Atomic Shadow's Lab

Some gear spotting in Atomic Shadow's new lab.

I spy a MATRIXSYNTH magnet and some new Synthesizers.com modules along with the vintage oscillators and some modern gear. Cool retro green cabinet. You can find a nice black and white pic of the previous studio in the IDOW & MATRIXSYNTH Modular Pic of the Week #26 contest.

"You got your hands on a Nord Modular G2? Awesome, we're all really excited about it. If you got it from Europe or from some who got it from Europe, you're likely going to cry your eyes out wondering why it sounds terrible when you first try to use it. Never fear, you're just one tiny fuse and flick of a switch away from realizing all your most intimate modular synth-dork dreams. Just sit back and get your learn on for a minute."


Nord G2 Modular Engine by Clavia with Original Box SN ME10882 via this auction

"gently used Nord G2 Modular Engine. It's set up to operate on US/Japan voltages but can easily be switched back to UK voltage. Both plugs are included. Also included are the original USB cable, software disc, box, and rack ears. The box is a bit dinged up but still in good condition considering it's age."

Human Body Analog Opto Theremin Sci Fi Effect Synth

via this auction
See the seller's other items for more.

Unfortunately no video for this one.

Via the listing/seller:
"Please have a look at another of my custom made Opto Cell theremins.

Ive carefully hand built this theremin circuit into a human anatomy case.

Its very sturdy and simply and ready for you to use on stage or in the studio.

This fantastic sci-fi effects generator is very well built to last years.

THere is no sound emitted until you drop a shadow, or light onto the opto cell so all you have to do is simply cast varying shadows on the opto lens for some great theremin work.

The heart lights up when you turn it on, i have several cards you insert in the back that light up other organs.

It also features a momentary on button that allows you to produce some very cool intermittent sound patterns.

Very easy to control and offers some amazing synth tone patterns, runs on (2) "AA" batteries.

Ive added these controls to the handbuilt circuit:

Lunetta Guitar Cypher Motor Driver Module CV Test

YouTube Published on Jun 12, 2012 by NakagawaGakki

with EMS Synthi

"Here I am testing a R/2R Ladder DAC to convert the 8 Digital Gates from the Cypher Sequencer in to 2x 4bit controlled voltages to be used for my other outboard gear.
I had a bunch of 1/4W 100k resistors hanging around so following this schematic:
http://www.ikalogic.com/8-bit-digital-to-analog-converter-dac/
I put 2resistors in series where its written (2R) and just one resistor where its written (R)... It works!
Power supply voltage is 5.7VDC ATM so the summed voltage out of the DAC is just under 5V. Am running the Lunetta Guitar on 9VDC so the summed DAC output will be almost 7V so may need some attenuation when using with outboard gear."

WiFi MIDI Device for iOS

Midi WiFi wireless Air-to-Midi Controller for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad

YouTube Uploaded by hmbtec on Apr 4, 2011

Before you get too excited, from what I can tell, this is not a CoreMIDI device and will not work with other apps. An alternative that handles OSC over wifi and supports OSC to MIDI is Jabrudian Industries' The Missing Link which does work with certain apps like MIDITouch and TB MIDI Stuff.

"HMB-TEC® Midi WiFi wireless Air to Midi Controller

Sensational Midi solution for your iPhone ™, iPod touch ™ and the iPad ™!

Now you can operate and control your MIDI devices with an iPhone over WiFi wireless connection over the air.

Important Notice!
To operate this app you need the HMB | TEC WiFi-to-Midi Controller "Air2Midi ", available from www.hmb-tec.de online web store. Guitarists, we recommend the additional purchase of a Sidekick™ Guitar holder. This allows you to mount your iPhone or iPod Touch just to the guitar neck and then operate the app with just one hand. You can then play directly from the guitar from a lick on the midi-piano and operate from any position your MIDI-enabled guitar amps and effects.

This app version is the basic version with a 2-manual piano keyboard and a virtual foot switch with a switch bank and a rocker pedal. The Midi channel assignment is fixed to channel 1 and the Midi-codes are given. Therefore you don't need to do any configuration work within the App. For even the following upgrades a drum pad and an 8-channel mixer is planned. The operation is accomplished thanks to the touchscreen and the practical operating structure, extremely comfortable and fast. Ideal for life performances and in the music studio.

The connection between the iPhone and HMB|TEC Midi-2-WiFi-Air Controller Air2Midi " is wirelessly via Adhoc WiFi connection. Thus there is a point-to-point connection and you do not need a network and no access point. This connection is independent and self-sufficient and you have the whole range and performance for your application. The Air2Midi controller then connects as usual with your MIDI equipment.

For questions about this app, and other innovative solutions please send us an email to or visit our Web Store info@hmb-tec.de www.hmb-tec.de

IMPORTANT NOTES, DISCLAIMER
To run this app you need an additional hardware from HMB|TEC.

Have fun with this brilliant tool for musicians!

Yours HMB | TEC Team"

HMB Tec also offered a hardware DIY method of connecting the audio out of your iOS device to MIDI.

The CV Engine - New Modules in the Works from Division 6

via Division-6
"Introducing CV Engine, the new series of synthesizer modules from Division 6. At its heart is a MIDI-CV converter with 8 CV and 8 gate outputs, but that's probably the most boring thing it does. CV Engine units work together as a sort of modular module. 8 outputs not enough? Add an expansion module and get more without having to buy a whole new MIDI-CV module. Wish you had a transpose control for one of the outputs and a glide rate control for another? Pick up a pot module and tell it what you want the pots to do. CV Engine is very flexible and vastly configurable; get the hardware you need and set it up the way you want it to work.

This new series of products is currently in development.
Coming Kind-Of Soon"

Note the man behind Division 6 is Scott Rise. He knows a bit about MIDI and controllers. He is the man behind Midify, the MIDI interface for the Mattson Mini Modular, and he wrote all the software for the Mattson SQ816 Sequencer which will be available through Division 6 in eurorack format. He also knows how to microwave a hotdog with MIDI.
