Midines Demo

"I've put a different sticker on this MIDINES. It is one of the backgrounds under the "Extras" sections on wayfar.net. It is adhered perfectly and covered with a glossy layer of laminate. You can see in the pictures that it is nicely done, and I have attached a video just to demonstrate that this is indeed a legitimate, original MIDINES."

"Rare and Unique Digital Midi Synthesizer from 1988, Beautifully Circuit Bent & Modified in all the right places by Dave Squidfanny...

Awesome looking Synthesizer has new knobs, Buttons and Switches mounted on High Quality Thick Green PCB (Circuit Board), and adorned with shiney Metal pieces and round Metal washers for Wicked Glitch / Manga Look.......

Fantastic Looking METAL KEYS painted with expensive metallic Auto Paint and finnished with high quality Lacquor for a professional finnish. Keys are Painted in multiple shades of Metallic GREEN, BLUE & GOLD.

This Rare Gem from the 80's has a Warm and Pleasing Lo-fi sound generated by Digital 'WAVETABLE' Synthesis.. The result is an Ultra-Harmonic and very likable sound which is quite different from the usual Casio and Yamaha Keyboards.

Original Features include -
Warm, Pleasing Digital Instruments, Lush CHORD & Accompanyment.
Grainy Lo-Fi Drums with loads of preset patterns and Demo tunes.
Very Cool and useful CHORD Management features like the OMNICHORD
MIDI Output.
Simple Internal Sequencer with Tape Save Facility.
Auto Harmony, Sustain & Vibrato.

'Computer Aided Harmony' feature works by re-arranging the keyboard Scale according to which Chord is being played with the left hand. Dis-Harmonious notes are replaced with Harmonious notes, thus allowing an untrained musician to instantly create pleasing sounding music. Combine this feature with the Arsenal of Glitch Modifications for complex and dynamic new sounds previously un-imagined by conventional synthesizers.

'Computer Aided Harmony' Mode Also works when using the MIDI Output, making this machine a useful addition to any MIDI studio.

A Stunning array of powerful modifications open up a new world of Sonic capabilities for this vintage digital machine."

Modcan Super Delay & Digital Delay Comparison

YouTube via scootermccrae | Feb 27, 2011 |

"People have been wondering about the difference in sound between the Modcan 30B Super Delay (which is a true analog delay) and the Modcan 59B Digital Delay, so I set up a simple audio demonstration. It's not meant to be an analog vs. digital contest -- as you'll hear, both of them sound beautiful but have very different tonal characteristics as well as unique reactions to control voltage manipulation.

The Modcan Sequencer is triggering a Modcan 58B VCDO that is passing through a Modcan 68B Matrix Filter (using the 4-Pole Bandpass output). In the first half of the video, that signal is passing through the analog Super Delay -- which is a mono device. I twiddle the knobs throughout and then eventually let triangle waveforms from the Modcan 61B Quad LFO take over the invisible finger chores.

The second half of the video is the same sequence and signal chain passing through the Digital Delay, which has been engaged to output the audio in stereo mode. Again, after some manual twiddling I put the 61B Quad LFO to work once more and send a slow-moving triangle waveform into the control voltage inputs.

As may be apparent from the studio configuration, I do love the Modcan modules for their sound, aesthetic beauty and a user interface that squeezes myriad functions per module into a reasonably-sized space. I hope you find this a useful and entertaining video."
