MacBeth's Majestic 12 Live


YouTube Uploaded by macbethsynthesizers on Apr 4, 2012

"This is a seldom seen in colour impromtu video taken of one of the first times that I fired up the MacBeth Majestic-12, 5U Mk1 Modular system. You can also see the 8 module 'barabus' synth that went to NAMM '11. That mini system is being played by both the analogue keyboard controller that I designed and the touch keyboard that I was working on. My neighbour Colin Stewart did the videography..."

"Jamming with the ARP 1601 Sequencer firing the kick drum on the Odyssey and the main sequence coming from the 2600. Other hardware instruments include the Minimoog and the Andromeda while software consists of Stylux RMX, Omnishpere & impOSCar2

Sometimes it's not about hard vs soft, it's simply about how well things work together."

Realistic (Moog) MG-1 Panel Restoration


YouTube Uploaded by fredturd on Apr 4, 2012

"Restoring a Realistic (Moog) MG-1 Panel using Purple cleaner which will leave it looking almost brand new. Background audio is courtesy of my week-old Taurus 3 - so there should not be any false copyright claims.

I have used Purple Cleaner to clean mylar arcade-machine overlays for years. Purple Clean will not affect mylar.

I had determined beforehand that the metal panel was painted with acrylic lacquer below the mylar. The factory probably used lacquer because of it's quick-drying capabilities Purple clean will not affect acrylic lacquer, but it will also clean oily grime and enamel based paint from ABS, mylar, and polystyrene leaving it super-clean. I also cleaned the plastic sides (not on video). You can use mineral oil to wipe down plastics they have a little cloudiness after cleaning.

Finally the Purple Clean needs to be neutralized with water. I did not want to get the whole panel wet so I first wiped off the cleaner and then used a moist rag to neutralize the rest.

This is a trick that I learned from the model-car hobby. I am sure there many web pages and videos describing what you can do with purple cleaner.

Warning: Purple Cleaner uses a form of Sodium Hydroxide which is caustic and with improper use it could burn your skin on contact, along with your eyes, and sinuses with the vapor alone. Use with caution. If you cannot find Purple Cleaner, then you can use an automotive orange cleaner (just make sure it does not have any pumice)."

Circuit Abbey - Gravity Well Demo

Circuit Abbey - Gravity Well_demo 1

YouTube Uploaded by DJjondent on Apr 4, 2012

"The gravity well uses cv to shape audio.
Where a filter removes certain harmonics the Gravity Well modulates
the existing waveform to create new sounds.

I'm using a doepfer A110 VCO (sequenced with a Modcam touch sequencer)
Square & sine waves are fed into a A114 ring modulator. Its output goes into the
Gravity Well.

The Gravity Well has 4 CV inputs.
I'm feeding a sine wave LFO into the first input (called latitude)
Into the second input (called Longitude) I later (1m,55 secs) feed a random CV.
This was generated using a combination of a noise generator, a sample/hold & a comparator.
A 4MS Noise Swash, Buchla 265 (Source of uncertainity) or the MakeNoise Wogglebug
would also prob work well as random sources of control voltages.

Modules used:
Circuit Abbey Gravity Well
Doepfer A110 VCO
Doepfer A114 Ring Mod
Modcan Touch Sequencer
Doepfer A118 Noise Gen
Doepfer A148 Sample/H
Circuit Abbey TripFire (Comparator)

Many thanks to Matt from Rhythm Active for supplying the Modcan Sequencer, The Circuit Abbey Gravity Well and Tripfire
