Polyoptics: FantasticleWorld - Teenage Engineering Op-1

YouTube Uploaded by Axiomatick on Aug 9, 2011

"The Op-1 arrived a couple of days ago, I wanted to experiment a lot more, but I ended up getting caught making a track straight off the bat. Great fun! The voice was sampled from the internal radio.

Goods:
Easily playable, intuitive, great interface, recording, looping, fm radio for sampling, super fun and addictive, amazing tech squeezed in (that's why its so heavy I guess).

Not so good:
No midi clock sync, crashes a _TON_ when doing tape edits (although it boots back up with no loss, just takes time and funks up the workflow), faint but audible high pitch noises.

Verdict:
I love it!"

Inventor's Percussion Lunetta

via Inventor on electro-music.com where you can find updates and a sample.

"I've decided to begin creating a Lunetta Percussion product and put my name on it. When completed I will offer it for sale at a reasonable price.

It just so happens that when I piece together all the interesting Lunetta circuits that I've been working on lately I get a nice little percussion machine! Isn't that nice? So I'm going to take a breadboard and a tupperware container and some alpha pots, chips, etc. and make a nice little Lunetta Percussion box.

So you can follow the development and make your own one of these, I will document my progress in this thread. Well, also for the fun of it. So here goes, listed block diagram to follow...

Les"

Update via reinventor/Les in the comments: "Hi, the project turned out well. It was my first enclosed circuit and I really enjoy the weight and feel of it compared to all my previous open-frame projects. I'll be featuring this and other percussion Lunetta circuits on The Les Hall Show, an electro-music.com radio show this Friday 8-12-2011 at 5pm EST. It will be a two hour special so tune in, kick back, and enjoy some nerdy fun!"

Tellun Industries TLN-712 Doomsday Machine

via this auction

Assembled by Free State FX

"The TLN-712 is a massive waveshaper that sounds unlike anything I (and probably you too) have heard before. The module contains (1)Multi-Phase Waveform Animator, (1)Pulse Width Multiplier, and (4)LFO's. In my opinion, the name "Doomsday Machine" makes is seem like this thing just destroys any audio that you run through it, and while it is certainly capabale of doing that, it is also capable of gentle movement that adds realism and intrigue to patches.

* There is a small surface scratch (not through the paint) above the third LFO's "OFFSET" Pot. The scratch is very light and only visible at a certain angle.

Assembled with:
(2) Audio Inputs + Auxillary Input
External Rate and Depth Inputs with Attenuators
Tri, Saw and Step Outputs
(4) PWM Outputs
(4) Internal LFOs with Offset, External Modulation, Rate, and Depth Controls
External Modulation Input Jack for each LFO
Triangle LFO Output Jack for each LFO
Sine Wave LFO Output Jack for each LFO
Switchcraft Jacks
Military Grade RG-174 Coax Cable Used on Audio Signals
Polyester Film Capacitors
Metal Film Resistors
Double Plated PCB with Soldermask
MOTM Power Connector
Runs on +/- 15 Volts
Hand Signed and Numbered

Here is some additional information about the TLN-712 from the Tellun Industries Website.

Catgirl Synth CGS49 - Twin CMOS Multimode Filter

via this auction

Assembled by Free State FX
"Catgirl Synth CGS49 Twin CMOS Multimode Filter with Distortion Module. The Twin CMOS Filter is two fully independent multimode (LPF, HPF, Notch, BP) filters based upon the famous Wasp VCF. I modified the "Spread CV" Knob so that the spread function can be used without an external control voltage (turning the knob clockwise sends voltage to the inverted input of Filter A and the non-inverted input of Filter B). Juergen Haible's Distortion circuit is inserted at the Output of each filter. Filter A's Output is normalled to Filter B's Output so you can get the outputs of both filters without the use of a mixer. Get two great filters for the price of one!

Assembled with:

CD4069UBEE4's in the Distortion Circuit
(2) Audio Inputs (1 per channel)
(2) Freqency CV Inputs with 2 Inverter Swtiches (1 per channel)
(2) Outputs (Filter A is normalled to Filter B's Output)
(1) Spread CV Input
(2) Filter Frequency Knobs (1 per channel)
(2) Resonance Knobs (1 per channel)
(2) Distortion Knobs (1 per channel)
(2) Frequency CV Knobs (1 per channel)
(2) FIlter Mode Selection Switches (1 per channel)
CV Spread Knob

DX5 playing "Warm Leatherette" (The Normal)

YouTube Uploaded by DX5 on Aug 9, 2011

"Covering an experimental track from late 70's originally by The Normal (Daniel Miller) that also was the first "Mute Records" release.
Recorded at the very first take (without rehearsing)

If you didn't know the song, it can sound very repetitive, but once you listen to it several times you will enjoy it. Be sure to check Daniel's original one too.

Gear:
Upper: Emu EMAX II HD (with Kurzweil and Roland JP8000 samples)
Mid: Roland JP8000
Backtrack recorded in Pro Tools featuring JP8000 and Simmons SDS 8 sounds)

Ander - Live Performance - Grundton @ Hive - Zürich 6.8.2011

YouTube Uploaded by modul8tor on Aug 9, 2011

"The perfomance of Ander opened my eyes - again. Since the beginning of my audio controllerism, I wanted to touch every parameter of my music live.

Ander does just that, plus more: He builds his custom light controllers, see here: http://ander.fm

Here is what he says: "I designed and constructed this MIDI-Controller myself, based on the ucapps.de hardware platform. I use it for live techno performances with Ableton Live. It's not for sale."

Some thoughts about the performance (In german)

- Leuchtpult leuchtet Performer voll aus, lightshow
- Leute haben keine Ahnung was abgeht und sind erstaunt :) "Wooah, das Pult"
- Viel swooshes, buildups, einfach via touchempfindlichen pads, er macht gar keine buildups und crashes, sondern alles live
- Kommentare: Wie von CD, hörts gar nichts von Live Performance
- Unklar wieviel echt gespielt wird, wieviel ist von Konserve
- Es könnten noch ein paar mehr Variationen sein, klingt ähnlich, wiederholend
- Gut gemasterter Grundsound, es ist also offensichtlich möglich, vom Studio Raus direkt in den Club zu produzieren
- Jeder parameter der musik ersichtlich - Meine Devise!
- 3 Pulte mit unterschiedlichen Ausrichtungen - Zweck:
-- 1. Mixer
-- 2. Fx Swooshes mit touch sensitive pads
-- 3. Chromatic Recording"
