DIY Digital Analog Modular

via this craigslist post
"modules include:
-6x Square Oscillators ranging from low HZ for LFO/Clocks (maybe even under 1hz, I have no way to measure it.) up to 2+ mhz.
-ENV+VCA (voltage controlled ATTENUATOR), this module is used for digital signals, but you can input an analog signal, it makes it very crusty and strange sounding with analog. Attack and Decay.
-64 bit Shift Register, a very interesting module that can be used as a step gate sequencer, as an interesting buffer override/glitch module, bit reduction or more..

-Input module, used for inputting external signals, such as drum machines or microphones.
-2x 4 bit shift registers, can be used as a random bit generator, small step sequencer, bit reducer or more..
-2x 4bit binary counters, used as clock/octave dividers or more...
-4-bit DAC
This unit uses banana jacks. and also has 1/4" and 1/8" outputs."

"this last one has an er-1 on the input providing the percussion but the unit is processing it"

"My first complete hand made pcb for a dub siren / atari punk analog synth noise ting (Dub step Aracade ). i used some clear decal paper to print the screen print detail.
The circuit trace was applied using press-n-peel transferre film.

circuit trace is a little blurred from the transferre process nothing i coudnt sort with a marker pen and craft knife."

"A pattern I came up with today, I feel it has a dreamy type sound or at least that was the original idea. My kaoss pad makes its first appearance in this video."

"Using a Launchpad as a harmonic table controller. Windows C++ program reads keypresses, maps notes and and drives Propellerheads Reason via Midi Yoke. Kind of like a poor mans Axis. Apologies for the playing.. I was kind of making it up as I went along."

Roland Fantom G Orchestra

YouTube via moretacos1
"Can the Fantom G play Orchestra?

I made this live set using these patches on the FG:

1. Big & Bad
2. Timpany
3. Concert Cymbal
4. Analog Voice
5. Angels Voice
6. Tubular Bell
7. F. Horns Section 1
8. Timpany Roll

You can have eight parts on a live set so I maxed it out. I could have made a new patch and combined the bell and the cymbal.

Please post your own Korg M3/Yamaha Motif XS orchestra videos to compare."

Maths sequence

Maths sequence from Peter Speer on Vimeo.

"Based on a small, elegant patch mentioned on the Muff Wiggler forum (thanks: Navs, Stufflinear, Porify), which you can find here: muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10863

I've made a few changes to the patch above, but it is the same general idea.

The changes include:

In the original, either Maths' SUM or OR out is controlling Channel 1's BOTH range. In this, the SUM and OR are sent to a mixer, and the output of which is controlling Channel 1's BOTH amount.

Maths' EOR output is clocking a Wogglebug, the Clock Out of which is triggering a Doepfer A-160 clock divider. (My first pass at this patch was a bit more involved, with the Wogglebug's CV outs controlling modules that ended up not being used here.)

The A-160's /2 output is triggering a Dr. Pad (Snare 1 sound). The /4 output is gating a Moog Rogue.

Maths' second Channel 1 output is sent to the Wave Env. amount input on a Wiard/Malekko Anti-Oscillator, adding a sort of "thwack!" to the sound.

Maths' Channel 4 outputs are sent to:

1. Bubblesound uLFO PWM input
2. Doepfer A-156 Quantizer CV in

The Quantizer's output is sent to a mult, and from there to:

1. 1 v/oct input on a Wiard/Malekko Anti-Oscillator
2. CV in on a Moog Rogue

The Anti-Oscillator's Triangle and Mayhem outputs are sent to Channel 1 and 2 on a QMMG. The AO is receiving FM from the uLFO, with the Pulse wave going to the EXP in and the Sine going to the LIN in.

The Trigger output from the 156 is sent to the first QMMG channel's CV input, which is shared between Channels 1 and 2 (both in LPG mode).

I look forward to getting a new, better camera. In the meantime, I apologize for the picture quality of this video.
