Dan McPharlin Inspired Circuit Bent Yamaha PSS-30 Dream Machine

Videos here and here.

Those of you that have been coming to this site over the years might remember Dan McPharlin's miniature synth art. According to noystoise this was commissioned to look like one of his creations and it sure does.

"Wow. this is definitely the longest project i have worked on to date. i began this commission shortly after the "Hartman Mod Job" last february. i was contacted by a guy who was interested in having me build a synthesizer for him that looked like one of Dan McPharlin's miniatures. it sounded like fun and there were some new applications that i was anxious to try out so i agreed. the initial idea was to build a mini synthesizer with a detachable keyboard and as many controls and effects as i could fit. i decided to be courageous and model the toy synth on the notoriously stubborn yamaha pss-30."

You'll find full details on noystoise here.

Absolute Extremes MCBC-01 Moog Circuit Bending Challenge 2012 Video

Video of the MCBC-01 featured in this post.

"Josh Felice and I (Chris Blarsky) are proud to enter out MCBC-01 into the Moog Circuit Bending Challenge. We spent a considerable amount of time working out the best bends available from the Akai S01 and believe this to be the best of the best as far as bent samplers. We are not alone in this opinion as www.Circuitbenders.co.uk were the first to attempt bending this particular model sampler and have found it to be superior in flexibility and reliability. We have built upon their ideas and tried to push the limit even further. Along with the ability to midi trigger from an iPad or QuNeo, we have added a couple of square clocks that feed directly into the ram causing all sorts of mayhem. I enjoyed designing this piece in hardwood. I can see after working with wood why Bob Moog liked to build with it. It feels natural and strong. I will work in wood more now that I have had a chance to do so. I have more information available about this unique piece of kit on my audio page located here:

Korg Radias - Two Ways To Live

Published on Sep 21, 2012 by MrRidgebackman

"Hi ,

This is a piece performed on the Korg Radias, using both Step Sequencers and played live. I took one of the presets and played around with the settings and the sounds.

Recorded live into Logic Pro 9 and then added the drums from Logic. Only processing used is Compression, no other effects used.

Hope you enjoy

Cheers Andy

Update: Some info on the gear and another video below.

"The system on the left that I'm playing is my DIY CGS Serge. Both sounds come from it, The kick drum comes from the 909. The bass line is CGS ENS-76 VCO being sequenced via a midi to CV converter. The looping 'acid' sound is a Serge VCS sequenced by the Baby10 step sequencer in a Cigar box. The Paia 4700 system below the 909 I'm not using in this song."

"LELL were the first normal stompboxes made in Russia. They had normal guitar jacks and even a 9-volt socket - same format as BOSS pedals. The footswitch pad reveals a battery cavity underneath.
The company still exists! It's website for some unknown reason claims the company was established in 1992. But look at the pictures - we've got a proof it was active in the 80's. The headquaters is located in Moscow, on the Lower Krasnoselskaja street. "Digital Delay" in Russian goes like "Cifrovaja Zaderjka", and while in Russian "CZ" makes sence, it was lost when it was transferred to another language. In fact, there was no chance to convert it into "DD" (digital delay) since the DD pedal already exists - it's 'Drive/Distortion'."
