sammichSID Final Batch

via midibox.org

"After 350 kits sold (including 556 SIDs), I have finally got to the end of the waiting list. Woot!

There will be a final batch of 50 kits in November. I don’t have plans to keep lots of pre-packed kits in stock, therefore, once the last batch is sold, YOU CANT HAZ SAMMICHSID! There are still plenty of kits available in the final batch."

See midibox.org if you are interested in picking one up.

Toorcon 2010 - Full Hardware Live Techno Set

via Shagghie of highsage:
"This is it. This is the sound about to take the LA underground by seige. A drum machine and a synth. Complete control. Merciless, unabashed techno. Breakbeats. Distortion. Vibe. Burners and Hackers alike, meet up at Toorcon.org on the 23rd in San Diego. They will lay witness to the devastation. From there we move to the LA underground, one warehouse at a time. The machines rise up this time, reclaiming their throne from the oasis of shattered laptop screens and mice turned upside down that litter the dancefloor. The misfits raise their fists in the air, re-united in peace once again. Bowing down to the machines again. Closing their eyes, turning off the lights, and dancing again. This one is for the hackers, the misfits, the dreamers and the phuture peeple. This one is for the bass bins. Electronic Bass. Electrobass. Space bass in your face bass. This one is for the Toorcon Knights. As for all the others, let this be your punishment. Electrobass.com, taking LA one warehouse at a time."

élkorus output features - autopanner with élkorus

YouTube via wutierson | October 10, 2010

"Élkorus v.2

Among other improvements this second version includes three modulation outputs corresponding to each BBD (audio delay chip) modulation phase, which means:
LFO1+2 at 0º modulation phase
LFO1+2 at 120º modulation phase
LFO1+2 at 240º modulation phase

This video suggest just one use for those modulation outputs, like to modulate a three VCA's bank panned 1 to 50% left and right, 2 to 100% right and 3 to 100% left in order to obtain an auto-panner effect.
The sound source is the Roland JX-8P processed througt the élkorus at the
same time.

Gear used:
-élkorus v.2 (modulator and processor at same time)
-modular analog synthesizer with dotcom, stg and cotk modules (VCA's)
-Roland jx-8p (sound source)"
