Comparing 3 types of tact switch

via Real world Interfaces

"Tactile (tact) switches are momentary action on/off switches. This page is a comparison of three types of tact switch which could be used in the TB-303. This discussion applies directly to the switches used in the TR-606, and more generally to stem-less versions of the same kinds of switches, as used in the TR-808, JP-8 and original DX7."

Kasio - Phase Distortion Max/MSP Software Synthesizer

via Oli Larkin blog where you'll find a download link.

"This is a max patch that I have been working on for a while. There is an ongoing discussion on the C74 forums about the lack of fully featured synth examples, so I thought I would polish this up and put it out there. It's loosely modelled on a Casio CZ101 and uses phase distortion synthesis, which is a kind of FM. The UI is purely functional. It doesn't use any externals."
