Roland RS-101 Analog String Synth 1975

via this auction
"This 1975 RS-101 model is exactly the same as the later 1976-77 model RS-202, except the RS202 added a switch to turn the ensemble off. As the ensemble effect is the main key to the string synth sound, you never want to turn it off, as that is what makes the classic and lush 70's/80's synth string sound, so the RS-101 delivers that dreamy sound you can get lost in."

Diy midi controller, Loop Daft Punk - Harder Better FASTEST Stronger


YouTube via Jimmy333x2
"one of the first test about midi loop.
I'm playing a midi base on cubase in a loop, it's not the same as the original one...
it's just to show recently added functions, as improved ADSR, Filters, delay...

at least my project has reached a better structure, now I can develop new features in a easier way.

New features:
startup memory control(EEPROM) just 2 blocks: 256kb , up to 1MB
Nokia(3310) display BMP images available.
more analog input enabled (3 MUX-8channel =24 IN) [it reamains just the last one to solder for 32 total IN]
Encoder enabled for menu selection.

Nowadays works:
complete menu implementation,
dual encoder
memory mapping for Sequences , BMP, Presets, other kinds of file..."

MIDI controller box (step 1)

"Underlying the project is a PIC18F452, I programmed using the CCS C compiler for PIC
Starting from a crystal oscillator and having from 10MHz internal PLL enabled (which multiplies the frequency x4) CIP process the code at a frequency of 40MHz, providing excellent uptime.
In the code I used for dynamic allocations, readings via analog MUX, management of double alphanumeric LCD display and LCD display (that of the Nokia 3310)

midibox receives the keys pressed on the keyboard via MIDI (note.on and note.off) and saves them on a buffer-based software dynamic lists.
the buffer is read and emptied at each interrupt caused by Timer1.
Meanwhile, the analog port multiplexers read and scroll through the various slider (16 hours), each of them has an associated MIDI Control Change command.
displays the values associated with each slider, the middle displays the bar charts."

NintendoDS MIDI controller for SID-BOX 6581 (Filter)


YouTube via Jimmy333x2
"Filter test for 6581
My nintendo DS is running my custom midi controller app
you can act on the graph bars modifying Control change midi events
and playing notes as a keyboard
this app is written with Devkitpro C++ tools, using Libnds libraries (for Nintendo DS)
and in CCS C (for pic+6581 module)

MIDI commands are sent from nintendo DS using DSMI libraries by WiFi and routed with Beup to SID-box with an external MIDI cable"

Legend Of Zelda Theme - real 8bit SID 6581 (test1)

"this is a MOS 6581 MIDI interface based on a PIC 18F452 20Mhz,
MOS 6581 and MOS 8580 were the Sound Interface Device of '80s Computer Commodore 64.
in this box the PIC acts as a serial to parallel converter allowing MIDI events elaboration, including at this stage:
NOTE-ON /OFF
Control Change
(osc freq, Envelope Generator, Filters, Pulse Witdh, WaveForm, RingMod, Sync..) for all 3 internal oscillators)

in this video I'm testing monophonic 2voices played by guitar pro5 without a dynamic buffer"
