"DScratch module - Protein Project - Gorgull

This is the second shot of [DScratch] module - project codename Protein -

Since first video, I added some new features:
# more visual feedback
# a little sampler effect
# a resampling effect
# mute mode
# pitch control
# record the mic as base sample
# visual feedback on both screens
# midi out: control midi software wireless (VJ software for example) using DSMidiWifi
# a few bugs corrections

The base sample is a 5 seconds wav file running in loop.

Weevil Update

Via Tom of Bugbrand. Sent my way via TSP.

"Hiya Bug-list. I'm happy to get some announcements out!

**1
There's a new batch of 8 Weevil07s just released in the BugShop - Priced at £130 plus shipping and all ready to fly around the world. The batch is all in brown as pictured here. There are 6 of these ones, plus two in a darker brown with different knobs like this. If you'd like one of the ones with different (?special!) knobs then send me an email while placing your order - this is first come first served!

**2
There are new AudioWeevils brewing... Details will go online soon, but here's a quick pic of the proto. The proper versions will be a bunch more snazzy than this proto... Note the slope fronted case and the plentiful knobs..!.. This version adds a mixer so you can blend dry and squared audio with the Weevil heart (twin osc ringmod - one of the oscs can be replaced by the squared audio input) and powerful resonant lowpass filter. Oh, and a modulation LFO for warbling one of the oscillators and the filter. There will be a small batch right at the end of this month. No reservations, but do keep it in mind...

**3
And onwards -- unfortunately I'm not going to be able to work all through November due to an operation & this will obviously limit the output of any Bug batches... I'm not yet sure, therefore, whether there can be anymore BabyBugCrushers this year, but I'll do my best.. PostcardWeevils have also been popular but are currently out-of-stock while I await more parts..

**4
That's it for now.
Cheers & best to all,
Tom"

9090 Analog Drum Synthesizer

Update via joseph_amos in the comments: "This is actually a DIY project. [link] It looks like whoever is selling just copied and pasted the text from the first page. "

"serial No. 001 t page 2002
The 9090 is an analogue drum machine based upon the legendary Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer. Many people consider this machine to be the life and soul of house music and it's modern derivatives. Trance, techno, whatever. In some moment of insanity back in '99 I decided it would be a fun challenge to build an entire clone of this classic analogue drum box (having no appreciation of how such a project can take over your life) and, bored with using sampled beats, I wanted a real, tweakable analogue box. Just like the 909.

I chose to make my 9090 just a MIDI controlled unit without an integral sequencer. All original drums are in there, together with power supply and a new PIC-based MIDI interface. The complete project is built across two separate printed circuit boards, designed to fit within a 2U height 19" rack enclosure. I didn't develop a sequencer to go with this, but I'll do it if I get the time.

The voice circuits used within the clone remain faithful to those of the original machine. In other words they remain mostly unchanged, except where I've added controls for extra tweakage. Most semiconductors have been substituted for modern equivalents that are more easily available. Most of the TR-909 sounds are completely analogue and hence some pretty intricate discrete circuitry is involved. Only the hi-hat and cymbal are 'digital' since the TR-909 used samples contained within three 32K ROMs for these.
