MonoMiK ADSR demonstration

YouTube via MusicMiK. You can see the previous videos by MusicMiK posted here.
"It took quite a while due to vacation and some stress the last weeks, but finally, i soldered this module together. This was sort of much more difficult due to the very compact layout i needed so save some space in the overall construction behind those modules.

As usual, you can find more information about the project and the schematics for the modules via the blog: http://www.mik-music.org/tiki/blog1"

"this is before I got my 4-channel speaker system -- its all coming out of an old stereo with one bad channel. and no -- no arbitrary function generator (aka sequencer). some great sound I stumbled on soon after getting this machine....."

Gakken SX-150 Schematic

via HOSHUYAMA on AH.
"Its schematic is already revealed in its instruction manual, however, it does not include component values. To get the schematic with component values, which is essential for us, I made one from the open information on the internet and some measurement of an SX-150. Actually, this small synth was designed by our Naoki Iwakami (AKA. "GAN" in this list). The design is unusual to save the cost, but very clever and unique!"

"It’s the famous TB303 sequencer redesigned from my friends at the lötstelle 303. it is a non-public project."

ARP Odyssey Oscillators - Clone

via AndyR1960 on this electro-music.com thread.

"I've just built a clone of the ARP Odyssey Oscillators (MkIII), including the Ring Mod - All works great, very pleased. ...except that the oscillators are locking together when I get close to unison.... it's an exact copy of the Oscillator section of the PCB, and no component substitutions have been made, apart from using good quality WIMA 680pf timing caps instead of polystyrene and multiturn trimmers."

The Red Rig

"Check out my brother's crazy-ass new electronic drum rig... he's spent months planning it & working on it!"
...
"OK folks... Here it is, in all its '80s glory: the 6-sided Red Rig. Made to mimic the look of the vintage drum pads, it's made of 100% PVC pipe and copper pad fittings. All custom designed - made it up as I went along. The wiring harness took about a day to make, and is almost completely hidden inside the tubes themselves. The ends just hang in place for quick connection to the pads when setting up, and to connect to the snake that feeds the equipment rack.

Black and red cymbals are made by Krest out of Brazil and took 8 months to get the order finalized and shipped. (There is only one U.S. rep.)

Not in place in these shots is the standard hi-hat stand (although I might try to paint it, too) which also uses black cymbals. "Gong" at rear works, and can trigger any sound source I feed it. (Sadly, I don't have an actual gong sound - yet. Need a rack-mount sampler.) The entire rig uses no standard metal pieces - except the hi-hat stand - and breaks down into smaller pieces. The top and bottom "rings" split in half, held together with quick-release hood pins - like from a race car.

The footprint is not significantly bigger than my old setup, considering my amp and rack can reside inside this space. It's 6'8" point-to-point. Biggest challenge is that the paint - which supposedly is formulated for plastic surfaces - scratches easier than a bag of rabid cats, even with multiple coats and 3 layers of urethane. This is what prompted me to go to the next level: I'm going to give it the Eddie Van Halen 'Frankenstein' look. May start doing it this weekend."

Update: new pics added to the set. "He Frankenstein-ified the red rig."
