"This is a feeble attempt to "Play" the Scott Stites Appendage Touch Ribbon Controller, along with the KLEE Sequencer(the bass pattern), and Thomas Henry GM Voice(the drums). It's my first attempt and marginally musical :-0 The circuit is DIY snd is built on perfboard inside the box. See electro-music.com for upcoming PCBs and technical details.

KKP SleepDrone 5 outputs

"We're just having some fun using the King Capitol Punishment Sleepdrone 5's separate outputs for each oscillator. One's running to the WMD Geiger Counter, one to the Catalinbread Teaser Stallion, one to the Catalinbread Valcoder, and one to the Zvex Vexter Fuzz Factory."

Saxxy Voice-Controlled Synth

via this auction

"Saxxy is a voice-controlled synthesizer shaped like a mini sax, I guess.
You sing/hum/scream into the mic at one end and Saxxy spits out tuba, clarinet, or sax sounds that track the pitch of your voice. You can also shift any of the sounds 2 octaves up or down.

This is a surprisingly fun little device that can actually sound quite cool, and it's great as a non-keyboard approach to sound generation. The tuba sound pitched down an octave does some cool bass too.

Takes 4 AA batteries and has a 1/8" headphone output."
