"This mini synth expander has the same controls as the synth part of Rolands famous MC-202, which is virtually identical to the SH-101, less waveform selection of the mod source. There is a nice audio mixer thrown in to add up to two external instruments, sadly, after the filter. The VCA is switchable between linear and exponential mode, and has a CV in for controlling it from an outside source (ie, I've mapped velocity from my MIDI keyboard, thru a MIDI-CV box to control the CMU's volume). This is a surprisingly strong sounding box."  Note there is no MIDI in.  You need CV to control it.

Overview

Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers Synthesizer Block Overview
Wired for instant access to classic tones without needing a single patch cable, the Synthesizer Block is a complete semi-modular monophonic synthesizer. The Synthesizer Block is 100% analog and 100% eurorack compatible with a complete set of patch points able to override the internal audio and CV signal path.

The Synthesizer Block was designed to be the core of any modular system. Each major component is fully patchable and can function independent to the rest of the module. This allows the functionality of the Oscillator, Filter, LFO, Envelope Generator and VCA to be broken apart and used like standalone modules."

"This semi-improvised piece is recorded live, in one take. It features the equipment that is being evaluated to build a mobile Command Center. The EMW200/300, small format Mackie mixer , and effects pedals by Electro Harmonix, Line 6, Strymon and two Korg Kaoss pads. The warty cymbal has a pickup on it and is being processed by pedals and one Kaoss pad. The reverb spring that is just off camera is running through the other Kaoss pad. The EMW is being processed by a Line 6 POD that is being controlled with a foot pedal."

Live Glitch Experiment

Published on Jun 20, 2013 millolab·30 videos

"Headphones highly recommended.
This is just an experiment. I was listening to Telefon Tel Aviv recently... and i wanted to give it a try to achieve a similar glitch effect. Not sure i made it... but at least i had fun. No computer was used, aside a multiband compressor on Premiere. Everything is played live. Machinedrum goes into Nord Modular G2 where i used a patch i programmed with 8 delays, for the glitch effect.

Cheers!"
