Analog Synthesizer Factory Patches

This post updated. Looks like the old link is gone. Another resource bites the dust. Luckily it looks like it was backed up on the web archive.

BUMMER DUDE! - HR16B Memory Full Message

via Nath:
"I was messing around with my circuit bent Alesis HR16B drum machine when this message popped up... Pretty funny when you consider there wouldn't have been a lot of people who have filled their memory up before.

A little bit of American humor from the 90's."

KORG MS20 with Original Box

via this auction
"The Korg MS-20 is a patchable semi-modular monophonic Synthesizer which Korg released in 1978 and was in production until 1983. In addition to two analog oscillators, the MS-20 features two resonant VCF filters, two VCAs, sample and hold, a noise generator, an assignable mod-wheel and lots of knobs!

The VCF filter section is capable of high-pass, low-pass, notch and band-reject which is unique and different than your basic lowpass style filter. External sound sources can be routed through the filter section as well." via richard

BroadWAVE Synthesizers / DIY Modular

Pictured on top is the BroadWAVE "Big Burtha." I actually put a couple of posts on it back in 2007. I just spotted this new image on sequencer.de and thought I'd put a new post for anyone that might have missed it. You can find more info at the BroadWAVE Synthesizers site.

Below is the Modyssey "Blaze" and the Prodyssey ASB Controller. See the site for more.

Circuit bent Roland TR-505 drum machine

"This was a commission for Chris Wing (www.winganimation.com) who lives in San Francisco and writes cool dub tracks.

I have only used six patch combinations in the video, but there are literally thousands to explore.

The box has MIDI in and out, and a switch to route the drum machine's audio signal through a 'voice modulator' section, which has pitch and LFO controls.

Apologies for the inferior drum programming - I'm looking forward to hearing Chris do it justice!"
