diamond skeleton fx sub-octave synthesizer demo

YouTube via diamondskeletonfx
"http://www.diamondskeleton.com/ psychedelic hand made effects
the first half is with the filter on and im just kind of going a bit crazy and making noise and twisting knobs on the guitar (sorry it went for so long. i like making noise) and the second half is with the filter switch off with 1 octave down. the cameras memory filled up before i got to show much with 2 octaves down. at 2:20 im playing 2 notes at once with plain octave down setting to get that wobbly tremolo sound."

Atmel Project AVR Full Color Game Console (Only two chips used!)

YouTube via uze6666. Click on the AvrX label below for more. via ladyada's ranting where you'll find a pic and some more info. ladyada is the woman behind the x0xb0x.
"The Uzebox is a home made game console based on an Atmel AVR microcontroller. The design goal was to be simple to assemble for any hobbyist and great sound and graphics with absolute minimum hardware: an AtMega644 microcontroller, an AD725 RGB-to-NTSC converter...and a bunch of resistors!

You get 256 simultaneous colors, 240x224 (40x28 tiles) graphics, a 4 channels sound engine with MIDI driver, NES joysticks ports and a MIDI IN input to compose your own songs straight on the console. The kernel is fully interrupt driven to generates video sync, mix music, read joypads, etc. so games can be written in plain C, no insane cycle counting required :D !

Considering this a 8-bit general purpose microcontroller with only 4K of RAM and 64k of ROM (and no external RAM or frame buffer), it was quite a challenge to cram all that stuff in there. The site will soon have the schematic. All code will be open source and the hardware well...open hardware!

For now, I've completed a Tetris DS clone for the console.

Enjoy!

Another Crappy Modular Video

YouTube via dkimcg
"This was from a patch yesterday. Using the Harvestman VCF to generate a tone, which is then F'ed up in the Tyme Sefari, which adds a really nice fatness to the original tone. So, all audio by the Harvestman, All control by PlanB M28, M17, M10,M24, etc. Not a musical thing, just figuring out the Tyme Sefari for shaping tone."

Roland Jupiter 6 Europa Demo

YouTube via b3nsf
"This Roland Jupiter 6 was bought by my dad in NYC, years later the battery died making it a horrendous chore to use.. I bought the Europa mod and my buddy Judah did the soldering... it turned out great! Then I added Synth Wood side panels...Love them! Here is me (filming) and my buddy Aaron (playing) testing out the restored "factory presets" ... I know presets are usually terrible, I enjoy these because when the battery died, the synth was very hard to work with... I still have a dead battery in my jupiter, but the Europa mod stores its patches in flash.. later, ben"
