PEARL DRUM-X ANALOG DRUM SYNTHESIZER


via this auction

"PEARL DRUM-X analog programmable electronic drum synth module internal memory contains 8 kits each 5 pads=total 40sounds! made in Japan 1980's.

PEARL DRUM-X is early programmable analog electronic drums module in 80's internal memory contains 8 kits each 5 pads=total 40sounds! each kit has SNARE, BASS, TOM1, TOM2, TOM3 parameter has PITCH,BEND,OSC/NOISE,OVERTONE,ATTACK,FILTER,DECAY,LEVEL IN&OUT is 5 pad trigger in,5 separate out and mix out,stereo line in,kit select in, ext trigger in this one has no MIDI(it came from before MIDI era), so you need drum pad with trigger or drum machine that has trigger out(TR-606,TR-808 etc..)

DRUM-X has many tweakable parameters so it's very easy to create various unique sounds DRUM-X's sound character is very fat & warm analog synth sound! sound character is totally different from SIMMONS's sound(I feel more soft character) I specially recommend it's noisy dark tone character"

Phantastron Under Test


YouTube via sheepslinky. Audio comes in around :26.
"The phantastron is an Electric Western instrument available as a kit or complete instrument. It is all vacuum tube, and inspired by electronic music and cybernetic computer designs of the 1930s-1960s. www.electricwestern.com"

Arduino Noise Maker


Arduino Noise Maker from James Taylor on Vimeo.
"First running complete circuit - similar to that of Little - scale on Blog Spot. This is actually the second version because we had massive problems sourcing the components needed, and we tried using a second Arduino board to clone the missing chips.

In this one however, the main noise is being outputted to the Breadboard via 6 lines into a 6 bit R2R DAC.

The schmitt triggers are mounted on a nuelectronics arduino board, which controls the vibrato and the wave selector units. The two extra pots on the breadboard are the pitch and speed selection pots.

Stay tuned for more - next version promises to have some midi integration!

YouTube via ffoitl. via Music Thing.
"during my 11 days at STEIM i did a working prototype of the second incarnation of the "speakingObject" (no better title still). it's basically a vocal synthesizer controlled by two buttons and a three axis accelerometer. it works without a computer. the two wires are just power and sound out. the finished object will work on batteries and include an amp plus speaker so there will be no wires at all.

"Billy Kihei showing off his diode-ladder filter

The two Sallen-Key projects (by Thomas and Fojas) allow relatively conservative amounts of feedback. This could be relaxed to allow higher Q values by putting some sort of clipping in the feedback loop, as is done in the various variants of the Korg MS-20 filter. (Without such clipping, the filter goes insane with high amounts of feedback.)"
