Modified Casio HT-700 with Drum Pitch and Moog Slayer Filter Mod

via this auction

"modified Casio HT-700 Synthesizer with Moog Slayer filter mods and Drum Pitch mods. The filter mod is MUCH better than the one done on the wimpy Poly 800, and the drum pitch is insane! The filter mod allows you to adjust Cutoff and Resonance in REAL time, and the VCA is analog."

Bridge Of Thighs

"Take three Q106 triangle oscillators(at 32', 16', and 8'). Mix and run through an STG Wavefolder, then into an STG Post-Lawsuit Lowpass Filter. Send the filter output to an Oakley Deep Equinoxe Phaser. Take the output of that and add a smidgen of delay. And that's it.

Oh, it also helps to have three channels of sequencing. The master clock is a Q960. Running at half speed from that is a Voltage Mini-Store. And at 1/8 speed is a Q119. Mix all three sequencer outputs, and you have the pitch CV. The Deep Equinoxe has its modulation output driven by an SSL Tap Tempo LFO with an upward sawtooth rather than its onboard LFO.

As always, the shakey, out of focus camera work is my bête noire. Sorry about that!"
