Midisyncer - Boston Music Hack Day project


YouTube Uploaded by syntheticbits on Nov 8, 2011

"Demonstration of my hack from Boston Music Hack Day, held Nov 5-6 2011 at Microsoft NERD in Cambridge, MA. The project was an iOS app that lets you sync a drum machine or groovebox to a song on your iPhone/iPod. It uses Echo Nest song analysis data to get the beat patterns of the song you pick, then uses iOS CoreMIDI to send out a MIDI clock based on that pattern that can be synced to."

Synth Trivia: syntheticbits is the man behind Funk Box and Little MIDI Machine for iOS.

BI created a Synth Trivia label starting with this point. Not sure if it will go anywhere, but there it is. If you catch any posts, old or new, that you think should get the label feel free to comment in that post or shoot me an email.

Also see I Dream of Wires on Indiegogo and the IDOW label for more including the IDOW & MATRIXSYNTH modular pic of the week contest.

All that is included is front panel and rear panel.

Original TR808 electronics will screw directly to the front panel.

The output jacks PCB will screw to the rear panel. You may have to extend some of the audio wires.

You will need M3 screws to screw front panel to rear panel.

The front/rear panel has spare holes if you decide to fit your own MIDI to it.

You can mount the original mains power supply to the case (seek professional advice).

Via Scott Jaeger on Facebook where you'll find more pics and captions.

"This set of photographs shows the difference in size between the original Polivoks oscillator card and the Harvestman eurorack module equivalent."

Bottom pic: "Angle shot of my completed implementation of the circuit. That brown square is a Russian NOS mica capacitor that costs a tenth of the Western equivalent. The two "special" Russian ICs are the KR551UD1 (precision op amp used for temperature compensation) and the KR198NT1 (transistor array with matched pair)."
