Octavian Keyboard Calculator Now with Sound

via bitnotic

"We just wrapped up our first update to Octavian. The main feature is the one that almost everyone requested, which is sound. We went to our favorite studio, SuperDigital, in Portland, OR and sampled their Kawai baby grand. We hand-tweaked each note to give it just enough body and a little hammer action, and put in some slick mixing to play back eight note chords without wrecking your iPhone or iPod touch speakers."

Trommelmaschine Mk. 1 - Mechanical drum machine


"A working prototype for a large scale sculpture, which will use petrol engines, crankshafts and pistons to play percussion.

This prototype machine uses DC motors to drive Lego Technic crankshafts and pistons which strike piezo transducers to trigger drum sounds from a drum machine circuit board. There are no Lego kits or anything involved in this, it is all hand built.

Thanks to elastic band drive belts this machine works sporadically, as you can see in the video, but it proves the theory, allowing me to move on to developing the large scale 'Trommelmaschine'."

Flight of Harmony: The Sound of Shadows

flickr by Analogue Haven

"Here's a great shot of the new Flight of Harmony The Sound of Shadows delay module. The SoS is a dirty digital delay based on the Princeton chip commonly used in effects pedals. Flight of Harmony has also included a VCA, and of course the module features a feedback loop and a good amount of voltage control. The Sound of Shadows will be available in December and the price will be $195. Photo credit: Soy Sos from Muff Wiggler. Also shown: Make Noise QMMG, Tiptop Audio Z3000, Flight of Harmony Plague Bearer barebones kit built into a DIY panel, Doepfer and MFB modules.

Elektron Machinedrum triggering BOSS SYB-5 Bass Synthesizer pedal

Elektron Machinedrum triggering BOSS SYB-5 Bass Synthesizer pedal from lefthandedheroes on Vimeo.

"Elektron Machinedrum SPS-1 UW GND-SN machine triggering BOSS SYB-5 bass synthesizer pedal. The GND-SN machine routed to an individual out -> Boss SYB-5 -> INP-EA machine for filtering.
Just realized that the first few minutes had that stupid delay on.
All other sounds are machinedrum GND-SN sine machines!
At the time of recording I was first time trying out the pedal, only discovering the possibilities.
The video is to show what kind of sounds you can get triggering the SYB-5 with a GND-SN and was put into an electronic context.
Not a musical statement.
The video was shot with a Nokia N95, the sound quality is far from amazing.
