(click through for the larger pics - see this post for why)

"On a basic level this machine is a theremin style sound control and effects unit, but it is so much more than that. You can choose from fifty tripped-out, mind-bending effects and sounds designed to modify any audio signal, from CDs and vinyl to real-time live performances. You simply dial in the number of the effect you want using the large program select button, press it to confirm and off you go.

If you like a particulat effect you have just created, pressing the large program button once again will 'hold' that effect. Just a fantastic piece of kit! You can also attach it to a standard microphone stand.

The definitive musical instrument for this wild, wired and whacked-out world we call home. But you don't even have to touch it to play it. No strings. No keys. No pedals. Just move your hands - or any other body part - through the invisible, 3D infrared sphere. Twist the twangiest country tune into non-stop trip hop. Transform ad jingles into trance.

Or warp the edgiest drum and bass tracks straight into the twilight zone. And back again, changing the sound with the slightest twitch of your hand. Connect the airFX to any line-level sound source and speaker system and you’re ready to go. Move you hand, or any other body part through the 3D sphere to turn your tunes inside out.

Click here to hear the effects ....

TRANSCENDENT 2000 Vintage Monophonic Synthesizer By Powertran

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated. via this auction
(click through for the larger pics - see this post for why)

"You probably already know what this synth is all about, but for those that don't here's a little background. Designed by Tim Orr in the early 80's (formally EMS). The Synthesizer was sold ready made or in kit form. Buying the kit meant that you got the synth for £100 less than the ready made price. This made the synth desirable for musicians on a budget wanting access to a synthesizer and had a few weeks spare to put the thing together. Most of the kits are badly put together with loose keyboards and casework. Tim Orr was also responsible for the transcendent poly synth also available as a kit. This kit was very complex and finished units are hens teeth!. Late 80's saw the demise of powertran and all of it's kits but the legacy lives on. The synth we have here has had a full service with everything functioning as it should. Keys are clean, everything is tight and built well. All analogue electronic single circuitboard design. This synth has a great sounding filter with real warmth, similar to the ladder designs used in the moogs. The filter has sweep controls with band pass and low pass filtering. A VCF Envelope control with single shot and hold facility. The filter has a characteristic all of it's own!. The synthesizer is capable of some amazing squelchy bass type sounds and effects. I could probably go on all day describing the facilities so i think it best to google 'transcendent 2000' to get a full run down of it's features. I will include the original schematic on CDROM, it's not a great copy but still readable. One control knob has a scratch on it (pictured), The octave switch does not have the tactile ident like all the other but is still fully working."

Blogger Issue with Large Pics

Just a heads up, but it looks like Blogger is having a problem displaying the larger version of pics when you click on them. I reported the problem last night here and they are looking into it. Until it is fixed you'll need to click through to the source link in posts for the larger pics. The show must go on, otherwise I get backlogged, so posts will continue to go up. It appears to have started sometime after 7:50 PM PST yesterday, as this post was still good. I first noticed it with Richard Devine's Eila post.

BTW, if you are on Blogger you might be seeing the problem with newer posts as well.

Update: Blogger is still working on fix (status here) but there is a temporary work around. It works in Compose mode in the new Blogger Interface. I still use the old editing interface in HTML mode because I find it much more efficient, but there you have it. I'm still hoping the old interface sticks around.

Homebrew step sequencer, "Stepper Acid"

via Zoë

"My partner (Nina, who took this picture last year: http://m.matrixsynth.com/2011/12/idow-matrixsynth-modular-pic-of-week_26.html ) and myself have started work on building an acidline step sequencer together. It's in the early prototype stages at the moment, so there's no interface, just a preset pattern, but it's already starting to sound pretty good hooked up to our Doepfer! The project is open source, for both hardware and software, so anybody can see how it works and cannibalise it into their own open source projects.
