Korg Oasys PCI synthesizer system

via this auction

"Original box, breakout cable, unused card...everything.

Also included will be a bonus disc given to me by the seller which has many programs written for this open sourced synth. They are all easy to find on the web but this way you won't have to go digging for them or download them individually.

It's like having every Korg synth from the past 15 years at your fingertips and so much more. Z1/ Prophecy/ Triton/ Karma...so many synths. The Oasys PCI is a card/program that Korg released before the standalone Oasys keyboard.

A quick read on this system will show that there are many dedicated, fanatic users still today. The only thing is that you need an old Mac or old PC to run it. Mac can't have higher than OS 10.9.3 on it and Windows has to be 98 or earlier. From the computer you interact with ADAT and MIDI."

Physical Touchscreen Knob for the iPhone/iPad

Physical Touchscreen Knob from adam kumpf on Vimeo.

"Here's another quick hack to add more physicality to touch screen displays. With a small knob, it's natural to grab it such that your fingers actually touch the screen making it nothing more than a physical prop to provide some tactile feedback. We experimented with conductive fabrics, copper tape, etc., but found that it worked best with simple physical objects.

EKOSYNTH Manual?

Anyone have a copy of the EKOSYNTH Manual? I linked to one in this post, but it looks like it is gone. I should have mirrored it then.

Atari Jazz Console Version 2 - video 4.AVI

YouTube via dolphinicus — May 13, 2010 — "This is the 4th video of my Atari Jazz Console Version 2. I now have the 8 bit shift register; pair of Exclusive OR's and triple Voltage Controlled SPDT switches, up and running. This is a simpler video with myself not changing the patch in any ways, except for adjusting pitch controls. This video does help to hear a couple of more possibilities from it though. :) More coming in the future as the final modules are decided upon and added to the AJC V2."

The Samchillian Tip Tip Tip Cheeepeeeee Demo

YouTube via leggo — January 07, 2006 — "This is a demo of my musical keyboard invention, the samchillian tip tip tip cheeepeeeee. This keyboard is based on interval changes of pitch, rather than fixed pitches, as on a traditional keyboard. This system allows for very quick and unusual melodic improvisations. The video goes through the various features. You can download a software version for the keyboard at my website - see below. NOTE: the video seems to indicate a vibrato function obtained by moving the finger side to side on the key. In fact this is not a feature currently available, but one i hope to include shortly."

I thought I saw this before - back in 2006.
