"Hand Made Analog Synth - Ellis Electronics - Ring mod and Amp mod

UP FOR BID ON EBAY

www.myspace.com/elliselectronics"

"This synth has two ring modulated square wave oscillators. Below each oscillator knob is an amplitude modulation control knob. Combining both of these modulation types creates some very rich and noisy waveforms full of side bands. The amplitude modulation can be turned on and off by the switch below each control knob. If carfully tuned, this synth will create some very intresting beating patterns.There is also a level control at the top right corner for accurate dynamic control.

Runs on an easy to replace 9V battery (INCLUDED)
Check out the pics and watch the video to listen to how it sounds.

1/4 inch output. ON/OFF switch. Blue ultra-bright LED Indicator Light.
Hook it up to effects like delay or distortion to expand the possibilities further.
Very sturdy and protective housing.


I hand make each of my synths and guarantee my products to work and sound GREAT.
Pay Pal Only
Contact me if you have any questions.

"Finally getting some workable results.

Poor lighting & 100% dubious musical content aside, I think this is the way to go - to be honest I didn't expect much from the clock out of the M.F.B CV/MIDI module - I have never really got decent results from MIDI Clock, which is why I own Sync Shift MkII #0024, which can fix the MIDI lag - but sadly not the MIDI slop!

Synth sound is the Blacet Suitcase being controlled by the SEQ-02 with woompwoommp bass & some hand drums from the MPC."

"M.F.B SEQ 01, SEQ 02 & M.F.B Dual LFO provide voltages for a Binary Zone, Mini-Wave & A-152 T&H driven dual Sine VCO sequence.

Please excuse the poor quality, just playing around with my new rig :-D

You need to imagine ALOT of bass under all the mid/hi tones you can hear in the video"

"I wacked this real passive ringmod toghether in 5 minutes.. Crazy noise! Everyone needs this efx unit...!"

JH-5 Living VCOs project progress

via JH on the AH list:
"Here's a little preview of what I'm working on. Looks like I can indeed put 3 VCOs plus an Oscillator Driver on a single board! This may get very close to the whole oscillator section of my JH-5, just on a single 160mm * 100mm PCB. (Board will have MOTM and Synthesizers.com connectors, and will run on +/-15V.)

The Pythagorean Lambdoma Harmonic Keyboard

Some details from the auction:
"THE LAMBDOMA HARMONIC KEYBOARD

Create concordant musical intervals with the harmonic keyboard add the magic of micro-tonal harmony to your life and projects tune into elegant solutions with the harmonic keyboard.

'There is geometry in the humming of the strings. There is music in the spacing of the spheres'. (Pythagoras 500BC)

The Lambdoma Matrix is attributed to the philosopher Pythagoras (500 bc) who spent over twenty years as an Egyptian initiate. The concept of the Lambdoma Matrix in the present age is relatively unknown, and is not cited in most dictionaries. On the surface, it appears to be nothing more than a mathematical multiplication and division table. On a closer look however, it bears a one-to-one relationship to musical intervals in a very specific harmonic series. Because of its numerical framework of ratios, it can be translated into frequencies of audible sound. The Lambdoma bears relationships to aromatics, chemistry, crystallography, cybernetics, art, music, geometry, all of which may be explored by those interested in the above disciplines. The Lambdoma bears mathematical relationships to Issac Newton, the Diophantine equations and the Farey series, as well as in the present century to Georg Cantor.

The Pythagorean Lambdoma Harmonic Keyboard has the unique capability of sounding any musical interval in a matrix of harmonic frequencies in the audible range. Its diamond-shaped matrix holds 64 keys in one quadrant. A total of 256 keys in any microtonal keynote may be played. Each keynote produces harmonic stereo intervals relating to the player's chosen keynote. Overlays of the three other quadrants in colors and frequencies of the musical notes (in a C scale) are included. Since another set of overlays of the intervals are based upon geometrical ratios, the shapes of the musical intervals may be seen as the keys are pushed. A user's manual is included on CD.

THE PLHK is divided in 4 quadrants: Oracle, Spiritual, Physical, and Emotional.

THIS Auction Includes a 17" by 9" by 1.5" Pythagorean Lambdoma Harmonic Keyboard, 8 Lambdoma Matrix overlays, power adapter, USB to Midi cable, Tune Smithy Software for PC, and user's manual. BUY IT NOW AND GET ALL 3 LAMBDOMA MATRIX BOOKS ABSOLUTELY FREE!

Description of the Lambdoma Keyboard
The Lambdoma keyboard has a right and a left duality based upon ratios that are <1>1. Ratios that are less than one are on the left side descend. Ratios that are more than 1 are on the right side of the diamond and ascend. When these ratios are multiplied by a frequency representing the musical notations C through C, or Do through Do, eight cycling notes of each scale are heard whether it be C, D, W, F, G, A, B –B or C. Any numerical phenomena may be used as a resonant musical note and placed into an eight-note scale. Therefore all numerical phenomena may be characterized as a musical notation and may be formed into an interdisciplinary data bank limited to eight modalities.

Unique Applications of the Lambdoma Keyboard
The Lambdoma tactile matrix keyboard has the unique ability to generate any keynote through its programming abilities using a Lambdoma_FTS software program with a Vista, XP – ‘Windows’computers. It is this generating feature of the Lambdoma Keyboard that allows any numerical frequency to be used as a fundamental audible frequency and enables an interdisciplinary application to the arts, sciences, education and health modalities.

TUNE SMITHY SOFTWARE
In the 1990’s the software was sent to Robert Walker of Fractal Tune Smithy in England who designed an entire software program for the “therapeutic” uses of the Lambdoma Keyboard, including a frame of Lissajous figures. These Lissajous figures have a one-to-one relationship to all the keys that are played at the same time on the Lambdoma Keyboard. A menu frame and a colored diamond keyboard frame are also shown on the monitor. The keyboard frame shows each of the keys pressed in the different colors depending on the keynote chosen.

BARBARA HERO
Barbara Hero is Founder of the International Lambdoma Research Institute and inventor of the Pythagorean Lambdoma Keyboard. With a Master's degree in mathematics and a background as a music composer and theorist, she combined ancient theories with color, sound and modern technology to create an instrument that brings healing and insight. The relationship between light, color, sound and their mathematical frequencies led Barbara to a deep understanding of the relationship we all have to space, sound and the lives we lead. The Lambdoma allows individuals to tune into their innate vibrations or key notes, allowing them to heal on a spiritual level. Entraining with our intrinsic frequencies connects us to the universal consciousness and gives insight to the goals that we chose for this lifetime."
