FreqBox vs Virus Pt-02 (Toys 'n Noise)


YouTube via Analogger. Follow up to this post.
"This time I put the FreqBox thru the Lowpass Filter. Again into the Access Virus. A Roland MPU-101 gated the Virus and also step modulated the oscillator frequency on the FreqBox. I put the osc in both "synced" and "non-synced" modes. I basically just hit the low E string on my guitar with a couple other notes thrown in when I wasn't twisting knobs. The rhythm pattern comes from my sequencer which is triggering the Virus. The Virus is set to "external input" so there is no internal sound...just that which is being fed into it from the FreqBox."

"hand built Analog sequencer synthesizer created by Alfredo Aliaga for Atomo Labs.

This synth features one square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound

One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds.

White noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds.

8 step Sequencer with note on/off switch and pitch knob for each step

It features a 1/4 inch audio output, 1/4 inch CV Output (to control other analog gear), 1/4 inch Clock input (gate in, to sync whit an external analog clock, like another analog sequencer), 1/4 inch Gate/clock output.(to sync whit other analog gear using the Mochika's internal clock)

Also the instrument is ligthed with 2 red ultra bright leds that indicates the LFO and Sequencer Rate, and 8 red ultra bright leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage.

The Analog Sequencer is packed in a cool cristal acrilic case that shows all the hand made analog circuitry.

The instrument is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC, rubber feet, and comes with operation manual.

Dimensions: 9 inch(W), 7 inch(D), 3 1/4 inch(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)"
