altoids APC (different version)

YouTube via puffhandy
"this is a custom built atari punk console, i noticed that when i use it i almost always have the one knob at full resistance and i just use the other knob for the stepped tones rather than the boing, boing boing knob i also had a problem fitting three knobs (one for the filter) on the altoids and still making it look good, the other one had three knobs really close together. this time i omitted one pot and in it's place there's a 470k resistor."

Two Voyetra Eight Tracks

via Mark Pulver on the AH list:

"Let it never be known that any of you have ever heard these tracks. I've been sitting on them for a LONG LONG time (1995-96).

The string pads are Voyetra 8... Mix sucks, Mud ensues, MP3 encoding sucks, one of these days I have to learn to play, blah blah blah...

ElectroComp EML 200

images via this auction

"EML, Electronic Music Labs, of Connecticut. This was produced in the early to mid 70's as a companion expander piece to the famous EML 101. They were made to complement each other, for instance adding the master oscillator as a modulation source, or using the wave-shaper and ring mod to enhance the sound of another synth. BUT - this versatile Blue Box can also be used as it's own stand alone synth. Using an external sequencer or keyboard, you have 2 VCO's to control. The outputs and inputs on this are all 1/4" and are well thought out. For example: Most are duplicated, for more than one input or output option per parameter, and they're numbered for use in patching aplications.

Here are the modules:
• 1 master OSC, with sine, triangle and square wave outputs (2 each)—Freq. range from .01 Hz to 20k Hz—all can go simultaneously.
• 2 VCOs, with Center Freq. and swing. These can Freq. Mod.
• Spring Reverb with gain
• Analog A/B switch with independant gain—with pulse input.
• HP and LP filters
• Wave Shaper (ADSR)/Modulation section and Ring Mod + Sampler section (for S&H effects)
• Noise outputs
• 6-Channel Mixer with individual Levels and Pans
• Another Ring Mod!
• Pre-amp input with Low, Med and High sensitivity.
