Tyme Sefari as a bit reduced CV recorder

YouTube via dkimcg
"I tried using the Harvestman Tyme Sefari as a CV recording module a little more seriously last night. I was able to get it to record some LFOs that sounded rhythmic and have the frequency CV of the Tyme Sefari control the playback rate of the recorded gesture. Too bad I didn't record it, because it sounded better than what you're watching. This video is purely technical experimentation, it kind of annoys me actually, which might be good. I have the TS record the Dalek Modulator which is being modulated by the Dual Cyclotron. The CV if the ringmod out of the Dalek is recorded by the Tyme Sefari, and the DLY out send it off to the PlanB Model 15's FM input, fully cranked most the time. The CV's also sent to the Polivoks filter's frequency CV input and attenuated. That goes through the M13 and is controlled by the M10 which is triggered by the M24 Heisenberg. The M10 also triggers the playback of the Tyme Sefari at points in the video too. The Heisenberg is also sending the stepped output into the Tyme Sefari. Finally, the LFO is turning on and off the recording and panning (which you probably don't hear). That's about it for the patch. You don't actually "hear" the Tyme Sefari. It's basically FMing the M15 and the Polivoks VCF."

WIARD ANALOG MODULAR SYNTHESIZER

images via this auction
"This system consists of a Woggle Bug Module, a Classic VCO Module, a Borg Filter Module and a Dual Envelator Module housed in a portable & storable wooden enclosure that has two power supplies which fit neatly into a door in the rear of the case (each power supply has a 6.5 foot cord). The front cover of the case was designed with extra space to store patch cords in, and for transporting the system with the synthesizer patched. The wooden enclosure and power supplies are unique & custom built by Grant Richter. This one-of-a-kind system was designed by Grant Richter to specifically supply a lifetime of endless sonic exploration in a self contained unit with a small footprint. The entire modular with cover attached measures a mere 12" x 13" x 14". The unfathomably deep architecture of the modules in this system, coupled with the very portable build of the system, place it in the ranks of legendary portable systems like the EMS Sythi and the Buchla Music box. This is the very unit displayed on the front page of the Wiard synthesizer website (it's the one in the wooden box, Grant added the handle on top after taking the picture). Richter had this to say about this system 'This is a custom system and I won't be making any more of them'.

*PLEASE NOTE* This system may consist of four modules, but the WIARD Synthesizer is NOT a "normal" modular synthesizer. It is much more powerful. The Woggle Bug module alone has the equivalent functionality of 18 electrical modules! Each Wiard module has the functionality of numerous modules, it would take a very large modular system to do what this very compact system is capable of and even then it probably wouldn't have the audiophile-type sound quality that these WIARD modules produce!

On top of all that, the WIARD system is a work of visual art. In an effort to encourage experimentation and exploration of this instrument, the visual elements of the WIARD synthesizer were created by a design team of professional artists and students who researched a visual appearance that is equally welcoming to all genders and ages. This is a highly uncommon musical instrument."

"Modified Roland TR-707 by Diabolical Devices. Roland TR-707 with added pitch controls for the first 8 drum sounds/groups (bass drum through Hi-Hats..not cymbals) Each pitch control has a bypass switch and a bi-color (red/blue) LED to indicate pitch status. There is also a 12 point circuit-bending patch bay and 4 hard-wired switches, when these are activated you can generate a variety of ring-mod, distorted and bit reduced, and delayed effects. Please check out the audio samples on our web site. I will post a video in this listing when I can. This machine also has Blue LED color change. Audio Samples are at: www.circuit-bent.com."

Anyone know what those little jumper looking things on the bottom shot are?

Update: a couple of people have written in to call out it's a small gridded vent. That's just some solder points on the PCB.
