CYCLE & PSYC03 Demo No Talking


Ghost In Translation

"In this video I demonstrate CYCLE and PSYC03 capabilities.

Both modules are based on Teensy 4.0, connected together via midi jack in the back. My modules are based on Eurorack physical format but have however no patch cables in the front but rather midi and audio jacks in the back.

CYCLE is a modular monophonic sequencer. It is based on my Motherboard12 platform.

PSYC03, alias PerCussive SYnth 03, is the result of the combination of a Syncussion and a TB303, an acid percussive synth. It is based on my Motherboard9 platform.

"History

Wolfgang Palm is a German musician and inventor who was the founder and owner of Palm Products GmbH (PPG) and the inventor and creator of various pioneering technical designs for analog and digital synthesizers. He is widely acknowledged as the father of digital synthesis and as a trendsetter in the use of computer technology in the making of electronic music.

Palm's interest in synthesis technology began as a keyboardist in various local bands in his hometown of Hamburg, Germany. His namesake corporation began operating as early as 1975, manufacturing modular synthesizers in small numbers for electronica act Tangerine Dream and other musicians.

Palm is arguably most famous for the invention of wavetable synthesis, a concept which he developed in the late 1970s when he created his Minimoog-like synthesizer - the 1020 - featuring digitally controlled oscillators instead of the voltage-controlled oscillators that his 1002 synthesizer and all other analog synthesizers of that time were using. He also created the 360 Wavecomputer that would later become the renowned PPG Wave series. Palm's design was the impetus for the creation of the highly successful PPG Wave synthesizer, which was used by numerous bands throughout the 1980s and beyond.
