THOMAS MOOG SYNTHI 1055 SYNTH KEYBOARD

via this auction

"Back around 1973 moog made the Moog Satellite, and my understanding is that Thomas got the right to build the Satallite with the Thomas brand on it, and they built it into some of the Thomas range of organs. Then they made this the Synthi 1055, which is in effect a Satellite on sterroids."

Circuit Bending the Gameboy Color

GetLoFi has a post up on circuit bending a Gameboy Color with his GetLoFi’s LTC Precision Oscillator Module.

"One of the most requested tutorials has been the installation of LTC Precision Oscillator in the Gameboy Color. The LTC module is a variable oscillator can control device’s CPU clock allowing for speeding up and slowing down the overall audio output with just a twist of a knob.

At first Gameboy Color seemed like a poor candidate for this procedure, but as it turns out there are several advantages for selecting it..."

Korg Polysix Analog Synthesizer: MIDI IN, FX Input, FX Bypass

via this auction
"Korg Polysix that has had the battery replaced, traces repaired, and features additional modifications. The keyboard is in tune and functions normally. Additionally, this Polysix features a p6retro MIDI input circuit. There are also two audio jacks that I've added.

The left jack is the audio output from the voice board, which truly bypasses the effect board. The other jack is an iput to the effect board, so you can use the Polysix's lush effect board, which features rich analog BBD delay chips for Chorus, Phase, and Ensble effects. On the front panel, there is a switch to route the voice board through either to the effect board or to the voice board output jack. Features:
Battery replaced with standard CR2032
Circuit board traces repaired
p6retro MIDI input
Direct voice board out (FX-board bypass)
External audio input (FX-board input)"

Doepfer Dark Energy Square wave ?

YouTube Uploaded by module19 on Apr 16, 2011

"I have had a lot of folks asking about the Dark Energy and its lack of a square wave from the VCO. Well its possible to make one if you adjust the Pulse width just right. And if you patch the CV2 into the VCO PW input you can user a pitch bender to change over to a triangle as you play :-)"

"*Note: Turn on your subs and turn it up for full awesome bass goodness! Or listen w/ headphones.*

Just got my Gravity Well by Circuit Abbey today. I had to shoot a video. Holy crap this module is awesome! Some real Reznor type shit! Lots of Swarmatron style sounds. all things modular are running into the Gravity Well. You can get so much out of it by just tweaking the level/bias pots! Wogglebug stepped output provides some great clicking which interupts/interacts w/ the bassline running through the Well. Rest of the drums are from the ESX-1 SD."
