"here is the finished module using a proto PCB. works quite fine!
it basically is a 4017 based step sequencer providing CV out, Trigger out, and Gate out. the tricky part is the voltage control of the possible patterns: an incoming CV gets manually scaled to 0-5V (LEDs will help to do that), and then gets processed by a 8-bit ADC. the parallel out gets converted to grey code and switches the steps/stages of the sequencer on or off. they can be controlled manually too, by using the toggle switches that overwrite the ADC data...

"From a California garage to Royal Albert Hall, Mellodrama is a documentary film by Dianna Dilworth that explores how the haunting sound of an ingenious contraption called the Mellotron changed the production and texture of popular music, from the Beatles to Kanye West.

Link-O-Logic iMoog

via Link-O-Logic: "I sampled some Moog Voyager sounds and made a free Kontakt instrument. All samples are made with analog outboard gear like API A2D, 5500, 2500, SMC 2b or Hammer EQ. For now you can download the first two demo packs: "Big Boy" and "I saw U". More sound packs will come."

Limit Cycle - Max4Live EP

"These four tracks are in a sense experiments: They are all made using possibilities open up by Max4Live, the extension to Ableton's Live sequencing software, which allows for easier control over things such as algorithmic composition. And this EP is filled of just that. Variations on the concept spawned by Per Nørgaard's Infinity Series are restrained by mutating scale quantizers while psuedo-random pattern and weighted random generators create constantly moving rythmic material. These numbers comes to life via synthesizers in which all sound parameters are slightly, slowly moving, creating an organic texture of sounds. These tracks could have been created before Max4Live of course, but I can only imagine having to spend at least 6 months on every track, working out these tremendously complex mathematical relations between the notes by hand, in a traditional sequencing enviroment."
