Amazing Machines' BRUTE VRS - Virtual Recall Sheet for the MINIBRUTE
Published on Nov 8, 2014 AmazingMachines
MiniBrutes on eBay
"BRUTE VRS is a Virtual Recall Sheet for the Arturia MINIBRUTE, which allows users to digitally store patches made on the Hardware Synth.
Although the BRUTE VRS does not generate any sound on it’s own, special attention to detail has been taken to achieve visual feedback that is as close as possible to the hardware instrument, including the LEDs for Octave Selection, Envelopes, LFO and Arpeggiator Tempo.
The Pitch and Mod Wheels respond to incoming MIDI Data from the MINIBRUTE, while the Envelopes’ LEDs blink, in a similar fashion to the hardware, when notes are played and depending on how the Envelopes are set. The Arpeggiator Tempo can be Synced to a DAW’s Tempo using the Clock Source Switch. This level of detail may sound trivial at first, for a simple Virtual Recall Sheet, but it’s essential to allow the end user to store and load patches fast and easy.
Features:
- 1 Reaktor Ensemble
- Virtual representation of every single parameter on the hardware instrument
- Virtual representation of all the blinking LEDs, as close as possible to the hardware response
- Protect the environment using software instead of paper to store your patches
Compatibility:
Native Instruments' Reaktor 5.8 or newer.

New Esoteric Friend Triadex Muse VS Bahntier Random
Published on Apr 12, 2012 Creatures From the Black
"The Triadex Muse is a sequencer based synthesizer. It was produced in 1972. It was a deterministic event generator that used early digital integrated circuits to generate an audio output that could sound very musical. It was designed by Edward Fredkin and Marvin Minsky at MIT. It is an algorithmic music generator: it uses logic circuits to produce a sequence of notes based on the settings of various parameters. It has four small sliders that control Volume, Tempo, Pitch, and Fine Pitch. It is not known how many were made, but they are considered very collectable.
It was known to be used by the first wave of electronic musicians in the Philadelphia area in the late 70s. Users included: Charles Cohen, Lenny Seidman, Jeff Caine, George Keutemeyer, Rex X Ray and Stephan Spera, Paul Wozniki and the groups: Heavenside Layer, Ghostwriters, Watersports and The Orchestra of Philadelphia Electronic Musicians.
Muse was also used during the WXPN radio show Stars End by host Gino Wong in the fall of 1977.
The Muse is the subject of U. S. Patent 3610801.
For years, the Muse was a featured exhibit at the Museum of Science, Boston. The signage explained the device's algorithmic (and deterministic) approach to the creation of its seemingly random music. Far from being random, its preset "song" played continuously—and was even given a name, "Museum Musings," by the staff.
During her time as a fellow at the Center for Advanced Visual Studies, Maryanne Amacher famously composed much of her 'eartone' music using the device given to her by Marvin Minsky."

"This auction is for Korg PS3100 was completely restored by one of the most prominent analog Synthesizer repair shop in the country, and in excellent working condition. It essentially a functional collectors item. There are, however two minor issue that haven't been addressed during the restoration (due to lack of parts) One is that left-most, highest key (upper E) does not make sound (that's because it need a chip KORG35-K710 that is shown in the last picture), if we manage locate that part before the auction ends we will replace it. Also, the resonator #2 is fairly week but it still functional. Other than that, the synth is working great and sounds incredible! The wooden case was also completely restored and it's essentially new!
Korg PS3100 is the first of the PS3xxx polyphonic analog synths that made a splash in the analog music world in the 70s. Many prominent musician used it and some still use it to this day due it its unique sound characteristic that is practically impossible to duplicate by any imitators or VA synths.
This synth is extremely rare, particularly in this beautiful condition (just look at the pictures)."
