Devine Machine - Krishna Synth - Frame Synthesis

"The Krishna Synth has been designed to be a versatile instrument for both performance and studio recording. Its stunning new Frame Synthesis lets you import and build sounds from sampled instruments and synth waveforms—then modify the nature of those sounds through a huge set of DSP functions.

Krishna Synth introduces a new type of oscillator called 'Frame Oscillator', that works together with Frame Analysis Technology (F.A.T.).

Beside the Frame Oscillator, Krishna Synth provides 2 Analog Oscillators, created to emulate old vintage synthetizers, with optional 'oldness' factor and desync, which can bring life to your tunes instantly.

Five LFOs are built-in, with total routing capabilities, including midi out. They can also be used as additional oscillators to offer unlimited sound creation.

The on-board digital effects processor includes a Tube distortion with customizable cabinet size and frequency, and a High Quality Effect Chain with Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Delay and Reverb, fully parametrable in depth, and easy to use at the same time.

Everything in Krishna Synth can sync to your host. Every control will follow your BPM, unless you want something different.

All play modes are possible: Legato, Mono, Unison with Pitch detune, Phase delay, but also random options, Time or Distance Portamento, Build-in Hold implementation, Distinct up and down values for Pitchbend range, as well as distinct up and down speed for it and many other options that you would be happy to see in other synths!"

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 and I'm guessing Simmons electronic drums. His voice reminds me of Gary Numan. I never heard of The Twins in the 80s. Thompson Twins yes, but not The Twins.

Quad NAND Gate - synth, the Nandsynth

"This experiment is based on an example in Nicolas Collins’ book: “Handmade Electronic Music, The Art of Hardware Hacking”. The motivation for this experiment is to learn IC logic chips and to prepare inexpensive experiments for sound making electronics workshops. This is a first version, please be aware of possible errors. All corrections and contributions for improvement are highly appreciated. This post will be updated."

Title link takes you to AudioLemon a relatively new blog on gear and electronic music.

"I teach Music Technology in a small college in Ireland so I mostly use this just to inform my students about gear, electronic music and things I am interested in. Also I do a half hour show on the radio about Music Tech news so I update the website with things I talk about on the radio (for example free software). I try where possible to relate my blogs to Ireland so I talk about IMRO (irish royalty collection agencies) and Irish electonic events like DEAF. I always direct my students to your website [Matrixsynth] as a great source of information."

You'll find a ton of great content currently up including this Sesame Street classic possibly featuring the Minimoog for audio. I actually remember it!
