Pulse Monger demo

YouTube via synthmonger
"This is a quick demo of my Pulse Monger pedal. A limited run of the Pulse Mongers will include an internal LFO. Later versions won't but I plan on building a control processor (that's very different than Moog's) to make up for that. ;D

Here is a description of what's going on in the video

00:19 Fundamental pulse width knob is turned from fully CCW to fully CW and back again.
00:50 Mix knob goes from full Fundamental all the way to full sub-octave
00:59 Sub-octave pulse width is turned from fully CCW to CW and back again
01:15 Blend knob is set to noon (equal fundamental and sub-octave mix)
01:24 Fundamental and sub-octave pulse width knobs are adjusted from CCW to CW and back again.
02:54 Different settings are played with
03:38 The LFO is introduced at a standard triangle wave at a slow speed then high. LFO is then set to falling ramp wave from slow to fast speed, then the shape is set to rising ramp wave from slow to fast speed. Different settings are then played with.

Thanks to Leon Burnside for testing it out! ;D

**Extra notes**
This pedal has a high Overdrive type gain while it remains very quite. No background hiss or that mumbo jumbo.

The sub-octave tracks best with non-buzzy pickups. A perfectly clean line level signal sounds best.

The sub octave is great for solos and so-so for chords. Only strings parallel to one another come out clean. Otherwise it'll rattle and rumble like all non-digital octave pedals.

If you're after a truly unique fuzzy, synthy, squarey, polyphonicy and sub-octavey pedal then stay tuned as I'll have these in production soon!"

This one is probably Not Safe For Work, although I did work with a guy with tons of scantily clad images of Britney Spears on his wall for months and he got away with it.

Roland TR-909 with ver 4 EPROM

images via this auction

"Most 909s have v.1, I should know as I've owned 3 of these beasts.
The v.1 eprom causes sync IN issues with MIDI and DIN sync... in "slave" mode.
With the version 4 installed, ALL sync issues are fixed. Just search the web and read for yourself.
Again, this 909 has version 4... installed.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM"

Isidore v1.4

YouTube via DamagedMeat
"Messing around with Isidore the robot.

This video is a demonstration of the latest version of Isidore with a screen in the head displaying waveforms and Lissajou shapes comin' out from the MFB Videoscope module.

All sounds by Doepfer A100 except micromoog bass in the 1st part and little melody in the 2nd one. The theme is played live by the A100, MIDI sequenced by a protools. The red and white lights are controlled by MIDI and CV.

Feel free to rate and comment.
Txs to my mate Louis for the shooting.

Next version of Isidore will feature vocoder and lighting mouth, weee !
Stay tuned !§"
