RAB Meets Playboy


via Dave of umop.com and creator of our favorite synth rat, The Packrat: "Just working on a cartoon for playboy.com featuring characters from Retarded Animal Babies. This pic shows a scene with the Hamster character playing on a 90% autobiographical synth rig. There's a weird red & grey keyboard that's totally made-up, otherwise it's my Plastica rig. The Axis keytar isn't done yet, but Customsynth will be finishing it in the hopefully not-too-distant future. The white JD-800 ("Gandalf") that he made is in there, a boring ol' TR-61, and a Nord Lead Anniversary. The brand names have all been changed, since these companies may not want to be associated with completely filthy animations." :) Note Dave also plays in Paralax. You can find a few of his vids previously posted here.

AtomoSynth Mochika2 Now Available

follow-up to this post.

"www.atomolabs.blogspot.com
Make insane effect loops, cool phrases, fat basslines or crazy percusion rhythms, change the sound in real time by tweeking the knobs on stage or in studio or connect it to your favorite effects (delay, flange, etc, etc)and create a wide sort of rhytm textures and soundscapes with this beautiful lighted analog sequencer synth box...

And now sync it to any midi device like a drumbox midi sequencer or computer and play live!!!

This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds.

White noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds.

8 step Sequencer with note on/off switch and pitch knob for each step

It features a 1/4 inch audio output, 1/4 inch CV Output (to control other analog gear).

The Mochika2 features a MIDI input to sync the Mochika with any midi device sending midi clock signals, the mochika can sync 1, 2, 4 and up to 8 times the tempo of the master clock midi device, also it can be used as a midi to gate converter to sync other analog gear using the CV output of the Mochika2.

Also the instrument is ligthed with 1 bright green led that indicates the LFO Rate, and 8 blue leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage.
The Analog Sequencer is packed in a cool laser cut clear acrilic case that shows all the hand made analog circuitry.

The instrument is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC.
Dimensions: 230mm(W), 170 mm(D), 80mm(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)

CIRCUIT BENT MODULAR SEQUENCER

via this auction
not the best shots, but some interesting bits: "K-TRONIK CUSTOM PROTOTYPE ENCHIDNA DUAL CHANNEL STEP SEQUENCER & DUAL CIRCUIT BENT SPEAK & SPELL SYSTEM WITH OPTIONAL MIDI MODULE. THIS is the ONLY SYSTEM of It's Kind.

It is A Unique Modular Synthesizer System Comprised of A Custom Encased Enchidna Sequencer with Dual Linkable Buses, Two Fully Professionally Circuit Bent Texas Instruments Speak & Spell Units & A Dual Channel Midi Module for Use in Dual Circuit Bent Instrument Midi Sequencing.

This Unit was Specially Designed & Custom Built For Me by K-Tronik ( http://ktronik.com/echidna.html ) Who Collaborated with Peter Edwards of CasperElectronics on a Number of Particular Instrument Designs; -Specifically the Highly Sought TI Units Employing the Double Stacked Knobs Employed in this System... These Double-Stacked Knobs are No Longer in Production & This Design Can Not be Reproduced... So This Is It...


ALL Four Units Are In Perfect Condition -& All Switches, Knobs, Ports & Membranes on All Sections are 100% Fully Functional. The Sequencer Unit & the Midi Brain Unit Both Employ Readily Available Ports Hardware that can be Utilized to Connect Other Instruments & Devices For Either Enabling Sequencing Or Midi Control of Other Devices or Both.

The Sequencer & Both Speak & Spell Units Run on standard 6v DC Adaptors. Both Speak & Spell Units have 1/8 inch Outputs for Insertion to Doepfer, Cwejman; or other Modular Synthesizer Systems For Filtering, Effects Processing, Amplification & Recording.

If You Are Into Sequencers, Modular Synths & Circuit Bent Devices; This Might Be the Pivitol Experimental Sequencing & MIDI Package You have been Waiting For."
