"Video in High Quality auf http://www.musotalk.tv

Der monotron von Korg ist ein Mini-Synthesizer im Hosentaschenformat mit dem Filter vom MS10. Angetrieben wird er von 2 AAA Batterien. Er bietet sogar eine aufgedruckte Mini-Tastatur, die den Pads des Kaossilators oder Kaosspad mini ähneln. So lassen sich leicht Vibratos oder Glides erzeugen.

The MONOTRON from Korg is a mini-synthesizer in pocket format with the filter of MS10. It is powered by 2 AAA batteries. He even offers a printed mini-keyboard that are similar to the pads of KAOSSILATOR Kaosspad or mini. This allows to easily create vibrato and glide.

Modified Yamaha DX-100 Mini FM Synthesizer

YouTube via rolandsh1000
"The DX-100 is a fun, little, fully-programmable FM synthesizer. It's probably most famous as the synth that Roger Troutman of Zapp used for a lot of his talkboxing (he originally used a minimoog). If you search Youtube, you'll find a lot of videos that demo the talkbox capabilities of the DX-100.

This modification isn't a talkbox, but enables a capability that used to be dedicated to the breath control input. On the big brother of the DX-100, the DX-7, you could route the mod wheel to the EG BIAS of various operators. This would allow you to selectively control the relative amplitude of a modulation operator with the mod wheel. Depending upon the algorithm you had set up and the relative frequencies of the carrier and modulation operators, this could give you filter sweeping effects similar to those found on analog synthesizers by rotating the mod wheel.

On the DX-100, the mod wheel can only apply relative amount of LFO to various operators. Only the breath control input can do EG BIAS!?! I thought that sucked, so I changed it. (I actually play with windcontrollers and I think breath control is amazingly expressive for synthesizers, but sometimes you just want to use your hands.)

So, on this DX-100, I added a switch that can route the voltage on the mod wheel to either the mod wheel analog input of the main microprocessor (stock performance) OR the signal from the breath controller jack of the DX-100. This mod I think is acceptable, because (1) I'll bet 99% of the breath control jacks on the existing DX-100's out there have never been used; (2) most people playing with the DX-100 are probably using their mouth to talkbox anyway.

Ignore my lame playing in this video - it's just a demo of the capability."

"Hi. This is a new composition using an older pattern on the EMX, written 3-30-10 is still a work in progress. This song is about my deep passion for synthesizers and the joy of creating music from the heart.

PLEASE ENJOY!

Drone Machine

"I've been messing around with minimalism - via this Drone Machine - Here I'm just twiddling the controls a bit - listen for the harmonics....
Inside the case is 4 CMOS 40106 oscillators, Psuedo Ring-Mod by 4011 CMOS, Oscillator Synch, 2 low pass filters controlled by a vactrol and LFO - and some other stuff :) Mostly it's just low frequency oscillators beating in unison. I Love it.
Through a good subwoofer you really feel it...."
