"Makenosie Maths generates a clock for the Brainsmodule wich modulates the clock - the Pressurepoint-rows are chained with a Doepfer Sequential Switch.
With the help of a clock-divider and the Doepfer sequencer i can play in sync 3 different sounds with several modules and the Cwejman S1 - also the Machinedrum gets triggers for the Bd and Snare"

"Lorne (http://www.youtube.com/kidtronic) goes over his various noisemakers including a modified Roland Compuphonic Jupiter-4 at the Pacific Northwest Synth Gathering.

via Lorne: "The Compuphonic Jupiter 4 is custom modified with four banks of eight user memories. On top are space rockets gristleisms, fm3s, original buddha boxes, a postcard weevil and the jackson pollock-ish item is a Dearraindrop videoscope [video below] by critter & guitari for audio to video synthesis."

Other noisemakers include the Shruti-1, Casper Electronics Drone Lab, Eric Archer, 4ms, and Where's the Party At 8-bit sampler. Click here for all PNW 2010 posts. Another MATRIXSYNTH T :) I added this and John's video to the MATRIXSYNTH Ts post.

The OLPC at the PNW Synth Gathering 2010

Jeff Sandys brought the OLPC (One Laptop Per Child) laptop this year. I recording his presentation but the audio did not come through. I recorded the presentation on my iPhone and I'm guessing I somehow covered the mike. :( Apologies to Jeff for this. You can see his presentation last year here. See the following link for more info on the OLPC. He did mention a link to where you can download the synth software on a USB. If anyone knows the link, let me know and I will update the post.
