Elektron Model:Samples Drum Machine Sample Player - Perfect Circuit Demo

Published on Jan 22, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"The Model:Samples is a new sample based machine from Elektron, that has knob per function control over parameters and pressure sensitive trigger pads. The Model:Samples brings Elektron's powerful sequencer to a lower price groove box, which still has parameter locks, per voice length as well as midi in and out. There are six sample voices each with distortion and filter effects. A delay and reverb master send effect can effect all of the voices. Notes and triggers can either be played into the sequencer in real time with optional quantizing, or programmed in step by step with probability options and micro-timing.

Introduction to the KOMA Field Kit [Episode 106]

Published on Jan 21, 2019 CatSynth TV

"We introduce the KOMA Field Kit, and a standalone box with combines modular synthesis with electro-acoustic features such as driving external DC actuators (solenoids, motors, etc.), contact mics, a CV-controlled radio input (FM, AM, shortwave), and more.

We go through a few short examples:
1) Contact mic
2) Radio
3) Solenoid and objects in the Field Kit lid
4) Solenoid and more objects in a pray bowl.
5) Radio feedback and distortion with the speaker + contact mic
6) Running feedback through the KOMA SVF-201 filter module"

A new mechanical sonic creation from ::vtol::

"page - http://vtol.cc/filter/works/sonometer

Sonometer is an automatic sound object (monochord) which changes string pitch (tension) by using an ultra-slow motor. It takes 40 minutes to reach the highest note and 36 minutes to drop it down. Because of extremely low speed, it's almost impossible to recognize changes of the pitch in the realtime, only by comparing the pitch after at least 30 seconds.

It uses electromagnetic coil feedback bow aka eBow to activate the string and piezo pickup. Additional electromagnetic solenoid is used as retrigger and random rhythmical element."

"Time is one of the most complex issues in contemporary sound art. On the one hand the category of time has always served as dividing line, separating music (as a particular form of sound art) from a number of other sub-types of creative interpretation of sound. On the other hand, this measure is used to indicate the extent of the audience’s engagement in the perception of a work of art: whether this is performance art, a musical performance or listening to a sound installation.

Recently I have been creating more and more frequently works arranged around some virtually imperceptible or insignificant processes and phenomena. To all intents and purposes, this is based on the practice of seeking the boundaries of perception and the frontiers of the feasible, which is on each occasion transformed into an attempt to reduce to its logical conclusion a work of art, whose concept emerges from similar studies.

Sonometer is simultaneously a sound installation and instrument, a homage to the heritage of Alvin Lucier and reference to contemporary sound object automation experiments. The super-slow engine draws out over 40 minutes one single string which oscillates in response to an electromagnetic bow. The speed of uptake of the tone is so insignificant that the difference in the pitch can only be perceived after the passage of a certain amount of time. After attaining the maximum tension point, the reverse process starts, taking in total 36 minutes."

Self-patched Mutant Machine

Published on Jan 22, 2019 Hexinverter Électronique

"@divkidvideo has been doing some great videos of self-patched modules. We did one of those with the Mutant Machine a while back. I thought we'd do another one.

Very simple patch - just the clock output running into the trigger. Monitoring the main output and the wave 1 output. There is a patch cable going into the Membrane decay CV input but it's not attached to anything (promise!)"

Korg PolySix Kiwisix and Power Supply Upgrade SN 381609

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

This a nice example of a Korg Polysix, with those sweet 80's graphics and wood sides. There are some small scratches here and there and some wear on the wood sides but overall it really looks great! All pots have been cleaned and it been calibrated and sounds fantastic. The Korg Polysix is a fantastic synth in its own right but adding the Kiwisix mod, takes it to a whole other level.

Here's what it adds:
-New KLM367 Board
-512 storage presets upgraded from 64
-MIDI capability
-Key Transpose
-Internal Master Clock
-Internet Upradeble
-Upgraded arpeggiator mode
-Sequencer mode
-Much more reliable stable power supply board"

Synthi A built with Original Parts

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is a Synthi that was recently built with original parts supplied by EMS, along with Derek Revell’s MK3 replica circuit boards.

This is as close as you will get without buying a brand new one from EMS, which you can’t do as the Synthi A list was closed some time ago.

It comes in an original Spartanite case, the faceplate is an original from the current Cornwall run, supplied by EMS, as are the joystick, cliff knobs and even the speaker grille cloth!

The meter, Jones socket and Bulgin power socket are original and authentic.
It uses an original Sealectro matrix and will come with a full set of patch pins.

It has been used to make 2 albums, and several mixes and sounds exactly as it should."
