Keyboard Magazine investigates the new King Korg virtual analog synth at NAMM 2013

Published on Jan 24, 2013 keyboardmag1·219 videos

"King Korg is a 24-voice virtual analog synth with three oscillators per voice. Thanks to modeling technology from the Kronos, it sounds incredibly smooth--unless you want it to sound rude, in which case, look out!"

Frankensnail - Ready To Rumble


Published on Jan 25, 2013 elohess2·74 videos

"Next Circuit Bending toy is ready. It's again one of th Vtech snail. I've collected a lot of them and plan to join all in "band". Each snail should be different and will have an own name.

This is 'Franksnail'.

Powered by an Arduino sequencer and modulated with signals from some simple CMOS oszillators (Lunettas). This is only a feature demonstration. I've done this video for myself, cause I often have the problem to remember after a while how the toys work, when I use them again after month. :-) The sequencer is based on a source I've written as a plattform for a simple, timing stable sequencer for the Arduinos"

Plan B Music Easel

via Peter Grenader on Facebook

"With NAMM behind this, and a new Buchla Music Easel before us, I can now show something I have been working on for close to two years which is now pointless. The Voice - my offering of an Easel type instrument. Circuit board almost completed, even funds available for development. NO use now. Bummed, but strangely relieved at the same time.
