Squidfanny - "Steam-Punk" Omnichord Synthesizer (OM-27 April 2012)

"Antique Omnichord Synthesizer from 1981, well-modified......

Busted Power-Amp & Speaker has been removed and replaced with a Filter, LFO and a serious amount of circuit bending mods. Analog drum machine is now capable of new rhythms and new drum sounds. Glitch mods transform the huimble Omnichord into a respectable techno-esque analog synthesizer.

I very much dig the Omnichord, it's a highly understated artefact of the 80's and well worthy of all the time & effort spent on this mod.

Details -
This Omnichord was badly knackered when I got it, so firstly, added about 20 new little capacitors around the analog drums, to (mostly) remove the unwanted clicks & pops. Replaced the old electro. caps too.
Added a pre-amp to replace the busted power-amp, then a Filter & LFO made from a spare '4069' salvaged from another Omnichord.
6 x Switches above the rhythm buttons to combine the rhythm presets. Mute switches for the drums / chord / bass &Knobs for tweeking the drum decay. Metal Touch-points, LED Lights, chrome knobs & switches cover the machine."

"Adding one voice at a time, and then playing around with portamento, cutoff and resonance. It's a beast.

Dazibao Color Based Software Synthesizer for Mac

DemoDazibao2.m4v

YouTube Published on Apr 24, 2012 by HNMusiqueTV

"Introduction to a new music synthesizer. This musical instrument helps to create the sounds using colors and graphs. You can create easily and fast complex sounds with instead of using a modular synthesizer."

"I have connected the modules of my synthesizers during twenty years. I'm bored with this kind of programmation. I wanted to create a music synthesizer as powerfull as a modular system, but with no jack and no slider.

It is easy to use Dazibao : first create some "sound colors" thanks to an analogy between colors and sound. The hue modifies the wavefrom, the saturation and brightness control the filters and the level of the noise generator. Even more, this color includes detune, vibrato and space effects. You just need then to associate these colors in a patch to create rich or complex evolutions of the sound."
