Justin Owen - DIY Collaborators Wanted

"> I'm looking for people who might be interested in collaborating with me on

> I've been doing this as a solo effort since 2008. My 1st Gen designs were

> have outsourced assembly.
>
> I would now like to take things up another level. I have a backlog of

>
> This is not a formal job offer and there aren't regular hours or pay. I'm

> projects and working to agreed terms.
>
> Remuneration, at this stage, would be a negotiated royalty as a percentage

>
> There isn't a specific job description but I know what skills I'm lacking

> I'm based in London, UK but I'm well versed in working with clients and

> Currently, my thing is analog, desktop hardware and modules.Size and

> current modular designs (and experience) are for the Eurorack format.
>
> I'm aware I'm casting a wide net. I have no idea how many or what type of
> responses I will get so I make no promises other than I'm genuine.
>
> Interested in taking design ideas and helping turn them into prototypes?
> Got a prototype that you'd like to see turned into a product?
> Got a product that is no longer at market but still has some life in it?
>
> Consider what you're interested in, capable of, able to offer and what you

Circuit-Bent Alesis HR-16 modular drum glitched beats

via this auction
See the seller's other items for more.

"Circuit-Bent Alesis HR-16 by Diabolical Devices

This mega modified Alesis HR-16 is the first in a short series of HR mods in custom enclosures and loaded with features. The HR-16 is filled with circuit-bent craziness and unique drum/synth sounds. Check out the description of features below. When none of the modifications are engaged this machine functions like a 100% stock hr-16

Custom HR-16 FEATURES:

Circuit-Bending Interface: 1/8" patch-bay allow you access to bendable ROM locations. Linking these points with patch cables will generate a wide range off effects, synth tones, new sounds, and unique sound-scapes. The HR-16 is particularly responsive to CB mods and has one of the widest ranges in sound for a circuit-bent drum machine. Patch-bay also has 3 points joined for mulit patching, and the entire patch-bay is backlight with multi-color flashing LEDs. Leds randomly blink and fade into just about every color in the spectrum.

Patchable Components: (6) Patchable toggle switches and (1) patchable potentiometer allow you to control when bending points are linked and fine-tune some bends.

Dual Oscillator: Audio Frequency oscillator and LFO . When patched to particular locations this will generate tunable overtones and other unique sounds.

CLK/Master Pitch Control: Master pitch controls affects the pitch of all drum sounds but not the tempo of pattern of speed of other functions. Pitch ranges from well above to WAY below normal pitch, at low pitches you can get some really gritty bit-reduction sounds. Pitch is controlled with LED fader and features by-pass switch."

"This item is an 8-stage oscillator (4) audio frequency and (4) LFO's. Each stage has a pitch/speed control and a corresponding line on the patch grid. Waveforms are combined and modulated by linking x/y axis with LED patch pin. Each Audio oscillator has a switch that adds it to the main 1/4" output located on the back. Check out the video demo below. Hand made by James Gramling of Diabolical Devices."


EMINENT 310 unique THEATRE model

via this auction
"This organ, still used by Mr. Jean Michel Jarre in his famous albums oxygene and equinoxe.
The best string ensemble sound ever made, no sample is better, just the original analogue sound from the original Eminent 310 unique theatre organ. The Eminent 310 unique STANDARD model is totally hard to find, I am searching months and months, I am afraid there is no one in the Netherlands. No problem, this Eminent 310 unique theatre model is technical EXACTLY the same as the STANDARD model. (even JMJ owns this theatre model). We have the best experience with restoring this unique organ, I even think we are the only from Holland who still will restore this Eminent. If we say fully restored, we mean fully restored (restoring the small faders inside, removing and replacing over 700 key contacts inside, restoring every on/off switch, replacing noisy capicitors, even it is possible to replace all new capacitors (ask for special price)."
