MYO - Wearable Gesture Control from Thalmic Labs

Published on Feb 25, 2013 Focals by North

No synths in this one, but I'm sure you can make the connection. I saw this earlier on Gizmodo as well. Note it supports iOS and Android so hopefully you won't have to lug your computer around.

Beetle PR-7 Programmer for the Yamaha TX7, TX216, and TX816 FM synthesizers

"This is a pretty rare Beetle PR-7 hardware programmer for the Yamaha TX7, TX216, and TX816 FM synthesizers. I posted the video in connection with an eBay auction (it's now sold).

I'll keep this posted for folks since right now this video seems to be the only one on YouTube of a PR-7. Too bad I didn't have a compatible synth to use it with.

From the manufacturer:

'The PR-7 is a control panel designed exclusively to control the Yamaha TX7, TX216 - TX816 FM tone generator systems. Programming of patches is now possible with a mock-up of a DX7 front panel including a backlit LCD adjustable display and ROM/RAM cartridge port. Other features include a midi in to allow key data to be sent for audible feed back while working with sounds, cartridge load/save to any module and is rack mountable if desired.'"

PASCO Dual Function Generator + modulation

Published on Feb 26, 2013

"Brief demo of the Pasco dual function generator + modulation generator.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/124109528/vintage-dual-function-generator-2"

"Here we have a modified vintage Pasco scientific dual function generator. This thing has tons of great features and is capable of some amazing sonic architecture.

Each oscillator has 5 waveforms with duty cycle for the pulse and ramp waves. There is also a mixer section with 2 additional inputs. The first input is an 1/8" mono input with gain. One of my favorite patches with this beast is to run audio to the 1/8" in and take the banana out and patch it to the input on Gen 1.

Most of the modulation routing is done through the 2 modulation knobs but you can also experiment with various outs patched to generator 1's input ( white banana jack next to gen 1 ) You can also feed CV to the same input or the 2 CV in's on the front panel.

MODS:
*1/4" CV in for each oscillator ( 0 - 10v )
*1/4" audio out jack

**The dual function generator also comes with 2 banana cables and a 1/4" to banana jack converter so you can modulate Generator 1 with your 1/4" format gear.

**OPERATES ON 115 Volts"
