Hack a Day - How-To: Make a digital synthesizer

"This simple guide will show you how to build a digital synthesizer that generates and manipulates square waves. Your synthesizer will have one oscillator, which produces a variable pitch controlled by a potentiometer, as well as an LFO which modulates that pitch at a variable frequency. The part count for this project is quite low, and it can be built for under $20."

The Pod - "Techno is not a Joke"


YouTube via clothears2000. For The Mighty Boosh fans out there.
"'Techno is not a Joke'.
Animated adventures of techno art collective The Pod. The Pod are a late eighties electronic dance outfit trying to cope with the mid nineties post rave come down. 'The most technologically advanced sit com in the world'. I made this about five years ago and has never really been seen except at a few screenings and festivals. Stars myself and Julian Barratt. Still one of my favourite films. Julian is brilliant and my performance isn't too bad for once. Also stars my mate Andy Bone."

YouTube via tyu10002000
"ARP 2500 Modular Synth+JAZZBASS chalenge! BASS!! A favorite. There is it in a column. An analog synthesizer. In a phrase. I arrange a base."

Machine Boy

"Building A Better Boy was created
with a Roland MC50 & Alesis Micron synth
handling the bassline, the speech is created with
an apple mac running Simpletext in os9, the
melodyline is a couple of Subtractor synths in Reason and the
Boss DR55 handles the drums.
The track is assembled and finished
in Logic Audio on a G4 mac."

Analog Echo EM-006


YouTube via moogfreak
"Hello outside. This is a video about an old little juicy echo-machine called "Analog Echo EM-006". In this video you can see and more important hear, what this nice-sounding vintage-echo-machine can do with the beat of an also old analog Roland TR606 drum-machine."

BOSS GE-10 graphic equalizer

YouTube via moogfreak
"This is the vintage analogue BOSS graphic equalizer GE-10. In this video I will show the potential of this old nice-sounding EQ by equalizing a sequence played with the moog prodigy analog synthesizer. Please excuse the little pumping of the compressor from my videocam."

MC303 sound demo


YouTube via se7ense7
"long video with me browsing through a lot of the sounds of the MC303 groovebox by Roland. I bought this little piece of equiptment as an add-on to my synth and recording based studio, and to be able to make little sketches just using the MC303. I use it mainly as a soundsource, and I sure love those sounds. You just have to know where to use them. Pz, ARD"
