Buchla Inspired Custom DIY Eurorack Modular From Gábor Kakuk

via Gábor Kakuk of Gamma Devices

"Custom made eurorack system, in a 12 mm plywood case (with very dark glaze). The only thing which is not DIY is the power supply, its a 4MS Mini Power. Every module was built on stripboard or on home etched PCB-s, except the Turing Machine, which was ordered from Thonk.

The modules :

- Ersatz Verben Analog Delay
- René Schmitz Dual YASH (modificated version, by me)
- YuSynth MiniMoog VCF
- YuSynth Wavefolder
- FCUK Roland System100M Dual 131 VCA
- Buchla 292f, Fonink clone
- MaxAmp (dual audio to modular converter)
- FCUK Roland System 100M 132 Mixer
- Music Thing Modular Spring Reverb Driver
- YuSynth Dual Arp 4072 VCF
- YuSynth Dual Noise + Sample and Hold
- YuSynth Dual VCO (modded to +/-12V operation, built in "West Coast" stlye
- Music Thing Modular Turing Machine
- René Schmitz Dual Korg MS-20 VCF (LP and HP, PCB layout by Jörg Schmitz)
- NOR Triple LFO (layouts by Niklas Rönnberg)
- YuSynth Dual ADSR (old and new design behind 1 panel)
- YuSynth Dual Steiner VCF"

Wiard Model 5R-371 371 Woggle Bug 300 Series Module

"From Wiard's site:

The Woggle Bug is an utterly unique module that produces complex random voltages and tones. It reproduces the set of random voltages available from the original Buchla Model 265 "Source of Uncertainty" module. This long out of production module is representative of the most musical random voltage generators produced in the first "Golden Age" of modular synthesizers.

The Woggle Bug adds four permanently coupled audio VCOs to the random voltage outputs. The single mechanical module contains the equivalent functionality of 18 electrical modules. Obviously, all the patch points cannot be brought out to the front panel. The modules are permanently patched into a unique arrangement of two identical "Woggle Bugs" and their "Child Tones". Each Woggle Bug has 3 control voltage inputs, 4 control voltage outputs and 5 audio outputs. Child tones are the ring modulated outputs of the two Woggle Bug "parents.” The control voltage outputs are the reason for the module and correspond to the more traditional sample and hold units with lag processors as found in other modulars. The module produces stepped, smoothed (lag processed) and "woggled" (stepped voltages with decaying sinusoids at the edges) control voltages in the range of 0 to 10 volts. These voltages are usable with any other brand of voltage controlled modular. The smooth voltages are produced by cascaded lag processors which produce a "very" smooth voltage that produces natural sounding wind and surf patches. The module as a whole produces 10 simultaneously available electronic tonalities. The tonalities are deliberately very raw in nature. Part of the 1950's sound is the simple square and sawtooth waveforms output by electronic test equipment. Mixed together and put through a tape delay, well, you'll be doing battle with your Id monster in no time! This applies to only some settings of the 10 controls and some of the 10 outputs. Other settings produce the sound of very large insects, or swarms of large insects. It cannot make keyboard sounds and cannot be controlled by a keyboard. Hooray!

Features:
• Two Multi-function circuits that provide VCA, crossfade, segue, and balanced modulator functions
• A jack multiple
• Bantam (TT) or 3.5mm jacks"

Korg Electribe 2 House Music Demo

Published on Jan 9, 2015 djthomaswhite

"My first demo of the Korg Electribe 2 Synthesizer and drum machine. I am loving this studio tool so far. The sounds are quite a bit more powerful than I expected although I am discovering some limitations along the lines of polyphony due to effects per channel using a voice of polyphony. However, knowing the possibilities, including any limitations can force innovation from the necessary work around process so I look forward to playing with this more and squeezing every ounce of power from it to share in future demos."

"Start the day off right as you jam on your SCI Prophet synth and sip some java from your SCI cup.

This is a vintage Sequential Circuits coffee cup with a drawing of a Prophet 5. I got this back in 1981 when I had a music store and was an SCI dealer. They sent them to all of their dealers for xmas.

Cup is 3.25 inches tall and 3.5 inch diameter. It is in good condition except for a small chip on the rim near the handle (not bad for a 35 year old cup). See photos with closeup of the chip."

ADDAC301 Expression and Sustain Pedals Series

Published on Jan 9, 2015 ADDAC System

ADDAC301 Expression and Sustain Pedals Series - Part 2


"We developed these as it became clear to us that most often, while playing a modular system, our hands are busy, cables around our neck, some between our teeth and still our feet are normally free.
It's also kinda normal to have an expression pedal lying around somewhere so we thought of bringing these back, clean up the dust and put them to good use.

ADDAC301 Floor Control
This module allows the connection of any standard expression and sustain pedal.
The expression pedal action can be fine tuned with Range and Offset knobs.
-Range defines the voltage range (-10v, +10v).
-Offset transposes the range by (-10v, +10v).
-Two leds, plus and minus, monitor the CV Output
-Positive and inverted output jacks.
The sustain pedal action will generate a gate signal on the gate output.
-One led monitors this output.

Also features a bus board +5v Adaptor, this will be able to provide +5v to any bus board.
This feature can be removed through a jumper on the back of the module.

ADDAC301B Dual Expression Pedal Attenuator
Passive dual expression pedal attenuator.
Plug any CV or audio source through it and control its amplitude through any standard expression pedal.
Invert switch for inverting the expression pedal action.

ADDAC301C Dual Sustain Pedal Switcher
Passive dual sustain pedal switcher.
Plug any CV or audio source through it and control it's state (on / off) through any standard sustain pedal.
