Fourier Synthesizer

Anyone know what this is?

via Synthesizer-Magazin.

Update via cornutt in the comments and confirmed by Moogulator: "I see a Pasco logo at the bottom right. Pasco Scientific makes instruments and lab equipment for classroom use. They've got some interesting things on their Web site like lab power supplies, function generators, ripple tanks, and decade boxes. This box was probably used with a scope to teach students about Fourier analysis and sum-of-sines."

Furious LFCO (low freq. chaotic oscillator)

This one in via Gerald:
"In this one, X is modulating a CGS Bi-N-Tic filter, X-dot-dot is modulating a Blacet StonZ phaser, and X-dot is modulating the mix of these two sources. A Bleep Labs Thingamagoop is hanging out, communicating on some primal level with the oscilloscope. Unfortunately, his squelches aren't audible this time - he's just there to look ultra-cool.More details / schematics, and a PCB layout at: link."

Another video:

"A video, and some audio recorded later of the Furious Low Frequency Chaotic Oscillator. The audio is of the x and x-dot-dot outputs modulating a lowpass and bandpass filter respectively, while the x-dot (first derivative) mods the PW of a square-wave. The freak knob is adjusted, then the offset knob."

M-Electroworks Samples

Remember the M-Electroworks? Title link takes you to samples and a bigger shot.

"Hi Matrix,here as promised some 18 soundsamples made with the new M-electrowork modules. They where directly recorded onto an Tascam Pro CDR without any processing and next converted to mp3 in the PC. On some I have used an Roland 104 Sequencer. There is still no website ATM, but for any questions abouth price or ordering there is an e-mail (change [AT] to @)."

DSPaudio Nortron

Soft synth version of the Latronic Notron. Note the extra "r."
Mac only.

"A software sequencer inspired by classic hardware, Nortron goes further into new sequencing dimensions while retaining tight timing, quick navigation, and instrument like playability. Through IAC and CoreMIDI, Nortron controls Softsynths and standard MIDI devices. Nortron breathes new life into old instruments and otherwise dull synthesizers by playing them in ways not previously possible."

16 Step Sequencer from Music From Outer Space

Via the man himself, Ray Wilson, on AH: "Sequencer boards are back (new and improved)"

Features
Improved PC board (far less kludging).
Produces sequences of 4 to 16 steps in length
Modes include stop at count, reverse at count,
reset at count and random 16 mode
Each step has switchable gate/trigger
Accepts external clock and start pulse.
Simultaneous outputs with and without portamento.
Forward and Back step controls ease sequence set up.
