"Having gotten my 2nd Music From Outer Space VCO built with my semitone and octave rotary switches function for 1 volt / octave tuning, I thought I would make an example video showing how the switches work, in roughly emulating a small portion of a bass / melody line from a live Tangerine Dream tune somewhere in the later 70's.
I hope you enjoy."

Lunetta 11 Spock July 1712

YouTube Published on Jul 17, 2012 by dolphinicus

"This is the latest panel in my new Lunetta 11 noise machine. Spock includes:
- 3 x slower CD40106 oscillators used for driving Clock inputs on other things
- 2 x 4 BIT Shift Registers (CD4015)
- 1 x 18 Stage Shift Reigster (CD4006)
- 3 x SPDT electronics switches with external control input (CD4053)
- 1 x Nick Collins / Draal modified / Me modified, with 2 inputs Pitch Tracker (CD4046)

Finally, as you'll hear in this video - pitch changes from the Lunetta 11 start warbling all over the place! :D That is thanks especially to, Nick/Draal's Pitch Tracker. I'll definitatively be building at least 1 more of these!
Note: due to problems with some of the different manufacturers of the CD4046, this one - the Texas Instruments one that Draal and I both use, DOES WORK PROPERLY. :)

I hope you enjoy."

"Well - just before dindin prep. I went to go back downstairs to shoot some pictures of my modular, now that I've put all 5 of the new laminated paper panels, from all of the modules transfers that I've done. (Still far from complete.) Especially for, the 4 x Serge / CGS Universal Slope Generators that are all working beautifully. BUT - having started work on my first 'drone' piece in a long long time I decided that I would shoot this short video, explaining what I have hooked up and how. Since I were short on time though, the entire thing is more than likely explained much too quickly for anybody but myself to understand so ... please enjoy the nice blinken lightzen, but neine touchen das buttonzez mit der fingers er gerpoken somefin! Anglich. Ain't it a wonderful langwitch? Lol."

YouTube via dolphinicus — May 10, 2010 — "This is the 1st video of the AJC V2, mounted into it's new panel. Now, all 3 voices are working properly. The unit has only the 3 Voices and 3 Modulators connected still, but the sonic variety available already - could scare your parents away, lickety-split! LOL. I hope you enjoy this one. The next video will have another module on the panel functioning as well."

2 x Voltage Controlled Low Frequency Oscillators
2 x Voltage Controlled Pulse Width Oscillator
1 x triple input AC mixer
Set right back and enjoy the aural twistings that could frighten ANYone's grandmother! :D"

1st Official $PLURJ Noise Piece - Feb 0312.AVI

YouTube Uploaded by dolphinicus on Feb 3, 2012

"This video is of just under 1/2 of the 1st Official $PLURJ! Noise Piece. Created with my $PLURJ! modular synthesizer that I've created / built, using 2 x Voltage Controlled Oscillators as audio sources and many, many other modules as modulators. It'd take forever to describe the patch. Outside of that - no effects were used. It's all pure $PLURJ! noising away. I hope you (noise / experimental enthusiasts), enjoy. :)"

LHH203-Apr1710.wmv

YouTube via dolphinicus — April 17, 2010 — "This is the beta version of the new version I designed for creating a hihat sound, from analog electronics. At times unpredictable, this little guy produces a range of modulatable sounds that you may never have heard before from any module with his 7 osc.'s and 6 CV inputs. The panel is missing labelling, which I will soon add."

The Judge - V1.02 alpha.AVI

YouTube Uploaded by dolphinicus on Dec 16, 2011

"This is the 2nd demonstration of my invention - The Judge. I've done some fine tuning of levels here and there (skipping descriptions) and things are working a lot better.
Also - I have the sequencer that is being used for the Level / comparison controls on each of the 16 steps, this time running my Liquid HiHat, to give a better audible idea, of which Steps are triggering and which are not.
I hope my explanation of the function in this video gets the idea across in an easier to understand way than my last version of it."

SergeDUSG1.AVI [Serge / CGS Universal Slope Generators]

YouTube Uploaded by dolphinicus on Jan 8, 2012

"This is a short vid. showing off my 2 x Serge / CGS Universal Slope Generators that I'd just completed yesterday. Thankfully, Serge Tcherepnin who had started Serge Modular Synthesizers in 1973, has licensed a few of his modules to the wonderful Ken Stone - owner of CGS Synths, so that he may produce PCBs of some of Serge Tcherepnin's wonderful modules.
The Serge USG is capable of operating as an Attack/Decay EG; Attack/Sustain/Release EG; LFO; VCLFO; VCO; VCF; Envelope Follower; Pitch Tracker; Slew Genereator (Portamento) as well as allowing the Rising and Falling wave shapes to change linearly or logarithmically.
In my 20+ years of working with and building modular synthesizers, I have never seen anyone else create a module as powerful, as this one.
I hope you enjoy the couple of fiddly bits that I've done with the 2 of them in this 9 minute video. As always, there'll be more coming! :D"

Ray Wilson WSG with a Voltage Controlled Oscillator - video 2

YouTube via dolphinicus
"This is the 1st video showing modifications that I have done to the Weird Sound Generator. In this one, 6 x CD40106 oscillators are switched on and off, being fed into a 6 bit DAC, which is modulating 1 of the oscillators in the WSG's Voice A. There are more modifications to complete, to finalize the overall modification."

TheDeathlehemMachine11-LiveImprovNumber1-Feb2111.AVI

YouTube via dolphinicus | February 21, 2011 |

"This is the first live improvisational recording on The Deathlehem Machine #11. I had set up 3 different sequences to switch between as well as a single oscillator droning in the background. It's a short recording at just under 10 minutes for the entire video.
Sequences are built from combinations of:
2 x Music From Outer Space 16 step sequencers
2 x 4015 4 BIT Shift Registers
4 inputs of an 8 BIT R-2R DAC
2 x Attack Decay envelope generators
Various standard modular synthesizer modules burbling away.

The only effect used is the longest reverb that I were able to obtain from my TC Electronics M300 Reverb/Delay effects unit.

I hope you enjoy. :)"

The Liquid HiHat V2.00 - ALPHA - April 1110

YouTube via dolphinicus — April 11, 2010 — "Prenote: The audio quality of the camera, is NOT good. Many higher harmonics missing. I'll record the audio on future videos and combine it, with them.
This is the 1st prototype of Liquid HiHat version 2. None of the 3 Control Voltage inputs have been hooked up. The frequencies of all 7 oscillators are adjusted, to give a starter idea of some of the sound possibilities from it. The sound itself is through an Attack / Decay envelope generator controlled Voltage Controlled Amplifer."

Split Wave Modulator V1-20 alpha.3gp

YouTube Uploaded by dolphinicus on Sep 11, 2011

"The Split Wave Modulator V1.20 alpha is actually Version 4 of my 1995/1996 invention the Voltage Controlled Split Wave module where I had come up with the invention / innovation of taking an audio waveform and splitting it into it's positive and negative voltage halves. With that invention I had also mistakenly created a different type of WAVE FOLDING that the well known Electronotes Newsletter creator and author had also mistakenly done in December 1976.
Together these functions allow me to change the amplitudes of each of the halves with external control voltage modulation. Both of the halves after being processed or not are then summed along with a copy of the originally input waveform to give an extremely wide variation in harmonics that are produced.
As Bernie had said, the wave folding portion of this unit (as well as my Split Wave invention) can be considered an opposite type function of the regular Voltage Controlled Filter which REMOVES harmonics from an input waveform. The Split Wave Modulator ADDS harmonics to a simple input waveform."
