"This Doepfer Regelwerk is currently being auctioned by me on Ebay, ending March 8 2010:

I created this video mainly to demonstrate this Regelwerk for my auction, but hopefully it will serve a purpose as a demonstration of the Regelwerk's sequencer mode, since there really aren't any good demos of this sequencer available on YouTube.

Just a brief description of how the Regelwerk works in sequencer mode:
- Sequencer uses sliders/buttons #9-24
- 8 tracks, max length 16 steps (Step on/off + Pitch + Velocity)
- Lower buttons 9-15 = Track edit select
- Lower buttons 16-24 = Track on/off (mute/unmute)
- Upper buttons 9-24 = Step on/off
- Step on/off + Pitch transmitted via corresponding CV/Gate channel outputs
- Step on/off + Pitch + Velocity transmitted via Midi Out 1 (midi channel can be set per track)

In this video:

- Midi-output-1 goes to MAM ADX-1
- Track 1 = ADX kick
- Track 2 = ADX snare
- Track 3 = ADX "synth" (lazer type sound)
- Track 4 = Closed HH
- Track 5 = Open HH

- Midi-output-2 sends midi clock to x0xb0x
- x0xb0x audio out into Moogerfooger MF-101
- Track 8 = CV-8 into MF-101 Filter-CV-In

- Track 6 = CV/Gate-6 into SH-101 CV/Gate-In
- Track 7 = CV-7 into SH-101 VCF-CV-In (an SH-101 mod)

Regarding the SH-101 sequence in the latter part of this demo... I realize it's not the greatest, but I wanted to demonstrate creating on-the-fly sequences with the Regelwerk.

- DIN sync output to TR-808 (seen under the MAM & x0x, but not being used in the mix)"

Frequency-Dividing Q-119 "Q-Torial"

YouTube via morbius001
"No Frequency-Divider? No problem. Here is one, of several techniques, showing how to use an analog stepping sequencer (S.com Q-119) as a great Frequency-Divider... which means, ya don't have to buy one. This technique can be used with a Q960 sequencer... and probably many others. In this technique, 'gate' or 'trigger' signals are NOT used... this uses Control-Voltages!"

Doug Slocum's Beautiful "Steampunk" Modular System

You can find more images of this amazingly beautiful system here and on the SSL website here.

Update via ark in the comments: "There is a picture on the front page of donslepian.com of Don Slepian playing this same synth. (I know because I took it)"

Update via dugernaut in the comments: "I'm a bit late to the party, but I thank you for all your comments.

For those that disliked my synth efforts, I can only say that the amount energy that went into creating that SteamPunk look is what TOTALLY inspired me to make this crazy machine in the first place. It was a complete labour of Love.

Since meeting Dr. Moog at his office in the late '60s / early '70s in Trumansburg, I've felt a special something for modular / analog synths.

You can take a Synth out of Modular, but you'll never take "modular" of of synth!

Rest in peace, Bob. I love you. I hope you're having a great time chatting with my father over a couple beers, watching a football game at that pub!"

Audiotool pulverisateur

It looks like Hobnox's Audiotool will feature a new synth called pulverisateur. If you are not familiar with Audiotool, check it out here. Think of is as online VSTs of classic gear including Roland TR-808, TR-909, TB-303 and effects.
