Malekko / Wiard Joystick Axis Generator (JAG)

YouTube Uploaded by bigcitymusic on Feb 29, 2012

"Here we are checking out the super-awesome Malekko / Wiard Joystick Axis Generator, or JAG. There are four different drone tones running into the four inputs of a 4ms VCA Matrix, using two outputs summed to our Eventide Space reverb pedal. We're opening the eight(!) VCA's with the JAG being controlled by an Analogue Systems rs220 joystick module. Sweet!

NOTE: Do not watch this video while under medication."

YouTube Uploaded by midierror on Mar 4, 2012

"This used to be a PSS-140. I did the now traditional `FM lines` bend to this, then decided to rewire everything to random locations. The original switches control the FM lines and the buttons to the left change the direction of the wiring."
