Introducing ADDAC Voltage Controlled Stompboxes

via Addac Sys on Facebook

"These utility “Stompboxes” were developed thinking in guitar pedal setups and engineered to allow flexibility and new ways to interconnect them while preserving all of the input tone. We guarantee no tone difference when plugging instruments through them.

Vactrol based VCA at instrument level allows CV control over the audio signal of any of your pedals without the need to change from line to synth levels.

Due to the linear behaviour of our VCA, it allows to turn most expression pedals into one the best volume pedals you’ll ever experience. When using expression pedals they will offer smoother and better control of volume. This also means you won’t have the typical drastic boost at the end of the pedal.

Note these take optical disks while the Mellotron used tape. You can see a pic of them below. You can also get new ones from optigan.com

"Vako Orchestron
Prototype Version

According to our information, only 4 or 5 of these prototypes were made
and perhaps this is the only one left in the world, that actually works.

This unit is well preserved, first of all because it has been kept
securely in its factory flight case.

We have done some necessary repairs by a professional service center,
well acquainted with Optigan and Mellotron.

This includes:
- New contacts for all keys
- Restoration of motor
- Replacement of belts
- Restoration of wood casing
- Other respectful compensations to the fragile prototype construction

The unit is being sold by the original owner, who is a professional musician, artist and composer.

2 original disks (labeled "TEST DISC", hence the prototype status) is included."

Published on Jan 28, 2014 Expert Sleepers·105 videos

"This demo shows the combination of Expert Sleepers ES-40, ESX-8CV and ESX-8GT modules working as a four voice MIDI/CV converter.

Unlike a four voice converter working off a physical MIDI connection, in this system the four voices can be exactly in time if required.

Four Arturia Microbrutes are controlled via their CV/gate inputs.
