"Kits and enclosures are available at http://groovesizer.com
A first look at the Bravo firmware for the Groovesizer. The firmware is proof-of-concept only at this point - it just aims to show that the firmware works with the Groovesizer hardware. The firmware borrows code (heavily!) from Bleeplabs' very cool Bleepdrum http://bleeplabs.com/store/"

Standuino Announces New Brand & Product Line as Bastl Instruments

Published on Nov 6, 2013 bastlinstruments·5 videos

Update: also see this post for some previous videos on the Trinity series.

"Bastl Instruments - Trinity series
handmade open hackable musical instruments

http://www.bastl-instruments.com/trinity
Trinity instruments used: SQNCR, DRUM, POLY, MONO-FM

live sequenced and performed by HRTL http://hrtl.bandcamp.com/

to download the song visit soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/bastl-instruments"

"We are happy to announce the launch of Bastl Instruments, new brand for electronic hand-made musical instruments, which continues the tradition set up by Standuino.

The first main product is Trinity - universal musical instrument and original sounding modular groovebox. It can function as any type of digital synthesizer, sequencer, controller, arpeggiator or almost anything that can be programmed into a micro-controller. Trinity is designed to be connected and combined with other Trinities of different functions in a chain, so you can create your own music making environment. It is ready to communicate with the outer world via MIDI and different sync and CV methods using MIDI Bastl. We are musicians passionate of exploring new fields of sonic experience - we already developed 4 different instruments for Trinity which work great together. They are sequencer, drum synthesizer, polyphonic synthesizer and monophonic FM synthesizer.…and there is many more to come!

All Trinity instruments have the same starting price: 60 eur for assembled instrument and 45 eur for a soldering kit.

Trinity is a finished musical instrument as much as an empty canvas. It is open for any sort of hacks both hardware and software. You can hack the existing softwares or write your own synth software from scratch using the Mozzi library for sound output. Because Trinity is based on Arduino, you can use the whole world of it to interface literally anything with it. Hardware hackability means that you can connect sensors or motors to it or sync it to any device. The softwares and examples are written in structured form so you can read and change them easily.

Standuino began in 2011 as artistic project giving tribute to Standa Filip, one of the pioneers of hand-made electronic instruments from Czech Republic. In 2013 Standuino cease to produce and sell musical instruments, but remains an artistic project aiming to bring up stories from the history and show the poetry of czechoslovakian DIY from the communist era. The reasons to bring up a new name and brand for the production of musical instruments itself were numerous. Most of all, Standuino began as an artistic project with different focus than development and sale of musical instruments. By separating these two poles, we want to clarify that Standuino is an active non-commercial cultural and artistic movement, whereas Bastl Instruments is a grown-up professional music instruments developer and producer. This split also comes from different structure of the hardware design. Whereas Stadnuino was intended as an universal prototyping platform, Bastl Instruments are primarily designed for sound production. The creative core team of Bastl Instruments remains the same as the team of Standuino: Ondřej Merta and Václav Peloušek. All production takes place in Brno, Czech Republic.

Graphic identity of Bastl Instruments was created by Anymade studio.

e-licktronic Arduino Mozzi mono Synth v1.0

Published on Mar 13, 2013 movielicktronic·6 videos

"Mozzi mono Synth is an Arduino based synthesizer. Wave form are generate by PWM.
The synth has one "oscillator" with 4 wave form (saw, sine, Square and triangle), one low pass filter with 12db resonance, one Lfo who control the Cutoff with different wave form and one simple AR envelop.
All of this can be change in the code.
You could add more parameter.
Have a look at https://www.e-licktronic.com"

This is the first e-licktronic post.
