New Wiard 311C Dual JAG Controller
"The 311C Dual JAG Controller is an updated version of the 311B "New Controller". A long time in the making, the 311C is packed with new features and improvements, providing the equivalent functionality of eight distinct modules in one streamlined unit (JAG (x2), Joystick (x2), Multimode Gate (x2), Quadrature LFO (x2)).
Dominating the 2U panel are two JAGs (Grant Richter's Joystick Axis Generator). These devices take two incoming X/Y voltage components and map them into various combinations, providing 10 different outputs. The outputs are represented by LED indicators. "Dome" represents proximity to the centre. "Edge" represents proximity to any edge. The JAGs can be controlled with the included joysticks (which are pre-patched to the JAG inputs), producing a movement on the JAG which follows the position of the joystick, and this is probably the easiest way to visualise and understand how the JAGs work with CVs.
The two joysticks can be used in either bipolar (±5V) or unipolar(0-10V) modes (polarity of joystick outputs will change to follow the JAG input polarity switch). Joystick voltage outputs are provided on the panel and can be used either in combination with or separate from the JAGs.
In the top corners, there are frequency controls for the two on-board LFOs. These output a sine and cosine waveform, with an extremely wide frequency range and provision for voltage control via a header on the underside of the main board. Sine and cosine can be patched to the inputs of a JAG for circular modulation at LFO rate (swap the inputs to reverse direction). Patching two different frequency LFOs to the inputs of a JAG will produce Lissajous shaped modulation! The LFO Cosine is pre-patched to the Gate input on each side, but this can be overridden by patching into the Gate input jack.
The multi-mode gate circuits will convert any input voltage to a 10V gate signal. Depending on the position of the mode switch, the gate will behave differently. In the centre switch position, the gate button is momentary, and will turn the gate on whenever it is pressed and keep it open as long as it is held down. The top position provides a repeat function when the button is held, gating at the frequency of the LFO (or external gate signal). The bottom position is a latching gate on or off function.
Removing a jumper link on the main board will switch to a second mode set (independent jumper for each side). In the second mode set, the centre position remains the same (momentary). The top "Repeat" position now allows the LFO or gate input signal to pass through the gate circuit and then to the gate output, regardless of button position, and if the button is pressed, the gate is held on. The bottom position becomes a latching gated repeat mode (press to turn on gated repeat, press again to turn off). For maximum flexibility, each side of the controller can use a different mode set, providing easy front-panel access to all five possible gate modes.
(DIY tip: An external switch could also be wired to the jumper pins for easy access.)
Features:
• Two JAGs
• Two Joysticks
• Two Sine/Cosine LFOs
• Two Multi-mode Gates
• Bantam (TT) or 3.5mm jacks"

"A dual oscillator built around two triangle core, wide range, periodic waveform generators. as a multipurpose signal generator, it can provide the basis of a wide range of complex sounds ideal for tuned percussion/noise, abrasive amplitude, frequency and timbral modulation. tones, drones, textures, and drums to atonal, nintendo zipper/fart noises. this module was made for fm madness.
The genxpander is an expander module for the generator. it adds standard waveform outputs, internal fm waveform selection, and extensive waveshaping capabilities to the generator module.
the genxpander has 4 separate sections.
Waveshaper:
the waveshaper circuit uses a triangle wave and square wave from one or both of the oscillators on the generator module to create a saw wave and a pulse wave. attenuated cv control of the pulsewidth and saw shape is available. a switch for the triangle wave and a swith for the square wave determine which oscillator the seed waveforms are taken from.
selecting the same oscillator for both triangle and square will provide a clean saw wave. selecting different oscillators for the triangle and square waves will provide a very interesting modulating, saw-triangle-square type waveform.
FM wave switch:
determines the waveform used by oscillator 1 (gen1) to internally modulate oscillator 2 (gen2). the generator ships with the internal fm set to the variable waveform. the switch allows the frequency modulation waveform to be changed to a triangle wave.
Standard waveform outputs:
Separate triangle and square wave outputs for both oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2)
Bad outputs:
An odd/even harmonic detector, frequency mixer & waveshaper. it inverts the polarity of the triangle waves based on the frquency relationship between oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2).
Oe output:
Regular polarity oscillator 1 triangle if the differance between oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2) is an even number. inverted polarity oscillator 1 triangle if the differance between oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2) is an odd number.
Dif output:
Polarity of oscillator 2 triangle is changed at a frequency equal to the differance between oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2). if oscillator 1 (gen1) and oscillator 2 (gen2) are the exact same frequency then the dif output is the same as the oscillator 2 triangle output.
size: 8hp
depth: 35mm
attaching the genxpander to the generator:
the genxpander attaches to the generator using 2 ribbon cables attached to header 1 and header 2.
header 1 connects the power and waveforms of the generator to the waveshapers and outputs of the genxpaner. the ribbon cable attaches stripe down to header 1 on both the genarator and genxpander.
header 2 controls the selection of the waveform used for the internal fm of the generator. it replaces the jumper on the back of the generator with a switch. header 2 is a single row 4 pin header on both the generator and genxpander. the outside row of the ribbon cable attaches stripe down on the generator and stripe up on the genxpander. attaching this ribbon cable incorrectly will not cause damage to either module.
the genxpander receives power from the generator through header 1. the genxpander does not attach directly to a power supply."

Sequetron 13.07 with modular synth, drum machine & supernova
Published on Sep 30, 2013 Phil Tipping·54 videos
"Another quick live lash-up with Sequetron driving a dotcom synth plus drum machine & supernova to provide more 'voices'.
The 1st section shows the Sequetron ports, macros & drum style setup.
The 2nd section overlays live screenshots showing the seqs being recorded & looped in real-time, and the dynamic template/virtual keyboard along the bottom shows how the keys change functionality as notes are pressed on the music keyboard. No mice or qwerty keyboards are used.
View at higher resolution if screenshot writing is fuzzy.
Port 1 goes via Kenton Pro Solo to VCO3, Q107 filter, EG & VCA.
Port 2 goes via Q104 module to VCOs 1 & 2, Q150 filter, EG & VCA.
Port 3 goes to Novation Supernova synth.
Port 4 goes to DRM1 drum machine.
The 3 macros are triggered by 3 of the 5 Korg EC5 foot pedals to switch live output between ports 1, 2 & 3 (could also use normal port commands from the MIDI keyboard, but macros are a new feature!).
The macro definitions are:-
cc12, abs=127, [live] cmd, [command] live, [command] port-n, [digits] 1
cc13, abs=127, [live] cmd, [command] live, [command] port-n, [digits] 2
cc64, abs=127, [live] cmd, [command] live, [command] port-n, [digits] 3
The 'record attrib source' config option is set so that live's current port value is automatically transferred to the recorded sequence(s) when the recording starts.
The drum style used for the metronome is taken from the Drum Machine Patterns books by Rene-Pierre Bardet.

SSF Mixmode Saturator VS BD808
Published on Sep 30, 2013 SteadyStateFate·22 videos
"MIXMODE saturating a dynamic signal source.
More info about MIXMODE at www.steadystatefate.com
The BD808 is fed into MIXMODE's mixer saturation circuitry. The effects of the saturator on a bass kick is demonstrated at various settings.
The bass kick is then also hard clipped by the SSF GND CTRL - audio and CV utility.
While the signal peaks are hard clipped, the tail of the kick remains in MIXMODE's saturation region and increases so, as the volume level is increased. This is in effect a multistage distortion capable of a large palette of harmonic overtones.
On it's own, MIXMODEs saturation circuit is unique. As the bias/clipping level is reduced, the signal's peaks are first softly rounded and then squashed.
So the effect is a combination of soft clipping and compression of the signal peaks. This allows for a wider variety of tones and phase shifting effects are heard when biased or voltage controlled.
Increasing the volume begins to saturate the entire signal, adding life and animation. Driven further, the signal begins to hard clip via GND CTRL, which introduces a quicker occurrence of high order harmonics. You can hear the changes as the signal retreats from hard clipping back into pure saturation.
MIXMODE is not just a saturator, it is a very high fidelity, precision attenuator, inverting attenuator, adder/subtracter, full color signal polarity indicator and high end DC coupled audio and control voltage mixer!
More videos and walkthroughs to come from Steady State Fate!
Enjoy!"

All Connected - Modular Event in Brussels, Belgium Starting in October
The title 'All Connected' is inspired by the idea of Dick Raaijmakers. He destabilised his studio and created unpredictable noises for pieces like Plumes and Flux, by connecting everything to everything and turning up the voltage as high as it would go - See more at: [link]"
You'll find full details on the event here: http://www.abconcerts.be/en/projects/p/detail/all-connected
Some additional details in via Mich:
"First day of the series [October 22] is with Daniël De Wereldvermaarde Botanicus with his collection of Korg MS synths, W. Ravenveer with a Eurorack modular system, a screening of a short Eliane Radigue documentary and Makino Takeshi will screen his movie Recorder with music from Jim O’Rourke.
On the second date, December 6, we will have Kassel Jaeger of GRM coming over with an all night event on the Coupigny synth and the INA-GRM.
Other dates will be announced soon."
Also:
In early 2014 there will also be specials on IPEM and on the San Francisco Tape Music Center. You'll find the ‘general’ project page for that here:

DIY Synth Time-lapse
Published on Sep 21, 2013 themonkeybars·2 videos
"A time-lapse of a DIY synthesizer. Shot using an iPhone with a time lapse app capturing 1 frame every 5 seconds at 800x600 resolution. 46000 frames total give or take a few frames here and there. The time-lapse covers every aspect of the build from start to finish, what it does not show you are the countless hours of reading, researching, tuning and yes even a little bit of trouble shooting.
The synth is comprised of mainly MFOS (Music From Outer Space) DIY kits. The Sound Lab Ultimate, 16 step sequencer, and cv/gate buffer are among some of the many great kits available from them. MFOS is a great resource for the beginner as well as avid DIY enthusiast. A custom layout was created to incorporate all these modules as well as some other custom bits onto one panel. By creating my own layout I was also able to incorporate a neat graphic EQ style led bar display that reacts to the sounds created by the synth. The upper right of the synth is were the control patching takes place, the bottom half is for making the sounds, and the top left is the 16 step sequencer.
The audio for the video was cut from a series of live on the fly Robotlegs style jams. Nothing rehearsed all off the top off your head stuff here folks, trim the fat and leave the tasty bits. Comprised of four computers running Ableton live synced via midi with all audio channel eventually ending up routed to the master clock computer for recording, Most of the synth style sounds were created using the synth in this video as well as two synths similar to the one in this video( MFOS Ultimate, Sound Lab Mini Synth Plus) Additional sounds come from a, Korg Monotribe, Monotron, A Nord Clav style keyboard, as well as various other digital and analog wizardry."

Analogue Preservation - An Unpublished Synth Book Featuring Hi-Res Pics
via Tim Mantle on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge
"About 7 years ago for a Final university project I created a book called Analogue Preservation. I shot a lot of synths using a Hasselblad HD back. Here is a small selection of images from that book...there are many more of these. One of these images shows a section of the Arp 2600 to give you an idea of the clarity I got from the camera I was using. I wanted to record these synths in extreme detail so you could go to the book and know exactly what each synth could do, bye eye rather than reading a spec. There is only one book but I still have all the high rez pictures (facebook obviously compresses these to nasty jpg). Graduated with a first in Photographic Arts"

"AS-16 is an advanced 16 channel analog CV sequencer with MIDI and audio features. At the heart of AS-16 is a user controlled sequence that can be modified in real time using the jump, skip and pad buttons.
In addition, it includes several note scales that allow you to quickly create bass lines and then tweak via MIDI, or use the built-in audio modifiers as an advanced envelope generator.
Multiple devices can be chained together for unlimited channels, and each channel has separate outputs for advanced CV routing.

Roland CompuRhythm CR-78 vintage drum machine demo
Published on Sep 15, 2013 thenormanconquest·46 videos
"This is a demo for a vintage Roland CR-78 drum machine. This video features direct recording (D.I.) as well as a voice-over by myself. The unit itself doesn't have much extra hiss/noise, but you will also hear my laptop's fan noise in the video that bled into the voice-over mic. There are no problems with this unit other than the fade in/fade out doesn't seem to work anymore. It has a modification for individual audio outputs for EACH DRUM!!! It doesn't have MIDI, but you can clock it from your sequencer by sending it pulses (I believe it's 24 ppqn). It does include print outs of the service manual and owner's manual."

The unit itself doesn't have much extra hiss/noise, but you will also hear my laptop's fan noise in the video that bled into the voice-over mic. There are no problems with this unit, it sounds great and all the preset rhythms work! It does include the attached start/stop footswitch as well as a 1/4" cable to go to a DI box or guitar amp."
Elka Drummer One SUPER RARE VINTAGE drum machine demo video
Published on Sep 15, 2013 thenormanconquest·46 videos
"This is a demo video for an extremely rare Elka Drummer One drum machine from Italy. This video features direct recording (D.I.) as well as a voice-over by myself. The unit itself does have some extra hiss/noise (due to the components/vintage of this unit), but you will also hear my laptop's fan noise in the video that got into my voice-over mic. The only two electronic problems with this unit are that the top light and the short cymbal do not work. Someone did install a universal power supply at some point, so this could be used anywhere with the right adapter plug. Someone also painted it a very glossy black (but not very well), so that might take a bit of work to get it back to original condition (or at least to the original wood color).
This drum machine was used by a bunch of Krautrock/other German experimental bands (Kraftwerk, Popul Vuh, Tangerine Dream, Cluster, etc.)."
