"The shruti box is an Indian drone instrument. It is a small box whose only function is to provide the drone; there are two basic forms, manual and electronic. The manual form is a small free reed organ. It has no keys, can play no melody, and is pumped by some small bellows with the hand.
In the last few decades, the electronic versions have become very popular. The electronic ones have evolved considerably over the last few decades. Original versions were simple analogue devices that tended to drift and were unreliable, but advances in digital technology have brought them to a high level of reliability. Such versions are commonly referred to as "electronic tamburas".
Although the surpeti is common throughout India, their usage differs considerably. Hindustani musicians will regularly use them in practice but usually would not consider bringing them onto the stage. Carnatic musicians very regularly use them in stage performances.
The syth reproduces the sound of a conventional tanpura but, does it all through electronics. There are many different tuning capabilities ie; pitch, tone, key, tempo etc..."

KORG MS-20mini EG2 behavior
Published on Mar 23, 2013 AudioCentralMagazine·122 videos
"The KORG MS-20 EG2 acts in a way fairly different from standard: while is a "normal" ADSR on VCA, his Sustain pot works as an inverted offset for the EG output hardwired to VCFs. So, when you turn Sustain clockwise, you'll lower full voltage for EG output (the Cutoff will goes dooooown), when you turn Sustain counterclockwise, you'll raise full voltage for EG output (the Cutoff will goes up). Due to the dual EG 2 destination (VCA and VCF) you'll not be able to hear the effect with enough clarity; so, is mandatory to connect EG1 on VCA gain and leave EG2 on filter control. Weird, but effective."

"KORG MS-20mini is a nasty, pretty, wicked analog monophonic synthesizer with all the strength of the vintage model, but with an higher output level (and a little more hiss in background) and a smaller keyboard."
KORG MS-20mini The Self Triggering Patch
Published on Mar 24, 2013
"The KORG MS-20mini can be set in a self triggering condition by patching the square/pulse MG out to ESP section and, from ESP, back to EG 1&2 Trig In. On this way, you can fiddle with front panel controls while the machine is repeating EGs on and on. For pure fun, a little bit of pink noise is processed with S&H for FMing both VCOs."

KORG MS-20mini vs. MS-20 vintage
Published on Mar 23, 2013 AudioCentralMagazine·121 videos
"A vintage MS-20 mkI with original IC35 filter against the brand new MS-20mini. Both synths sounds the same, with a minimum tweaking of controls. Same level on mixer, no eq, same gain settings. Brand new MS-20mini has more output level (and more hiss) than the vintage one. Same sounds, same capabilities, same charme."

MMF Monome Beap 23032013
Published on Mar 23, 2013 stretta·72 videos
"I spent this week 'modularizing' monome apps to work with Beap. Friday night, my new Make Noise MMF arrives. I'm a bit of a low pass gate snob, so I was pretty excited to plug it in. In this video, the MMG is pretty much the only thing you're hearing. I'm modulating the MMG with four sources, three of them sequences driven by the monome. There are five sequencers in all, and there is a monome 64 switching among them. The other two sequencers are modulating pitch and FM index of a two operator FM pair, using the FM osc in Beap. This is sent directly to the MMG.
At one point I throw in a post-MMG VCA because I had that patched in to experiment with ring clamping, but I don't use it for long.
Beap can be downloaded at my github.

"This is an analogue drum machine from the mid 1970s. It uses inductor coils or "tuned tanks" to produce its sound in a similar way to the Roland TR-77 and the Korg Mini-Pops. The modulator section is key to this unit and sets it apart from other drum machines of the era. You can connect an instrument to the rear modulator input (say, a synthesizer), and then that input gets triggered by the Rhythm King' beat. Must be heard to believe. YouTube this, and you'll hear that feature. Very cool.
It's a rare piece, especially in this condition. All sounds work, all rhythms work and all sliders are nice and crackle-free. There are 10 sounds and 16 rhythms plus an intro/break feature. The rhythms can be combined as is typical with these older 'diode matrix' rhythm units. The two cymbal sounds have various decay amounts depending on the rhythms chosen ranging from a short maracas type sound to open high-hat. This is a heavy unit in tolex."

6 Voice polyphony , split keyboard and dual layering of voices but that reduces it to 3 voice or 3 per split. Amazing bass sounds , pads , FX and Keys etc."
