"A very short musique concrete piece made entirely from sounds from the Chimera bC8 micro synth/sequencer. Only a little virtual spring reverb added accompanied by a slideshow of photos of the bC8. enjoy!
YouTube via 4mspedals "The Shuffling Clock Multiplier from 4ms is the speedy cousin of the Rotating Clock Divider. The SCM has inputs for CV Rotate and CV Shuffle, which are connected in this video to the X and Y outputs of a joystick controller. In normal mode, the SCM outputs 8 clock signals that are exactly 1-8 times faster than the clock input (which is coming from a tap tempo module in this video).
The CV Shuffle drops beats out, dropping more pulses as more CV is applied. So at 0V there are no beats dropped, e.g. on the x8 jack there's a steady 1/8 note pulse. At 1V some notes drop out, e.g. we may get three 1/8 notes followed by two rests and then three more 1/8 notes, and this pattern repeats each measure. At maximum CV input we get only the down beat (first note of the measure)
The CV Rotate works like it does on the RCD (applying a CV routes the clock outputs to different jacks).
The sounds are created by an Andromeda mk 2 snare module (www.ericarcher.net), an EH Space Drum, and two little bass drum modules (by Jeannot Q) More to come!!"
"Here is the first tier without the wing cabinets right after I set it up. Below it are 3 new Tom Oberheim SEMs and I am using a CS-30 (modified) below that all four being triggered from the MMM Utility 1 module. The wings are basically the original production 1 case modified for external power. Once the MMM sequencer is in production I plan to put the 3 I have on order in the left wing cabinet."

YouTube via Effectology "Electro-Harmonix Effectology, Vol.12 The Uilleann Pipes By Bill Ruppert Welcome to Electro-Harmonix's "Effectology" series, in which we create a remarkable collection of impossible sounds using just a regular guitar and EHX effect pedals! No keyboards, samplers or midi pickups were used.
In this episode of Effectology I explore how to produce sounds like the haunting Irish Uilleann Pipes, Harmonic Drones and Giant Field Drums, and Backing Strings all using just a guitar and effect pedals. Uilleann Pipes are an early form of Bagpipes that date back over 300 years. They are one of the most expressive and beautiful instruments heard in Irish music. Now guitar players can capture some of that magic.
