WASP SPECIAL SYNTHESISER SN 10015

Wasp Special Demo

YouTube Uploaded by 1224Johnmac on Feb 3, 2012

"Here's a little demo of my old Wasp Special vintage mono synth from the 1980's. I'm trying to use all of the knobs to show they are fully functioning. This is a rare model of Wasp with a real wood case. It is serial number 00015 which suggests it was one of the first built. I'm using a modified Epiphone Valve Junior amp to play it through. The sound is being picked up by the built in mic on the Vado camera I'm filming with so the sound reproduction isn't great. I hope you find the video useful. I will be parting company with the Wasp soon."

Repaired and modded synth jam


YouTube Uploaded by ChrisLody on Feb 13, 2012

This is a little synth jam that i've been planning for a while. All of the synths and effects in this video have been repaired by me over the last few years. Here's what i used:

Korg Poly 800 (far left)

I bought this from a cash generator for £30 and found it had a scrambled memory, missing joystick and a dead oscillator. A previous owner had modded the battery compartment to take a pp3 instead of the usual 6 D cells. I replaced the battery and fitted a knob to the joystick to make it usable. It was years later that my electronic skill were good enough to track the dead oscillator down to a faulty op-amp. With the help of the forum below i was able to replace it and get it up and running.

While i had the thing i bit i decided to add the 'Moog Slayer' and 'Filter FM' mods to it which make it much more fun :D

K!-LABO


"K!-LABO
A collaborative table for work and play.

K!-LABO is a collaborative project created together with WWAA architecture / design
studio and exhibited at Kordegarda galery. WWAA designed the table with
co-working in mind, creating an object which, by it's modular form and lots of edges, allows comfortable work of a whole team.

We elaborated on a concept of collaborative qualities provided by the table and augmented it with sound and visuals. Each of the table edges is treated as kind of a virtual string, movements of which are controlled by the people wandering around. Movement is interpreted both visually and musically, transforming the table into a form of a audiovisual collaborative instrument.

Theme for a damp forest (vvvv edition)


YouTube Uploaded by DevsoundSE on Feb 12, 2012

"Showing some of the possibilities of VVVV + Buzz for making generative music and art.

(The vvvv-patch is super-messy, I know... I was just testing some of the svg-functionality in vvvv.)

So, what's going on?
Well, first an svg-image is generated in vvvv. That's the black and red shape.
Then we extract the node data from the svg and pass it on to a bunch of dots that are beeing rendered in the four windows. MIDIdata is then generated in 8 channels by taking some random rms-values of the node data. For good measure, an FFT-node is placed in vvvv to recieve the music from buzz to manipulate the parameters of the svg-shape. This in turn translates down to the dot-renderers, and will modify the midi-data sent to Buzz. It's called feedback, you dummy.

Any questions?"

paradise of noise with dementia DM 1


YouTube Uploaded by pianoloft on Feb 13, 2012

"sometimes it´s really fun, to do some noisy stuff - music without melody, chords and groove, just sound and pulsations. in this case i used a noise-synth called DEMENTIA DM 1 by AUDIBLE DISEASE, routed through the RAINBOW MACHINE of EARTH QUAKER, a circuit bent touchsynth by DRMOONSTIEN and the pulsation was created and modified with ROTA SYNTH of TRAX and the SHERMAN FILTERBANK.
