Update: nifty NAMM search via Colin of http://experimentalistsanonymous.com

"Hey Matrix, your readers might be interested to know that I wrote a little php script that basically just searches the exhibitor list.

http://experimentalistsanonymous.com/other/namm2010.php

The idea being that I am at NAMM with my iPhone (and no NAMM app) and I need to figure out where analog haven is:

http://experimentalistsanonymous.com/other/namm2010.php?company=haven&sort=company

or I want to find the guitar companies in each hall:

"Just trying out my new toys. These boxes sure get more fun to play with if you have more than one!"

One flew over the Crows nest

"Here is a clip focusing on the audio rather than the visuals...

Three Crowphonics CRO-1 modules, played live. No sequencer or other stuff involved."

Voltage Controlled Pattern Sequencer VCPS.mpg

YouTube via fonitronik.

follow-up to this post

"The 1st short demo of my new VCP Sequencer. VCP = Voltage Controlled Pattern. Yep, an incoming control voltage gets converted into a set of 8bit grey code. those bits switch on or off hte stages of an 8 step sequencer. however, each step/stage can manually set to ON, OFF or VCP too. So you have full control over each step all the time. In this Video the VCPS gets controlled by another Sequencer, the Baby10."

NOT NAMM: miniark.mov

YouTube via snazelle

"here is a very basic video of the 2nd snazzy fx product- the mini ark

(some of you know about last years audio ark)

(you can hear a bit of the actual dry guitar because the camera was so close to my guitar)

anyway, lots and lots of people asked me to make a box based on the audio ark. and this is what i came up with. It was originally designed for guitar, cello, and field recordings.on guitar it sounds much more like a tracking system/harmony pedal. on drums, bowed instruments, field recordings, and noise, it gets very unpredictable and you can always rely on it to create something unique. Right now this is my favorite to play with.

Foregone Inclusion - analog modular synth improv

YouTube via doctorvague
"Korg Monopoly (lower right) arpeggiator being clocked by the top row of the Moon Modular trigger sequencer (upper left). Bottom row of the sequencer is setting the Digital Delay time of the Modcan delay (far right white module). The Korg MS-20 (lower left) is being used for the filters in the feedback loop of the Modcan delay. NOTE: rest of patch and cords was leftover from another patch and has nothing to with what you're hearing. What you're hearing is the Monopoly into the Modcan delay with MS-20 in the delay loop - a very simple patch. The Monopoly is an amazing instrument IMHO. I'm just starting to see its potential. Ditto for the Moon trigger sequencer. It's a whole rhythmic instrument that can be played in real time.

This actually should have been called Part 3. It was the very ending of a much longer improv. The complete track is on Virb - doctorvague - Foregone Inclusion.

May I say just a general very hearty thank you for the kind comments and good juju here on youtube. Thanks to people watching - even you lurkers! And also to the grrrrreat folks who build all this cool stuff to play with and the friends at Muffwiggler's - an awesome hangout. Fun toys - good times."

Please meet RENÉ

YouTube via MAKEN0ISE
"The new sequencer for modular synthesizers, designed by Make Noise and developed with yerpa58. A short bunch of clips I took one afternoon while beta testing. The patch is same for all clips. Doepfer A-110 controlled by RENÉ CV OUT, Square Wave applied to QMMG which is set to BOTH mode and controlled by RENÉ Gate-X and Gate-Y. The RENÉ sequencer is driven by 3 clocks. The master clock generated by the Wogglebug, and then divided by MATHS to create the second and third clocks. Come see the Make Noise RENÉ, MATHS, Wogglebug and QMMG at NAMM 2010, Analogue Haven Boothe."

The white yusynth - first patches

"This is a short video of the beautiful white YUSYNTH modular built by my friend Zarko. It is composed mostly of yusynth modules ( http://yusynth.net/Modular/ ) and some modules designed by Jurgen Haible ( http://www.jhaible.de ), and Ray Wilson ( http://musicfromouterspace.com ).
