Perfect Circuit Audio (RSS) - Boomstars here.

"This is a demo of the Boomstar 4075 (ARP 2600 filter) being sequenced by a Doepfer Dark Time. Because of the nature of the demonstration, it could get a little boring during some sections. Pay attention to the subtle changes and you will be impressed. Stay tuned through the whole video to see how much range the Boomstars can cover. This is only a short segment as well, these synths are capable of much more."

"This one has a new internal battery/battery holder installed and the original presets loaded on it . Mk1 Poly800's do not have a memory backup battery and so unless you keep a full set of charged batteries installed at all times the program memories will be lost when you switch the machine off)

Modifying sounds is easy even if you can only change each parameter one at a time.
In addition it has an internal sequencer (64 notes) which is extremely easy to program and makes it ideal for programming say, a bass line so you can play lead while the sequencer runs the loop.
Chorus effect is also analog . This keyboards also includes an original korg hard case especially for the poly 800..."

The Jellyfish by Plankton Electronics




via Plankton Electronics

"Based on a pair of PT2399 chips The Jellyfish is a double delay with modulation options capable of a wide variety of sounds. Analog passive filters, CV inputs, two LFOs, infinite feedback switch, xdelay function, “dry” and “wet” controls, pseudo-stereo (1 in-2 outs) or mono mixed sound makes this delay machine a versatile tool for your live set or your studio. From simple delay lines to crazy modulated stereo sounds.


SPECIFICATIONS:
Front Panel Controls:

VELO: Frequency of the LFO. It can go from 0,33 to 3,12 Hz and modulates the time parameter of the delay.

DEPTH: Quantity of modulation applied to the time parameter. It goes from 0 or no modulation to full wave modulation. It works on the LFOs and the CV inputs.

WAVE: This switch changes between square or triangle waves of the LFO. These are not exact square and triangle waves. It have some imperfections giving its own character to the machine. Square and triangle waves have different amplitudes also.

TIME: The main function of the delay. It controls the delay time and varies from 27 to 570msg. With this times the PT2399 are going through its capabilities. So on longer times you will notice some noise and distortion of the sound.

FINE: This pot also controls the delay time but only a 10% of the main pot do. It is very useful when you want to be very precise or when using the two delay lines at once, providing nice surf stereo expanding sound.

FEEDBACK: It sends the output of the delay again to its input causing repetition. It varies from 0 (one delay) to infinite. To more repetitions, more distortion and filtering are added to the sound.

INFINTE: When this switch is activated and the feedback pot set at its maximum position the repetion never stops. This makes that the level increases at every step.

DRY & WET: Mix input and effect signals to the output. Note that this pots are not are the same level when clockwise. The effect level amplifies the signal while the DRY have a gain of 1. If you want a gain of 1 on the effect turn the pot at 3 o’clock.

XDELAY: When activated this switch sends the output of the delay line 1 to the input of the delay line 2 and viceversa. This tool is used for create interesting double delay lines. It’s necessary to turn on the feedback pot of the secundary delay line to activate this feature. The feedback pot acts as a level of the 2nd delay.

PARALLEL: When it’s off this switch sends the delay line 1 to out 1 and the delay line 2 to out 2. When it’s on sends the 2 delay lines to the output 1.

BYPASS: Turns on and off the effect. When off the input goes directly to outs 1 and 2 through a buffer.

Rear Panel Controls:

CV INPUTS: this inputs modulates the time parameter of the delay. When plugged it deactivates the LFO. It accept positive DC signals. Too loud line signal can distort the chip input.

OUT 1: Output signal of the delay line 1.

OUT2: Output signal of the delay line 2.

IN: Input signal. It accepts line, synth and instrument levels.

DC 9V: Accepts 9V DC center negative. The machines consumes 60mA, use a power supply with 100-200mA.

General Specs:

CASE: Aluminum black painted.

DIMENSIONS: 188x120x33 mm

WEIGHT: 687 gr."

Snazzy FX Ardcore Expander Eurorack Module

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

via this auction
Perfect Circuit Audio
"Add even more flexibility and power to your Ardcore with the new Expander!

First off , 8 buffered trigger /gate outs (10v to gurantee that even the most finicky vcas will open!!) and 8 LEDS allow for a whole new type of Ardcore sketch: clock dividers, gate sequencers, variation generators, etc.

Also, two additional BI-POLAR CV/audio inputs with attenuators. (Arduino A4 and A5) These are great for quantizers and other programs which benefit from both sides of a bi-polar waveform. No external offset needed!

And for maximum ease of use, PINS 11 and 13 have been added as separate outs with RC filters. So many Arduino sketches default to pin 11 that we thought it would be nice to have the option of plugging straight in. So now you can use the DAC or pin 11. Or the Dac and PIN 13. Or any combination.

And with the added RESET button, selecting individual sketches within one of the Compound Multi-Sketches is super easy!!!

Don't Forget: The Expander allows you to start taking advantage of new programs! And it adds more controls (OR CV INPUTS) to complex performance sketches like The multi-mode arppegiator!

Its never been easier to add 60 modules worth of functionality to your Modular. And with the Ardcore Expander, you can load even more preset programs, edit in even more CV control, or create more complex sketches.

Features

8 additional trigger/gate outputs with LED indicators
2 additional bi-polar CV/Audio inputs with attenuators
Pins 11 and 13 available as outputs with RC filters

Snazzy FX Wow and Flutter Tape Style Delay Eurorack Module

"Sweet, warbly, tape style delay for your Eurorack Modular!

Years after the release of the revered Wow and Flutter, the eurorack module version is finally here! Not only does it live up to the original, it has a bunch of new features. Since this is for your modular synthesizer, the headroom has increased to 10 volts peak to peak. Effects possible with this module range from subtle tape warble to full-on pitch weirdness, snapback delay, rubbery sounds, dark echo, delayed swells, and self-oscillating feedback madness.

Use it as a regular delay by turning down the Warp knob, the color is dark and soft. Turn up the warp halfway and you begin to get pitched delays and warbly goo. Turn Warp all the way up and it has a unique sound all its own. For those of you who have never tried a Wow and Flutter, it is so much more than a delay. In fact the original intent of the box wasn't delay at all, it was the sound of the tape machine eating your tape. But it CAN do delay. And it can also do spiky sounds. And boing sounds. You just have to play with it. And using it on drums and synths allows a whole new basket of sounds to crash through your speaker

We have added CV control of Delay time (attenuated by the Depth knob) as well as an external envelope input AND Cv control of Decay time. So you have external control of 3 parameters. We have also added two feedback modes. With the toggle switch in the top position the feedback is very calm and resembles the original stompbox. With the toggle flipped down, WATCH OUT! At max feedback it only takes a second or two to go into self-oscillating distortion. But turn it down just a touch, and you can get quite a bit of control over your dubbed out explorations.

The attack and decay controls are exactly as they were on the original, but a jumper is on the back of the module for those who wish to take their Warbles into extreme regions. Simply move the jumper into FAST mode.

We have also future-proofed this module by adding an expander port in the back. Coming sometime in late 2013 you can expect an expander which will add even more modulation weirdness and control to your new favorite delay module!

And that's not all. There are two extra jacks which were not found on the original. WET OUT and ENV OUT. Wet out is fully wet. Use this in combination with the Envelope Input for unique sounds, or just use it to add to your mix.

The ENV OUT allows you to take the Wow's envelope follower control output and patch it into your filter CV or VCO CV…..create interesting feedback loops where the Wow is responding to the very amplitude and pitch that it is effecting!

There is also a new ENV LED, so now when you dial in the threshold control, you can see exactly when and how intensely the WARP function is going to garble your sound.

So in closing, the new Wow and Flutter module has a bunch of new features, keeps all the old ones, and in the process ends up as a very powerful modulation tool. We have put up some videos to let you hear the Wow processing drums and synths. With just a few knob turns you can really change the entire character of your input.If you have been searching for a delay with the character of a tape delay twisted and melted, look no further.

JOMOX XBASE09 TACTILE SWITCH REPLACEMENT


via Circuitbenders.co.uk

"If you own a Jomox XBase09 drum machine, then you've probably noticed that by now some of the red LED pushbuttons / tactile switches, are starting to become a little unresponsive or prone to double triggering. This can make programming the machine extremely frustrating and unreliable. There is also a distinct danger of damage to the PCB under the buttons, as you inevitably pound away on certain commonly used steps pleading with it to 'just f*@king work you bastard thing!'"

Filter-Buffer Roland 13-pin GR-55 VG-99 Guitar Synth Tracking Optimizer and Efx


Published on Oct 9, 2013

http://www.joness.com/gr300/Filter-Bu...

"The Filter/Buffer does three things: first, the six subsonic filters remove non-musical and mechanical noise from the output of a 13-pin Roland guitar synth controller to improve synthesizer tracking and COSM modeling.

Second, the Filter/Buffer provides two buffered auxiliary inputs to enable non-GK equipped guitars or any audio source to access COSM amp modeling and effects in a Roland guitar synthesizer like the GR-55.

Finally, the Filter/Buffer adds a master effects loop for both the two auxiliary inputs, and the normal guitar output from the Roland 13-pin guitar synth controller."

"Thiago Pinheiro introduces AAS' analog synthesizer"

Ultra Analog VA-2 -- Analog Synthesizer

"In a world filled with reproductions and ever increasing complexity, Ultra Analog imposes itself as a unique and powerful synth that is fast, easy, and remarkably versatile.

WHAT’S NEW? §
With its familiar face and powerful advanced editing capabilities, Ultra Analog VA-2 simply redefines what a classic synth should be.

NEWFactory library
The completely renewed factory library has well over 600 production-ready sounds classified for fast and intuitive exploration.

NEWCompressor and equalizer
These new additions are perfect to add punch and definition to your sound, letting you cut through any dense mix or stage.

NEWLimiter
The new output limiter protects your ears and monitors during experimentation with the synth’s parameters while providing a maximum of distortion-free dynamics.

NEWStreamlined interface
Redesigned from the ground up, the new interface now divides Ultra Analog VA-2 into three panels: Play presents shortcuts to the performance and effect parameters including bypass switches for quick edits; Edit lets you tweak and create your sound; while FX supplies equalizer, compressor, multi-effect, and reverb processors for a final sheen.

NEWBank and program manager
Ultra Analog VA-2’s new manager allows simple and efficient organization, backup, and sharing of your sounds.

UPDATEDOverhauled effects
Reinvigorated and polished, Ultra Analog VA-2’s multi-effect processor features our best sounding chorus, delay, phaser, flanger, distortion, notch filter, wah-wah, auto-wah, and reverb to date!

NEWNative 64-­bit AU, VST, and AAX plug­-ins
Ultra Analog VA-2 now runs in native 64-bit on Mac OS X and Windows making it compatible with the latest sequencers.

NEWRichard Devine signature sounds
Renown sound designer Richard Devine delved into the new Ultra Analog VA-2 to forge a state-of-the-art collection of 110 presets that are simply essential."
