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

via this auction

Cool performance space at the LED LAB NYC.

"Orange Mono-Rocket case with 12 Snazzy FX modules and 7 others. I was an early investor in Snazzy FX, which has evolved to have a cult following in the electronic music world, through Dan’s genius inventing, circuit design, graphics and hard work. To our knowledge this is the most complete assembly of Dan’s modules. It is unique and wonderful.

I am preparing to sell my studio, down-size, and move. That time in life. Selling my absolute favorite and most precious items. Dan Snazelle is a genius inventor, circuit designer, and an incredible musician. Best graphics in the business. Snazzy FX users of note go from Trent Reznor to The Red Hot Chili Peppers to Stephin Merritt of Magnetic Fields, and many others.

Sold working fine but ‘As Is’ from a non-smoking studio. No returns.

Snazzy FX modules include:

Hi Gain, Eternal Spring, Kitty Eyes, Kick Me, Drone Bank, Dreamboat, Telephone Game, Ardcore, Ardcore Expander, Chaos Brother, Wow+Flutter, Tidal Wave.

Other modules:

Make Noise DPO, Doepfer A-132-3 DVCA, Intellijel Quadra, MMS Quad Clock Distributor, Tip Top Z2042 LP-VCF, Doepfer A-138 Mixer (two) and one VCA.

First photo is from an installation at the LED LAB NYC. 2104. Low hours on this rig."

Snazzy FX pedals explored by Artur Punte poetry


Published on Aug 1, 2018 Erica Synths

"Artur Punte takes different approach to Snazzy FX pedals.

Setup:
1) Voice record goes to the Wow and Flutter's input
2) Output signal from the Wow and Flutter goes to the Tracer City
3) The same voice record* signal splitted to The Mini-Ark as well
4) Square-wave output from The Mini-Ark goes to the Expression pedal input of the Tracer City
5) Signal from CV output of The Mini-Ark the CV input of the Tracer City
6) Output form the Tracer City, The Mini-Ark and voice record* go directly to a mixer

Record from the mixer's monitor output as it is – no effects, no postproduction or mastering.

* Poem "Today I Understood" by Artur Punte (translated by Kevin M. F. Platt), voice: Jayde Will

___
Manufactured in Latvia by Erica Synths now pedals are put in more compact heavy duty boxes with solid build quality keeping the authentic sound of the SnazzyFX pedals from the original run and will not only stand the test of time but will turn heads wherever you take them. Effects are great to use not only for guitar & bass players but experimental musicians and synthesists as well both in live and studio set up.

Treadstone Synth Through The Wow & Flutter Delay


Published on Jun 22, 2018 Perfect Circuit Audio

"The classic Snazzy FX effects boxes are back, being built by a collaboration between Snazzy FX and Erica Synths. We wanted to hear the Wow & Flutter which is a digital delay that has some of the weird warbling pitch shifting effects of a broken tape delay. The sounds going into the wow and flutter were made with Analogue Solutions tiny semi-modular synthesizer, the Treadstone and sequenced by Doepfer's Dark Time.

IKEA PAX Synthesizer Music Station!!! #TTNM


Published on Mar 3, 2018 The Tuesday Night Machines

"In this video I present you my very own IKEA hack! A PAX wardrobe made to fit my complete modular synthesizer music setup, in a way that's flexible and ergonomic.

I tied a lot of different music setups over the years. Standing at a desk, sitting at a desk, sitting on the floor, large cases, small cases, 19" racks and so on ... I found that standing upright in front of my gear feels the best to me and having a wardrobe with doors I can close to hide the mess is really nice too, when I lack a dedicated music room in the apartment. The wardrobe also helps to keep things contained and not spreading/expanding all over the place. Too much gear doesn't help my creativity and the PAX has a good size, just bordering on the "too much" side."

Close-up Generative Eurorack Patch (with notes) #TTNM


Published on Jan 20, 2018 The Tuesday Night Machines

"Another go at generative Eurorack modular synth patching with my Snazzy FX system! MORE INFO BELOW :-)

Audio gear used:

Snazzy FX Eurorack Modular Synth with:
- Drone Bank
- Eternal Spring Filter
- Dual Multiplier
- Kitty Eyes
- Tidal Wave
- Telephone Game
- Ardcore Bit Beats Sketch *
- Wow and Flutter

- vpme.de ZeroScope
- Doepfer A-160 Clock Divider
- Eowave Zone B.F. Dual LFO
- Doepfer, Intellijel & Bimix mixers
- Klangbau Köln Spring Reverb

see here: https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/v...


Patch notes:

The Tidal Wave is in synth voice mode providing pitched filter oscillation sounds with some wave shaping. It also provides a square LFO acting as master clock. The clock is sent through the Doepfer Clock Divider and onwards to drive the Telephone Game, which modulates a whole lot of stuff lot with its five S&H outputs. One thing is the Tidal Wave's clock LFO speed, resulting in rhythm changes. The Telephone Game also provides pitch CV for the Tidal Wave and modulation for the wave shaper and wet/dry mix. S&H input for the Telephone Game is sent from the Kitty Eyes chaos, which is CV-controlled via the Telephone Game's clock division output.

The Ardcore Bit Beats Sketch* receives the clock and creates a binary pattern, outputting lo-fi chiptune audio and two trigger sequences. One resets one of the Zone B.F. LFOs and the other triggers the Kick_Me, which is not heard, but which's two audio outputs modulate the Tidal Wave sound and the Dual Multiplier.

The Dual Multiplier modulates audio from the Dronebank OSCs, which run through the Eternal Spring Filter (modulated by the Telephone Game and Zone B.F.) and through the Hi_Gain, which also mixes some of the Tidal Wave's VCF output in there.

Then there is some Noise from the Telephone Game coming and going and some cross-modulation between Dronebank oscillators and that's pretty much it. :)

Snazzy FX Drone Music Performance #TTNM


Published on Jan 18, 2018 The Tuesday Night Machines

"Another live jam with my Snazzy FX Eurorack system. All sounds from Snazzy modules, going though a Doepfer mixer and a Klangbau Köln Spring Reverb.

---------

PixelNoises Synth T-Shirts by The Tuesday Night Machines:

There is a lot going on. I use my Ardcore sketches 'Dirty Mirror' and 'Bit Beats' for modulation and audio. Dronebank oscillators go through the Eternal Spring and Hi_Gain, which are being modulated by the three chaos modules. The chaos modules themselves are modulated by the Ardcores and Telephone game and then there is the Tidal Wave too, acting as a liquiddy filter and the Wow and Flutter for Delay and ... well ... it's all just a big hot mess.
