So the big question is - would this one technically be safe for work? :)

Bana Nah Nah Nah - The Banana Rap Song

YouTube via PhotoAnimationGuy
via nadafarms on VSE: "I made this with a Jomox xbase-999 and a Moog LP in Ableton. I want to start making videos like these for bands... I use Flash. Yes I'm insane."

Laser Harp Fully Functional

YouTube via shobley. Update: see this post for how he did it an more.
"Finally got the bugs worked out with the sensor. The harp is connected to the impOSCar VSTi software synthesizer, the TAOS sensor array sits on the floor in it's own stand. The array above the harp i is just made up of fs mirrors for added p'zazz. (www.stephenhobley.com)"

A rare glimpse at the PPG PRK Processorkeyboard. I'll see if I can find out what it's controlling. If you know feel free to comment.

Update: I should have checked my own forum before putting up this post. No info on what the PRK is driving, but some nice pics of the PPG PRK Processor Keyboard here. Also mirrored here.
Update: Accroding to intercorni on the forum, it is controlling the Wave 2.2.

Aubergine-Dream

"Recorded 26 Jan 2008 live
Produced on the SNO portable analog modular synthesizer system, comprised (mostly) of Wiard modules and DIY gadgets"

via drmabuse's spurious transmissions

via drmabuce on the Wiard list:
"There are 6 separate voices and i made notes on the patching of all the audio paths.

A few general notes i'd like to share about this piece:

-everything you hear is the synth rig. There is no drum machine in this mix

-the lowest-pitched (non-ostinato) bass voice is produced by the Noise Ring

-i augmented the SNO for that performance with my Omni Filter and a spring reverb (hacked out of a hammond organ and coupled to a VCA) i also brought a DIY dual VC-lag processor. (more on that in a minute)

-No postproduction FX were added nor were any edits made in post. It is a straight-off-the-board mix.

-The legato sections at the beginning, the break, and at the end are created with the following patch: Sample-Hold -mult> VC-lag (exponential)->Paia VCO1->Omni Filter
-mult> VC-lag (linear)-Paia VCO2-----/
The effect is that while traveling from pitch to pitch the VCO's follow different curves that take them in and out of tune along the way. i love this effect. It's use was suggested to me by prof. Richter. The lag processors are DIY, based on Electronotes designs and Grant was kind enough to offer me a lot of advice on implementing the ideas that the venerable Bernie Hutchins published. Thus the legato glides, while containing no direct Wiard content, could be considered Wiard by adoption.

i feel this piece is a little more representative of the actual sound of the SNO in live performance than the piece i posted previously.
