OP-1 Ambient Music Jam (w/ Eurorack & Buddha Machine 5) #TTNM


Published on Apr 21, 2015 The Tuesday Night Machines

"After my exciting days at Musikmesse 2015, I relaxed with a calm jam on the OP-1, Buddha Machine and Eurorack.

The Eurorack Modular Synth plays random, self-playing background noises, while the Buddha Machine 5 loops one of its patterns. On top of that I play notes with the OP-1's FM synth.

Questions or comments? Go ahead and post them below! :) Thanks for watching! Check out my channel for more Synthesizer Music.

Little Buddha (third eye opener)

Published on Jul 9, 2013 stexe·78 videos

"The circuit of a battery-operated prayer box with three different sample loops, fit into the case of a Little Professor (a 1978 teaching calculator).

Eyeballs are wired to add distortion or bend the pitch when touched. His third eye is a volume-sensitive LED, set behind his translucent plastic forehead. Samples are selected by pressing the lower left button (this is the only button on the original keypad that functions). 1/8" audio out, power switch, volume knob, pitch knob. Runs on two AAA batteries.

Lis10er Binaural Augmented Reality App for iPhone

"Lis10er (Listener) 1.0 is a binaural audio augmented reality iPhone application that creates an 'augmented soundspace', warping and mixing the sounds from the microphone with prerecorded imagined sounds. Lis10er is designed by Matteo Milani and Federico Placidi (aka U.S.O. Project) in collaboration with Tue Haste Andersen.

Lis10er is an application that places the emphasis on the surfaces of the world in which we live. It has been developed keeping in mind the issue of 'environmental lis10ing' in everyday activities, like traveling, walking, reading.

Mixing 'live' sounds and their aural context with designed sounds creates a new 'virtual Place' where the lis10er can immerse himself and develop an active aural consciousness in order to better understand the physical and social context which describe and define our everyday life.

The app interconnects places, everyday situations and sonic awareness.

Lis10er promotes a creative mode of lis10ing."

iTunes:
Lis10er - Digital4x4

I'm curios what sort of feedback loop this might give you in the studio.

See the comments of this post for one person's experience with the app. Note this app is not a synth and best thought of in the same vein as the Buddha machine.

noiZe vieW Online Video Bhudda Machine

via Peter
"A new Buddha Machine was started today: noise-view.bplaced.net. It's a system which plays small youtube videos with recorded 'noize' sessions in a randomized selfplaying way."

In short, you load the page in your browser and a number of YouTube videos load and begin playing. It's not random and there is a bit of code behind it. It's based on Tikirobot.

"Tikirobot has published the source under the AGPL version 3 licence, so it was possible to make a derivative work of their Buddha machine. To make this noize Buddha machine I changed a lot of code, added some new features for easier configuration, multiple videos in one tile and I added some code to set minimum and maximum volume of each video."

You can check out noiZe vieW at noise-view.bplaced.net

Circuit Bent BUDDHA MACHINE

via this auction

"Up for auction is a circuit bent BUDDAH MACHINE unit. It has 6 different sound loops of bells and male and female chanting voices. They sound amazing when you drop the pitch and touch the body contacts!

I have add 2 body contacts,a pitch pot with ball knob to turn the pitch waaaaay down for amazing drone sounds and it has a 1/8" output with volume control for headphones or to send the signal to an amp or stereo system.

There is an internal speaker so you can use it without an amp. When you plug into the jack to send the sound to an amp, the internal speaker is switched off.

A great source for sampling sounds or for use live on stage. The size of this unit is approx.4" x 2" x 1.5". It uses 2 ``AA`` cells,not included.

The unit you are bidding on, it is fully circuit bent, tested and packaged and ready to ship the next day after i receive payment, so you receive it in a few days. It will look the same as the one in the picture but the pitch ball knob will be a slightly different multi-color.

I have been making and selling strange electronic instruments and circuit bent creations for 29 years. I have been selling on ebay for 10 years. I only use high quality new switches and wire and other electronic components in my circuit bent units. So if you are looking for a quality circuit bent instrument that looks great and sounds even better, look no further, you have found it.

Here is a list of the circuit bent features:
- 2 body contacts that change the pitch and tone of the sound when you touch them.
- 1 Pitch change pot with ball knob to drop the pitch waaaaay down for amazing drone sounds.
- 1 1/8" audio output jack to send the signal to an amp or stereo system.

This unit will work as normal with all bending controls off.This unit is designed for recording sounds in the studio. It can make some amazing sounds and drones! It makes sounds that you can't get from any other instrument! Great for techno, sound FX, electronic music."

Suitcase Studio Improvisation 3


YouTube Uploaded by insanic4 on Sep 1, 2011
"Here is the third improvisation using my suitcase music studio. It was a sunny day here in the Netherlands so lots of natural lighting in this movie. On the Nintendo DSi XL I run the Korg DS-10 and on the iPod touch I run the FM3 Buddha Machine app which combines nicely with the lo-fi sound of the hardware Buddha Machine (that orange box). The DS10 and the Kaossilator are synced the old school way by pressing the play button at the right time (before I started filming). Once they're in sync they stay in sync for a long time.

There is one stupid mistake in this movie but I'm not telling you what it was :)

The suitcase has the following devices:

Korg Kaoss Pad Mini
Korg Kaossilator
Korg Monotron
Korg SR1 Sound on Sound
MFB Nanozwerg
FM3 Buddha Machine
Rolls MX41b
Art PowerMix III
Nintendo DSI XL with Korg DS10
Apple iPod Touch with Line 6 MIDI Mobilizer
MAM Map1

The audio was recorded with the Korg MR-2000S."
