Hand-assembled Shruthi-1 - SSM2044 filter

via this auction, cutie.
"This is brand new music synthesizer of mutabile instruments top brand. Synthesizer goes by the sissy name of Luxette, and is of well-respected Shruthi royal family. Unknown color, unable to determine: shiny look, red when looked from right, blue when looked from left, yellow and green when looked from top. Not unlike soap bubble at all or visiting angels from faraway suns. Hencefore warning: scares birds - all kinds of birds specifically vengeful birds! Some parts are of static color: Touchable extremites are darkness and citrus. Rectangular 32-symbols writing area is of same colour as orange-froot, and shiny dots of enlightment that go blink-blink are orange-coloured too. Rooftop of electric music synthesizer can be removed to reveal circuit of colour of dark forces. To ensure maximal cooperation rooftop should not be left open for normal operation, cutie.

Vibrations are above 20 hz and below 18kHz as perceptible by human auditory organs. Emits audio vibrations not suitable for dogs and house ferrets. Emits song of indian accordion, song of japanese fairy violin, song of african sitar, song of irish pagan seductress flute, and song of american ghetto beat box. May emit voice of universally acclaimed composer Emirson Lake Palmeer. Awesome beauty for Duran Duran karaoke too, had a blast with Sharmila Lady-fox the other day on chauffeur song. Does not emit though song of galactic spaceship fleet, song of baby faced by imminent danger, song of mother nation working towards visionary goal, song of purest mathematical abstraction, and soundtrack of enamoured tapir. Sorry for that. Now come here and let the voice of Shruthi entice you. Come closer, come closer and see the kaleidoscope spiral, cutie.

Shruthi synthesizer device does not have two voices, three voices, four voices, or thirty-two voices even, no, no, no: have one glorious voice, but wise proverb says unicorns have one mighty horn too, unlike polycorns. Comes with shiny expensive electronical components shaped like candy pills, shaped like baby spider, shaped like blue-faced deity of vedic times, and first class, top rate, award-winning music filtering spider from SSM company of decadent usa, model reference number 2044. Good for your prosperity, your health and successful wife, but still not good enough for the enamoured tapir sound. Might be okey-dokey for smitten capybara or infatuated alpaca sounds. Dunno-dunno, cutie.

Does have multiple endearing menus on the board, great variety and first rate selection of options from all eras : vibrating strings, filtration, the little algebraic curves that go up and down and up and down forever or just once, interconnections, device that makes musical progression when single key of input device is pressed to emulate well-respected performer of great skills, 64 kbits of memory for the sounds of your wicked conception. Does have little hole on the back to insert sound-trunk-appendage, hencefore songs recorded from microphone, videocassette or educational organ are slowly traveling through Shruthi filtering spider. Does have pair of medium-sized holes with 5 little holes for entrance and exit of so-called "Music Interchange Data Inlet". Come and plug your keyboard instrument, cutie.

Does not have moving part that goes schwiiin schwiiiiin when rainy weather! Does not come with snorkeling equipment for underwater exploration! Does not have matching towel! Does not have off/on/sleep contraption! Output magnitude is eternally programmed to auspicious value of 8.537. Move your ears more more far away from loudspeaker for softer, mellower, little ball of fur song. Comes with energy coupling device suitable for insurgent democratic countries of Westeuropa, voltage label says nine. Can work with other house-hold energy coupling device of other countries, insurgent, decadent or glorious. I think this is all you need to know, cutie."

Shruthi-1 new features

YouTube via mutableinstruments — June 20, 2010 — "A boring videos that only die-hard Shruti-1 users will probably enjoy... Features a bunch of new UI things:
- snap mode for knobs
- display settings
- encoder navigation and editing
- and a quick tour of the new sequencer pages"

Just fooling around with 2 polychained Shruthi and some of the presets

"mutableinstruments — June 20, 2010 — The Shruthi-1 is a re-engineered and spec'ed up version of the Shruti-1, with a choice of different boards for the analogue section. This time we won't say that we've ran out of vintage ICs, since it can work without (indeed the filter board used for this video only uses modern and widely available ICs) ... But if you have vintage IC, we'll have a filter board for that!

Lame video quality, lame keyboard action, but shruthiesque sounds and epic platypus takeoff!"
