Blip Festival Reformat the Planet: Chapter 01


"It started with sequencing 8-bit chipsets on Nintendo Game Boys, but the Chiptune scene has now expanded well beyond game systems. Directed by Paul Owens, Reformat the Planet is the essential introduction to this awesome new genre, and proves it's more than just a blip.

Buchla 700 Preservation Page

The page includes newly added source code for the Buchla 700: "Source code for the Buchla 700, courtesy Lynx Crowe. This code is provided as-is with no guarantees of completeness or correctness; it's a compilation of various bits of relevant code that Lynx found going through his archives. If you want to delve into this, you are "on your own." Development was done with an Alcyon C compiler on an Atari 1040ST, although it should be feasible to find a modern compiler that will handle this code. Knowledgeable people with time on their hands could potentially do all sorts of neat things with this, such as (a) create some sort of hardware/software upgrade to the 700 that would allow users to bypass the trouble-prone and difficult-to-find video chip, (b) add features to and fix bugs in the software, and (c) create a softsynth rendition of the 700. It's also a fantastic chance to look at the design of a synth OS by one of the pioneers in the field. Please give Lynx proper acknowledgement on anything you do this this. If you have any commercial aspirations, i.e. you plan to actually sell anything based on this, you should contact Lynx to talk about some sort of licensing arrangement."

Moogerfoogers + PlanB Through The FutureRetro Revolution


YouTube via dkimcg
"Viva La Pierre et Jered et Robert!

Left channel is everything through the Future Retro Revolution, right channels is that plus the Space Echo. Straight in, no digital effects. The FRR sends out VC to the Moog Freqbox through the Moog RingMod, into the FM of the two M15s, which FM each other some more, which send audio into the Evil Twin which is FMed some more by the 2nd M15. The FRR Gate CVs are used to generate more enevlopes from the M10 and the Paia envelopes and saw LFO. There's a few signals mixed in the M25 and send back to the CV input on the Revolution which does the final moduations and filtering..."

Modular Pattern Generator ( with thanks to Yamaha! )

"I have used the analogue percussion section from an old Yamaha PS-3 keyboard. This is connected via opto-isolators to my pattern generator, which is a touchscreen based unit, based on an AT Mega cpu.. it took ages to program!"

StratoJam in E minor w/ ModFactor, Echolution


YouTube via Analogger
"This began when I strummed an e minor chord and looped it with my Pigtronix Echolution. I started playing some chords on top of it with my old Yamaha 12 string and it just built from there. I put the loop thru the Modfactor filter mod using the high pass mode.

Bass drum from the Jomox MBase. The Evolver was used for bass and synth lead. My EMG equipped strat did everything else."
