DX-7 Super Max

Via Florian on Digital Hell. If anyone knows of a website dedicated to the DX-7 Super Max,post it in the comments and I'll update the post.

"I built in SUPER MAX yesterday evening and I am completely overwhelmed. This is the second most incredible rework of a synthesizer OS after the Europe expansion for the JP6. I definitely recommend it.

Features in short:
- 8 Banks of Memory
- Arpeggiator with very, very good algorithm; provides
32 Arpeggio memories, but these might be not enough for
all usable combinations (not to speak from possible
combinations)
- 3 additional Layer voices with individual tanspose.
- keysplit
- MIDI-echo with transpose
- microtonal tuning
Best of all is: you can send the MIDI-echoes and the Arpeggiator notes separately to the MIDI-Out!

I definitely recommend this. And also the seller bigmanilow is a very reliable person.

Thanks to Lorne for this great hint.

Best regards, Florian"

Sequential Circuits 'The Patch' for download

via Stephen Jones on AH:

"I asked Dave Smith and John Bowen about 'The Patch' and it seems that only 3 or 4 issues were published between 1981 and 1982. I have volume 02 issue 01 (February 1982). Its got some really great information, patches and advertisements. This issue has a cool picture of a plexiglas Pro-One too.

You can download it here.

Does anyone have the other issues of 'The Patch'? (I'll stop asking now)"

Update via the comments:
"Did anyone see the "Digital Interface for the Pro-One" article in there? That is like the holy grain for Pro-One DIYers. I don't think anyone has documented how to modify the Pro-One for this and here it is from the source."

Thomas Henry Strikes Again

via Scott Stites on this electro-music thread. Sample at the post (it sounds gooood).

"From way up north, Mankato way, land of a thousand lakes and even more synth designs, comes a new VCO design from Thomas Henry. Grab your spare 3080 and put it in a safe place.....

Thomas calls it a workhorse VCO - Expo FM, Lin FM, triangle, PWM and one hell of a pure sine wave. On top of that, in typical Thomas Henry fashion, it is an elegantly simple design - I was amazed at how quickly I breadboarded it. But, don't let the simplicity fool you - this thing has got an *amazingly* accurate 9 octave range and it plays beautifully. I love this little VCO already. Page to come, schematics, PCB layout, the works.

Here's a quick sample of it - no big musical event, just the VCO piped through the Mankato filter I've had on breadboard since the summer of 2004. I modulate it here and there with an LFO, and the PW is modulated by another LFO (the wave heard is the PWM wave). And, of course, I use my patented Too Much Reverb(R) effect. Of course, it's the Thomas Henry keyboard controlling it.

Remember, this is with no tempco with a patch held together with alligator clips. I spent about three minutes tuning the VCO (it tuned easier than any VCO I've ever dealt with, don't know why - of course, I haven't tuned it to the gnat's ass yet - I'm having too much fun Very Happy ).

Coming soon to an Internet Near You.

Scott"
