Synthino XM Surface Mount Assembly How To Make a Synthesizer Main Board IR Oven PCB


Published on Jul 26, 2015 GetLoFi

"www.synthino.com This is how we make the Synthino XM mainboard with excellent results, there are not very many components and once the solder stencil is tweaked with just the right amount of opening for the solder paste, there is virtually no chance for bridges and poor connections. Thanks for watching, please subscribe.

P.S. This also serves as a motion study exercise, I conclude that having parts in the tray parallel to the circuit board and the picking and placing hand is most optimal. Closing the lid after every place prevents accidental spillage of parts, most importantly picking the part inside of the container that is also rotated same as its orientation on the circuit board is advantageous. Handling the parts in their containers is also desired to minimize the spillage and extra travel moves.

'They come cheaper by the dozen you know'

Enjoy."

"Without any filter + a little delay tweedling this Buchla 259 replica is doing a very good jub. It is as present and direct as an acoustic instrument without imitating it. Hearing it you want play meldoies right away. That's very rare in nowadays flat synth culture ;-)"

Sad news in via Juergen W. Last Monday, July 20, Dieter Moebius passed away from cancer. Above is a small playlist featuring his recent work with Michael Rother (ex-Kraftwerk guitarist), followed by some of his earlier work with Brian Eno, and finally his earliest days with Kluster. He was a true pioneer of electronic music and remained active in the electronic music scene throughout his lifetime. You'll find countless videos on his work and influence on YouTube. He formed Kluster in 1969 with Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Tangerine Dream's Conrad Schnitzler. He collaborated with Brian Eno and Conny Plank, and continued his career with ex-Kraftwerk guitarist Michael Rother.

The following is his bio and a couple of pics from Wikipedia. You'll find his website at http://www.dietermoebius.de.

"Dieter Moebius (16 January 1944 – 20 July 2015) was a German/Swiss experimental/ krautrock/ ambient/ electronic musician.

Moebius studied art in Brussels and Berlin and met there Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Conrad Schnitzler (Tangerine Dream). They founded a band Kluster in 1969. After the departure of Schnitzler, they changed their name to Cluster. Later Moebius and Roedelius founded the band Harmonia with Michael Rother (Neu!), which also collaborated with Brian Eno.

Dieter Moebius was involved into numerous projects with such musicians as Conny Plank, Mani Neumeier (Guru Guru).

Moebius toured with Michael Rother as Rother & Moebius in 2007.[1] Additionally, on 27 November 2007, a Harmonia reunion concert was held in Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin, where the band performed together live for the first time since 1976.[2][3] He died on 20 July 2015 of cancer.[4][5]"

This photo was taken live at a concert of ROTHER & MOEBIUS (an electronica /ambient-krautrock collaboration project of Michael Rother & Dieter Moebius) in Frankfurt am Main/Germany (at 'Sinkkasten')."

RIP Moebius, you will be missed.

TSM2015 - Angelo Comino - Strange Synthesizer


Published on Jul 26, 2015 Torino Synth Meeting

"Workshop di Angelo Comino aka MOTOR - Strange Sound Machines ... oltre i soliti synth. Un' interessante chiacchierata sulla sintesi del suono e su metodi alternativi per produrre e manipolare il suono.

- THX: come è stato creato il suono (ricostruzione in SuperCollider)
- Glissando: come usare una vecchia pianola ... e qualche processore ... in stile Ligeti
- Una vera drum machine ed uno esoscheletro: Orchestra Meccanica Marinetti (MaxMSP patches)
- Parlare alla Luna (un progetto di A.Sciaraffa ... che coinvolge tra il resto un radiotelescopio e la luna per generare un eco)

Motor è un artista che vive la sua espressione artistica come una ricerca continua nei linguaggi della contemporaneità. Grazie alla sua profonda conoscenza delle materie scientifiche, nella sua opera quotidiana traspare quella tendenza al sincretismo che denota molta espressione contemporanea. Motor è cresciuto nell'underground torinese spaziando dal sound design alle sceneggiature, dalle installazioni alla produzione multimediale interattiva, dalle performance alle collaborazioni con il teatro sperimentale."
