Casio MT-400V w/analog filter, resonance


via this auction

"This was probably the best "Square Wave" Casiotone that they ever offered. It has a real analog filter with cutoff and resonance controls. The chorus is creamy. It also has a white noise generator.
The filter can also be controlled with a breath controller.

If you are handy with a soldering iron, there are some articles on the net where you can hot rod the resonance on this unit."

"'Good Vibrations' is a psychedelic pop song by American rock band The Beach Boys. Composed and produced by Brian Wilson, the song's lyrics were written by Wilson and Mike Love.
Released as a single on October 10, 1966 (backed with the Pet Sounds instrumental "Let's Go Away For Awhile"), it was The Beach Boys' third U.S. number-one hit, reaching the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart in December 1966, as well as being their first British chart-topper. Initiated during the sessions for the Pet Sounds album, it was not taken from or issued as a lead single for an album, but as a stand-alone single, and later placed on the album Smiley Smile eleven months after its release."

early arc experiment - monome arc details

"a micro-looper.

eight samplers, corresponding to columns of the grid.

record by holding second-from-bottom key.

focus arc to column by pushing bottom key.

left knob is loop selection. turn to move selection, push-turn to resize selection.

right knob is volume. turning changes velocity, not position, so a tremelo effect is easily achieved. pushing down stops the spin, like a turntable.

third key up is mute/unmute. top rows transpose up/down by octaves. top rows meter sound levels."

"how does it work?
the device connects to a computer and is powered by USB. when the knob is moved or depressed, data is sent to the computer. the application running determines what happens with this data, and may correspondingly send data back to the device, changing the light pattern.

as with our other devices, programming isn’t required, though you may find yourself wanting to learn. we’ve already begun writing applications and expect the library to grow quickly through community involvement."
