Surfing on the grains on Glasgow // #JAMUARY2020 Day 4

Published on Jan 4, 2020 DivKidVideo

See the Synthuary label for more. Synthuary because these are the Jamuary synth videos. More below.

"For Day 4 of #JAMUARY2020 I wanted to create a more realised musical piece. If you get the "Surfing on the grains of Glasgow" leave a comment ... I thought that was a fun (or totally lame - let me know) title.

This piece is based on the audio left in the buffer of arbhar from this video - [posted here] - with lots of modulation from ochd that keeps the audio grains shifting through the buffer, in drifting intensities, with vary lengths and grain shapes we get a beautiful repurposing of 3 basic guitar chords with a few plucked strings in-between. There's 3 FX chains running from this that's all brought together as a stereo mix in the Eurorack system before recording."

Roland LAPC-I Synthesizer Sound Card w/ MCB-1 Midi Connector

Microtec XT 2002 Master + Roland LAPC-I Published on Jul 30, 2016 Ricardo Contieri

This one was spotted and sent in via M Me. Never seen one of these before.

via this auction

"The LAPC combines the Roland MT-32-compatible MIDI synthesizer module Roland CM-32L with an MPU-401 interface on a single plug-in card. The sound is generated using linear arithmetic synthesis (LA), a form of sample-based synthesis supplemented with subtractive synthesis. As with other Roland plug-in cards with an MPU-401 interface, an MCB-1 is required to connect external MIDI devices. The sound is output either via cinch sockets or a jack socket. Compared to more modern sound cards, the LAPC masters the independent generation of sounds, but not the playback of wave files. However, it produced the sound for many retro games! Original packaging with description! Everything as new!"

DIY Modding Guide for the TD-3

This one is in via Matthias

"Here’s a DIY modding guide for the TD-3, Behringer’s take on the iconic TB303. Interest in this one was high from the start but so was the pressure of working in the footsteps of so many great engineers and modification pioneers. All the happier I am that this became a joint effort and we collected so much info on that little bass line synthesizer. In this guide you find oodles of things to do with and to your TD and, since it is so close to the 303 circuits, the latter too, if need be.

This is fully open source and not commercial, but if you’d rather buy than solder, Real World Interfaces (Devilfish) themselves declared interest in working on the TD in the future (check their page for definitive info).

The current PDF modifications guide (Version 1.5151) can be accessed here.

Get that solder flowing!"

Permanent addition to the DAWLESS setup? // Blackbox Live Looping

Published on Jan 4, 2020 Ricky Tinez

"The Blackbox by 1010 Music officially has a special place in my heart.
I knew you could easily have a dawless studio setup with one of these in it, but i never really tried to apply it to a live setup. Also using the Launchcontrol XL to midi map the blackbox was the easiest thing i've done in awhile."

"Condition is quite good considering its age - see photos.
Was gigged from late 70's to mid 80's so has signs of use
Never been used since then, I never mastered this machine and don't have the Manuel
Sounded absolutely awesome through a proper sound system , but could probably do with a service as some of the sliders a little noisy
There were only about 170 of these ever made so extremely rare"

Chimera Synthesis bC 16 Synthesizer

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

via this auction

"The bC16 can be cryptic at first, with no printed layout to describe the functions of the knobs, no description of the 25 patch points and just three blinking lights. But that's the whole of the bC16-experimentation. You can try just about any connection point with one of the ten provided 2mm mini banana patch cords. After a while you get very accustomed to this micro-modular. Lets face it, with 1 ADSR, 1 LFO, 1 VCA, and 1 VCO (actually two linked VCO's) you can't really lose yourself. For its bargain price it's also a very good contender for use with other modular or semi-modular systems to add flexibility to them-need a resettable LFO for your MS-20? You got one here. Want a second ADSR for your Sherman Filterbank? You can find one in the bC16 (although you would have to make your own mini banana adapter). The bC16 is battery powered via six AAA batteries or by an external 9 to 12v source."

It sounds excellent and comes with the original factory patches loaded into its memory. Cosmetically, it has a few nicks as expected of a synth this age but nothing major."

MINI MARBLES

10HP version of the Mutable Instruments Marbles module.

Original Marbles description:

Marbles is a source of random gates and voltages, which offers an extensive amount of (voltage) control on all the different flavors of randomness it produces. The module gives the musician many different ways of imposing structure on the random events generated by the module: synchronization to external clocks, control of the repetition or novelty of the generated material, quantization of the voltages, or randomization of gates or voltages generated by traditional sequencers.

Random gate generator Master clock
Internal clock with adjustable rate (with V/O CV input), or division/multiplication of an external clock.
Range selection button further multiplying or dividing the clock by 4.
Rhythm follower/predictor to lock onto uneven clock divisions or rhythmic patterns.
Adjustable jitter (knob and CV), going from perfect tracking to completely erroneous – but always preserving the overall tempo.
Two-channel random rhythm generator
Three gate outputs: t2 is the main output carrying the jittery clock, t1 and t3 are the complementary random rhythm output.
Three generative models, with CV-controlled bias parameter increasing the density of notes on one channel or the other:

Teisco Teischord Model G 1969 Black And Silver

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

via this auction

$340

You can find a demo of one here.

"Combo organ, also marketed as the Teisco Teischord G, made in Japan in the late 1960s. This is a great-sounding, well-made organ that is actually a lot more portable than many other contemporary organs. It has a narrow body and probably weighs only around 40 lbs., and comes with its case / lid with legs.

The teischord model g has a generally warm and sweet sound in the upper sections, with a relatively subtle vibrato with a speed control that does give it the ability to get unusually fast. One of the best things about this organ is that it can make distinctly growly bass sounds that really cut through the mix, much more so than many organs. The bass section is polyphonic and there is also an "accompaniment" section (grey keys) with a separate set of tone (filter) options. Each section has its own volume knob to control its level in the mix."

3 01 20 EH Memory Man - Like meeting again an old friend

Published on Jan 4, 2020 batchas

"I only testing the pedal here, cause I finally got to repair it.
I'm taking the signal from Tresses and send it to the pedal.
I always liked the way the Memory Man is colouring the sound.

I usually do not modify old equipment, but I'm glad I decided to make an exception on this one, by simply adding a pot in the front to replace the trimmer present on the board of the Memory Man.

Funny is the way I felt by having it brought back to life. It was like meeting an old friend when I heard the first sound coming out of the pedal! It's one of the first piece of gear I ever got to make music nearly 4 decades ago!!!"
