Silent Way and TouchOSC demo

"The forthcoming v1.1 of Expert Sleepers Silent Way has an enhanced OSC implementation that makes it possible to use with the popular TouchOSC iPhone app. This video shows this in action."
shiner hex oscillator + light box in photo feedback loop
YouTube via danielfiction
"here we have two wooden box circuits interacting with each other. the hex oscillator is made in the style of nic collins: six photocells mixed to diodes and competing for voltage dominance. it's housed in a 9.99 gram weight box with a sliding lid so user can control how much light is getting in. let it all hang out.
the light box is an original circuit made with a solid state relay. it pumps out AC in beat frequencies between an audio input and 60 hz. so the lights flicker in response to what you plug into it. in this case, the hex oscillator is the input, which in turn is modulated by the flickering light, and ta daaa! a light-based feedback loop.
autofocus can't handle the intense flickering, so go on and get blurry!"

"vintage synth demo by RetroSound
'Digital Vibes'
bassline: Yamaha DX7 II FD, sequenced by the MFB Step64 step sequencer and sync with the TR-707
digital pad sounds: Roland JD-800, played with the Waldorf Gecko chord memorizer (the yellow tool)
drums: Roland TR-707
FX: reverb and delay"
Doepfer Drums Analog Modular
YouTube via Analogger
"Doepfer / Livewire modules
I just stuck a bunch of patch cables together to see what would happen. The bass drum sound came from the A105 24db lowpass filter (very fat)
Osillators and noise was used as perccussion sounds and were processed thu the Livewire 105 ssm VFC - I used the hp ouput - very gnarley sounding"
Some KORG KAOSS Pad in there as well.

MODULAR SYNTH PROTOTYPE DEMO
MODULAR SYNTH PROTOTYPE DEMO from BLCLONES on Vimeo.
"This is a quick setup to demonstrate the modular in a music setting. It can handle midi no problem. The lower notes are the modular. The higher lead is a Juno 60. I am about to sell this sucker on ebay. I just have to make it all tidy and neat with tie straps. There is nothing out there that quite sounds like this modular. It can sound very old skool. The vco's have SuperSaw waveforms.
I can only do so much with (1) hand. I have to hold the camera." On Ebay
Yet, Another Pattern Bussing Demo
YouTube via morbius001
"This is only a DEMO showing how easily the anlog-modular Q960 sequencer can be used to change sequence patterns 'on-the-fly', which is especially great for improvisational work. Imagine you have other music-tracks playing (or even other instruments in a band)... and you wish to change-up how the sequence patterns sound... not just 'skipping' notes, but completely re-ordering reset-points. My technique works really well when you're looking for "that feel" that works with what you're doing or hearing at that time."
Next Life Progression
"Just a little sequencer "noodling" (playing around)... using the 'pattern bussing' technique I use to alter the 'reset-points' of the analog modular sequencer. No digital, or soft-synths were used to create this piece."
