EMW-300 first tests

EMW-300 first tests from EMW - Electronic Music Works on Vimeo.
One of the first tests of the assembled EMW-300 prototype. There is no external effects, what seems to be a delay effect is a 2ms trigger pulse that was used to modulate the VCO frequency. Is has a very powerfull and raw sound and is VERY fun to play with. The video was recorded in a hurry on my home LAB with my iPhone, sorry for that

MacBeth micromacs off to Assembly

via Ken MacBeth on Facebook

"This is one of the largest consignments for assembly that I have done to date! Seen here- box loads of component parts for 100 micromac-r units and 150 micrmac-d units! This is what goes out today- my suppliers Farnell and Rapid Electronics are to send out yet more to the assembly plant!"

"You can even see the micromac-r at the top- it's going to the assembly plant too- they are building the units completely right down to the faceplates and knobs!"

Someone asked about the parts supplier and Ken answered:

"I use Farnell and Rapid as my primary parts suppliers- apart from those parts that get manufactured abroad. RS comes next if anything is missing. The quantity orders that I place bring things to a very economical purchase point- well under the catalogue break points that you must read on RS and Mouser. It also depends on what your buying! If mouser haver a greater range of stock- which I doubt- I probably don't use these parets anyway! I've found Farnell ultra speedy...and Rapid...well, rapid!"

I love these posts because they give us an insight as to what happens behind the scenes. I think it is great that Ken and others for that matter, share this with us on Facebook.
