"As promised, here's another video of the new prototype that's been under development. A few slight changes have been made since the last video, but nothing major.

I recorded a simple guitar loop using the empress super delay and fed it through the prototype. No other effects were used.

I tried to show more of the subtle capabilities of the unit this time, but I can't help but crank the ratchety and bubbly stuff from time to time.

This prototype is nearing the final stages of development, and a few beta units will soon be sent out to a few friend for some abuse. Production units will be available sometime early next year.

Thanks again for watching!"

Update: video description added:
"Just finished a new batch of units last week!

This is just a simple demo of a morris box with no effects. This particular unit is in a slightly different configuration from other morris boxes, and its fun!

This unit, along with two others, will be on sale at Transistor in Chicago soon. Check out their website here: http://www.transistorchicago.com/

A proper marsynth website is now under construction and should be up soon!

As always, thanks for watching!"

"Here's a video of another morris box that was finished last week.

This time, I'm running the morris box through an empress super delay. I've always loved this combo, so I figured it was about time I shot some footage of them together.

This unit, along with two others, will be on sale at Transistor in Chicago soon. Check out their website here: http://www.transistorchicago.com/

"Finally some new stuff to share!

Running a recently completed Morris Box through a new prototype. This will be the first Marsynth device with an external input for running whatever you want through it: guitar, vocals, other Marsynth stuff... anything!

This video highlights the more chaotic capabilities of the device. Footage of smoother and more subtle capabilities coming soon.

As always, thanks for watching!"

Marsynth modular buchla test 2

YouTube via marsynth | September 24, 2010

"Another video of the buchla LPG getting taken through its paces (still on the breadboard... I need to actually finish this thing sometime...).

This video also features some new(ish) modules for my system that I finished over the summer: my eight-step circle sequencer (providing the main melody/groove line), and my 4x4 grid sequencer (providing randomness to the poppy/clicky part) (there you go electro-music diy folks, better late than never right?).

Effects include delay via an empress super delay, reverb via my mixing board, and overall audio shittyness via my cell phone's mic.

Thanks again for watching!"

Marsynth Morris Box Testing

YouTube via marsynth | September 14, 2010

"Just another quick video shot from my phone. This time I'm testing out a new unit: the Marsynth Morris Box. This synth is made of two oscillators, a filter, and an lfo with pwm, all housed in a cigar box. The synth is being run through a healthy dose of reverb, and then picked up by the shitty microphone in my phone (good enough for youtube I guess...).

Currently, all Marsynth products are still being sold locally here in Lawrence KS ( http://www.richardsmusicstore.com/ ), although I hope to be setting up a website soon . I try to keep up with posting pictures of every unit made here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marsynth although I've been slacking recently.

Thanks for watching!"

Marsynth modular

YouTube via marsynth | August 16, 2010

"I recently got a new phone that shoots decent video, so I figured I'd try to post something while testing it out.

This is where the ideas for new marsynth products come from: my modular system. This system is entirely hand made by myself, and a majority of the module designs are originals as well. Most marsynth products are simply derived from various patches.

In this video, I'm testing out an adaptation of the classic buchla 292 low pass gate."
