"Here is a quick demo of the fabulous Penrose Quantizer from Sonic Potions.
CV is fed from the Dinsync Modseq. Replicator CV buffer distributes the clocks and resets. Hearn Morley HMVCO1a into HM2040 filter into Manhattan Audio VCA.

""cartesian sequencer," "geometric sequencer," "planular sequencer," "axis sequencer," and finally, in buchla-speak, "non-linear sequential tuned voltage map." "rené," for the man rené descartes. the primary goal of this sequencer is to have a maximum amount of artist controlled musical variation, with a minimum amount of data input. there are no menus, all editing is done real-time, and thus, the programming of rené becomes a key performance element.

rené has up to 4 clock inputs and 2 cv inputs which may be used simultaneously to achieve complex, musical patterns output in the form of quantized voltages, non-quantized voltages and two gate/ pulse streams.

the faceplate for the rené is a printed circuit board. it is black, with white and gold graphics"

"The BLD has all components and functions necessary for generating bass lead and drum sounds with focus on bass drum sounds. It can be trigged by a push button or by an external signal (any shape). The pitch, cutoff frequency, transient times and amplitude are also voltage controllable by external signals. The BLD contain main sound generator (OSCILLATOR) and noise generator and modifiers such as low pass filter, amplifier and two transient (contour) generators."

FOLKTEK TIME MACHINE

"Only 15 of these have ever been made. A small number of these remain and there are no plans to make more.

This time machine created by Arius Blaze is a small series of identical works featuring patchable keys via magnetic patchbay (folktek original).

Capable of everything the other time machines are but quite a bit more refined and with added connection possibilities so for the time being, sounds and videos will reference older models. More will be added when possible. For more reference, read up on the other models on the time portion of the site

The Time Machine is an "on the fly" remix machine. 8 patchable keys determine timing change ups and odd granular effects/ring modulation of either a sampled sound (from extremely tight to up to about 5-8 seconds (becoming more lofi after a few seconds) or a direct incoming signal. Time is selectable between 3 ranges to allow for more range on the timing knob.

After a sample is captured, bits and pieces of the incoming signal can be added to or replace parts of the original. With the "add" jack, external CV can add/replace sound to/from the loop.

As a delay it's exceptionally Dub heavy with feedback ranging from singular to swelling, infinite repeat..

This is a digital piece with a very warm sound and very analog characteristics. A sample can be slowed to grumbles or sped up a great deal. The patches are magnetic - a thing we at folktek came up with so there is no need for plugging - you simply set your patch plug on whatever point you like. Patches are assigned to each key and pressing more than one key at a time creates a matrix affect allowing for more complicated effects and resampling. With the use of a magnet, a key can be depressed to act as a switch. The result is high and simple playability with thousands of possibilities.

Connections on the back allow the time machine to act as a master clock - with three 1/8" clock outputs and a tap tempo out. Using the tap tempo out and connection to a midi footswitch controller makes for an easy and inexpensive method of using the time machine as the master clock over midi as well.

CV input controls global pitch so among other possibilities, you can capture tight samples as synthesis from any source and play them with a sequencer or keyboard.

Custom Oak box, custom switches and keys and custom patchbays with cloth covered cables. The time machine has controls for mix, feedback, time one and two, level controls, sample on, delay on, 1/4" input, 1/4" output, and runs on a standard 9v-12v power supply.

I can only provide US and EU power supplies (EU only provided upon request), but if that doesn't suit you, one will be very easy to find. 9v +tip, 2.1mm, 1000ma. A simple voltage converter will work as well."

Synthrotek DS-M - Analog Drum Synth Module Now Available


via Synthrotek

You'll find previous posts including video here.

"The DS-M is a full featured drum synth that can emulate virtually any drum sound!

The DS-M (Drum Synth Module) is a complex, modifiable, 100% analog drum synth loosely based on the Coron DS-8 and neatly packaged into an 8hp module.

Changes to the original DS-8 include:
VCA-like trigger input (more voltage = louder output)
Trimmer-adjustable attack
LED trigger indicator
1v/o tracking (C0-C4)
Triangle core oscillator
Additional noise color switch setting (3 settings instead of 2)
More distinct noise timbres
Louder, improved noise circuit
Really LOW bass frequencies
Total range ~4Hz to 2.6kHz
In addition to being a highly versatile analog drum synth, this unit is also a fully functional monophonic synth that has these features:
1v/o tracking (C0-C4)
Adjustable attack and decay envelope over the VCA
Built-in LFO circuit
Sweep circuit
Noise circuit
Plug your control voltage and gate directly out of your midi-to-CV converter or connect your QuNexus keyboard, Arturia keyboard, or sequencer, and you're ready to make some music!

Note: Complete units come pre-calibrated (according to the Synthrotek Deluxe Power Supply System). If you are building a kit or have a different power supply system, you will need to calibrate the 1v/o tracking using the DS-M calibration guide."

Synthrotek Cosmic Echo Squared delay fx pedal demo video stompbox


Published on Feb 3, 2015 synthrotek

Watch your audio levels, some screeching feedback around 1:49 and possibly later.

"The Cosmic Echo Squared is the Big Sister of the Cosmic Echo, now with momentary foot switches and expression pedal input!

Features:

- Dark, rich sounds with the analog vibe of a tape echo.

- Contains PT2399 IC, a bucket brigade style emulation. This IC has 16-bit sampling for 30-300 milliseconds. After that, the sample rate goes down in relation to the delay length. This results in artifacts and noise being introduced into the audio for weird, cosmic, psychedelic sounds. Use it like a typical echo or

- Delay length: 30ms-1,250ms.

- 4 knobs: Feedback, Mix, rate and Blast Amount. The Mix is a Wet only control that attenuates the amount of delayed signal in the signal chain. The Feedback controls the number of repeats in an organic-sounding way.

- Warp button. Momentary pushbutton switch that gives a bright, "small" speaker tone.

- Blast button. Momentary pushbutton switch that introduces feedback into the circuit momentarily. Great for adding rhythmic feedback and other strange sounds. The Blast amount can be adjusted by external pot!

- Pedal has a slight volume drop.

- Great for shoegaze, surf rock, ambient and experimental sounds.

- Takes a 9V battery or 9V center negative 2.1-2.5mm barrel Power Adapter (not included).

- Handmade in Portland, Oregon."
