"It's a sequencer based on the Seku by Mauno Tuominen (link).

The whole thing started of as an idea to build a simple gate sequencer using only CMOS. I thought that by using just 2 4017 and some logic I could get it all to work. But after some trial and error - that just resulted in failure. I gave it up.. (The basic problem was that I never got it to reset at the right step. It was either to early or to late..) ..and decided to build the Seku instead.

I'm not sure I'm gonna get it all to work. But the LEDs light up fine (except for LED 6 and 16 which I have the wrong way around..). I'm gonna try the CV portion out tomorrow, and I hope I'm able to finish the gates aswell."

New Blofeld Firmware v1.02 and Soundset

via Wolfram Franke on the Waldorf list:

"we just released V1.02 of the Blofeld Firmware. It addresses the bugs you've reported. Here's the excerpt from the changelog:

V1.02 Hotfix 080225
-----------------------
This version is a hotfix addressing bugs reported by our users.

Improvements:
* Increased Output Volume by 12dB.
* Fixed spurious problems with Sound selection when Category Filters
are used.
* Fixed storage problems of received sound dumps which showed "Init"
or "Init!" sounds.
* Fixed further spurious occurences of "Init" or "Init!" sounds.
* Improved voice allocation with Unisono sounds.

Known issues:
* Changing sound volumes during playback over MIDI might result in
loud sounds for held notes. New notes are played with the correct
volume. This happens with sounds that use additional volume modulation
i.e. by Velocity.
* Booting the Blofeld might result in a freeze when USB is connected and a
sequencer application (i.e. Logic 7 or 8) is open. Logic, for example,
sends certain MIDI messages to a new MIDI Port as soon as it appears.

I normally don't put up posts on videos that disable embedding, but I'm curious if anyone out there knows what this one is. You can find the video here. I'm giving this one a DIY label for now. There's also an iPod sitting on the keyboard controller. If anyone knows more about this one, feel free to comment or shoot me an email.

Update: one more embeddable video via HorstNeudorf in the comments:
