Silver Glitter x0xb0x Synthesizer

via this auction

"x0x with a special metal flake automotive paint from House of Kolor. It's a 4-stage paint, including primer, base coat, sparkly middle coat, and top clear coat. It was all shot through my Sata II paint gun in my garage and I must say it looks fantastic. It reminds me of Kustom amps from the 70s. It's basically like 70s boat paint! The back panel is a clear acrylic panel, which allows you to see all the analog goodness that makes this little guy sound so great!

The only mods done to the x0x were the bass boost mod, as well as the addition of a power switch on the back panel. Everything else is stock, with Adafruit firmware. It sounds fantastic, and will kick out sweet acid basslines all week while looking chic in your rig. When cutting the hole for the power switch, the acrylic cracked a tiny bit, which I've shown in a closeup photo. It's not very noticeable."

Here's my second Buchla 200e improv video. This time the patch is nearly self-playing, with minimal tweaking from yours truly."

joy of use: plenty
sonic experience with headphones: tranquilizing
live possibilities, apart from creating superb feedback noise: could be improved :)"

MIDI-to for iPad

"MiDi-to is a wireless DJ MiDi controller designed for Serato Scratch Live™. It is the first iPad MiDi controller designed for Serato that does not need any additional software to work. MiDi-to takes advantage of the new Core MIDI framework available with iOS 4.2 which minimizes setup and latency.

Our philosophy is to bring back the DJ's attention to their DJ set instead of their computer.

MiDi-to is designed by DJs for DJs with ease of use and ergonomics as priorities. It is a performance tool that empowers Serato users to control Cue points, FXs, Loops and track selection directly on the iPad. We tried to create a layout that is uncluttered and functional.

MiDi-to's features are divided into 3 practical views.

MAIN VIEW:
Trigger Cue points
Trigger Samples
Use your "Ultra Knob" FX and all the latest presets
Set manual loops
Set auto-loops on the fly
Reverse or "censor" the playing track
Change playback mode between Absolute, Relative and Internal quickly in emergencies (cleaning your needle for example)

FX VIEW:
Control your FX in "Super Knob Mode" for each deck.
In this view you can have up to 3 simultaneous FXs per deck.
All the latest Serato FX presets are included for quick and precise manipulation via ergonomic virtual faders.
Change the rhythm of the FX on the fly.

LIBRARY VIEW:
Navigate through your Crates and tracks directly from your iPad
Assign a song to the desired deck and play it!

The MiDi-to equipped iPad can be seamlessly integrated into a DJ setup providing a more hands-on approach to Serato's features while enabling the DJ to perform in novel ways.

MiDi-to's ambition is to become the platform for combining Turntablist and Controllerist performance techniques, for the next step in DJing.

MIDI-TO REQUIRES SERATO SCRATCH LIVE™ SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE CONNECTED TO A WI-FI EQUIPPED MAC. IT HAS BEEN TESTED AND OPTIMIZED FOR THE SL1 INTERFACE.

NO ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE NEEDED.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DOWNLOAD OUR OPTIMIZED SERATO MIDI MAPPING PRESET FROM OUR WEBSITE FOR A QUICK AND EASY SETUP.

You just need to connect the iPad to your computer via Wi-Fi.

FOR MORE INFO AND A STEP BY STEP VIDEO TUTORIAL PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE WWW.MIDI-TO.COM"

Sidrassi Organ

"Here's a video of me, Kirk Markarian, playing my Sidrassi Organ. My effect list is:
Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man
MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay
ZVEX Vexter Fuzz Factory
Electro-Harmonix Little Big Muff Pi
ProCo Rat 2
ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky

I don't use all of these effects at the same time. Less is more, quite often. The only effect that is on all the time is the Electro-Harmonix Little Big Muff Pi, because it gives me the sound I'm looking for."
