4ms ABG and the Ekdahl Moisturizer

YouTube via bigcitymusic — April 22, 2010 —

"Here we have the 4ms Autonomous Bassline Generator running through the Ekdahl Moisturizer. The ABG is a kit that can be easily built and is a whole lot of fun. It can continually produce varying melodies seemingly by magic!

The Moisturizer is a super-cool spring reverb unit with an analog multimode filter and LFO for modulation. One of the best things about the Moisturizer is that there are controls for wet/dry amounts for both the filter and reverb sections. The built in LFO can modulate the filter cutoff frequency and the filter mode which can yield some great results. There's also a host of jacks on the back of the Moisturizer, giving voltage control over filter cutoff, filter mode, wet/dry amounts for reverb and filter as well as LFO speed and an LFO output. Gated, filtered, modulated, funkdafied spring reverb! The Moisturizer sounds great on guitar too and anything else you can think of;)"

Eminent Solina String Ensemble

via this auction
"The String Ensemble is an example of excellent Dutch craftsmanship. The wooden casing certainly looks good and is very sturdy. The console with sliders and instrument selection buttons is made of metal. The four octave keyboard is fine and has this typical 'spring crack' when you depress the keys. The contact springs are located under the keys, so they don't get covered with dust easily. In fact, the contacts are built that well that I have not noticed any cracking or sound degradation due to corrosion.

The unit can be opened by taking out three screws at the back, lifting the lid some two centimetres and sliding it backwards.

Inside, the machine is a perfect world of neatly placed boards and very tidy wiring. A joy to see!
The buttons and sliders on the panel are the following: power on/off, tuning up/down, contrabass, cello, volume bass, crescendo, sustain length, master volume, viola, violin, brass, horn and modulation.

The contrabass and cello selectors can be used to turn on a 16' or 8' monophonic bass, which is triggered by the lowest of the keys one presses. The bass runs from C0 to G1 and stops there. The bass volume can be adjusted to match the volume of the upper registers by the 'volume bass' slider.

The crescendo and sustain sliders can be used to alter the attack and decay rates of the viola and violin registers and also have some minor effect on the other registers.

The viola and violin are the core string sounds of the unit. Brass and horn are also very nice and soft sounds which may be blended with the viola and violin sounds to create subtle sound differences.

The modulation button can be used to turn off the built-in chorus effect. I think nobody will do this, for the stereo chorus of the ensemble is what makes this machine sound so very wonderful!"

Note the labels are not ARP.

Jean Loup Diersten

French: http://dierstein.fr/
Googlish: http://dierstein.fr/
"Besides the maintenance of analogue instruments, hybrid analog / digital and fully digital, Jean-Loup has a preference for the creation: change or manufacturing and production.

Thus, he did the dehumidification of analog instruments for concerts by Jean-Michel Jarre Houston (1986), Lyon (1986) and Paris (1990).

He creates robot controllers via MIDI, the prototype instrument Meta (Serge DELAUBIER). Sans oublier des lecteurs de cartons perforés pour Orgue de Barbarie ( Pierre Charial , Jacques Rémus , Patrice Moulet ). Not to mention readers of perforated cards for barrel organ ( Peter Charial , Jacques Remus , Patrice Moulet )."

According to BLUE PLANET CORPORATION in the comments of this post, he also makes the Ondes Martenot. "For those who are searching the real one, they can contact in Paris, Jean-Loup DIERSTEIN. He's making like the original one. Expensive, but we can say that's the same."
