"Continuing down the same explorations as my earlier Buchla Wavefolded Bass and Beat Fun stuff. This time with a Buchla 245 Sequential Voltage Source driving the ship. For better audio: http://soundcloud.com/user7621213/buc..."
Note the Modulation section with three selectable buttons and Speed & Depth knobs. The next section appears to have an octave pitch switch and semitone knob. You can see what looks like a pulse with graphic below the orange label to the left of the bottom knob. The large white knobs is reminiscent of wavetable knobs on Waldorf synths. If you can make out more, feel free to comment.
You can see a few the designs Axel Hartmann's Design Box was responsible for here.
"I did two videos during the Fall season of 2014 titled "Rear Window" and "Rear Window 2". This video is very similar to the second one where I routed the output of the last effect pedal in the chain into a pair of mixer inputs instead of the mixer's effects return input to allow generating (mostly) controlled feedback.
So all sounds you are hearing in the first part of this video were created by manipulation of feedback resonance/howl in the mixer and the effects pedals and was done as you see it here, a real-time experimentation (with some edits to chop out the less interesting sections).
This video also contains a 'bonus' part two. I had forgotten to press record on the Marantz PMD-661 flash recorder I use to capture audio coming directly out of the mixer and when I was done with this take I was to tired and annoyed to try again. During editing though I listened to it and even though the video camera audio quality wasn't very good, I still kind of liked it. Not really good enough to be a video of it's own but maybe interesting enough to be a bonus track? ;-)
Equipment list in order of connection:
Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer effects loop output
TC Electronic Hall Of Fame Mini reverb pedal
MXR/Dunlop Octave Fuzz pedal
Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar pedal
TC Electronic Flashback delay pedal
TC Electronic Hall Of Fame reverb pedal
Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer stereo channel input
Part two adds:
Novation Ultranova keyboard synth (lead/melody noodles)
Korg microStation keyboard synth (ambient rhythm and piano notes)"
"A while ago I was on the lookout for videos demonstrating Strymon Big Sky Reverberator, Moogerfooger mf 101 Low pass Filter & Moogerfooger mf-102 Ring modulator and it was kind of like falling into a bottomless black hole with zillions of clips with nerdy guitar players... :-) If the effect sounds great on guitar there is no guarantee it will sound likewise on a trumpet.. I couldn´t really find any horn players using the effects I was interested in so I thought I´d post this clip if anybody out there is like me and always on the prowl for new sounds.."
Playing trumpet with MoogerFooger mf-101 Low Pass Filter, Strymon Big Sky & Ableton.

"Recorded/filmed this track while I was practicing my 'electronic setup'. I was playing my trumpet through Strymon Big Sky Reverberator, & MoogerFooger mf-101 Low pass Filter. (with an expression pedal) I used Ableton to record/ create the music. (play in HD for best sound/picture) Hope you like it."
"After a new firmware for the Novation Launch Control XL it's now possible to use this controller with a USB Host to MIDI converter. This means the Launch Control and Launch Control XL can now send MIDI to hardware without the need for a computer.... Happy Days!!"
"Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century."
Back in the “old days”, producers and engineers created delay and echo effects using tape machines. Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century.

The Tape simulation includes all relevant aspects for the recreation of a faithful analog tape sound:
• Compression and Saturation
• Tape hiss
• Tape head bias
• Wow and Flutter (Tape speed instability)
• Smooth speed / delay time changes
Three feedback filters with hipass/lowpass and bandpass characteristic simplify the creation of authentic dub echo effects.
The built-in Limiter allows for endless feedback sounds.
Use live input from any source - Microphone, Guitar, Audiobus and Inter App Audio - or take a song from your iTunes library for processing.
Features:
• Multi-tap delay machine
• 24 taps for rhythmic delay effects
• Tape simulation ( Saturation, Noise, Flutter )
• Alias free tape saturation through oversampling.
