Human Comparator 73-75 Home Built Serge Paperface

"Wonderful Serge paperface system from The Human Comparator, or THC, built into a lovely Black Hole case. Comes with a xlr4 external power supply.

This is a powerful starter system that can cover tons of sonic territory. The only issue is the reverb leaves much to be desired. The output is low. I get around this by using the preamp as a gain stage to boost the signal, but to be honest I use external effects 95 percent of the time (this thing through the Supermassive plugin is amazing!)"

"Includes Low-gain power and 9FB2D1B reverb tank, and comes in an 8u flight case.

Just been checked & calibrated (last week) by Charlie / Loudest Warning so all in top condition. Has the lights mod on the envelope generators.

I can’t imagine you’ll find a better example of this synth."

Human Comparator TTSH w/ Pink LED Sliders in Silver Monorocket Case

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


via this auction

"This guy is awesome and super hot looking, the case is a custom silver (the only one) arp clone case made by monorocket, its ridiculously awesome. Here are the issues and things to note. There are 3 LEDs that aren't lit...oh by the way they are special pink LEDs...the photos don't do it justice. Playing it today I noticed osc 1 square output is low. I patched osc 1 saw into the mixer and it was normal volume. I installed the speakers but they will overdrive if you have volume sliders all the way up...if I use them I keep them 3/4 volume...you could make adjustments to the circuit to tame it if you want.
For some reason I never hooked up the reverb. There's a tank in there just needs hooked up. I also bought a super cool set of LED slider caps from THONK...they look great."

Latest Todd Barton Videos



It looks like Todd Barton's channel is the latest to be hit by my YouTube subscription bug. For some reason some of my subscriptions are not notifying me. If you are a supporting member and do not see your videos going up, please feel free to send them in. Not sure what's up with YouTube. P.S. If anyone out there works for Google/YouTube, please look into this if possible.

That said, here's the playlist for the above:

1. NVO Sequences and Discoveries
2. Buchla 245 on THC NVO
3. Buchla 246 and 248
I just got this beautiful Buchla 246 Programmable Voltage Source built by Adam Scramstad. My all time favorite sequencer. There are two short maiden voyage explorations here. 1) Buchla 246 and 248 (MARF) and the second just the 246. This second one uses the 246 to take panning on a wild ride so maybe headphones or speakers. . .
4. BuchlaBot Lives
Soundtracks made on Buchla Music Easel, Buchla 200e Electric Music Box and Buchla 200. Enjoy!
5. 296e Env Followers meet Krell
Exploring sending lots of Envelope Followers out from the 296e Spectral Processor to many different functions inside a little Krell patch.
6. Pi Day Beat
OK, I'm definitely late to the Pi Day Party but couldn't resist doing something with those numbers, intervals and rhythm. Enjoy!

Feedback patching with the THC Recursive Machine


HAINBACH

"In which I demo and review the Recursive Machine by The Human Comparator. The RM is DIY analog semi-modular synth designed from the ground up to feedback into itself. This results in a unique instrument, where little changes can have huge results. I show musical examples, put it in contest with acoustic instruments and go over the functions and signal path."
