Circuit Bent E-mu MP7 Command Station

via this auction
"-circuit bent with freely routeable 24 point rotary patchbay for the maximum in flexibility.
-points were carefully researched and arranged in order of harmonics whenever possible. very intuitive interface.
-chrome chickenhead knobs
-heavy duty toggles activates rotary patchbay connections
-db25 connector added- adds the option of expanding the e-mu commandstation units with the spunkytoofers mm1 midi module.

connector supplies power to the mm1 as well as allows circuit bending over midi via added midi circuitry.

the mm1 allows a tightly integrated system with the e-mu that can trigger it's own bends and other compatible bent devices.

all spunkytoofers instruments are now all compatible with mm1.

mm1 is sold seperately.
-unit is expandable with up to 3 more e-mu rom cards
-2 blue jewel lenses with bright blue lighting
-solid build and and quality components used throughout
-don't have a way to check the spdif output but should be fine.
-comes with power cord, bend diagram, and pdf manual
-support and warranty work covered for modifications

the e-mu command stations are perfect companions for the mm1 for a centerpiece for modular circuit bending over midi. there is no better way to sequence all your circuit bent devices than starting with one of the most powerful hardware sequencers ever made. modular sequencing and circuit bending is all possible through the e-mu command stations. the internal synthesizer in the command station is truly a powerful synthesizer and practically all waveforms within respond to the pressures of circuit bending. there are complex filters onboard and can virtually create any kind of circuit bent sound so long as you can picture it in your head. want a circuit bent speak and spell looping sound in one of the 32 sequencer tracks available? no problem. bend vocal roms applied with formant filters and will sound like a bent speak and spell. it does a whole lot more and covers alot of sonic territory within the onboad circuit bent synthesizer. the synthesizer sports a huge modulation matrix both in synthesis and circuit bending.

simple drum patterns are reconfigured rhythmically, tonally, and you can shape the circuit bent sounds any way you like with the powerful proteus 2000 synth engine onboard. 128 voices of sequenced mayhem is possible on this device. you can also add your controllers on top of the sequencer to any of the 16 voice parts. in addition to onboard sequencing you can sequence outboard midi gear. this makes it perfect companions with any spunkytoofers instruments with midi since they can integrate seamlessly."

Access Music, the company behind the multiple award winning Virus TI series of synthesizers today released their new operating system OS4 (version 4.0.5.01). During an extensive public beta test phase over the last three month, the recently added algorithms were refined and improved even further.
The new version, which is compatible with the entire Virus TI range of synthesizers, features stomp box style distortion effects, a vowel and comb filter and an enhanced arpeggiator which acts similar to a modulation sequencer. Also, a new setup tutorial was added focusing on getting the best out of Total Integration with modern PCs or Macs.
