Prototype MIDI-CV box for Novation Circuit

Published on Jan 2, 2016 Jason Hotchkiss

"A quick demo of sequencing analog gear using Novation Circuit and a compact MIDI-CV box I am working on. The gear used is a CB55 drum voice board (DR55 clone from circuitbenders.co.uk), Moog Minitaur, Pittsburgh Modular System 10.

The PCB shown here is a prototype, but I hope to have them on sale soon. It has a 3.5mm MIDI input jack so a simple stereo 3.5mm cable can connect it to Circuit's MIDI output. I've been working on bus powering it, but an external supply is used for this clip.

Support two mono channels with Note CV, Gate, Velocity CV (one for each Circuit synth track), and four drum gates (one for each Circuit drum track). Also an additional drum accent gate (when any
drum triggered at max MIDI velocity) which can double as a clock out.

Built around PIC16F1825 microcontroller with MCP4728 Quad 12-bit I2C DAC with on-board charge pump used to get full CV range.

I hope to have these on sale soon on my Tindie store https://www.tindie.com/stores/hotchk155/ ... watch this space

Cheers for watching!"

In The Mode - Beatstep Pro, Moog Werkstatt, System 1m, Mopho, Microbrute, Electribe EMX1

Published on Jan 2, 2016 Earmonkey Music

"Today's musical journey has lots of noise in it. Drums from the EMX1, Beatstep Pro sequencing a Mode-esque bass line on the Mopho. Drone from the Werkstatt, and some funky leads and noises from the System 1m and Microbrute. It is what it is. All the System 1m effects are coming only from that unit. The Werktstatt and Microbrute are going through the Roland RE-301 Space Chorus."

Devil Fish- True Profressionals

Published on Jan 2, 2016 TB-303 Devil Fish

"Just for fun, live acid breakbeat jam! Using the Devil Fish with the Overdrive knob(the amount of oscillator sent to the filter) turned up to 4 where 2 is the TB-303 normal setting, this gives the Devil Fish a larger than life aggressive bass tone. Running it through the Boss Metal Zone distortion pedal with distortion at a low setting, with the level and eq set to add to the grunt. I also have the Headphone Out of the Devil Fish routed back into itself via the Audio in to filter, which when I flick the Audio In to Filter switch on momentarily, you can hear it frequency modulate and squeal a little.

The Tr-606 is receiving Accent & note CV data to the Dynamic Bank Switching ins, from the Devil Fish which is turned on later in the jam.

Gate Out from the Devil Fish, and Headphone Out from the 606 to a 12 stage frequency divider are the clocking sources for the Eurorack modules René, Metropolis, and the Trigger Riot which are all modulating the Phonogene with the Sample from Scooby Doo (cartoon). The Metropolis modulates the Devil Fishes Filter freq In, the Trigger Riot triggers the Slide In and the High Tom from the 606 triggers the Accent in.

The TT-303 Bass Bot has a clean signal path (all effects its running through are in bypass mode)

The TR-8 has a small role with a noise hit and hand clap, and also the intro kick drum."
