one oscillator improv from todd barton on Vimeo.
"a short improv using only a single Buchla 259e as the sound source. Shaping, sculpting and processing the sounds created on the 259e through a 207 mixer, a Boss RC-20 Loop Station and an Eventide Space reverb."Monday, October 22, 2012
Mattson SQ816 MIDI Check
Published on Oct 22, 2012 by mmmodsynth
"Testing the MIDI output on the SQ816 prototype.
Everything was controlled by the sequencer.
CV's were controllong two voice chains.
MIDI was controlling a Yamaha QY100, an Alesis QS 8 and an Alesis SR 16 drum machine.
Once the sequencer was running, I just changed from Ping-Pong to random modes and played patch changes on the QY 100 and QS 8 when I changed modes."
psyGEN Granular Multilayer Synthesizer Released
"psyGEN is a granular multilayer synthesizer using samples as source for unique sound generation in the creation of experimental ambient soundscapes, drones, special effects, as well as more traditional synthesizer sounds.
psyGEN comes with approximately 330 samples that can used in the creation of new patches or the user can import their own sample files. Sources can be anything from field recordings, voice recordings, or sounds from other sample sources or synthesizers. There is no limit to what can be used and like all M-RGT synthesizers, experimentation is highly recommended.
psyGEN also provides a 16 track sequencer with up to 64 steps for each track. Each track is essentially a separate synthesizer that can be played back in sync with the other tracks. Mini compositions can be made with one just one sequencer patch, dovetailing these tracks together and applying separate Modulation to each track."
This one comes in recommended via Brian Comnes:
"pretty amazing granular synth tool - you can sequence polyphonous voices within one note on, i.e. the longer you hold the note you can control the layering
comes with a whole bunch of pre-sets - hours of fun - Support Boris!!!"

MarcMarc TD Cross Generator - The only unit in existence
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Some years ago the Dutch artist and engineer MarcMarc designed and built by hand a sound device / synthesizer which was a complete breakthough in the scene of electronic music, synthesizers and unusual sound generators: the TD Cross Generator.
As it offered so many new and unusual features, completely analogue design, am impressive sound quality and a price hardly anybody could afford (about $25'000.-), the Internet community was all over it. There are several sites that have listed the item in a very complementious way like "The Most Beautiful Thing Ever. MarcMarc TD Cross Generator". You can still find some of them when searching for "TD cross generator".
By a very lucky coincidence (such things aren't bought by an order from you favorite music gear retailer) I was able to aquire it - I could honestly hardly believe it. Yes, there was a learning curve but believe it or not, MarcMarc wrote a dedicated manual for this very device! You find it easily when searching for "marc marc cross generator manual". This shows how much passion and dedication the artist put into this device. The manual describes every section, feature and control.

Soon I mastered the unit and was able to put it in good use for several experimental music projects. The connectivity open worlds of possibilities and allows for further interfacing with other equiment - be it modular systems, guitar FX pedals, external filter etc. The cross modulations which gave the unit its name are incredibly cool and inspiring!
As such a unique device derserves, I used it in my studio only, it was never used live. Applying most care, I used it with filtered current only (Equitech) and took care to keep it clean.

After using it for years, I decided it's time to pass it on to the next lucky owner. I got in touch with MarcMarc to confirm this with him, get his ok and ensure a smooth transition and future maintenance. He's a very nice, kind and handsome guy.
So here it is now, the one and only MarcMarc TD Cross Generator in existence goes to its next owner. Chances are that institutions may aquire it (and hopefully actively use it) since it's not only an ingenious musical instrument, but also a piece of art and one of the pinnacles of conception and implementation of analog electronics for music purposes. This unit might be a unique completion of an existing collection of MarcMarc art"
