"I wanted to get a manual of some sort uploaded before shipping the rest of the first batch of modules. I will be stepping through the names on waiting list soon to see who is still interested and ready to buy a tested module..."

Electric Independence: Emeralds

Synths come in after the three minute mark. Cool miniature moog synth pillow. :)

"It’s not everyday we get to (or want to) go to Cleveland, but when the opportunity came along to hang with one of the most exciting young synthesizer-based acts in the world, we put our snow boots on and headed (mid)west.

Emeralds, made up of Steve Hauschildt, Mark McGuire and John Elliot have only been sculpting their impossibly beautiful and impeccably crafted cosmic drift since 2006, yet have left a bevy of mind expanding, bone shaking cassettes, CD-R’s and LP’s in their wake.

With a rich history of rock’n roll and punk Cleveland might seem a curious place for these three cosmic crusaders to be busting out the synthesizers, but their surroundings are as important to their sound as the electronics themselves.

The guys took us around their studio, showed us the magic of the ‘Emerald Necklace’ and tried to out bowl us at down at the local lanes."

HP Oscillators Used for Hollow Sun's Oscillosine

HP oscillators used in Hollow Sun's new Oscillosine, first posted here.

Pic via Atomic Shadow, posted in The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge Photos.

"I am recording a series of pieces using this equipment for the next Atomic Shadow project."

Update: on the oscillators:
"For the upcoming Oscillosine, from Hollow Sun, two Hewlett Packard oscillators were mutli-sampled at mini thirds for their across their audible range. The 200ABR model provided continuous tones. The 201CR model was malfunctioning at the time and was beeping so that was sampled at minor thirds as well. These sounds were used to create the two demos that are live on the Oscillosine site. Full Moon 3 will probably be on the next Atomic Shadow collection.

The smaller generator in the photo is B&K 301B Sine/Square transistor oscillator. The square waves were also sampled and may feature on a future Hollow Sun Kontakt instrument."

"This amateur tutorial shows how to get some sound out of a Serge Modular with only one 8step SequencerA and a clock."

"Finally the wave gets a bit animated - conclusion of the SeqA as waveform generator and only one of example what you can do with just CV processing blocks..."

TUTORIAL: Why we love the SERGE: Part Four from Klaus Gstettner on Vimeo.

"Fourth episode of the amateur tutorial series featuring the QUADSLOPE, maybe the most versatile Module of the SERGE M-Class System. Four slope generators, this time generating and processing sound. After an introduction to the module a simple waveform is generated, topped with some harmonics by a pulse divider and boolean logic modules."

"The QUADSLOPE M-Module, second part:
After introducing the Slope Generator as audio source and getting a static (=boring) sound out of it we use another instance to make it interesting."
