Youscope (oscilloscope demo)

video upload by tejeez

"a demo using an oscilloscope to display something. It was third in assembly 2007 shortfilm compo, and won altparty's most original demo prize. The oscilloscope is connected to PC soundcard and is in X/Y-mode, with right channel connected to X and left to Y input."
Title link takes you to more info. Via HarriL "There's a link to a youtube video in that page.
The video was made by a 16-year Finnish boy (tejeez), for a demoparty called 'Assembly' (www.assembly.org). It's basically an audiofile(available for download from the koodaa.mine.nu-page) being played from the computer into the oscilloscope. the soundtrack was obviously added later."

MDCB60 Midi kit for JUNO60

Remember the Dtronics MDM60? It looks like it is now available.

"This unit fits inside your JUNO60 and replaces the DCB plug with a MIDI-in and MIDI-out plug.
Installation is simple:
Open the Juno, disconnect the DCB plug, connect the MDCB60 plug
Replace the DCB-plug with the MDCB-bracket and your done!!

So, What does it do?

It converts the Juno DCB signal to a midi signal, So you can use the Juno midi-out to control other midi devices.
It only sends out midi-on and midi-off messages.

It also converts midi to DCB, now you can use the Juno as a sound module and play the Juno with your sequencer.
It only converts midi-on and midi-off messages, no other things as control messages or program-change and pitch control.

You can select the midi channel (IN and OUT) with a simple dip-switch.

We designed this internal interface as a simple and cheap midi-dcb converter.
If you need more features than only playing notes than you should find another (more expensive) midi-dcb converter.
For more information, please visit this products webpage."

Nebula HS Reverb (Hispasonic Edition) is a free version of Nebula with 18 exclusive reverb presets made by Jorge Ruiz, commemorating the new look of Hispasonic.com, the biggest website and community around musical creation & production in spanish. Here you can download it for free!

We have also published a quick tutorial in spanish for Nebula HS Reverb. Here you have the Google-translated version."
