ShuffleBox

More info on the ML-303 TB-303 clone here.

"This is a MIDI to DIN Sync interface that adds shuffle to old machines & sequencers like TB-303,TR-606,TR-808,MC-202,... Input can be MIDI or DIN, Output is MIDI & DIN timing shuffled. The shuffle amount can be adjusted with the potentiometer. The interface also has a Start/Stop button to stop and restart the synced device without losing synchronization. In this video you can see a modified 606 with internal shuffle (see my other videos) and an ML-303 (DIY TB-303 clone). The electronics inside the box will be available as a DIY kit for about 40-50€"

"phil cirocco did a pretty thing, very pretty, very clever thing.

perhaps tangent: it is mine belief that the capitalism of the home electronics revolution virally infected the electronic music instrument space with horrible biases on specification over simian-mindful constructs.

genoqs' success is an example of cultural recovery from this. it could be said that old kit like this odyssey tend towards the simian-mindful.

that said, binding cc#42 to sample start position is hardly simian-mindful."

You might remember this Odyssey from this post.

Tim and Binder

"Secret Swords played in Columbus last night with our great pals Wicked Lung & The Wookalar www.myspace.com/wickedlungwookalar - they played all new songs that had me doing the shoulder dance like a freaking jackass maniac the entire time. Before the show we all hung out at Jason's and Elisa's for a bbq, which was awesome. The Tim and Binder dudes were talking about how they build their synthesizers from scratch, and the terminology they used was like a foreign language and completely over my head. They were a.ma.zing.

Oh yeah and there was free PBR for the bands last night which is always awesome and dangerous at the same time. Afterhour's was at Jason and Elisa's. I passed out on the couch at around 4am, we hit the road around a painful 9:00.

It was another totally amazing Columbus trip.

I am hungover."

EHX Flanger Hoax Feedback Loop

YouTube via Analogger
"This is a noise improv where I routed the Flanger Hoax effect out to the input and ran the blend out into a ModFactor and then into a mixer. The sound was sometimes processed with a little reverb, delay, and TC electronic FireworX."
