"A live acid jam.
TB-303 for bass, revolution for lead. The usual x0x suspects all being sequenced by the genoQs octopus.

All recorded live. I tried out some multi camera video editing as well just for fun."

Elektor Formant with step sequencer

video upload by MusicMiK

"Finally i got the missing VCO module for my Elektor Formant. And there also was "something else" in the box, which clearly looked like a step sequencer.

After finding out where the loose cables go and where power has to go, it needed some repair and now works quite fine. According to the chip labels, this thing might be built 1978, it's a very simple design with a 4520 binary counter, 3 4051 for potentiometer multiplexing and sequence control, together with a 4001 which generates the reset signal for the 4520.
The main clock comes from a NE555, the output buffers are TL071 now as one of the CA3130 was dead.

I don't know more about this thing, it looks a bit like a kit, but it also might just be built around a commercial PCB (single sided hand-drawn layout but white print on the component side). No signs about who made this thing, no schematics available (but in fact, it could be developed from scratch in less than a day i think :)

No, i didn't take care of dialing in any well-sounding melody, so it for sure sounds a bit strange..."

Tali and Serge

The coolest of the synth cats has passed away. I had the great fortune to meet Tali on several occasions. It pains me to think she is gone. She was the coolest, sweetest cat I ever met, with the most loving, caring friends. Tali is pure magic. I will miss her deeply. via Carbon111

Update: some more pics of Tali (Circle Cat) and kind words on Harmony Central here.

Roland TR-808 T-Shirt by The Dole Shirt

Some pics of my recently received Roland TR-808 T-Shirt from The Dole Shirt. You might remember it from this video. I have to say, this T is pretty nice. It's a standard Gildan cotton T. I'll see how the print holds up over time, it does look great. I like the Dole Shirt logo on the back - it's not too large, about the size of the bottom of a beer bottle.

"This tune features 2 Monomes, a Launchpad (emulating a 3rd Monome), Ableton Live and my Nocaster. Also used a bunch of the SoundToys plugins.

PoesBoes Fitting a Roland PG-800 with a New Microcontroller

"With this modification the original processor is replaced and C11 of the reset circuit is removed (although not really needed) and the uPD7001C is removed."

You'll find the full details on PoesBoes.
