VCOnet vs the Drone Racks: A Dirge for BC

YouTube via OculoRapido
"A doombient salute to BC, as we approach the first year of unfilled bc16 orders. Is that Buzzy the bc8 lying silent and dead under the marble skull before the Borg Disk? Tune in next time to find out what new disaster awaits our long-suffering, backlogged gear cult as the fabled bcX and XWIND eat all available time and components. Perpetrated on Blacet/Metalbox/Wiard/Cynthia modular synths, VCOnet proto, KAOSS Pad 3. Xacti HD1010 video. Produced by Doktor Bob at Rapid Eye Soundlabs. Copyright 2009 Robert B. Trelease, Ph.D."

En Attendant BC - bc16 Slightly Delayed Mix

" Analog and digital ambient dronefest ode to the theoretical existence of the bc16 synthesizer, though its realization has oft been deferred since 2008. Sonics perpetrated with Blacet/Metalbox/Wiard/Cynthia modules, KAOSS Pad 3, and Chimera Synthesis bc8 ("normal" noisy mode). Tsk Tsk, Visual effects by Borg Disk and Pyramid Prism light organ. Produced by Doktor Bob at Rapid Eye Soundlab. Copyright 2009 Robert B. Trelease, Ph.D. Dedicated to the Disembodied Hand school of knob-twiddling EM videos."

Metalbox/CGS Programmer/Sequencer Test Drive

YouTube via OculoRapido

"Test drive of Metalbox/CGS 16 stage analog CV Programmer/Sequencer module, demonstrating random access to each stage and forward/backward sequencing. Original Catgirl Synth circuit design by Ken Stone, after a basic Serge sequencer. Performed on Blacet/Metalbox/Wiard/Cynthia modular analog synthesizer systems. Downsampled MP4 video converted from Sanyo HD1010 720p recording. Produced by Doktor Bob at Rapid Eye Soundlabs. Gratitude and respect to Michael Ford for designing and building all the brilliant blue Metalbox modules. Copyright 2009 Robert B. Trelease."

via Robert on the AH list:
"Michael Ford (Metalbox) has begun limited production of 8 and 16 stage versions of a classic Ken Stone Catgirl Synth design Programmer/Sequencer. Each version has 4 channels (A-D) of V/OCT CV outputs, up/down ('clock trigger') inputs, common pulse and all event outputs (for summed stage and pushbutton triggers), plus individual stage pulse inputs and outputs. The latter can be used to patch complex loops between stages. Each stage has a combination output LED and pushbutton switch, so stages can be triggered manually. Each channel (A-D) has an individual CV pot for each stage, so there's a tight/neat array of smoothly twisty knobs. http://www.metalbox.com/custom.html

According to Stone's familiar CGS documentation, he expanded on an original Serge sequencer design. http://www.cgs.synth.net/modules/cgs59_prog.html

Michael's Metalbox 16 stage version was custom built for me in a clean 'Wiard' blue anodized front aluminum chassis, 3" deep, 5U height, full width (19") rack mount, 1/8" jacks. Power was provided by a standard Blacet PS-500a connection through a custom DIN cable. As I recall, Michael said that the 16 channel version draws 250 mA."

castor atari punk x3, low pass gate, dual sequencer, clock

YouTube via horchacha
"castor
sound generator 'atari punk console/stepped tone generator'
it's pitch is modulated by the top sequencer either pitch or pulse width
second atari punk/stepped modulates the main apc pitch's cv pin
third atari punk/stepped modulates the pulse width of main apc
this goes through a low pass gate w/ switch for vca/band pass/low pass and
second row of sequencer modules its cutoff via a depth pot
master volume - external clock input/reset
