TouchOsc controlling Modular Synth

TouchOsc controlling Modular Synth from a guy called tom on Vimeo.

"TouchOsc iPhone app sending osc data into PureData Extended, where it is converted to midi and sent to the Doepfer MCV24 which converts it to voltage and controls the modular synth.
TouchOsc XY Pad controls the pitch of two Thomas Henry VCO-1 which also crossmodulate each other.
TouchOsc Sliders control Elby Steiner filter cutoff, Plan B Model 10 env cycle speed, Doepfer BBD feedback and delay. Thomas White LPG used in both mode for amplification. Delay is a Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai. Sorry for the video quality, its done using a photo cam.
Using TouchOsc is fun, there is a lot of control right at your fingertips. Actually it can control way more than i have to control :) Really cool app. Disadvantage is the steping in the control voltages that you can hear quite well, especially when controlling the pitch of oscillators. Not sure if its the midi resolution, the mcv24 or the application itself."

Electro Harmonix Memory Boy Synthesizer Module DIY

YouTube via MrRitchieDrums | September 06, 2010

"Synthesizers & guitar effects pedals have always worked great together. Having a stomp box with my synth is not comfortable for me. Analogue delay synth modules currently sell for $400-$500. - WAY OUT OF MY BUDGET!!! So I converted a Memory Boy pedal to a module for UNDER $140. My cousin cut the pedal box down to a panel & I added jacks to work in the front for easy patching!"

"El joven Kaleth, aprendiz del dancehall y la vía rastafari, finalmente está listo para dominar el paso secreto y centenario del dancehall que acerca a quienes lo conocen a la reina del Pum pum shot. Huba, su maestro, teme lo inminente de su propia muerte, y así se lo hace saber. La suerte está echada. Y, a final de cuentas, Sirtaker es solo un mensajero más de Babylon.

[Googlish: "The young Kaleth, apprentice and route dancehall Rastafarian, is finally ready to master the secret passage and the centenary of the dancehall that comes to those who know the queen of Pum pum shot. Huba, his teacher, the imminent fear of his own death, and so he does know. The die is cast. And, ultimately, is only a messenger Sirtaker over Babylon."]

Composed by Yuichi Onoue

This is re-uploaded video. Because the same video which was uploaded before on Youtube was corrupted.

Onoue plays his handmade ribbon controller.
It can change a oscillator pitch smoothly, depending on the place which you press down. It was originally made as a kind of MOOG SYNTHESIZER's controller in late 60's. I made this following its example. And playing style is self-taught.
