EChucK Miniature Module Synth Update

via Inventor on this electro-music.com thread.

"It's time for a status update. EChucK is now 'Ready' in the sense that a full working system can be constructed from the open source board files located on the web page.

The support components are all in place and there is one enabling module, the dsPIC general purpose module, that makes the whole thing be a full working system. Details are explained on the web page linked above, or click on the www button below to get to my music page where there is a link at the top to the EChucK web page.

At this time I must wait for income to make the circuit boards and to set up a PC for running the software, so things are sort of on hold. In the meantime I will design more modules."

The Tone Generation

Note: these are long, so you might want to bookmark this one for when you have time.
You might remember The Tone Generation from this post when the program was first announced. In short, it is a radio series on the history of electronic music. Thanks goes to this post on Califaudio for reminding me of the series. The next program will feature the RCA synthesizer. I am now subbed and will post when it comes in.

Update: if you prefer to download these as mp3s for the road or other, you can find them here.
