"Gentle noisedrone. Exploring some of the possibilities of a more compact system for live performances. The skiff system is mostly composed of Intellijel modules, paired with Tinysizer and a Bugbrand Boardweevil. Live, direct recording, warts and all."

"Turned out way better than i imagined it would.. Awesome glitched percussion machine. The smaller dd's aren't as unruly when glitched as the bigger dd11 and 12's and so control of them is a bit easier. Once mastered and whipped into form with the filter this is the result....

NIN year zero????"

LE STRUM - MIDI Strummed Chord Controller Kit


Published on Jun 16, 2013

"If you could breed an Omnichord with a Stylophone you might end up with some of these babies.... [or the Oberheim Strummer]

Use combinations of the buttons to select a chord type (maj, min, 7, maj7, min7, dim, aug) and root note. The chord is then mapped across the pads, which you play with a wired stylus, sending output by MIDI.

This is an old idea of mine that I've now turned into an open hardware kit, so anyone can make one. The updated firmware has some new goodies like guitar open chord fingerings, chord variations (sus4, add6, add9), two channel lead + chord drone and control over velocity.

Kit is available for purchase on Tindie at https://www.tindie.com/products/hotch... and the firmware/hardware source code is on GitHub at https://github.com/hotchk155/Voici-Le..."

"Up for sale is EXTREMELY RARE Soviet vintage polyphonic digital preset synthesizer
"FORMANTA P-432". It is a compact polyphonic digital synth produced by Katchkanar radio equipment factory "Formanta", famous for such well-known synthesizers as Polivoks, Manual, Maestro etc.
Was designed for both solo and ensemble performance. It has a 3-octave keyboard, 32 timbres and 4-voice polyphony. UNISON and CHORUS effects are available. Sound modulation parameters: VIBRATO (with variable frequency and depth), tune adjustment and a joystick for controlling modulation and pitch in the real-time mode. A foot pedal is provided for switching on/off SUSTAIN and VIBRATO parameters (included).

The synthesizer has a two-digit display for representing a preset number and some other system parameters. In Formanta P-432, a standard MIDI protocol is used, making it possible to select any one of the 16 MIDI channels and to control the MIDI program change. On the rear panel, the following connectors are situated: MIDI IN/OUT/TRANSIT(THRU), LlNE OUT and SUSTAIN/VIBRATO PEDAL INPUT (standard 1/4TRS "jacks").

The preset table timbres vary from different types of pianos, organs, harmonicas up to different kinds of "soviet-type" synths. Presets #02,11,14,15,16,24,34,37 produce sonic FX (not sure whether it is a factory setting or some kind of bug). In general synth is fully functional, is in MINT cosmetic condition & comes in full factory set: Synth, Case, Pedal, Connection cables.

The mains power of the unit is 220 volts. For 110/127v countries I`ll include voltage converter.

The unit is EXTREMELY RARE & is hard to find by all means even in former USSR countries..."

Roland TR606 with Individual Outputs Mod

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This one was professionally modded for individual outputs for each sound set (BD, SD, LT/HT, CY, OH/CH) which are very useful for recording each sound separately along with running each through effect processes. Also there are trigger out for the BD and AC, which are nice for interacting with other synths or eurorack style gear. These mods are all 1/8 inch, but included are a set of 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch cables so you can easily convert the 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch if needed. The battery compartment is clean. All the step triggers and outputs work perfectly, and the knobs are smooth and scratch free. This machine was also serviced when it got the mods done, including a full cleaning so it is good to go."
