Euro MFB Dual LFO Converted to Frac with Banana Jacks

via Luigi aka epinasty elektronix who brought us the TI Touch and Tell:

"I've been re-doing/converting frac style modules to banana jacks. The latest one I just finished... is a Euro MFB Dual LFO crammed into a rack ear of a blacet rack."

Using Tattoo's Randomization Features

"This tutorial shows how the various randomization features in Tattoo (and there are a lot of them) interact. It may seem complex at first, but a little experimentation goes a long ways in this regard.

Video to sound

Video to sound from Matthijs van Henten on Vimeo.

"This video shows my first steps towards a real-time video-to-sound conversion.

The color-tracker was created using Python and OpenCV, using a basic contour tracker on a thresholded HSV channeled image. For each blob, a histogram is calculated.

The most prominent Hue value is then taken as input for the base tone. Information about the size of the contour and it's position is used to manipulate amplitude.

Future steps may include the use of Saturation values to influence the type of sound and an improved audio synthesis.

The sound was made using a simple Pure-data patch.

Toppobrillo SPORT MODULATOR

via Toppobrillo:

"each section can be:

either:
a VC lag that can be made to hold-state on command. also can be put into cycle mode as well, giving a wide-range VC linear triangle LFO that ranges from around 500-600 Hz to 30 seconds or so per cycle.

or:

a sample and hold with controllable input slew [or sample 'correlation' ] the control input is the same. ['s/h' in the drawing].

when cycle is selected in Hold mode, the section will generate complex staircase waveforms that are synced to input pulses.. [BTW the input signal doesn't have to be a pulse, but just about any rising slope, this was done to allow for even more inter-compatibility between the 2 sections.]

finally, the unlabeled jack in the middle is a gate output that compares the top section's output with the bottom. this was heavily inspired by the serge 'smooth/ stepped generator' but expands on it by offering dual mode operation , much wider control range and improved functionality."
