"What is myVolts Crazy Chain?
Did you ever want to power a number of synths and pedals, but find that your existing daisy chain cable just didn't cut it? Wrong size connectors, wrong size polarity, unused connectors, unsuitable cable lengths can all be a hassle you don't need when you just want to make music.
Crazy Chain is a flexible, mix and match cable solution to let you power your gear just the way you want to.
Choose tip: You choose which DC power tip size each Crazy Chain connector has, so you can plug, for example, a Korg Volca (1.7mm inner diameter / 4.7mm outer diameter) in the same chain as a Boss guitar pedal (2.1mm inner diameter / 5.5mm outer diameter). Mix and match tips to suit exactly your devices.
Change polarity: You can change polarity from positive to negative as you go along the chain, you can even change it back! Polarity change is identified by an orange DC input, so whenever power passes through this connection, it will change polarity. Make sure to check your instrument specification to ensure it receives the correct polarity.
Chain devices: Crazy Chain lets you power only the devices you want to power, whether that's 3 devices or 12 devices. This means no more looking for extra connectors to suit your specific setup, and no more hanging dog-leg connectors adding noise into your audio.
The right lengths: Choose from 3 different cable lengths to suit your setups."
"We present a demo of Noisemusick by Fluxama, one of our favorite iPad music apps. It generates a variety of chaotic sounds via four touchplate controls along with two knobs for modifying the sound. It is based on an earlier hardware kit of the same name.
'The Noisemusick app is a collection of THREE controllable synthesizers that generate interesting chaotic sounds. Have fun creating sonic bedlam, exploring weird soundscapes, or use it to GREAT EFFECT in your live performances and recordings. It's squonky electric FUN for the whole family!'
"Just passing through with a small patch demonstration to again, give you a idea of what this prototype synthesizer is capable of.
Still I haven't properly scratched the surface.
I'm not a great keyboard player by a long shot, but had a go at certain points during the recording."
"Thank you for watching! The music in this video is from our new album "Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday," out NOW! Learn more here: https://thegalaxyelectric.lpages.co/t...
This is a super 8mm app account of our day at the Storm King Art Center Sculpture Park in New York’s Hudson Valley.
This video features 3 songs that were recorded in two separate improvisation sessions using the Buchla Music Easel, Korg Delta and various analog effects.
This sequence of 3 songs - Time Slipping, Transmission Fini, and Reality in Theory are featured on our newest full length album - Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday.
Thanks for taking the opportunity to enjoy our day at the Storm King Art Center with us. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Take Care - TGE"
Claravox Centennial | “Clair de Lune” Performed by Grégoire Blanc & Orane Donnadieu

"This year marks the 100th anniversary of the theremin’s invention. To celebrate the instrument that sparked a century of electronic music innovation, we present to you a new limited-edition Moog theremin: Claravox Centennial.
Set among the baroque architecture and expansive gardens of Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, French musician Grégoire Blanc channels theremin marvel Clara Rockmore in a stunning Claravox Centennial performance of Claude Debussy’s “Clair de Lune” alongside pianist Orane Donnadieu. This tribute to the timeless classical duets of Rockmore and her sister, pianist Nadia Reisenberg, captures the beauty of the theremin’s distinct tone and personality—characteristics that will continue to captivate audiences into the next century."
Electric Storm: 100 Years of Theremin
Moog Music Inc Moog Music Inc
"Composer Dorit Chrysler and filmmaker Marie Losier bring the new Moog Claravox
Centennial on a journey where no theremin has gone before: 30+ stories
underground.
“It was a uniquely inspiring location,” Chrysler says of
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, which is home to the
largest machine in the world: the Large Hadron Collider. “An international
cathedral of science following no commercial purpose but pure creative
experimenting on a scale so grand that I had never witnessed before. It
immediately inspired the idea to set a film there…putting this location to sound
and to celebrate the beginnings of electric music, a colossal moment of
invention…the centennial of the theremin.”
“Electric Storm”
translates the feel of metal, chaos, laboratories, and the sound of thousands of
voltages used to help cool the colliders, a tiny industrial revolution within
the factory, capturing conceiving the moment of an idea, finally ending in one
pure note of the Claravox Centennial theremin."
"A Celebration of the Theremin's Past, Present, and Future.
Named after the original theremin virtuosa, Clara Rockmore, Claravox Centennial features the highest quality control and sound available in a theremin for deep artistic exploration. Offering both traditional 100% analog theremin operation and expanded modern performance, as well as an onboard analog delay, preset storage, and more, Claravox Centennial is an extraordinary instrument for creative expression.
Claravox Centennial is designed in celebration of the 100-year anniversary of the invention of the theremin by Leon Theremin, and is only available for a limited time.
"The most versatile Moog Theremin in history.
Switchable Traditional and Modern performance modes select between classic heterodyne oscillators (for a genuine analog theremin experience) and multimode DSP oscillators (sine, triangle, saw, wavetable) with assignable scales, quantization, octave ranges, and response curves. An analog wave-shaping circuit (derived from the legendary Etherwave Pro) imbues ethereal sonic character and empowers rich sound sculpting possibilities, and the on-board analog BBD delay creates a wash of spiraling echoes and resounding warmth."
"The best feeling instrument that you’ll play without touching
An instrument designed with exceptional playability to satisfy the most skillful thereminist, Claravox Centennial invites access to multiple levels of calibration and control settings to create a custom fit between this unique instrument and each unique player. Front-panel Pitch and Volume knobs give quick and immediate control for dialing in to new playing environments, side-entry calibration ports create easy access for fine tune adjustments, and dedicated Response knobs allow for the creation of recallable custom antenna curves in Modern mode."
"Here is a track with the extremely rare Voyetra Eight from Octave Plateau Electronics (1983). All sounds are coming from the Voyetra (including percussion). Even more rare is that the Voyetra is using a mix of SSM and CEM chip. SSM2044 for filter and CEM3340 for VCOs. Add the extended modulation features and you have a lovechild of Prophet 5 Rev2 and the Matrix-12!
Composed and produced by www.firechild.se"
"Built by the fabulous Paula Maddox of Dove Audio and Modal synth fame.
Great little synth, 2 Oscillators that have standard waves and also some PPG style ones, plus a sub Oscillator. 2 envelopes and a nice LFO.
The VCF and VCA is the Korg 2069 chip used in the DW range and also Paulas new MU VCF.
There were not many of these built but this is just sat feeling unloved due to lack of time.
There is no PSU or manual, however there is a full tutorial online. I lost the PSU in a house move a year ago and have not replaced so can not say it is working as I can not turn on, however it was fine before my move."
