"experimental ambient. live performance for modular synthesizer and effects.

a rhodes improvisation was recorded into an ER-301 looper unit. that audio runs through mutable clouds as a send effect, then out through delay and reverb pedals.

the ER-301 also generates the vinyl-like crackles with a custom unit: white noise processed via wavefolder, into ladder filter and EQ. r beny and i have been working on this unit for a little while.

two monome ansibles are used. the first, running Cycles, sends unsynced LFOs into attenuators, and then into clouds parameters. the second ansible, running Levels, controls the ER-301 with three encoders on the arc: wet/dry mix, crackle density, and playhead position.

monome earthsea, via buttons on the grid, triggers the looper's reset, which starts playback at the position set with the third arc encoder.

the qubit mixology manages the audio from the ER-301 and clouds, then pushes it through a mackie 802-vlz4 with additional sends to strymon el capistan and bluesky effects. audio recorded with ableton live, video edited with davinci resolve 14b6."

LeafAudio Microphonic Soundbox - Audio Demo

"Here's a first demo of our Microphonic Soundbox. It's ready and will be available as a DIY kit and ready made unit via www.exploding-shed.com

It is an acoustic instrument which I created 20 years ago and finally we made it public now to share it with you. 2 internal contact mics can be amplified (100x Gain) and mixed to the mono out as a line signal. If an external signal is inserted, mic 1 is switched off. Supercool for creating otherworldly sounds and ambiences, great for processing with hard- and software."

Creating a new acoustic synths label for these moving forward. No, guitars don't count. Guitar synths, however, do. :)

Fixing Roland SH-2000, JP-4, Mars, SH-5 style Keyboard Contact Issues

New England Analog Archives
Published on Aug 3, 2017

"This video is an excerpt from a repair of a Roland SH-2000. The keyboard was having contact issues on many notes. The issue was that the 2 bus bars were very dirty. I cleaned them, and this solved the issue.
This portion of the repair took a little over two hours, due to the amount of disassembly and reassembly required. I had to cut out most of the footage to cut this down to a 10 minute segment."

I hear a synth cat.

"2017/8/5-6 に開催する Maker Faire Tokyo 2017 に出展する、Raspberry Op.4 です。奇楽堂&Company I-02-02 で展示します。

音源部に Raspberry Pi を使った 4 オペレータの FM 音源です。

Yamaha DX1 を彷彿とさせる 7 セグ LED によるアルゴリズム表示部や、EG セグメントの遷移に合わせて光る LED などの演出で、音作りを楽しめるよう工夫しました。

搭載の音色エディットパネルだけでは、細かな音色エディットはできませんが、専用の iOS アプリから音色データを Bluetooth MIDI 経由で転送することができるようになっています。"

Googlish:

"Raspberry Op.4 to be exhibited at Maker Faire Tokyo 2017 to be held on 2017/8 / 5-6 This exhibition will be on display at Bizarre House & Company I-02-02.

It is an FM sound source of 4 operators using Raspberry Pi as sound source part.

We devised so that we can enjoy making sounds with the 7 seg LED algorithm display section reminiscent of Yamaha DX 1 and the LEDs that shine according to the EG segment transition.

Although it is impossible to edit detailed tone colors only with the built-in tone color edit panel, tone color data can be transferred from the dedicated iOS application via Bluetooth MIDI. "
