"To celebrate the festive season and the fact that we have had lots of snow in London - I decided to create this Christmas Carol note filtering tree. Each pitch class of a Carol i.e. all the Ds or all the Fs are allocated to a Lego door. When the door is opened, a midi file is played and the notes are sent to a vst synth in a Max Patch. The doors have small magnets which trigger a reed switch. I built a couple of resistor ladder multiplexers so that I could use nine doors with just 3 analogue ins of a Make Controller.

Based on the steiner synthacon filter. Altered to run on a single rail 9v power supply.
Some distortion was added to a couple of layers in record and some compression was added here and there. Other than some key mapped adsr envelope on the second track that comes in on the monomachine all of the filtering in this is done by the K-filter.
It's sound isn't a million miles away from the filters found in the Korg MS-20..."
