Sarah & Lara Grant's Felt Based Modular Synth Design & Sound Processing

FSP005 Prototype from lara grant on Vimeo.

"What you are seeing is a prototype of FSP005, this is one module that will be part of a collection, making up a wall mounted soft musical interface. The interface is made out of merino wool felt, yarn, elastic and conductive thread, and snaps. The sound is being created by a modified gated oscillator circuit, AKA the siqque-est sounding circuit known to FSP.

MOTM Blacet Time Machine

via Mark

"I have a Blacet Time Machine in MOTM format built on a custom Stooge panel for sale. While I do not think Time Machines are truly rare, they are definitely synth.

Although what might particularly interest your readers is that this analogue delay has a knob that controls the amount of input aliasing. It ranges from the original filtering to bypassing the filter completely. With basic waveforms it adds inharmonics that appear below the fundamental. When used with more complex signals combined with feedback it adds dark spooky undertones that shift around.

Afaik, this is the only Time Machine that has such a feature.

Yet I don't like the way the compander circuit is designed. It effects the dynamics of the signal in ways I personally find undesirable. No doubt it contributes to the module's unique sound that many people love. I've tried living with it, but it's just not for me.

There is more description and some pictures here"

Accessing Hidden Waves on the Ensoniq SQ-80 & ESQ-1

"First dual normal saws, and then I activate the 'Hidden Waves' on the 3rd oscillator, After that i play a few of the other Hidden Waves

I got hold of a ROM from Ebay [you can find some here] that allows access to extra "Hidden Waves" in the SQ80.
Not sure if they are extra hidden waves as such, but more like glitched areas in the waveform memory area

They change sounds every octave and some sound identical to the normal waves, and there are duplicates. Still it does add something interesting, and has that extra warmth of the SQ80 analog bits"

via Sam on the AH list:
"The ESQ-1 can access these "hidden waveforms" as well. (I wrote an article for the Transoniq Hacker, probably in the early '90's, about this.) In fact, Syntaur sells a bank of sounds for the ESQ that relies on these waves. They are not really extra waves (purposefully created) that are somehow hidden - but it was a good marketing term...
Instead of finding real waveforms, you're just telling the machine to look outside of the regular wavetable to get its wave data. So it's grabbing wave data from various points in the firmware that are supposed to be other things. For example, what comes up as WAV123 might really be a bit of the code that tells the keyboard how to respond to incoming MIDI data or something. So most of the hidden waves are going to sound really glitchy (which can be cool, too), but a few of them actually sound musical. In any case, you can certainly make the ESQ or SQ-80 sound different from what it's supposed to sound like.
You can get to the waves in a couple of different ways. The most popular way (on an ESQ) is to insert a cartridge that has SQ-80 sounds which use the SQ-80's expanded wave table. The ESQ doesn't know how to acces the expanded waves, so you end up seeing WAV053 and such instead of the regularly-named waves from the table. We did it another way: by actually crashing the OS (I think we loaded in crazy data through the Tape In), and this way, we got many more of the "hidden" waves (over a hundred, I think). The problem is that you can scroll downward through them, but you can never go back up. One other thing with this method we used was that it also gave parameter values that were outside the "legal" ranges, such as really high octave settings and such.
I've seen the eBay listings for the EPROMs that do this, and I was curious how the seller did it, and how well everything works.
Sam"

"Ensoniq ESQ1 V3.5HW Hidden Waves EPROMs Circuit Bent
Expand the Sound Pallette of Your ESQ1
International buyers shall be responsible for all customs, levies or VATS imposed by their country.

Included in this listing:

2 upgrade EPROMs to upgrade 1 ESQ1 unit
Printed instructions


About the upgrade: The 3.5HW OS (designated as 3.53 on startup screen) is identical to the standard 3.5 OS, with the addition of 180 waveform selections. These 'hidden waveforms' are mostly 'glitch' type of sounds and many selections change character/sound with every octave.

What do they sound like?: Many of the waveforms are glitchy and raw--as if the ESQ1 is circuit bent, making sounds it isn't supposed to. Many of the waveforms are also similar to the stock waveforms but with some dirtied up a bit. If you are into sound design/effects, 'glitch' electronic, experimental, circuit bending/bent instrument sounds, etc. then it may appeal to you.

Why are they "hidden"?: The hidden waveforms are contained in the standard OS 3.5 however they are not user accessible--Ensoniq probably did not think that they would be usable for average keyboard players. Why are they there in the first place--who knows? Perhaps a placeholder for a more conventional expansion option. But nowadays with sonic pallettes expanding into more experimental territory, the hidden waveforms are more useful, and so the 3.5HW OS lets you use these waveforms that were once hidden. Envelopes, DCA and the ESQ1's analog filters can be applied to these waveforms just as they can to the regular waveforms.

Installation: No soldering required. On units with plastic case, just open up unit and replace EPROMs. Installation on units with metal case requires removing the keyboard to access the socketed EPROMs. More detailed instructions are included with purchase.

EPROMs will be shipped in an anti-static packaging."

Update: Forgot to mention this reminds me of "the happy accident".

Rendezvous Live Recording Session

Rendezvous themselves are a two piece band consisting of Itai Simon and Hagai Izenberg. Collaborating together since 2003 they are on a quest to dig deep into music as a true art form, trying to find interesting ways to capture the imagination of hungry minds and ears everywhere. Their work can be easily cataloged as instrumental and experimental, bringing together both retro sounds and ideas to this electronic contemporary world. On 2004 they released their first EP, a live in the studio project which was recorded in a short period of time with two other musicians, while playing around and improvising on various grooves and forms, every take was a journey within itself ending up differently each and every time, this venture crowned the band their name... "Rendezvous". The EP was a success and immediately afterwards they began working on their first full length debut album, a project that took them almost five years to complete. Half way through recording the album they teamed-up with highly appreciated mixer and producer Dave Bascombe (Depeche Mode, Tears For Fears) which mixed the album in London.

Rendezvous' debut single - C Sharp - is to be released worldwide on June 27, and will include 2 Carl Cox remixes and an animated music video by MIE studios (Faithless, George Michael)."

"All block controllers now come with our expansion module for added adaptability, flexibility and control. Two ¼" jacks allow you to connect Roland-style foot pedals and single analog controls. Put your feet in the mix for additional controls, or experiment adding different sensors and switches. If that's not enough, you can add up to eight more analog controls with the pin header connection. This provides a direct link into the block's Brain so you can experiment with touch controls, sensors, accelerometers, faders, rotary knobs, and more. Of course, our Builder series BYOB boards can be easily integrated for a totally customized and modular setup."

Ginette - DIY instrument based on the ondes Martenot

YouTube Uploaded by pemakini on May 8, 2011

"I designed and built this instrument during 2010-2011. The idea is based on the ondes Martenot that was invented by Maurice Martenot in 1928. My instrument is named 'Ginette' after Ginette Martenot - an ondist and the sister of Maurice Martenot. She played ondes Martenot at the premiere of Olivier Messiaen's Turangalîla-Symphonie.

The heart of the instrument is a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that produces the sound. I found great VCO design from Music From Outer Space -website. The VCO produces four waveforms or timbres - sine, triangle, ramp and square - which can be selected on the panel. The range of the fingerboard is four octaves and on the panel there is an octave selection knob, so the total pitch range is nine octaves. In practice the tracking isn't so accurate in very high and low registers. There are connectors for an external CV and a gate, so the instrument can also be controlled using external device like a keyboard or a sequencer, which both are my future DIY projects. I am going to improve the instrument by adding a voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA). This would fix the problem with the volume control button that leaks some signal when it's supposed to be mute.

The background noise in the video is due to the tube amplifier.

Here's the link to MFOS VCO:

The more skin you apply to the sensors, the louder it gets - it's super-sensitive too. Model T does all the cool optical-theremin and trigger-input madness of the Jupiter III, plus has a DC power input (does not run on batteries). You'll get a complimentary 9V power adapter and LED lightstick with it too, to deliver your wildest sonic experiments.
This is the first one available to the public with the blue faceplate (#001). It doesn't even appear on our site or videos yet - so you will get the blue one pictured above.
Jupiter T is a fully analog & expertly hand built into a super-strong, ABS plastic, control case, similar to what might be on a spaceship in the 70s (think Logan's Run). It has oversized, MXR knobs, nickel-plated sensors, a slick, acrylic, control panel and is built with the finest components we can get our hands on. The sounds are ridiculously huge and unmistakably analog, you'll throw out your cheesy, analog-emulation devices when you hear it.
Be the first in your region to own this awesome mini-synth. There will only be a very limited run of these, so don't miss out.
Go freakin' space-crazy with Jupiter T, only from Chamber of Sounds
This unit is #001, signed, dated & numbered.
You cannot get it anywhere else on the planet, except direct from Chamber of Sounds.

Soundtorch lets you browse through your audio collection extremely fast. Just drag your audio files onto the Soundtorch view ― all sounds are immediately arranged in a meaningful way and ready to be auditioned. Soundtorch is driven by the C.A.S.E. (Computer Aided Sound Exploration) engine, a sophisticated suite of algorithms that analyze and intelligently classify your audio collection.

With Soundtorch you can listen to sounds using a virtual torchlight ― all sounds illuminated by the light are played back simultaneously. This allows you to get an overview of literally thousands of sound files in a matter of mere minutes. As you zoom in or focus the light beam, you can still listen to one sound at a time.

Even though Soundtorch plays so many sounds at once, there's no cacophony. Your mind is powerful enough to easily spot the sound you like. Soundtorch further positions each playing sound on a surround system, or uses advanced surround virtualization when listening with headphones.

EMS Synthi Hi Fli

via Vemia

"A rare early Synthi Hifli with original stand and early series chunky nylon-dipped pedals in beautiful condition. Serial number 9064, so the sixty-fourth Hifli made out of a total production of 450. This unit has been recently refurbished by EMS and Steve Thomas. Only a small number of these virtually indestructible diecast pedals were supplied before a change was made to the cheaper Solasound pedal shells. The original three-part chromed stands are also much sought-after. The previous owner added a useful modification switch that allows the permanent envelope system to be bypassed. David Cockerell's original design prevented the Hifli from being used with a continuous non-percussive audio signal. A mains on-off switch has also been added on the front panel. Evidence of two other modifications (now removed) can be seen. A jack socket was connected in the middle of the front face, now replaced with a blanking plug. This will be painted white for delivery. Also another switch to the right of the mains on-off switch has been removed. Note that this Hifli does not include the Growl modification added to the later Hiflis, although this can still be retrofitted by EMS if desired. VEMIA will pack and deliver or ship this instrument to the winning bidder. If you want the growl modification done, that could be done by EMS before we receive the Hi-Fli - at a cost of 90GBP total."

"I purchased both of these Movement Mark II's around eight years ago - both are sold as one lot (reason in a minute) and as non working. The first appears to be an earlier machine (no floppy drive) and is in cosmetically better condition than the other. It comes with a customquality flight case and appears to have been used by someone called 'T Vallis' although I can't find anything about them. Note this unit does not have MIDI. Upon powering on there is a nasty crackling from the power supply so it needs some care from a person qualified to do so! The second unit is I suspect later, firstly it has a built in floppy drive and seems to want to boot from it - however I have no boot or other discs for it. Secondly it has MIDI ports on the back. Movement produced very few units of the MkII - the Mk1 having been famously used in the 'Sweet Dreams' video by Eurythmics [see this post]. I understood Blancmange used a Movement Mk II for a couple of their albums - hence my having to try and own one (hands up to being a huge Blancmange fan!). They need to go to a good home who can get them working again - hence being sold as one lot - tragically I suspect one is going to have to be used to provide parts transplant for the other to make one working unit. ** According to nLi, the Movements were based on a NASCOM computer - lots of info at http://www.nascomhomepage.com/ **"
