"Note the area right above the display is coming up a bit. Via this listing: "I have been the original owner of this amazing and very powerful synthesizer. I recently fully tested it and all the keys are responsive, all functions are working and it sounds beautifull. Shows some signs of wear but in overall still looks great considering it's age. The only issue i encountered was the Floppy Drive, i tried formatting a double density disk but it just gave me a message that says "disk is not formatted" I looked at the drive inside and its really dusty. I honestly dont have the time to clean or fix it. Aside from this everything else works great."

A few new pics. This OB-Mx was posted back in August. Same seller.

"Rare and classic analog-digital hybrid synth designed by Don Buchla.

Works perfectly! (Added photos showing it powered on)

Recently (about a month ago) refurbished by one of the best techs in SoCal (Montoya) and is in excellent electronic and cosmetic condition.

These are super hard to find with 8-12 voices, even harder to find in this condition."

3D Renders of Modular Synthesizer

Published on Jan 19, 2019 Marc Weerts

No audio. Just thought these were kind of cool.

"A very simple test render of a model of my modular synth, based mainly on Doepfer modules with by Dreadbox. I normally like to fully 3d model my synths but in this case that was kind of over the top, as it would basically have involved modelling each module, switch, slider, LED as well as the cables and the screws attaching each module to the case. So in the end I decided to film the system in action and put that on a simple, square piece of geometry. The black case is a different object, but I wanted to see if I could get away with doing it that simple and as long as I don't turn the case too much, it all seems to be quite effective in fooling you that there's depth to it all."

Qu-Bit Nebulae, InSight lander and the Martian Winds

Published on Jan 20, 2019 The Mad Music Machine

"We were excited to add a Qu-Bit Nebulae to the Mad Music Machine, especially as it is powered by a Raspberry Pi and the Mad Music Machine began it's life as a small network of Raspberry Pis.

Our last Raspberry Pi project used our Astro Pi code (which ran on the International Space Station) to make music, so we thought we should follow up with another space-based project for this video.

We downloaded the raw 'Martian Winds' sounds from the NASA website and loaded them onto the Qu-Bit Nebulae. The Nebulae has independent control of (playback) speed and pitch which allowed us to bring the 'wind' sounds up more into the audible range.

We created an 'industrial' rhythm by using a 'sample and hold' LFO within Bitwig (via our Expert Sleepers ES8) matched to our Make Noise Tempi clock. This modulation signal was used to 'Freeze' the output of the Nebulae.

We also created wavetables for our E352 by loading the downloaded 'Martian Winds' into the Synthesis Technology WaveEdit program. We sequenced the E352 with our Make Noise René 2 to create the "Touchdown Confirmed" bass line / melody.

We loaded the NASA commentary of the landing into our 4MS Stereo Triggered Sample which was sequenced and synchronised with the rest of the patch using our Tip Top Circadian Rhythms.

All sounds within the patch were generated from the InSight mission with the exception of the Hexinverter Kick, Snare and Clap.

We recorded the audio using Bitwig Studio with our Nektar Panorama P6 controlling the Mixer.

And finally, following previous feedback, Caitlin's voice was recorded using a RØDE Smartlav+ Lavalier Microphone.

We are aware the video focusing is not great in this video so that is the next thing we need to work on!"
