FM synthesis with the PlanB Model 15


YouTube via dkimcg
"Apologies in advance for the out of focus camera. This was one of the cool things I learned about using the PlanB (or any capable) oscillators. I have the oscilloscope up so you can see the waveforms. Too bad I didn't keep an eye on the camera. But I do these for fun, and doing it again would be no fun for me. But you can see enough to get the idea. You can get some very fat sounds with harmonic overtones this way. Look up FM synthesis if you're curious. That's frequency modulation. There's also another video on youtube that goes through the explanations better, this is just to show an example, not inform."

Opcode Studio 5 LX

images via Mark via this electro-music.com thread (note this is for sale): "The OpcodeStudio 5LX is a Macintosh MIDI interface. Bitd, this was a monster. It has twice the computing power of a Mac Plus , 256KB of RAM for internal patch storage, 15 MIDI inputs and 15 MIDI outputs. It has two foot switch inputs, a foot pedal input that also accepts logarithmic CV, SMPTE in and out, and an input to sync to audio.

Apparently, some people have been able to get it to work as an interface with OS X. Please take a look on the web. It can also be configured as an extremely powerful stand-alone patchbay/filter with any Mac that can run OS 9, 8, or 7. It can filter, merge, re-channel, split by note and velocity, re-assign and modify control values, etc. It can route MIDI data from any combination of inputs and internal programs to any output. These patches can then be recalled via program change.

This unit has been upgraded to the latest ROM, and includes the original ROM chips, original box, software discs, and all the manuals. It is in excellent cosmetic condition. I'm the original owner, and it worked perfectly the last time I used it, but I have no way to test it now.

Questions and comments welcome.
