Update: transcription via redmartian on muff's:

"Hi I'm Scott from the harvestman I've got a few new modules to show this year.

The first is the Hertz Donut digital oscillator, its a dual digital oscillator with an internal modulation buss, which is sort of inspired by the Buchla 259e in arrangement and interface .. it does its own thing .. take a listen to it.

You know you can do a nice clean sine wave .. there is also a waveform discontinuity parameter which is kind of a simple wave shaper .. here is what it sounds on sine. But its a bit more interesting on a triangle wave. Its pretty simple on the sawtooth. You know you can .. there is also a completely separate modulation oscillator both halves of the module track 1 volt per octave but you can assign the modulator to frequency modulate the primary which is through zero or you can also modulate the waveform discontinuity and there is also a simple amplitude modulation and combinations of the three. There is also a pitch tracking mode where you can have frequency and modulator track the primary there are different settings and lagging in different .. and going on all .. that accurate which gets interesting when you start frequency modulating it will jump all over the place.

There is also .. There is also a clean tracking mode with no lag which is useful for having a set interval for the frequency modulation and double start loops or whatever. So yeah, just last night I complete the 2.0 firmware with an algorithm which adds a few new features first of all the maximum sampling rate is doubled. The maximum bit depth is now up to 10 bits from 8. The bit depth is also disabled when the internal wave shaper is on because some of the feedback modes it can cause it to walk up without producing audio so instead of having the bit depth control in that mode do other interesting modifications .. here is the sweep of the bit depth .. and the sampling rate. lets run through the wave shape .. this is just a sine wave. So yeah thats how the module sounds now.

I also added a feedback input jack on the Time Safari delay which makes the expansion a lot more interesting. can now be feedback into the module without having to use an external mixer. Also my feedback console is now complete adding to the quad pedal preamp is a 4x4 matrix mixer which allows you to make a feedback network out of four guitar peddle chains. So this this pedal board over here just has delays, pitch shifters and ... no input signal at all its just feedback. "

James Husted of SYNTHWERKS

Note this was the first talk of the meeting. Unfortunately, I got off to a slow start and missed capturing the beginning and end of this talk. To those that attended, you will notice bits missing here and there. Unfortunately I did run out of memory on both my digital and video camera, so I missed the last few talks.
