BOSS HAND CLAPPER HC-2

via this auction
"Made in Japan (1983)

Produces a hand clap sound that is adjustable with sens, dry and hall controls.
Produces sounds simular to legendary TR-808 & TR-909 Drum machines!

The BOSS Handclapper is not an effect pedal, per se. Its purpose is to produce handclap sounds. It does so when you hit that blue rubber pad with a stick, or with your hand, whichever is handier.

The circuit inside is IDENTICAL (save for the addition of a couple of external pots to adjust some sound parameters that are permanently set in the 808) to the handclap circuit in the legendary Roland TR-808 drum machine!

External input jack for triggering from other drum machines with trigger out.

The unit can runs off a normal Battery (9v) or with a mains adapter."



Boss Handclapper HC-2 MIDI mod

YouTube via accenter | March 05, 2007

"Dieser Handclapper wurde in seinen Regelbereichen erweitert. Zusätzlich wurde auch ein MIDI IN sowie eine blaue Power LED eingebaut. Der Handclapper ist auch über das Berührungsempfindliche Feld spielbar. Schaltungstechnisch wurde er an den TR-909 Clap angelehnt und klingt auch genau so. Durch die Regler ist hier im Gegensatz zum original TR-909 Clap ein größerer Tonumfang möglich. Mittels "Dry" Regler kann der Clap getuned werden (Tonhöhe). Der "Hall" Regler ermöglicht ein variables Ausklingen. Der "Sens" Regler bestimmt die Anschlagsempfindlichkeit des berührungsempfindlichen Feldes."

Music Made with Bees

YouTube via t0nehammer | October 08, 2010

"I wanted to see how far I could take the recordings of bees into the realm of music. The bee produces about 200-230 wing flaps pr. second, which is enough to generate a nice, rich sounding buzz. I recorded a bunch of bee sounds and manipulated them through a variety of tools (including timefreezers, delays, filters, glitch modules etc). I then decided to add some more human elements to it (vocals, guitars, grooves etc) and wrapped it up by adding full symphony orchestra and choirs on it during the end.

Besides the bee sounds - the majority of samples are coming from the tonehammer.com sample catalog.

Hope you enjoy it. Einstein once predicted that the human race would survive no more then 4 years after the extinction of bees due to their keystone role in the entire ecosystem. So peace out to all the bees and bumbles.

Best - Troels"

Day 218 / Cacophony

Day 218 / Cacophony from Charlie Visnic on Vimeo.

"The latest Monome Community Remix Project is underway and I began my work with a monome app that I've never used before. It's called "xor".

Once I'd figured out the basics of the app I selected three samples that were semi-in-tune with each other. Then I recorded a jam with each of the samples in xor and filmed the results with my camera. After I finished recording, I imported the video and audio into final cut pro and edited each performance down to about 2-3 minutes.

Then, I basically threw caution to the wind and layered them on top of each other willy-nilly, without any concern for whether they'd match at all. Either way it didn't matter to me. This was my experiment. I would see the results at the very end.

It ended up turning out pretty cool and interesting. There are moments where they all work together making interesting rhythms and there are times where they clash.

This was my creative thing of the day for my creative thing-a-day blog at: theb-roll.com"

The Syle Green Filter- Synth Envelope Filter

via this auction

"The Syle Green Filter pedal. This is a very interesting and fun filter with a ton of weird sounds- not your traditional envelope filter. More like a synth pedal, with a fuzz included in the filter sound. This pedal is used and is cosmetically in excellent condition. I have noticed that when using this with my active basses there is a "popping" sound when the filter engages. The sound is not present when I used my passive instruments. I'm not sure if this is a manufacturing defect or a design flaw, and because of this I am selling the pedal AS-IS."

Synthwerks FSR4 eurorack touch controller

via this auction

see the seller's other items for more.
"v1 model of the FSR4 force sensing resistor module.
The fsr-4 is synthwerks' first release in it's upcoming series of modules based on force sensing resistor (fsr) technology. these modules translate the pressure the performer applies to the sensing pads to user adjustable scaleable control voltage and adjustable threshold dependent gate signal. the fsr-4 has four identical circuits and can produce four independent pressure outputs. the pressure sensors are non-capacitance based, respond to any direct pressure, are not affected by skin resistance, and never need cleaning or polishing. you can even play them while wearing gloves or by pressing on them with other objects. rubber pads and other textured surfaces can be placed on top of the sensors to make a user defined custom feel to the playing surface. internal jumpers allow any of one the 4 channel gate or pressure outputs to be routed to the standard cv and gate bus (only one of each should be connected this way). the module is 16hp in width."

Cwejman BLD Bass-Lead & Drum Generator

via this auction

"The BLD has all components and functions necessary for generating bass lead and drum sounds with focus on bass drum sounds. It can be trigged by a push button or by an external signal (any shape). The pitch, cutoff frequency, transient times and amplitude are also voltage controllable by external signals. The BLD contain main sound generator (OSCILLATOR) and noise generator and modifiers such as low pass filter, amplifier and two transient (contour) generators."

Cwejman VC-FC Voltage Controlled Forward Compressor

via this auction
see the seller's other items for more.
"The VC-FC is a unique forward compressor in the sense that all compressor parameters can be voltage controlled from the external modulation sources by CV inputs. It gives a lot of possibilities for an instant change of compressors character by CV signals from analogue sequencers or other CV generating devices. The external devices, such as filters can be also inserted in to the Side Chain of the compressor for frequency dependend gain reduction.

MODE/ variable threshold The threshold from which incoming signal is compressed is variable in the range from -15 to +15 dB.
MODE/ constant threshold. The gain of the compressor is variable in the range of +24 to -6 dB with a fixed output level at +6 dB at maximal ratio.
KNEE
Knee can be set for a sharp or soft character of gain reduction ((imitates the vintage opto compressors gain reduction)
by manual selector or by CV signal with two states; 0 for sharp knee and +2 Volts to 10 Volts for soft knee.
RATIO
The compression angle is variable (by knob) or by CV signal from OFF (no compression) to limiting (almost infinite compression)
ATTACK and RELEASE
Attack and release time are controllable by knobs or by CV signals in a wide range for all possible musical applications.
The Attack Time; from 200usec's to 250 msec's and The Release Time; from 20msec's to 8 sec's.
MAKEUP GAIN
The Makeup Gain is controlled by knob or by CV signal in the range from -15 dB to +15 dB"
