5/31-6/3/25 multitrack test of Roland TR-909 internal clock
video upload by Cfpp0
"5/31-6/3/25 Roland TR-909 + General Radio 1564-A + ElectroComp EML 200 + Ace Tone MP-4 + DeltaLab Effectron II + Peavey DDL-3 + Alesis MIDIVERB II
This video started out as a quick test of a black General Radio 1564-A Sound and Vibration Analyzer, with the 1564-A processing the Roland TR-909 low tom. The 1564-A is kind of crusty, but it works. Then that video prompted a test to see if the Roland TR-909 internal clock is solid. It is very solid; there are about five different takes layered in this video, and they’re all using the 909 internal clock. The kick, clap, rim shot, hats, ride, low tom and high tom are all used, with the low tom getting either all pass processed or 1/3 octave processed. The rim shot also gets processed towards the end. And the high wood block sound is the 1564-A getting pinged by the 909 trigger output (which is set by a rim shot pattern). The clap and the high tom are processed by the Ace Tone MP-4 preamps and spring reverb. The Alesis MIDIVERB II is used heavily for reverbs, including some absurd reversed delays. The Peavey DDL-3 and the DeltaLab Effectron II are used for delays throughout the video. The drones are two ElectroComp EML 200 synthesizers."

5/20/25 Metasonix RK10 & RK7 & RK2 & RK6 + DeltaLab Effectron II + Alesis MIDIVERB II
video upload by Cfpp0
"5/20/25 Metasonix RK10 & RK7 & RK2 & RK6 + MFB AHDSR + Doepfer 183-2 + ALM Pamela’s anew Workout + DeltaLab Effectron II + Alesis MIDIVERB II
The Metasonix RK10 sequencer CV output is modulating the Metasonix RK7 Thyratron VCO and the Metasonix RK6 filter, with no audio input, but with resonance at the threshold of self-oscillation. Both the RK7 and the RK6 run through the Animodule MixMan into the Metasonix RK2 VCA (horsecock). One of the RK2 outputs runs through a 2hp Trim into the DeltaLab Effectron II into the Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer, panned a bit left, with reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II. The other RK2 output runs through a 2hp Trim to the Mackie, with the same reverb. The RK10 is clocked by ALM Pamela’s New Workout, boosted by the Doepfer 183-2. Pamela’s is also driving the MFB dual AHDSR, which is controlling the RK2."

5/3-5/25 (2 patterns) Simmons SDS6 & SDS1 + DR-55 clone + DigiTech HM4 + EML 200 + (in description)
video upload by Cfpp0
"5/3-5/25 (2 patterns) Simmons SDS6 & SDS1 ('flange snare') + Doctor 55 clone + DeltaLab Effectron II + TAMA DS200 + ElectroComp EML 200 + Ace Tone MP-4 + DigiTech HM4 Harmony Machine + Alesis MIDIVERB II + MXR 136 Dual Limiter + DBX 119 + Peavey 1300
This Simmons SDS6 was dead, but it’s been serviced by The Simmons Guy. It got converted from 220v to 115v with a rebuilt PSU, a cloned reset circuit on a custom PCB, traces rerouted on the dead expansion PCB with new caps and trimmer, new RAM ICs, new batteries, plus a MIDI in mod and, due to a lot of corrosion, plenty of new traces, caps, resistors, diodes, and so on. I’m still working my way through the SDS6 manual, but it’s already been a real pleasure to have such a giant sequencer. It makes the Doepfer Trigger Matrix seem microscopic. Considerable noise from the SDS6 is audible through the (always noisy) Doctor 55 clone. Not sure why. Anyways, the SDS6 is triggering the DR-55, which runs through the DeltaLab Effectron II, overloading the preamp limiter, fully wet, full feedback. In the first pattern, the Effectron II is set to Flange Lo (16ms). And then Double (64ms) in the second pattern. The SDS6 also triggers the SDS1, with a “flange Snare” EPROM and with the auto run feature on, and it’s panned a bit right with reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II. The SDS6 also triggers the TAMA DS200, which runs through the Ace Tone MP-4 for saturation and spring reverb. The DR-55 is also running through the Peavey 1300, which is panned left and has a lot of reverb from the MIDIVERB II. I did an overdub where I ran the whole first pattern through the DigiTech HM4 harmonizer, but the detuned copy sounded better when placed early, before the high pitched original. So if you are wondering why you can’t see those detuned notes on the SDS6 matrix, that’s why. You can see those notes being leveled by the MXR 136 limiter in the cutaway shots. The second pattern has drones from the EML 200 synthesizers: one is constant, panned left, and getting louder the whole time; the other is four VCOs through two VCAs, modulated by two different master sine waves, with the EML internal spring reverbs and reverb from the MIDIVERB II."

Shin-Ei “Four-in-the-floor” drum synthesizer foot pedal
video upload by Cfpp0
"Shin-Ei drum machine. Runs on two 9v batteries. Works perfectly, just some occasional scratch on the volume sliders. Distort it and it becomes another thing altogether. Compress it and you can get some 808-ish. Sticker on bottom says from 1974."

7/14/23 Chuck Johnson’s “Caldera Wires” poorly programmed into Firstman SQ-01 + Metasonix TM-5
Some pics with the original box via this auction
"This is a vintage Shin-Ei 4 IN THE FLOOR PERCUSSION COMBO foot operated drum machine. Yes, the same Shin-Ei that brought you the Univibe pedal!
Powered by 9v batteries, and operated via four pedals to trigger four drum sounds, with four sliders to control the volume of each drum sound.
The snare rooooolllllllllllllllllls. And you can set the rate of the roll, which they call REPEAT, with a flathead screw driver! Mono 1/4” out.
Great skeuomorphic wood grain laminate with chrome and aluminum. Rainbow on the back, and a cool wedge shape all around. The drum sounds are beefy, robust, healthy, and sound very analog.
I played the pedals by hand, though they are meant to be played by foot, probably while playing guitar, keys, woodwinds, brass, drums, turntables, or possibly the harp if you wanna get all Zeena Parkins and Ikue Mori with it.
Rare as a leprechaun, ride this rainbow into the night."

Delta Lab Effectron JR 1050 + Dave Smith Instruments Poly Evolver
Published on Apr 3, 2014 LESINDES·164 videos
"Stunning combination. I was quite surprised how strong the EFFECTRON JR was affecting the per se rich sound of the POLY EVOLVER!!!! The internal delays of the POLY EVOLVER were switched off. The delay FX you hera in the video and that is creating this scent of ambient are only produced by the fabulous DELTA LAB EFFECTRON JR."

Village - Stranger Thoughts (the passenger's drift mix) & the Delta Labs DL-2

"sea sick head nod...look out and unfocus your eyes
villagevillage.bandcamp.com"
via Jesse Creed on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge
"remixed with ableton and a tr808 through a delta labs acoustic computer"

via Lace Dj on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge
"By request here is the rare deltalab dl-2 from the Canmarc collection. Jesse & I use it all the time. It's a dual digital delay line that can function in serial or parallel mode. It's unique in many ways, the most obvious being in the name. It's one of the few digital devcie that uses delta modulation instead of pcm to sample audio and it's part of the reason it has a unique sound. You can sample the input, hold and randomise the delay, then add eq + reverb and modulate the result with an LFO on delay time and reverb pitch. You can change image and phase on the fly, and it has voltage control inputs on the back for the VCO. Around it are a couple other of our vinatge units, above is another rare Deltalab, The dl-5 Harmonicomputer voltage controlled pitch shifter and below it is the Intersound R100 spring reverb."
