Bishop Miscellany Eurorack Module Prototype ░▒▓ Shakmat ● ● BrknFoot Dub ▓▒░

Published on Mar 13, 2013 MrBDust·3 videos

"Hi

this is the demo of a homemade module made with an Arduino Uno and a mcp4922 chip. This module is a dual stepped CV gate recorder, that s to say a kind of weird ASR.

First Knob allows to control your loop length (32 steps, 24 steps, 16, 12, 8, 6,4, 3, 2, 1). This function divides the loop in a certain number of segments (4 segment is the loop length is 8), the second knob allows you to choose the segment you are playing.

Switches are REC, A/B (you can record two different phrases and switch them), cut (the gate output 1 is hacked by the clock), open (put the gate output 1 to +5V - you can combine it with the cut fonction and the gate output 1 is now a copy of the clock input)."

"Dub improvisation on a eurorack modular system, with a slice of machinedrum spiced with an eventide space and a line 6 dl4. Patches use my own modules prototypes, a bishop miscellany (dual cv gate recorder) and knight gallop (a dual dual euclidean sequencer)

Synth line 1 is Luna Modular VEM. Pitch is cved from pattern programmed into CV1 slot of HexZone. FM, filter cutoff, and sync from Maths.

Synth line 2 is Livewire AFG alien saw output. Filter is gen 1 Harvestman Polivoks with mod from QPLFO, pinged by Switch output of HZ. Pitch is CV2 slot from HZ.

Time to multitrack it."

The Millenium Falcon Meeblip by 7heScissorFiend

via 7heScissorFiend on etsy

"This is a build of a monophonic Meeblip Synthesizer It is a custom model which functions exactly like the current version except that it has no patch memory.

It is a full featured MIDI synth, all parameters are assignable to midi CC numbers.
It is powered by a 9v center positive AC adapters like most BOSS pedals.

This means that it has:
2 DCO - 1 DCF - 1 LFO - Distortion - Noise - FM - Portamento - and More!

For simplicity, none of the controls are labeled, however it takes less than a day to get an intimate feel for the controls. A diagram of the knobs and switches can be found in the pictures as well as being very similar to the layout of the stock Meeblip.

And yes, the Antenna Dish IS the cutoff knob. ;)"

SMOV0064

In size InsWorks is like eurorack but in voltage it's more like a Moog modular. The power supply is 15v +/- in the SA01 and SB01 1 AMP, in SC01, 3 AMP.

Oberheim Buchla OB-Mx Vintage Synth

via this auction

See this post for the story behind the OB-Mx.

"Oberheim OB-Mx synthesizer designed by Don Buchla. Version 1.04 software dated 6/20/94; inside the unit it says it was manufactured on 8/3/94. Cosmetically in VG+ shape as depicted with light rack rash and scratching top bottom front sides from having been inserted into and removed from racks. Has three voice cards (I think this means "six voices" because each card has two voices). Everything works! Manual is available on-line. Will be heavy to pack and ship; local pick-up in the Los Angeles, CA area welcome. I know there is a lot of debate about the virtues and deficits of this synth but it always has sounded fine to me, you need to run it through some signal processing (reverb, compression) to get the most out of it."
