ElectroKraft.com SpaceSynth Part I (Demo of Synth Sounds)

YouTube via orphiusflux
"The SpaceSynth has three oscillators, one is controlled by a photocell light sensor (optical Theremin). It also has an instrument input so that you can process a guitar, bass, keyboard or another synth. It adds pulsing/modulation effects as well as various distortions to guitar and bass.

When processing an instrument you can further modulate the effects by waving your hand over the photocell sensor. The photocell sensor functions similar to the way an "expression pedal" does.

I'll be making this available as a kit. Please see ElectroKraft.com"

A step sequencer made with an arduino for brains. schematics and buildinfo over at www.larsby.com/johan/ass.

This is the version that is as close to finish it's going to be for this summer."

DX5 playing Depeche Mode "Christmas Island"

YouTube via DX5

"Christmas Island played with an Emu Emax only (With new EL foil light on the display).
Emax sequencer is a realtime recording (non quantized) one, then the bass sequence (and therefore my realtime bassdrum and snare playing) can be out of sync sometimes.

Two sounds are samples from the original track, the others were created by myself or taken from some of my libraries.

BTW; I forgot the clothes I use for covering my keyboards against dust on the sofa.

Originally Composed by Martin Gore and Alan Wilder."

Happy Birthday Bob Moog

Bob Moog and Theremin

via Michelle Moog-Koussa:
"Here's something I can share, -- a beauty from the archive -- finally got it cleaned up and scanned today [May 15]. This is a beautiful photo, but what strikes me in particular is Dad's intention and elegance; these are threads that ran through his whole career. This image is even more powerful because we all know that it was just the beginning of life of pioneering exploration that helped change the face of music. Wait. Is that my father wearing a bow tie? Happy Birthday Dad. We miss you."

Bob Moog would have been 75 today.

"Double Six is a 6-operator FM synth with 32 DX7 algorithms and 16 4-operator algorithms.

* 6-operator FM synth with 32 DX7 algorithms and 16 4-operator algorithms.
* Every operator has its own envelope. You can choose between 1 and 8 stages and set the sustain point from 1 to 7 or off.
* Every operator has a clipper,overdrive,lowpass filter,and a distortion.
*
* 2 octave sequencers with Destinations operator 1 to 6.
*
* 4 envelopes with retrigger mode on BPM rates.
*

3 LFOs with 19 different waveforms with 16 different BPM rates and free rate(manual) mode.
Destinations of the LFOs are pitch operator 1 to 6,phase monulation 1 to 6 and cutoff
* The LFOs can start free (anypoint of the lfo waveform) gated starts when you hit a key or first (starts when you hit play in the sequencer).
* A ocatve pitch
* 14 different curves for the envelopes.All envelopes have a time knob.You can switch between the envelope and volume.
*
* The operators can be disabled, fixed or pitched and have a octave range from -6 to 3, fine-tune and pulse width.
* 11 different waveforms for the operators.
* The filter has the same envelope and there are 10 different filters types low-pass 12db,low-pass 24db,low-pass db32, hi-pass,band-pass,CK low pass,CK Band pass,CK hi pass,CK notch,CK,peak.
* Volume envelope.
* EZ preset: This allows you make new sounds fast. You can reset all fine-tunes with the hit of a button or change all waveforms, set all the octaves the same and the times of the envelopes.
* Phase modulation depth control and a feedback control
* Volume envelope.
* Note sequencer
* Build in effects are Chorus, stereo delay, gater,clipper,ovedrive,distortion and phaser effects.
* Velocity controls
Voice/poly controll"
"38911 Bytes v3.0 is a one oscillator synth
It`s a synthesizer based on Commodore 64 software but it can do a lot more

It has 1 oscillator synth with 4 waveforms (Saw, Triangle, Pulse,pitched Noise) ringmodulation waveforms (Saw, Triangle,Pluse). PulseWidth Octaves from -3 to 4.

1 ringmodulation oscillator with 3 waveforms (saw,triangle,pulse) PulseWidth,octaves range -3 to 4 and notes C to B

3 LFOs with 19 waveforms,16 different BPM rates and FREE rate (manual)
They have a low/hi depth option and destinations are pitch oscillator, pw and cutoff
The LFOs can start when hitting a key (GATE) start when you hit play in your sequencer (FIRST) and start at any point (FREE)

4x16 step sequencers:
With 11 BPM rates and FREE rate mode (manual) in FREE mode all sequencers have the same rate.
1 waveform sequencer you can select the following waveforms (saw, triangle, pulse,pitched noise,RM Triangle,RM saw,RM Pulse)
1 octave sequencer range from -3 to 4
1 Octave and notes sequencer notes form C toB and octave range -3 to 4
