Pittsburgh Modular Logic Banks Demo Video

Published on Nov 6, 2014 Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers

"Logic Banks is a CMOS based logic calculator. A voltage controlled or manually switchable truth table. Two independent logic banks provide simultaneous access to six unique boolean logic operations. AND, NAND, OR, XOR, NOR, XNOR. More information is available at pittsburghmodular.com/logic-banks."

"The exciting world of Boolean logic has arrived in Pittsburgh with the fifth module of our limited edition line.

Logic Banks is a CMOS based logic calculator. A voltage controlled or manually switchable truth table. Two independent logic banks provide simultaneous access to six unique boolean logic operations. AND, NAND, OR, XOR, NOR, XNOR.

The Logic Banks module is split into two identical sections. Input values for each section can can be assigned manually using toggle switches or with the X IN and Y IN gate inputs. The gate output state of each logic operation is determined by the X and Y input values following the truth table below.

The Logic Banks is capable of single bit calculations and simple memory processes. For example, patching from the NOR output of each section into the Y Input of the opposite section creates a last used memory circuit. The OR outputs will remain lit in the section with the last high X input regardless of the current state of the X input. Similar setups provide other interesting results.

The module is available now exclusively at pittsburghmodular.com. Production of the Logic Banks was limited to 50 modules and once it is gone, it is gone."

Plasma Globe EM-Synth

Published on Nov 6, 2014 Dani Dögenigt

"A demonstration of a new instrument I am developing - main part is a plasma globe with an inductor coil and some amplifiers to gain up the electromagnetic signals. In the future this will be further developed into a complete 'electromagnetic (EM) synth'."

nonlinearcircuits - 32

Published on Nov 6, 2014 cirtcele

"This module is based on an idea from Warren Burt and originally implemented by J. Driscoll. This version has a 'bad at counting' input that makes it go a bit crazy. Btw - the module is a 32-1 or 1-32 switch, put in 32 different signals and a clock signal, then each signal is routed to the output OR put in one input signal and this will be routed to each of the 32 outputs one each clock count"
