Perfect Circuit Plays PATCH THE CARD GAME w/ the Make Noise Shared System


video by Perfect Circuit

"In this video, our Patch Pals Wes and Jacob try out Patch The Card Game, the modular-focused card game designed to inspire new and creative ways to patch your system. Developed by modular mogul James Cigler, the first volume of Patch TCG provides three types of cards to help craft patches and make changes ranging from subtle to drastic. Abstraction cards tend to provide a starting point for a new patch or add in a substantial element, while Progression and Disruption cards respectively signify small and large modifications to shake things up.

Because of it’s fairly open-ended approach, there are no hard rulesets or highly specific ways to play Patch TCG, and it totally facilitates single or multiplayer experiences. Wes and Jacob are using the Make Noise Black & Gold Shared System Plus in this particular video, but the cards are designed to work with any kind of patchable modular synthesizer.

"What started as a tool created to expand my own skills and creativity with the modular, became something even better. Something that anyone with a modular could use to do the same, in flexible and unique ways, tailored to their needs. I’m excited to have made something that can help the entire modular community grow their skills and connections to what I think is the most personal and expressive instrument available to musicians."

Stylophone Business Card


Published on May 5, 2018 mitxela


via MIXTELA.COM, via @fabmass aka bĂ–sch.

"Printed Circuit Boards as a business card are a great gimmick. I'd seen ones with USB ports etched into them, which enumerate as a keyboard and then type a person's name or load up their website. It's just about possible to build them cheap enough to hand out as a business card, at least if you're picky about who you give them to.

A couple of years ago I took a stab at making one for myself, but I didn't want it to be pointless. I wanted it to do something useful! Or at least entertain someone for longer than a few seconds. I can't remember quite how I got the idea of making a MIDI-stylophone, but the idea was perfect. A working midi controller, that's unique enough in its playing characteristic to potentially give some value, while at the same time costing no more than the card would have done otherwise, since the keyboard is just a plated area on the PCB, as is true on the original stylophone..."

Containing 52 classic synths, 12 categories, and specially commissioned images, Vintage Synth Trumps 2 is the perfect way for synth-nerds to test their own knowledge and settle synth arguments once and for all with the synth-spotter's equivalent of an arm wrestling contest."

GForce Software Vintage Synth Trump Cards


I actually posted about these way back in 2005. Mark spotted them on the GForce site and sent the link in. I thought I'd put a new post up and capture the list of synths and description for the archives. BTW, also check out this post for some Roland info cards.

"Vintage Synth Trumps

This is Vintage Synth Trumps, a deadly serious card game for vintage synth enthusiasts featuring 52 classic instruments. Test your knowledge and settle those arguments once and for all with the synth-spotter's equivalent of arm-wrestling.

Can you use your skill and judgment to win the whole pack from your opponents and become the undisputed champion of vintage synth wisdom?

Playing is easy. Simply divide the cards between the number of players before taking it in turns to read aloud a statistic from your card.

For example, "Korg PS3300 - Collectability = 5 out of 5". Everyone then compares the card on the top of their hand and the highest scoring instrument in that category wins that round. The person who gains all the cards wins.

So next time your kids pester you for a card game, extract revenge with Vintage Synth Trumps (not available from any good department stores near you).

The perfect kitsch gift for trade shows, long flights, forum banter, pub quizzes, train journeys and all round anorak type showing-off.

Buy your pack of Vintage Synth Trumps for only £7.95 (price includes first class postage, other methods available)
