Gecho & Friends - Part 3: 8bit Mixtape Neo

Published on Oct 24, 2018 Gecho Loopsynth

"This is the very cool looking 'Berliner Schule' edition of 8bit Mixtape Neo from http://neo.8bitmixtape.cc/ - a little digital synthesizer which is also available as a DIY kit! There are various firmwares available too, this is just one of them.

They play nice together. Mixtape's monophonic output is spread around stereo with delay effect, layered into the loop, filtered using low-pass filters individually controlled by four Gecho's infra-red proximity sensors.

As usual, no additional effects or post-processing applied."

The 8BitMixtapeNEO

You might remember the original 8BitMixtape from back in August of 2015 posted here. This is the NEO version introduced in 2017.

The 8BitMixtapeNEO is a lo-fi 8Bit synthesizer based on the Arduino-compatible ATTINY85, featuring 2 Pots, 2 Buttons and 8 adressable RGB Neo-pixels. The key feature of the new 8BitMixtapeNEO is the easiness of uploading new codes using an audio communication protocol, means just playing a .wav sound file from your computer/smart phone (or walkman).

Technical Specs

The high-performance, low-power Microchip 8-bit AVR RISC-based microcontroller combines 8KB ISP flash memory, 512B EEPROM, 512-Byte SRAM, 6 general purpose I/O lines

Berliner Schule plays Roland System 100

"8 Bit Mix Tape 'Berliner Schule' is sequencing Roland System100. 'Berliner Schule' is a 8 Step control voltage sequencer using an atiny84 microcontroller. For triggering the System 100 a trigger converter for the higher voltage of the System 100 is needed."

And a second video from Marc Dusseiller. Not sure what it's driving in this one.

Berliner Schule - 8Step Mixtape

"more about the 8Bit Mixtape series:
https://8bitmixtape.github.io/"

Note there are a number of different firmwares including an 8BitMixtapeBeatSlicer and 8BitMixtapeDJ "experimental 8 bit mixtape with dual pwm out and digital crossfade". I created a new 8BitMixtape channel for these moving forward.

The Berliner Schule is a "modified 8step sequencer to run on attiny84, with LED driving and eeprom save"
