"A Generative Modular Synthesizer Piece.
A lot of hard sync, soft sync, FM, AM and a little RM going on with twelve VCO's here. Set against a pure triangle wave melodic duet. All pitch data is automatic from LFO's, AR's and Noise/S&H within the modular.
Kind of like there are more things happening behind the scenes than what appear as shadows on the wall in front."

Extended Tetrazzi Jam 01 Echo

Published on May 25, 2013 NakagawaGakki·44 videos

"A little Tape Echo.
I sat down with the Tetrazzi again for about an hour this evening, starting to get more gestural control massaging the barres. The differential lever action of the barres really does add another level of playability to this instrument.
Still yet to secure down the central console as I think I will take it apart again and get right into doing the tunable VCO mod on it. I like the scroll button action but I think having more control over the VCOs is what I need in this setup.
Also the UP/DOWN Mod/Ton pots are very sensitive, they sometime change just from playing the instrument, so I think I will replace them with stiff slider pots.
I have misplaced the cable for my camera so audio was recorded using the camera mic.
Sadly you cannot pick up the deep subtle overtones of this patch.
Enjoyable anyway."

Custom Livid Waldorf MicroWave 1 & 2 Midi Controller

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

"Unfinished prototype Livid Elements Midi controller project. Excellent Condition Skiff 80 Bundle, 64 knob Midi Controller. One of a kind custom designed Waldorf Microwave 1 or 2 face panel templates. Needs to be programmed.

Software can be downloaded at Livid Instruments for free. Must have an understanding of Sysex midi language. I can't give support for this, please look at software first and make sure it's within your learning curve.

I never got around to programming this and no longer own a Waldorf MW 1 or 2. Parameters are same on either MW1 or MW2 but Sysex language may have differences, I don't know so you'll need to have your own midi implementation chart for whichever synth you wish to program this too. Doesn't have to be Waldorf, this can be programmed to any midi synths or other midi equipment, for any parameters you wish. Removable photo-card face templates (No adhesive was applied. these cards are being held on under knobs, doesn't affect knob turning). Templates have crudely cut holes, (not visible with knobs on), template fit and finish not perfect. Was experimenting with colors so some knobs have not so legible labels. USB powered, does not require power cord.

Low starting Bid, this bundle consists of (priced separately) Elements Skiff 80 Case (249 new) and four 16K Element modules (119 each new). So this is a great buy even if you don't happen to own a Waldorf. Customize this to your favorite Midi gear!!!"

Rebel Technology Logoi Clock Divider Counter Delay

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

via this auction
Perfect Circuit Audio (RSS)

"Logoi is a voltage controlled clock divider, counter, and delay.

Logoi subdivides and adds time, creating organic, evolving signatures. It brings movement and life to the trigger signal, from a subtle swing to bizarrely complex and intricate rhythms.

The functions of logoi are split with division on the left, and addition on the right. The right side operates either in counter mode, by adding clocks, or shuffle mode, by adding a time delay. the mode is set by the centre switch.

The module has CV inputs and trigger outputs for each side, and a combined trigger output (centre bottom jack) which gives the output of both operations; divide and add.

The trigger input (bottom left and right jacks) is shared between division and addition. There is also a reset input (centre top) and manual reset switch (push switch up).

There are three leds indicating the divided and added output to the left and right, and the combined output in the centre.

Divide

The divider toggles its output every n clocks, where n is the divisor. the divisor is set with a manual (top knob) and cv level control, in a range from 1 to 32

Count

With the switch in the down position, the additive side functions as clock counter. the counter will output a trigger signal every m clocks, where m is the addend. the range is from 1 to 32 clocks, with 16 in the centre position.

The combined output will divide and count. if i is the incoming clock, n the divisor, and m the addend, then it will output a a trigger signal every i/n + m clocks.

Note that when the addend is larger than the divisor, in other words, n < m, then the divider frequency is higher than the addition and the combined output will never trigger.

Shuffle

With the switch in the centre position, the right side adds a time delay to the input. the amount of delay, or shuffle, ranges from 0ms to around 1000ms.

In shuffle mode, the combined output passes all clocks through until each time the divisor triggers, when it adds a time delay. The result is that every n-th clock is delayed by m, where m is the amount of shuffle and n is the divisor.

As in count mode, if the divisor frequency is greater than the delay time, the combined output will not trigger. in shuffle mode, this is determined by the combination of input clock frequency and delay time."

Rebel Technology Stoicheia Dual Euclidean Sequencer

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

via this auction
Perfect Circuit Audio (RSS)

"Στοιχεῖα is a dual Euclidean Sequencer that algorithmically generates rhythmic sequences from an input trigger signal.

The name (Στοιχεῖα, Stoicheia, or Elements) comes from the title of Euclid’s book Elements in which the algorithm was first described.

Operation

Each sequence is controlled by a column of three knobs and a switch. The input parameters to the algorithm are sequence length and fills.

The length of the sequence, measured in clocks or beats, is controlled by the second knob from the top. The range goes from 1 (fully counter clockwise) to 16 (fully clockwise), with 8 in the centre position.

The number of fills, or on-beats, is set by the third knob. In fully counter-clockwise position, this is set to 1. Centre position will set every other beat ‘on’, or 50% . Fully clockwise sets every beat ‘on’, in other words: the number of fills are equal to the sequence length.

The top knob adjusts which beat the sequence starts on – and hence resets to. In its centre position, the sequence will start on its first step. The start position can be changed by turning the top knob left or right: this will have the effect of rotating the sequence left or right, respectively.

Trigger Mode

With its switch in the centre position, the sequence is turned off. To turn it on (Trigger Mode), push the switch up. In trigger mode, the sequence will switch its output high when receiving a clock signal rising edge (low to high transition), provided the next beat in the sequence is ‘on’. When the clock signal falling edge is received (high to low transition), the output will be switched back to low (0v). This means that the output trigger signals have the same pulse width as the input clock. So if the clocks are generated with very short pulses, the output triggers will be equally short. As a consequence, a pulse width modulation on the input clock signal will be passed on through the sequencer.

Alternating Mode

Pushing the switch down from its centre (off) position puts the sequence into Alternating Mode. In alternating mode, the output goes high on the first ‘on’ beat, and remains high until the next ‘on’ beat. In other words, the output toggles on every ‘on’ beat in the sequence. The up and down transitions occur on the rising edge of the input clock.

Reset

The centre jack can be used to connect a reset trigger. When a reset is received, both sequences restart at their first position. This takes into consideration the rotation setting: If sequence A and B have different rotations, they will remain offset in respect to each other. Reset can also be manually triggered by pushing the centre switch momentarily upwards.

Chained Mode

The centre switch can be pushed down, which enables Chained mode. When chained, the two sequences are repeated one after the other, instead of concurrently. This is very useful to build up more complex patterns. In chained mode, the output of the combined sequence is available at both output jacks. On startup, the first sequence will play through to its determined length. It will then stop, and the second sequence will play through to the end, at which point the first one starts up again. For example, setting the first sequence to length 12, and the second to length 4, will result in a combined 16-step sequence. A reset signal in Chained mode brings the combined sequence to the start of the first pattern. Rotation works as in regular mode. Chained mode can also be used to create sequences longer than 16 steps.

Hacking

Στοιχεῖα is driven by a micro controller which interfaces modular signal levels through discrete transistor networks. It functions by responding to incoming trigger signals using the MCU’s built in hardware interrupts. The step sequences are pre-calculated in the main processor loop and updated when the knobs are turned, which means that the interrupts can be processed very efficiently. This leads to a very low on/off latency.

Efficient design, solid code and good use of hardware interrupts means that Stoicheia can process clock signals well into audible frequencies.

The circuit board has a 6-pin header which brings out the serial and reset pins of the MCU. It mates with an FTDI USB TTL Serial Cable. It is compatible with 3.3v and 5v TTL levels.

The MCU is an AVR ATMega168. It is loaded with the Arduino Bootloader, and can be programmed as an Arduino Diecimila. The firmware is dependent only on avr-gcc, and on Arduino/Wiring for the optional serial debug interface."

Rebel Technology Klasmata Sequencer EURO Module

Perfect Circuit Audio (RSS)

"The Klasmata module by Rebel Technology contains one half of the Stoichea module but with additional voltage control of two parameters and 32 steps sequence length. Just like the Stoicheia it creates rhythmical, very musical structures from an incoming clock. Perfectly suited to trigger drum voices or just for creative sequencing.

The upper control sets the start point of a sequence and also the reset point. In mid position the sequence starts at the "one". Turning the pot makes the sequence shift forwards or backwards. The control below sets the sequence length, from 1 to 16 steps. The middle control determines the number of fills i.e. how many notes from a sequence will be played.

The sequence length and the number of fills can be modulated by control voltages, the according attenautors are the two bottom controls.

The switch is used for manual stopping and resetting the sequence, on the other hand it influences the behavoiur of the sequence:

In middle position the sequence is off.
In upper position the trigger mode is activated. The sequence will switch its output high when receiving a clock signal rising edge (low to high transition), provided the next beat in the sequence is ‘on’. When the clock signal falling edge is received (high to low transition), the output will be switched back to low (0v). This means that the output trigger signals have the same pulse width as the input clock.
In bottom position you activate the alternating mode. The output goes high on the first ‘on’ beat, and remains high until the next ‘on’ beat. In other words, the output toggles on every ‘on’ beat in the sequence. The up and down transitions occur on the rising edge of the input clock.
The top jack "|<-" is used to reset the sequence to step one. Below you´ll find the socket "γ" , that´s the gate sequence output. The sockets 3 and 4 are the two CV inputs (see above) and the socket at the very bottom is the clock input.
The module is protected against reverse polarity. It needs +5V to operate"
