synth R&D for performance


YouTube via nathanielscott
"I am playing two instruments both are made out of Radio Shack electronic learning kits. The first instrument is an a sort of cheap-o optical theremin that I am playing with my left hand. The second is a ten step sequncer with a very basic square wave VCO. I did build three steps of addition master voltage control which you can see me triggering with the blue buttons with my right hand.

Before I started to take componants off the breadboard and put them into a dedicated enclosure I thought I would see if I could make noise that somewhat resmbled music with homemade electronic instruments.

I got close but in the end I dont think a ten step sequencer is a very musical design."

    Holy crap!! I used to build stuff with those radio shack kits as a kid.

    That really brought back some memories.
