"Here is a photo of some of my modular setup: On top left a custom walnut Minimoog/modular with center modules DIY, bringing out the patch points on the Mini, with bottom row in MOTM format. Below a Moog Voyager. On top right a Roland System 100m on top of a 1969 Moog 1P. Below a NED Synclavier II on top of a Hammond L-100 chopper."

Reactable en CampusParty Valencia 2008

"The reacTable in campusbot, campusparty, Valencia 2008 specifications, collaborative electronic musical instrument with a tangible interface based on a table, and inspired by modular synthesizers of the sixties. It was developed by the Music Technology Group at the University Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, a research team composed of Sergi Jordà, Marcos Alonso, Günter Geiger and Martin Kaltenbrunner. Multiple simultaneous users share total control over the instrument by moving and rotating physical objects on the surface of a bright circular table. Manipulating these objects, representatives of the classical components of a modular synthesizer, users can create complex and dynamic sound typologies, generators, filters and modulators, in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer. There are only 5 reacTable, which included it was sold to Icelandic singer Bjork."

Messing around with old PAIA, Doepfer and Mobius

"Messing around with my finally integrated Eurorack modular and Paia 2700/4700 using the Mobius sequencer. Paia oscillators, filters, and vca's. Doepfer mixer and envelope generator. Livewire Vulcan modulating one filter. PAIA lfo the other. The two oscillators are out of tune at first, but they are mostly brought into tune after a little bit of adjustment from the transposer module."

HarriL - Temporary Patten(Live)

video upload by HarriL

"This is most likely the fastest tracks I've made for a video. The time it took to make this was about an hour. Evolver sequenced from the EMX, Revolution through ESX's effects.

Nothing much to say, it's a chill track made just because I've had such a long pause in uploading anything new. I'm still making new stuff, but never really got around recording them into a full track.

I just might do a video of a selection of unfinished patterns that I have made during the years."

The Amazing Klee Sequencer 1

"Here's a short demonstration of some of the features of this new sequencer. I'm controlling 3 voices with it - all MOTM 300 vco's through various filters and vcas. All in real time with no input from other sources. The sound quality's not the greatest - just using the camera mike - I had the monitors up pretty loud but the sequencer was closer so there's still sound from the switches. You can find out more about this sequencer at electro-music.com - go to the forums, and look for the klee section in the diy area."

Another Odd PlanB Modular Synth Patch

"Don't ask what I did, I don't remember exactly, but there was FM involved, ring modulation and wave shaping, the M25 Voltage processor being used as an audio mixer, Delay feedback from and through the Moogerfooger 104z, and VC of the M10 which was self cycling and being triggered by the Model 28. I was trying to get something that reminded me of a Serge type sound. I don't think I was quite successful, I need more modules to get closer.

I also recorded a second track of audio through the Roland Space Echo, but this track is dry, nothing added in the computer, not even compression, just analog compression through the Urei LA-22 during recording."
