Cwejman S1 MK2: DJ Puzzle Examines A Semi-Modular Monophonic

YouTube via DjPuzzle73
"DJ Puzzle, known to his parents as Jason Donnelly, starts this video off by pronouncing one of the most awkward looking brand names in synthesis before showing us how to make a sine wave bassline with the Cwejman S1 MK2.

I made a sine wave bassline in second grade art class out of glue, macaroni, and glitter, but if you prefer to make them with semi-modular, monophonic, analog synths, you should probably stop reading this and watch the video.

Seriously, you have no choice because this is the last sentence."

A Brief Conversation Resulting in One Less Child

YouTube via stretta
"This is an early prototype of Josh Boughey's stribe project. I'm attempting to write some software to turn the hardware into a musical instrument.

After a few nights of communicating with the firmware to light up LEDs in a meaningful manner, I switched gears and created a quick application that would hopefully result in a musical statement, albeit without the LED feedback I'm looking for. I'm still working on this.

If you're interested in what the stribe is, more information can be found here:

The software I'm using was created in Max, you can download the software at:
