Yamaha CS-5

Note the dash in CS-5. I think Yamaha is probably the most inconsistent when it comes to the use of dashes in their model names.

TSP Teaspoon as gate keeper = hang on

YouTube via thetonewrecker
"I decided to try feeding the gate signal from the Acidlab Bassline to control the MC-202, but feed it through the Teaspoon. The CV control for the pitch passes directly, but now I can control the resampling/repeats of the 202 playing back the pitch it is following from the Acidlab. I really like how it grabs part of the trigger pulse and you get these strange clunky chugging retriggers. The 202 is not the best synth to trigger externally since the CV and gate go through the digital section before it hits the analog synth , but it was what I had on hand. More soon."

MIDIBox of the Week

via MIDIbox.org
"This unit is now a stereo sid v.2 (6582A + 8580R5), control surface C (a few things weren't used: play button, volume on the modulation matrix,...). The design was created with adobe illustrator then printed on vinyl sticker, box is a Retex#5, PCBs are from SmashTV, and knobs are from ALBS (thank you Goblinz !). The work cost me roughly 350€, but because I'm a beginner I burnt a few things... This is far from perfect: the inside is full of cables, the printed sticker is 1mm much longer than the drilled surface, knobs aren't as close of the surface as I wanted, ... but it works !" via sendling.
