the MICRO DWARF.
In conjunction with the other synths of DWARF-family or a modular system to grow the capabilities of the MICRO MINIATURE further.
Here is an overview of the areas of the MICRO DWARF:
The two oscillators include the four waveforms triangle, sawtooth, square and spike. VCO 2 instead of the spike has a noise generator. VCO 2 can be tuned an octave plus minus compared to VCO 1. A patch compound, the oscillators sync with each other. In addition, the signal can be picked separately from VCO 2 are used to filter modulation. A ring modulation is combined with the MEGAZWERG possible from which the RM signal can be fed back into the MICRO DWARF.
The two 12-dB variable-state, multi-mode filters have the mode low pass, band pass and high pass and notch (band-stop). The filters are serially connected, resulting in the same mode, a larger edge steepness. This value is variable, as the two cutoff frequencies can be moved via the Space controls against each other. With the combination of low-and high-pass results in a bandpass filter with variable width and separately controllable resonance. A patch connection, a parallel connection of the filter is possible. Then two offset bandpasses, a notch filter with a variable width, or a low-or high-pass filter can be realized with projecting bandpass. The response can be controlled for both filters to self-oscillation. The cutoff frequencies are controlled or jointly controlled by envelope. You can also move through the Space controls against each other. The modulation via LFO or the Mod input either affects filter 1 or both filters together.
Key Follow for a pitch-dependent opening of the filter can be produced by a simple patch connecting the key to CV Contour Mod or input.
Since both filters have separate inputs and outputs, the MICRO MINIATURE be used as a versatile dual-filter box for external audio signals.
The ADSR envelope is internally connected to the cutoff frequency of the filter. If a second ADSR envelope required, it can be from MEGAZWERG or a modular system patched to the MICRO DWARF.
The LFOs have four waveforms and a one-shot function. The selected waveform goes through after the gate pulse of the incoming note only one cycle and thus can be considered a simple envelope, about the pitch or the VCA can be used. LFO 2 has also a sample & hold mode.
There are connections to the internal modulation LFO to cutoff frequency, and the pitch of the oscillators or pulse width of the second VCO The speed of LFO 2 can be modulated over a CV input. Even so, the frequency of LFO 2 increase by a factor of 30 and reduce, so hereby extremely fast or slow modulations are possible.
The control signals of the envelope and the LFO can also be output and therefore can control functions of other analog synthesizers and modular systems.
The signaling pathway VCOs-VCF1/VCF2-VCA and conventional modulations are pre-wired internally. The MICRO MINIATURE thus can be played directly. All other connections are made using the patch sockets and can be operated on MICRO MINIATURE itself and from external devices are controlled or used.
About the MIDI input can be driven to the MICRO DWARF with a Keyboard or a DAW. In addition to the note data, data from the pitch wheel (+ / - 2 semitones) processes and the modulation wheel to control the cutoff frequency.
The MICRO DWARF has the dimensions 190 x 150 mm x 50.
Power is supplied via the included AC adapter."

Foundations of Synthesis Series by The Bob Moog Foundation
Published on Feb 11, 2013 moogfoundation·82 videos
Featuring Marc Doty, aka AutomaticGainsay
http://moogfoundation.org
Playlist:
1. The Synthesis of Synthesis - "This is the introductory video for the Bob Moog Foundation/macProVideo series "The Foundation of Synthesis." In it, Marc Doty sets the stage for the intent of these videos, which is an integrative instruction which not only describes synthesizer function and operation, but also gives a historical foundation for the functionalities and their implementation."
2. The Synthesis of Synthesis- Sound - "No instruction in synthesis would be complete without some explanation of the physics of sound! This video is one of several videos which outline the physical principles upon which synthesis is based."
3. The Synthesis of Synthesis- The Hammond Novachord - "The progression of devices which led to the modern synthesizer is diverse and interesting. The Foundation of Synthesis covers a number of them which portray a progressive development. One of these synthesizer precursors was the Hammond Novachord, a tube- based keyboard device whose groundbreaking technology is still present in some synthesizers today. More than most, this proto-synthesizer resembled what we came to think of as the modern synthesizer."
4. Foundation of Synthesis- Oscillator Introduction - "The Foundation of Synthesis dives into synthesizer technology with the Oscillator— the origin of sound in synthesis! Marc leads us through the history of this device from its beginning— as a lightbulb!— to its implementation in electronic musical instruments."
5. Oscillators- Pulse Width Modulation - "Pulse Width Modulation is a pleasing aural effect generated by the voltage-controlled adjustment of the width of a square wave. In this Foundation of Synthesis video, Marc demonstrates this function on several classic synthesizers. The video includes an oscilloscope, which shows you exactly what is happening when the width of the square wave output of the oscillator is changed!"
6. Filter- Introduction - "In this part of the 3rd Tutorial of the Foundation of Synthesis, Marc outlines the history of the filter from its origin in the telephone to its application in electronic devices in order to give a firm understanding of how the filter came to be an important part of modern synthesizers. The filter is a function which removes harmonics from a sound. Since harmonics define the timbre of the sound, this is a fast and easy way to create new timbres."
7. Filter- Cutoff Control - "Adjustment of the cutoff point of the filter is such a popular process that it has spawned whole genres of music. In this video, Marc shows the sound and functionality of this particular aspect of the most popular module in the modern synthesizer."
8. Filter-Voyager Serial Resonance - "The Moog Voyager design of Bob Moog includes some unique and useful functionalities. In this video, Marc explores the dual-filter nature of the Moog Voyager by demonstrating some unique ways to apply its filter arrangement."
9. Control Voltage Explanation Part 1 - "For the average musician, control voltage is an abstract concept. Of all the aspects of synthesis, it seems to be the most confusing. In this video, Marc gives a straight-forward and easy-to-understand description of the functionality using concrete examples. With a firm grasp of control voltage, synthesis becomes considerably easier and fun!"
10. Control Voltage Explanation Part 2 - "Here is part two of a video where Marc gives a straight-forward and easy-to-understand description of the process and application of control voltage. With a firm grasp of control voltage, synthesis becomes considerably easier and fun!"
11. The Amp Introduction - "In this video, Marc gives us a basic history of what can be the least-exciting module in the modern synthesizer, but then goes on to show what can be done when this module includes a fair amount of functionality. The Amp is the last step in the synthesis process, and can give you a variety of power over the timbre you create!"
12. The ARP Envelope Follower - "The Envelope Follower is one of the most fun control functions to exist. It takes the amplitude of a given signal and converts it to a voltage. As the amplitude rises, the control voltage rises. This can be used to control any function in the synthesizer which can be controlled via control voltage... which, in an analog synth, is most of them! In this video, Marc gives a demonstration of this under-implemented synthesizer function using the ARP 2600."
13. Designing Timbres- Introduction - "This video introduces the "Designing Timbres" tutorial by explaining exactly what is going to happen within it. It features some of the music and synthesizers used in the rest of the tutorial."
14. Designing Timbres: Major/Minor Chord - "'It doesn't play chords!' -This is the complaint most heard in regard to monophonic analog synthesizers... but wait... if you have three oscillators and some awesome functionality like the Moog Voyager, there is an answer to this complaint. In this video, Marc shows you how you can generate a sort of controllable polyphony using the monophonic Moog Voyager!"
15. Designing Timbres: Duality - "In this video, Marc demonstrates the the functional benefit of a synthesizer like the Yamaha CS-15, which is essentially two different synthesizers stacked together. By altering settings in each division, interesting timbres can be created."

Korg Monotribe Modded w/ MIDI, Drum Decay, and Separate Outputs
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Unit has MIDi I/O on mounted Dinsync jacks, (see pics), a total of (3) additional outputs for the Drums (Kick, Snare, HH) so all sounds can be recorded on individual tracks, nice! Also the Drums have the Tone and Decay mods, which is what makes it sound similar to an 808. Two pots control the decay of the Bass and Snare, and two switches for HH and Snare Noise/Decay. PAste this phrase into youtube: MONOMOD - Korg Monotribe Mod / Hack [posted here] to watch a video demonstarting the mods/sounds. (this is not my video, but the mod/sound is the same). Below I have posted some info on the MIdi Mod taken from Gameboy Genius' Blog [link].
Details
Sync: It will both send and accept MIDI sync, start and stop messages, meaning the sequencer can be reset over MIDI, which can’t be done remotely if you’re only using the regular sync input.
Notes: It will send and receive notes within the limits of the sequencer. It’s using channel 1 for notes. Notes outside these limits will be ignored. It doesnot react to varying velocities. It does however react to pitch bend MIDI messages and is able to record and play back pitch bend in flux mode! I don’t have MIDI out hooked up at the moment, so I can’t confirm this right now, but I’m assuming it also transmits MIDI pitch bend messages when it plays notes in flux mode.
Drums: It’s using the standard General MIDI specification for drums, which means the following notes on MIDI channel 10.
Name Note number Note name GM drum name
BD 36 C1 Bass drum 1
SN 40 E1 Snare dum 2/Electric snare
HH 42 F#1 Closed hi-hat
Control change messages (CC): It can send and receive CC for all the knobs and switches marked green above. The parameters are mapped as follows:
Name CC number Values GM parameter name
LFO rate 16 – General purpose controller 1
LFO int. 1 – Modulation wheel
EG shape 80 32=decay
64=sustain
96=attack General purpose controller 5

High Times / Playing with TenoriOn
Published on Feb 12, 2013
"For those of you who don't really understand what happens here and where which sound comes from:
The music is made with 2 instruments, the sequencer TenoriOn and the synthesizer workstation Korg M50.
TenoriOn is the instrument which i handle in the video. The clip shows the whole session, but you hear the sequenced sound first at around minute 1 when it's slowly
fading in.
The other sounds which you hear from the beginning are additional tracks which i've played with the Korg M50 synthesizer workstation. Also the TenoriOn was routet
before to the Korg M50 and is only the first track of this song.
Btw, the holiday video which appears in the small window is a flight from Denpasar (Bali) to Labuan Bajo (Flores).

Stone Mountain Park Carillon-Mabel Sansing Sharp Carillonneur
Uploaded on Apr 4, 2010 stevethrasher·156 videos
"For over three decades carillonneur, Mabel Sansing Sharp has treated audiences to spectacular performances of the songs "Clare Delune", "Chattanooga Choo Choo", "Amazing Grace" and "Georgia" along with many other songs and hymns. A very special thank you to Ms. Mabel for all of the wonderful memories!
For those of you not familiar with the Stone Mountain Carillon, the instrument was built by Schulmerich Carillons in Sellersville, PA for the Coco-Cola Pavilion 1964 World's Fair in New York.
The 732-bell carillon is located lakeside in the heart of beautiful Stone Mountain Park, Georgia. This amazing bell tower structure provides daily concerts to those young and old for reflection and inspiration. The carillon is the heaviest of all musical instruments and probably one of the most interesting by design."

"For your consideration is an extremely rare Schumerich Americana carillon, one of Schulmerich's flagship carillons from the 1960s. Most of these carillons have been destroyed or salvaged for their amplifier parts, and finding one of these very nice models is extremely unusual. Buying a new digital Schulmerich carillon costs over $35,000 today, but these analog carillons have an even more beautiful, breathtaking sound. This particular carillon came from Weber State University in Utah, and cost over $25,000 in the early 1960s, which equates to over $180,000 in today's dollars.
We have fully restored this carillon's wiring, adding connectors (DB25, XLR, RCA etc.), so that the carillon can easily be moved around (all Schulmerich Americana carillons were originally hard-wired on-site when installed, so when removed, over 400 individual cables had to be cut, making restoration extremely costly and time-consuming). This required soldering over 800 individual cables!!!!! The restoration work on this carillon has cost us over $4000 in technicians' time.
Of course, the carillon comes with all of its original schematics and instructions.
This particular carillon has the following bells/voices, each of which has its own manual on the keyboard console:
61-note Flemish bells/voices (contained in the 5 chime boxes)
61-note Harp bells/voices (contained in the chime tower)
61-note Celesta bells/voices (contained in the chime tower)
This carillon has three 19" rack towers: (1) a power amplifier tower, (2) a timer/clock tower and (3) a chime tower
The keyboard console has a speaker in it, but the system also has an original Schulmerich satellite/external speaker. It also still has the original a paper roll player and a box of over one dozen original rolls.
Here is a video that we made when testing out this exact carillon's Harp and Celesta voices (because the volume was too loud for the camera microphone, it sounds distorted in the recording, but it is not in reality) [1st video above]
Here is a video that shows what one of these flagship Schulmerich carillons sounds like when restored (note that the carillon in the video is a different carillon, a Schulmerich Mark V, but the voices played in the video are all present and the same as those on this carillon) [2nd video above]
This instrument is perfect for the musician who loves rare bell/tine keyboards, as you can't get this sound anywhere else without paying tens of thousands of dollars for a new digital Schulmerich carillon. It even comes with Fender Rhodes sustain pedal and a Maas-Rowe Vibrachord carillon harp if you Buy-It-Now! The Rhodes pedal and Maas-Rowe Vibrachord harp, both of which are not shown in the pictures, came with a lot of equipment that we bought along with this carillon several years ago..."

Stone Mountain Park Carillon-Mabel Sansing Sharp Carillonneur
Uploaded on Apr 4, 2010 stevethrasher·156 videos
"For over three decades carillonneur, Mabel Sansing Sharp has treated audiences to spectacular performances of the songs "Clare Delune", "Chattanooga Choo Choo", "Amazing Grace" and "Georgia" along with many other songs and hymns. A very special thank you to Ms. Mabel for all of the wonderful memories!
For those of you not familiar with the Stone Mountain Carillon, the instrument was built by Schulmerich Carillons in Sellersville, PA for the Coco-Cola Pavilion 1964 World's Fair in New York.
The 732-bell carillon is located lakeside in the heart of beautiful Stone Mountain Park, Georgia. This amazing bell tower structure provides daily concerts to those young and old for reflection and inspiration. The carillon is the heaviest of all musical instruments and probably one of the most interesting by design."

"Here's an example of using Logic instruments with the Snyderphonics Manta.
http://www.snyderphonics.com/" Additional video below.
via this auction
"Fancy handmade in the US midi controller. The Manta is similar to a Buchla/Serge touchplate but with USB! Beautiful wood panels and backing with a metal touchplate makes for a very expressive instrument/controller with a very quality feel. Mine is version 2 with bi-colour leds.
The Manta is designed to be incredibly flexible depending on how you wish to use it. It makes a fantastic complement to a MAX/MSP, PureData or modular setup but can be used with any DAW such as Live or Logic. I've used it as velocity-sensitive 48 note keyboard, which I found useful for breaking old keyboard habits. You can assign the little hexagons to pretty much any midi parameter though. It can be a sequencer, X/Y pad, keyboard, fader. A lot of potential in a small package.
It has a USB connection so you have to interface with the computer for now, though Snyderphonics are apparently developing a little breakout box with midi and CV for analogue and other external gear."

"Dual Multimode Filter and Crossfader in 16HP
The original circuit was designed by analog guru David G. Dixon after carefully studying and analyzing the classic Korg ms-20 filter. His work resulted in a completely original circuit based around ssm2164 VCA chips. This design is capable of almost identical results but is far more versatile. This is not a clone, it is an entirely new and modern circuit with many enhancements.
Features:
Two independent filters, each with lp, hp and notch modes.
Unique resonant (q) drive control
Switch links the two filters allowing both parallel and serial routing via normals to input b (which can be broken by inserting a cable at input b).
Oscillates very easily and can be used as a dual sine vco. using the resonant controls this sine shape can be colored.
Dual 1v/oct inputs
Built in full featured cross fader allows voltage controlled crossfading between the two filters. The xfade has a switch to select either unipolar (e.g. envelopes) or bipolar (e.g. lfo) control of the xfade position. There is also a switch to select direction. With nothing plugged into the xfade jack the xfade knob controls the fade position. When an external CV is patched in the same knob acts as an attenuator for the control signal.
Jumpers on the back to select “modern” or “vintage” resonant modes (two different feedback paths for the resonance that use different diodes)
Expansion jacks for adding additional filter inputs and VC control of resonance
The Corgasmatron’s sound can range from ultra clean and precise, to extremely ballsy and dirty. The resonance is incredibly musical and is prime for all sorts of experimenting and sound design. The normalling, routing and cv options have been carefully selected to allow for a lot of control over the modules functionality and capabilities.
In addition to traditional filter and vco applications, the Corgasmatron can also be used to create formant sounds, work in stereo (use the linked fm2 pots and switch the routing to parallel), fm percussion and so much more."

Published on Feb 12, 2013 ChrisLody·50 videos
"I've been messing about with a new design of noise maker i call the Step Sister.
It is a step sequencer with a built in analog saw wave VCO, a square wave LFO which is synced to the sequencer speed, linked through a basic envelope to a resonant lowpass filter. This is just a test version and is yet unfinished. The finished version will (hopefully) have attack and decay controls for the filter envelope (this version just has 1), a selectable number of steps in the sequence from 1 to 10 and wave shaping to turn the saw wave into a pulse wave of some description. It also won't need 2 batteries as shown here. There are also a few knobs on the board that aren't connected so it a bit simpler than it looks. Honest.
It should eventually be available to buy from my Etsy and Folksy shop and if its not nightmarishly complicated to build, a kit version too.

Dave Smith Awarded Grammy for Technical Achievement Press Release
And the official press release (video link below):
"Dave Smith Awarded Grammy for Technical Achievement
Instrument Designer Recognized for Role in Creation of MIDI
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.—February 11, 2013—Musical instrument designer Dave Smith was honored with a Grammy® award this past Saturday for his work developing the Musical Instrument Digital Interface or MIDI, as it is more commonly known. The ceremony, held at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles, also celebrated the work of Glenn Gould, Carole King, and the Temptations, among others. Smith shares the award with Ikutaro Kakehashi, founder of Roland Corporation, the Japanese musical instrument manufacturer.
In 1982, Smith and Kakehashi formed a technical alliance to develop a means by which musical instruments and then-new personal computers could communicate with each other. They developed an inexpensive hardware interface and a simple protocol so that the technology could easily be integrated into new products. MIDI made its public debut at a trade show in January 1983 when instruments from Sequential Circuits--Smith’s company at the time--and Roland were connected for the first time and used to control each other.
MIDI was adopted by all major manufacturers of electronic instruments and proved especially valuable to performing musicians. It also kickstarted the home studio revolution by enabling musicians and composers to make multitrack recordings at home at a time when multitrack audio recorders were too costly for most artists.
One of the more remarkable things about MIDI is that the interface and protocol are virtually unchanged thirty years later and that--with its widespread inclusion in musical instruments, computers, and cell phones--it is more commonly used today than ever before. 'I can connect one of my latest instruments with a Commodore 64 or one of the instruments from the ‘80s with an iPad and it just works,' said Smith. 'How many other computer protocols can you say that about?'
Smith has been designing instruments for thirty-five years and they have been played by a diverse range of musicians, from Pink Floyd to Herbie Hancock, from Alicia Keys to Philip Glass, and from Oscar Peterson to Trent Reznor. Smith continues to design synthesizers and drum machines for his current company, Dave Smith Instruments. Founded in 2002, the company is headquartered in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood. The instruments are also manufactured in San Francisco and sold worldwide.

"I have a prototype of the new Division 6 eurorack version of George Mattson's SQ816 sequencer. It is very cool and feature rich! In this video I was simply just taking the MIDI out into my Korg MS2000R. Nothing fancy, just getting used to things for now."

"More of the same as last time, me messing around with the a prototype of the new Division 6 eurorack version of George Mattson's SQ816 sequencer. This time I'm using it to run part of my big 5U modular. Nothing fancy, just getting used to things for now."

"Once again, me messing around with the a prototype of the new Division 6 eurorack version of George Mattson's SQ816 sequencer. This one is quick, a single patch I liked that I wanted to share."
Elektron Analog 4- Sequencing Complex Patterns
Published on Feb 11, 2013 iVardensphere·41 videos
"Best heard on good speakers or headphones!
In this video I'm digging deep with the sequencer. Most of the work is being done by two of the voices. Once synth is the kick drum. One other is the bassline. The rest of everything going on is the two remaining voices. The Analog 4 is capable of inserting different patches into single triggers on the sequencer but that is not what I'm doing here. The whole intro section is just modulation and sequencing of the synth parameters.
This machine is deep and is sounds stunning."
