"Module a-137-2 is another version of a wave multiplier. in contrast to the a-137-1 wavemultiplier i the a-137-2 generates four phase-shifted copies of a vco signal applied to the audio input. the four shifted signals are added to the original signal to obtain a fat sound similar to five independent vcos. the phase shifting is made by a simple circuit that works only for sloped signals like sawtooth, triangle or sine, but not for rectangles or pulses"
"Fancy handmade in the US midi controller. The Manta is similar to a Buchla/Serge touchplate but with USB! Beautiful wood panels and backing with a metal touchplate makes for a very expressive instrument/controller with a very quality feel. Mine is version 2 with bi-colour leds.
The Manta is designed to be incredibly flexible depending on how you wish to use it. It makes a fantastic complement to a MAX/MSP, PureData or modular setup but can be used with any DAW such as Live or Logic. I've used it as velocity-sensitive 48 note keyboard, which I found useful for breaking old keyboard habits. You can assign the little hexagons to pretty much any midi parameter though. It can be a sequencer, X/Y pad, keyboard, fader. A lot of potential in a small package.
It has a USB connection so you have to interface with the computer for now, though Snyderphonics are apparently developing a little breakout box with midi and CV for analogue and other external gear."
"Track from my new album "Free Pussy Riot!": http://theklirrfaktor.bandcamp.com/al... [NSFW cover art]
Including samples recorded @ the "Black Thursday" (30.09.2010) in Stuttgart.
Modular patch (as always) recorded without overdubs.
The recording of the vocals was a hard one man show (singing, recording, filming) :D
However - we're 99%!
(First time working with Premiere Elements instead of iMovie - so sorry for my video skills :D)
"A little demo of the ADDAC701 VC Oscillator to show what it sounds like. The 701 is the only sound source used in this video. The output of the vca was recorded directly through the camera's mic input.
Other gear used:
Blue lantern - The Basics (envelope generator, vca, lfo, mixer)
Sequentix - Cirklon (32 tracks step sequencer)"
via the seller: "I bought this over 10 years ago, the guy who i purchased it from was "apparently" one of the Studio engineers for FAITHLESS and selling it on behalf of the band, according to him it was used in some of there productions. I don't have 100% proof of this but its been a good talking point over the years!"
