Space Baby Modulated Digital Delay demo

YouTube via WoosterAudio — "February 14, 2010 — Space Baby is a digital delay which will debut at Handmade Music Austin #5 on February 28, 2010 (along with the Bleep Labs PicoPaso). It has dedicated controls for wet/dry mix, delay, and feedback. A rotary encoder is used to adjust delay modulation speed/amplitude, clock source, and ring modulation.

The same simple 8 beat synth line plays throughout the demo. The demo begins with the dry synth sound, and then I start tweaking the delay and feedback controls. Later in the video I enable the ring mod / distortion. The ring mod multiplies the original signal by the delayed signal for unusual clangorous sounds.

The delay modulation and infrared beat sync features are not used in the demo.

MIDI-IR and Space Baby Demo

"WoosterAudio — June 10, 2010 — This is an extended demo of MIDI-IR and the Space Baby digital delay. MIDI-IR is syncing to an instance of the Audio Damage Tattoo drum synth running on a laptop. It is generating an infrared clock to wirelessly drive the Space Baby and Autonomous Base Generator (ABG). The audio output from the ABG synthesizer is fed into the Space Baby.

MIDI-IR and Space Baby are available in both kit and preassembled form at http://woosteraudio.com

Compatible Andromeda Space Rocker devices are available at:

Moog Voyager Base Editing I

YouTube via Subtronik — June 17, 2010 —

"This is a short example of how easy it is to create rich, dynamic and interesting sounds on the Voyager. I started with a default single osc preset and tweaked it into a squelchy, aggressive bassline in minutes. Beat added post production. Visual FX made from same footage."

MakeNoise MATHS as dual oscillator

YouTube via enamu6 — June 17, 2010 — "MakeNoise MATHS functioning as a dual oscillator, with wave outputs, ringmod and square wave.
Maths gets note CV from the Klee sequencer, straight to a mixer module.

As a demo for a muffwiggler thread, about MATHS as oscillator."

A Vintage Moog Clone?

via David Bulog on the AH list:

"Hi I just got this modular synth today Any clues as to which kitset this was built from --the front panels look professionally made A minimoog was driving it I believe"

followed by:

"A moog modular keyboard was driving it -(not a minimoog as first thought)--uses the same connector as moog keyboard my guess the circuit is a clone of parts of system 55 Im going to obtain the keyboard then i will see how I go my first thoughts are new knobs and recover the case with some black Roland vinyl "

Definitely looks DIY. If anyone has any info on this, feel free to comment or shoot me an email. My contact info is in the bottom right of the site.

Update: It could be an ENS based synth. Via Gino on AH: "Moogs used Cinch Jones connectors and and really old ones had round hi density screw thread connectors on their modulars. They usually only used about 6 pins unless you had VCA and EG knobbage on your controller From the look of that thing I would get it recapped and recalibrated before i ran it for very long, especially if it is an ENS1 based synth."

You can find some info on ENS here, specifically the ENS-76 VCO.

LCD Soundsystem's Plantain Studio

See Plantain Studio for more synth content. Note the studio is now open for outside projects.

via Abe Seiferth: "My name is Abe Seiferth. I'm available for producing, mixing, and engineering at Plantain Studios in New York City. Plantain Studios, otherwise known as DFA studios, is James Murphy's of LCD Soundsystem studio. This studio which has not been open for outside projects is now available through me. This full service studio is an amazing place for producing, mixing and tracking. I have started a blog called Today at Plantain in which myself and my assistant feature different synths from the massive collection here at the studio. The blog features photos and music recorded at the studio. I can also be contacted through the blog for rates and details on the studio." Be sure to see Today @ Plantain for more.

Yamaha CS01 Modifications

Full details on Richard Atkinson's blog

"I started modifying the CS01 by connecting the output of the LFO to the breath control modulation knobs. The point marked TP6 on the circuit diagram is an AC coupled version of the LFO output, which ordinarily is connected to the modulation wheel pot. A 1k resistor connects the breath control modulation bus to ground when no breath controller is plugged in. By removing this resistor, the AC coupled LFO output can be connected here as well."
