The Boeing Cockpit That Makes Sound & Schmidt Voice Board
flickr By jochenWolters"This sound and UI monster -- and I mean that in the best possible way -- is the Schmidt Eightvoice Polyphonic Synthesizer.
Here's a little tech teaser: you get eight-voice polyphony, and every one of those voices has four oscillators and four filters!
There does not seem to be a product website yet, but you can find out more about this impressive instrument on Peter Mahr's Blog, blogasys.
Also, do have a look at this demo video produced by the guys from AudioFanzine." (bottom video in this post.)

YouTube Uploaded by ssnibbe on Apr 20, 2011
"Tap, slide, and stretch your fingers over OscilloScoop to create an infinity of electronica, dance, hip hop, and techno tracks. With OscilloScoop you make real musical grooves by simply gliding your fingertips over spinning crowns; then sequence them into a real-time performance with a few taps. As effortless as a toy, OscilloScoop gives you the same tools pro DJs and musicians use to create intricate tracks—but with an intuitive interface inspired by video games and animation. OscilloScoop is an organic, generative way to make music in a process that's more like dancing than composing: it's addictive, fun, and original.
OscilloScoop features continuous tone melody; 16- and 32-beat quantizing; low-pass filter; volume control; selection of loopable beats in techno, hip hop, electro, and house; tempo control from 60 to 140 beats per minute; in-app purchase of additional beat sets; preset saves for live performance; and fine-grain editing when you tilt into landscape.
OscilloScoop is designed by Lukas Girling, a creator of interactive musical interfaces who has worked with world-renowned musicians and music technologists including Laurie Anderson and Max Mathews. The app was created in collaboration with interactive artist and programmer Scott Snibbe, author of the bestselling apps Bubble Harp and Gravilux; and Graham McDermott, noted video game and app developer.

Sound Cells demo - generative music iPhone app
YouTube Uploaded by kbroom on May 2, 2011
"Sound Cells is an Universal iOS app, that creates generative music, inspired by the "Otomata" web app. By touching the matrix, cells are created and start interacting with each other. If they collide (or land on the same square) they will change directions. If a cell touches the wall, it will generate a sound. The rest of the app mechanics are left to the user for experimentation."
The app comes with the 2 different sounds, which can be controlled in realtime for very expressive effects. Also the app can generate MIDI output, so you can hook up a midi capable instrument for endless possibilities.
This is a universal app and on the iPad, it will use the full available resolution for a rich visual experience."

Philip Glass' Koyaanisqatsi on Eigenharp Alpha
YouTube Uploaded by gbevin on May 3, 2011
"http://www.eigenzone.org/events - I've prepared a reinterpretation of Koyaanisqatsi for our San Francisco Eigenharp tour from May 5-10.
Koyaanisqatsi holds a special place in my heart, it's one of those musical pieces that never leaves you, it stays deep inside you with all its beauty and nakedness, forever. My father introduced me to it when I was a little kid, it's a real shame he passed away before I was able to play it for him myself. He would have loved it. Nonetheless, this is dedicated to him.
I think I managed to capture the essence of Koyaanisqatsi, let me know what you think of it.
I you like this performance, you can download the lossless audio file from SoundCloud for free: http://soundcloud.com/gbevin/koyaanisqatsi
For those interested in the technical parts:
Everything is played on the Eigenharp Alpha and recorded straight from the audio interface output without any mixing and just a little bit of mastering. I'm using the SonicCouture's Glass / Works instrument in a four-part multi-timbral setup in Native Instruments Kontakt. Each key individually controls pitch, velocity and the resonance of the convolution filter cut-off frequency (which creates a faint scraping-like sound).
The vocals are done through the DPA microphone that's clipped onto the breath pipe and plugged into the Eigenharp Alpha. It uses the built-in Eigenharp Alpha pre-amp and is routed through a series of Audio Unit effects in EigenD for pitch shifting, stereo spreading, EQ and compression. I'm monitoring directly from the headphone output of the Eigenharp Alpha with my Etymotic ER-4P earphones.
The single instrument cables carries all the information, data and audio, in both directions."

"This is a first demo of the newly revised GetLoFi Delay Kit. The kit will be available for purchase from GetLoFi.com/shop
The metal tines are mounted on a piece of wood with a Piezo pick underneath. The signal from the pickup is then routed directly into the LoFi Delay Unit and the output is routed strait to the audio recorder.
The only controls on the delay unit are Delay Time and Delay Feedback. Unit turns on when an output cable is inserted. In the demo the unit is operated by an optional 9 Volt Wall supply.
The delay itself is based on the PT2399 Digital IC, only bare minimum of components were used to make assembly as simple as possible. No OP-Amps are present in the circuit."

"Rare Dual Ring Modulator (or as he put it 'doppelringmodulator') built by Dr. Joseph Otto MUNDIGL and used on his electronic recordings. He designed the prototype Synthi E for EMS and built various oddities for his own studio. The Ring Mod has 2 seperate ring mods and uses din connectors (midi connectors work) But of course is better to use the normal Jacks that are linked on the same din I/O. Inside it is very nicely built with old discrete components and Coils. It has a switch for each ring mod and 4 large attenuating knobs (1 for each input)."

Propellerheads Reason Tutorial: WaveShaper Combinator Effect w/ Malström
YouTube Uploaded by DubSpot on May 2, 2011
"For more info - http://bit.ly/kxOGZt
In this new video tutorial titled To Waveshape the Future, Dubspot instructor and electronic music producer Chris Petti shows you how to create a WaveShaper Combinator effect patch from scratch using Propellerhead Reason's powerful synthesizers Malström and Thor. First, Petti starts with a fully-built WaveShaper effect patch plugged into to the output of Thor (which is generating an unprocessed sine wave) with a series of real-time controls mapped to Combinator. When the WaveShaper is engaged, the unprocessed sound is transformed dramatically. Then, in a step by step process, Petti demystifies the method he used to create the effect patch and shows you how to build your own WaveShaper effect from scratch, utilizing with a blank combinator patch. At the end of the tutorial you should have a good grasp of how to Wave Shape (process, bend, twist, or modify) any incoming sound and make the lead elements in your tracks more effective and lively."

"The new synth from Analogue Solutions - Telemark. I've only had it for a couple of days but it's already made a huge impact on my studio. I don't know how I've got by without having any VCO's in the past! This thing sounds HUGE.
I decided to make this, my first demo vid, to showcase the Telemark as they aren't enough demos out there. Keep in mind that I'm only scratching the surface here...
All the sounds you hear in this demo are made on the Telemark. The only FX added were a touch of reverb on the main synth sound.
