The Impossibilitron
YouTube via x9spaceman — January 19, 2008 — "Yes, I have too much time on my hands.
Don't ask why I built this, I really don't know.
I got this box at a yard sale for 5 bucks, and stuck all this stuff & parts all over it.
6 Guitar strings, a bass string, a ship whistle, a jaw harp, 2 Morse code tappers, and a big knob & phone rotary that do nothing."

MARDIS ORAC speech synth / communication aid
"This is for a MARDIS ORAC speech synth / communications aid. I think it was designed as a tool for disabled people to communicate by pressing buttons in a stephen hawkins kind of manner, and i do know that these things are obscenely expensive to buy, but i have no idea if this one is working properly or even at all. This could possibly be down to the fact that i have no idea how it should operate but all i know is that you plug in an external 9v power supply, one of the keyboard LED's lights up and some blocks appear on the screen. Other than that its a mystery to me, maybe you need some kind of overlay in the front before it'll do anything, or possibly you need to charge an internal bettery.
Theres a lot more information on this thing at the Mardis website here http://www.lancs.ac.uk/depts/mardis/products/orac.html"

-1 switch selects precision oscillator or original clock
-1/4" trs jack for expression pedals or midi control via spunkytoofers midi modules
-vintage red pilot lens with chrome base
-24 point banana jack patchbay. all bends have been carefully selected for stability and responsiveness to sound design
-8 point jack bay for switching with 4 switches. for on/off of bends. all points are color coded for ease of use
-8 stackable banana cords provided
-pdf manual, bend diagram, and k1m sound banks emailed to winner
-power supply provided for those in north american countries. those in other countries will need to supply their own 12 volt, 500ma adapter negative tip
the kawai k1m is a hybrid synthesizer that relies on pcm sampling and additive synthesis based on harmonics. it's sound can be morphed via the vector joystick. this blend of synthesis along with circuit bending makes for a truly special and unique synthesizer that would be impossible to achieve otherwise.
under midi you have multi-timbral control, aftertouch, modulation, pitchbend, split points and other features that make this a musical instrument. this puts this in a league beyond circuit bent toys. truly a circuit bent musical instrument.
all bends have been carefully selected and are completely stable.
in the video demo below you'll notice i've setup all the bends under midi. the k1m's bends are open ended and can be controlled under midi with spunkytoofers midi modules. all instruments by spunkytoofers have been redesigned to be a modular system which can be controlled or intermodulated with one another. the k1m gives you complete manual, analog controls over the bends but all instruments are designed to be controlled under midi. on the k1m the bends can be modulated by sequencing or triggering over midi and the sample rate control can be modulated either by footcontroller or outputs from a spunkytoofers midi module freely assignable from midi cc's, notes, etc.
along with the instruments ability to be fully controlled under a midi modular system all instruments are also supported. i will back my work for free warranty work and will assist customers with any instrument they purchase from me as they are instruments i work with in my music performance and sound programming.
the video below demonstrates very simple setup under midi. the pads on a akai keyboard controller are used to toggle bends on and off under midi. this would be the same as manual control over bends except that it's easier for me to trigger the bends all from one controller. the banana cords are routed from spunkytoofers midi matrix module to the k1m's banana jacks. the midi module is also sending potentiometer control over midi to the k1m at the 1/4" trs jack with a sequence from the dave smith evolver and via midi mod wheel on the keyboard for more variation. please note i choose to modulate the module under 10k control. this can accept any value foot controller or potentiometer value beyond 10k and is capable of a much larger range of control. no effects are applied and the k1m is recorded direct from the module's output."
