DIY Synthesizer - Experimenting with Effects

Published on Aug 17, 2016 Trance Zero Space

"This is a rough demonstration of a home-made synthesizer named the 'ESL i-Lander.' The synth is a combination of purposely short-circuited electronics from a toy keyboard and parts from a MIDI keyboard that utilize iPad effects synthesis. iPad programs used are Audiobus, Loopy (to create loops from the audio of the ESL i-Lander), Turnado by Sugar Bytes (MIDI effects synthesis), and Cubasis (the DAW recording all audio)."

"Making sounds with a home-made synthesizer that is a combination of purposely short-circuited electronics from a toy keyboard and parts from a MIDI keyboard that utilize iPad effects applied to the short-circuited sounds. Toggle switches, a big button, and a small reset button were applied to the new, short-circuit sounds of the toy keyboard electronics."

Tiptop Audio Z DSP with Custom Black Panel

via this auction

"This Z-DSP is fully functional and in Mint condition. Included are the Dragon Fly Delay and Halls of Valhalla Cartridges.
Fitted with a custom black panel. Original panel is included as well.

The Z-DSP is an open-source, cartridge-based, digital sound processing and generating platform for your modular synthesizer. The Z-DSP has a stereo DSP processor with 24-bit sampling, 15khz of bandwidth, smooth voltage controlled parameters, and has the ability to be programmed - all in a Eurorack format. While the Z-DSP cannot compete with the processing power found on personal computers, it does provide direct control of the DSP hardware and has a unique set of features aimed at the manipulation of digital effects. With the Z-DSP, digital audio can be bent, stretched, deformed, and distorted by interacting with your modules; something personal computers just can't do.

The Z-DSP interface includes VC digital parameters, VC Mix/Dry, manual and sequential program switching, and a pair of VC feedback loop paths with exposed patch points that let you insert the rest of your modular into the DSP process. The Z-DSP lets you go far beyond ordinary processing, breaking the rules and allowing you to patch right into the heart of the DSP chip through the clock input, allowing for some digital madness and creative sound design.

Width: 28HP
Depth: 59mm
Consumption: 130 mA +12V / 36 mA -12V"

Touchplate Keyboard demo 2

Published on Aug 17, 2016 Randy Piscione

Almost had Close Encounters going there.

"Bit of improv on some Eurorack stuff. The Verbos Touchplate keyboard is tricky to play like a piano player but fun to play as a sort of percussion thing. The first bit of noodling uses the top squares to play the Phenol and then the bass, which is a single Befaco Even VCO sine running into an Abstract Data Reactive Shaper. 3 different LFOs modulate the three CV inputs of the Reactive Shaper. Gives a nice growl to a single sine. There is no filter. A Ladik EG, Ladik VCA and Bastl ABC finish things off. After showing the individual sounds, the Anushri drums are brought in."

"Breaking in the new case with the MPC 5000 into Ladik MIDI to gate.

Kick: Basimilus Iteritas
Hats: Erico Pico VCO into Streams
Snare: Ataraxic Translatron into Streams
Voice1: Dixie II into Polaris and then Clouds.
Voice2: Dixie II FM'd by Braids into 4MS DLD channel 1
Voice3: Dixie II into WMD/SSF MMF into 4MS DLD channel 2
Bass: Sinc Iter with morph modulated by URA.

Gates from MPC 5000 create rhythmic pattern, and are fed into Ornaments and Crimes where pitch CV is generated.

Envelopes from Quadra."

New Moog Minimoog Model D Demonstration

Published on Aug 17, 2016 Synth City

"Moog was able to arrange a a little time with a new Minimoog Model D, and Synth City product specialist Wesley is excited to discuss the extended modulation capabilities. Enjoy some more unusual approaches to using the Minimoog in this video demonstration."

"This is how I use my Analog Four in Ableton Live, when I just want to use it as a synth module.

Esto es como uso mi Analog Four en Ableton Live, cuando quiero emplearlo como modulo de sonidos puramente.
