vegetable synth

YouTube via JvGrieken — April 05, 2010 — "HKU, Utrecht, Netherlands 27-03-2010
A short sequence of some people playing the vegetable synth. This is a project I made for experimental sculpture class in the first year fine arts at HKU. It's powered by an arduino and uses a max/msp patch for the sound. All the editing was done in final cut pro." via electro-music.com

VINTAGE SIMMONS PORTAKIT MIDI DRUM SYNTH MACHINE

via this auction

"A pad to midi controller, the Portakit has 6 drum mic inputs as well as 7 built in dynamic pads. Up to 50 memories are on board, along with a pattern sequencer to memorize pad hits. The sequencer has a memory capacity of up to 10,000 events w/ auto quantize, programmable tempos, and overdub. Up to 12 sequences can be stored. Simmons is utilizing RForce sensing filmS technology to help eliminate crosstalk between pads, and there are ten dynamic curves to suit the players style. also included are inputs for bass drum and hi-hat pedals. The Simmons Portakit offers much more than a convenient way to trigger the sounds of MIDI Drum Machines and Samples in a compact kit format. Add bass drum and Hi-Hat pedals, and you can access a total of 14 playing surfaces in one portable package.

Force sensing film technology combined with a high-bounce rubber playing surface means no cross-talk between Pads and ensures a lively stick response. You can even choose a Dynamic Curve for each pad to suit your playing style. MIDI effects such as Pitch Bend, After Touch and Control Changes can also be generated by the Pads. The amount of the effect produced is proportional to the pressure you exert.

50 kit memories allow you to store MIDI notes, durations, dynamic curves and MIDI channels for each of the 14 pads. In addition, you can store Program Changes, a MIDI effect and Tempo for the kit.

Kits are recalled at the touch of a button, or external footswitch. For live use, you can pre-program the kits you want to use in one of 20 song memories and combine these with MIDI Start, Stop and Continue Commands along with MIDI Song Selects to reconfigure your entire MIDI set-up in seconds. An on-board polyphonic sequencer lets you record and overdub complex rhythm tracks. 12 sequences can be recorded.

The Simmons Portakit will read and generate MIDI clocks to sync to anything else. Six external inputs, coupled with Simmons unique LEARN facility enable you to cleanly trigger MIDI devices from Simmons pads, tape signals or even acoustic drum microphones.

This Portakit Pad-to-Midi Controller is in very good condition, fully functional, and includes a photocopy of the operation manual. The pad surfaces are in excellent condition, with excellent bounce and no cracking / drying out.

"Handmade Analog Synthesizer Module MIDI controled By AtomoSynth

VCO: This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

Glide: effect control with a wide range that allows radical effects.

White noise generator with 2 modes: Mode1 triggers the VCO affecting the frequency and can create percussion like sounds. Mode2 mix the noise with the VCO signal, adding texture to the waveform.

LFO: One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds. Also it modulates the VCF (voltage controled filter) creating a tremolo effect. It has a led that shows the LFO rate.

VCF: (vactrol based Low Pass Filter) with cut off and ressonance controls that can be modulated by the LFO and the VCO depth, It also features a decay control with 3 modes: positive, flat, and negative.

envelope generator with attack and release control.

The Krakken features a MIDI to control voltage converter with a range of 5 octaves, You can play it with any midi keyboard, controler or midi sequencer, also you can connect the Krakken to your computer (with a usb to midi adaptor) and sequence with any midi software.

It can be set to any midi channel from 1 to 16, it has a display that shows the actual midi channel.

You can control any external analog synthesizer with the CV and Gate Outputs (1Volt/octave), even at the same time you can control the Krakken with a analog sequencer via the CV and Gate imputs.

Also you can connect many Krakken synthesizers in chain with its midi thru output to a computer or midi sequencer and each one will play a different midi channel.

The instrument is is housed in a clear, laser cut, acrilic case that shows the analog circuitry.

It is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC.
Dimensions: 230mm(W), 170 mm(D), 80mm(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)

MOOG CP-251 CONTROL PROCESSOR

via this auction
"The CP-251 Control Processor can be used in connection with one or more Moogerfooger analog effects modules, the Minimoog Voyager, or other voltage-controlled gear. The CP-251 adds the same kind of power and versatility of the classic MOOG modular synthesizers.

There are two kinds of signals in a modular analog synthesizer: audio and control. As audio signals go through a system of synthesizer modules, they get shaped into the sounds that you hear. Control signals, on the other hand, correspond to the variations in the sound that are imparted by the synthesizer modules, like invisible hands that turn the knobs of the modules.

The CP-251 provides a dual waveform LFO, Noise Generator, Sample-and-Hold circuit, as well as two attenuators, a lag processor, a CV mixer and a 4-way mult. This gives you ways to modify, mix, and distribute control voltages to produce the incredible variety of sounds and effects that analog synthesizers are famous for."
