"This buss is designed for use with the small PSU board.
It has 10 connectors, space for decoupling caps, LEDs, 8 mounting holes and spade mounts. It has connections at both ends so that it can be daisy chained. The PCB is 2mm thick to reduce flex when plugging/unplugging."
"This is a re-boot of the bindubba3 sequencer, tho there have been a few changes.
It is designed to be used with the Divide & Conquer.
This sequencer has 6 inputs to control the stepping. Two clock inputs control the count in horizontal and vertical directions. The two jump inputs send the next step somewhere else that depends on the 2^2 and 2^3 counts of the chips of both step directions......ie somewhat uncontrollable but it enables more complex patterns to be created. The two direction inputs change the direction of the count.
There are two voltage controlled slewed outputs, two CV outputs giving the same CV, 1 inverted CV output and 16 gate outputs.
"In keyboard mode, the Quadrantid Swarm can play 8 notes of simple polyphony, one for each key. This video shows some badly played chords and melody on the 'String' instrument, without any of the wave folder so you get an idea of the oscillator sound. I am shaping the sound with the two filters, plus ping the resonance and sweeping the resonance to demonstrate the timbres that are hiding within"

"Here's the new ADE-50 3x VCA from Abstract Data. A mega handy, totally discrete, all analogue VCA capable of working with audio and CV. There's examples of using all 3 VCAs to expand a basic audio path, one for CV and another for AM modulation (audio rate amplitude modulation, try it, it's ace!). Timings below should you wish to skip around.

"'Jam' with Roland JD-XA and TR-808
Here's my first tune with the JD-XA. I'm very surprised at the variety of sounds in it. I pre-programmed the TR-808 and the BASS line with the MSQ-700. Then I played the 'aJuno; (Kebu) patch for the pluck type sound. Next I added the 'Massive Pads' patch for the chords. Finally I used the 'Pomoma' patch for the lead. Thanks for listening."
"Been awhile since I've made a Minilogue video. Here is a little improvised piece using the Minologue's sequencer and some live bass notes. I'm running the output through Valhalla Vintage Verb."
