A few of my keyboard heros. How many of these synth giants can you name?"

Pleiades

"I think this song is my best production so far. Used yamaha motif es 6 and alesis andromeda a6. Andromeda was used for the pads. As I said this song is a step to the right direction for me, it has a more mature production, and soothing relaxing theme. I hope you enjoy it."

"Music Board Improvisation. Solo Hardcore Symphony"

Some info on the MusicBoard (MBoard) via the Array Instruments website:

"A harmonic array of electronic touch buttons mounted under a smooth surface for playing music while using computers or electronic synthesizers to make the sounds. Fingers, thumbs and palms as well as hand held implements such as sticks and picks may strike pluck or strum across the playing field to activate the notes. The closest moves produce the most consonant harmonic changes."

Updates on Tellun.com

via Scott on the Modular Panels list:

"I spent the day updating a number of projects on my website. Most of these are for my MUUB based utility modules. In some cases I simply added a Bridechamber panel to an already built module. For others I completely rebuilt the module using MUUB-3 boards in order to avoid stacking PCBs on top of each other. In some instances I created my own panels by making up a template with Front Panel Designer, printing it out, and then pasting it overtop of my plastic panel. Direct links for each of these can be found below.

I also posted some details about a mod for the MOTM-120 that I had done several years ago but forgot to add to my website. I had been discussing some oddball behaviour regarding the MOTM-120 with another list member and mentioned this simple mod not realizing that it wasn't commonly known (see #3 on this page):

Here are the updated MUUB utility links:

Next up I'll be building a couple of Klee sequencers with Bridechamber panel. So far only one simple modification is planned.

Happy synth building!"

Analogue computer - Lorenz Attractor

YouTube via cirtcele. No audio in this one.
"1st patch on my analogue computer. A Lorenz attractor, it runs slowly as the smallest caps available are 0.1uf, with smaller caps the classic butterfly wing can be seen.

squidfanny - Circuit Bent (modified) 909 Analog Drum Synth.

YouTube via squidfanny
"Lo-Fi's answer to the tr-909...... Excedingly rare 'Beat Sound Electronic Drum' from the 80's.
Pure Analog machine with 4 wicked drums, piezo pads, a couple of knobs for 'snare decay' & 'phaser range' and speakers.

Added 12 new knobs to handle Pitch, Decay, Overdrive, Feedback, Distortion and Glitch.
Touch Points to trigger and hold the drum oscillators and for nasty feedback.
Some vintage green and red LED lights which flash with the drums.
Adorned with the usual assortment of odd bits of shiney metal.
Added 1/4" Line out / Changed DC polarity / Added protection Diode.

I've been watching ebay for years for one of these exceptionally rare little beautys, to replace one I had a while back. It was busted when I got it (despite ebay description as 'great condition'), probably because the DC polarity is in-correct and there's no circuit protection diode. . . . look's like the previous owner attempted to use the wrong PSU and burned out the power amp. Thankfully it's a standard IC, so repair was easy and we all lived happily ever after. . . . :-))"

"The sMs Audio Electronics Appendage ribbon controller in action. Really simple setup - appendage mix output sent through a Blacet/Wiard miniwave quantizer, added to a Blacet Hex Zone used as an arpeggiator (really good for this!). Bend output controls square wave Oscillator PWM and a resonant lopass generator release time (via a Blacet EG1).

My appendage is just a 1" x 2" x 2 ft. oak piece that I hogged a small cavity out of to fit an isolated 1/8" stereo jack."
