Tone Matrix - "Music Synthesizer"

flickr By tlanephoto
"This is an absolutely magnificint time-waster! "Music" is produced by the positioning of the white squares in the matrix. Multiple squares in the same vertical colunm sound simultaneously like a chord. Timing is adjusted by moving squares sideways, as empty columns make no sound.
Sounds can easily be changed "on the fly" but I couldn't do that and hold the camera at the same time, just moving one or two squares can totaly change the "song".

DS-10 Dominator - Nightshift [Live KORG DS-10 House Music]

YouTube Uploaded by DS10Dominator on Aug 11, 2011

"This is what I do when I play live! As you can see and hear, I'm quite chaotic, but I figured out it's quite interesting to look back on the way I improvise. Some things make no sense, others are nice. Making videos seems very educational, I must do it more often. I hope you enjoy and maybe learn a bit from it. Find all further info about me on www.DS10DOMINATOR.com and www.DS10FORUM.com. Thanks a lot!"

ERIC CHASALOW - BUCHLA 100 Lessons

ERIC CHASALOW - BUCHLA 100 Lesson - Part 1

YouTube Uploaded by echasalow on Aug 6, 2011

"most likely shot in 2005 not 2008 - Eric Chasalow gives a demonstration of the Buchla 100 synthesizer in the Brandeis Electro-Acoustic Music Studio (BEAMS) to a group of students. James Borchers and Nathaniel Eschler (Brandeis Ph.D.students) were there - sorry not sure who else was present.

HERE YOU GO: sorry this is not more exciting, and has no close-ups of the modules, but I did not want to delay yet another year. If you need the basics this should get you going.

This synth was purchased by Brandeis in 1968. When I got there in 1990 to rebuild the studios, I was very happy because my grad school work at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center was mostly done with the same model Buchla (and lots and lots of tape splicing of course).

TetraMaps, iPhone, & Buchla 200e

YouTube Uploaded by dkimcg on Aug 11, 2011

"With a little help from Jeffry of Signal Arts (the designer/manufacture of the Tetra Maps sequencer), I was able to finally get my iPhone to run the TetraMaps using TouchOSC. Very cool, faster than the encoders on the panel, but the iphone is a bit small for detailed control..."
