In this video, Yonemoto plays handmade electric sound generator which is called "Machine No.3". "Machine No.3" is controlled(played) by 8 bit data which is generated by manually (not by micro controller).

Ribbon Controller is a kind of electric musicalinstruments. It can change a oscillator pitch smoothly, depending on the place which you press down. It was originally made as a kind of MOOG SYNTHESIZER's controller in late 60's. Onoue made this following its example. And playing style is self-taught.

"Yuchi Onoue plays the handmade Ribbon Controller - Electric musical instruments.
This video is Improvisation of Ribbon Controller at my home studio in 2005.

This handmade electric musical instrument can change a oscillator pitch smoothly, depending on the place which you press down. Ribbon Controller was originally made as a kind of MOOG SYNTHESIZER's controller in late 60's. I made this following its example. And playing style is self-taught.

This ribbon controller hooked up to simple analogue oscillator. The frequency of the oscillator changes in the value of electric resistance. Electrically, This ribbon controller is just an electric variable resistance. Not a midi box.

Moog Music Inc. factory tour

The Circle Machine

via Dave on the SDIY list: "I've been working on building a working model of Raymond Scott's circle machine. I thought it would be fun to build something with motors and lamps.

The only information I have is the picture on the Raymond Scott site. I used a Hammond vibrato scanner base as the base for the circle machine and mounted it on a plate with 16 potentiometers around it. I only have 8 lamps installed but I have it playing an octave scale (the output is quantized). I've got a thread going on Muff's in the Music Tech DIY but thought I'd post a link here as well. I'm not sure how practical it is but it's kind of fun to watch. It's also been fun to prototype.

I'm using incandescent lamps, rheostats (e.g. potentiometers) and a CdS sensor. All the control and processing electronics are done in a microprocessor (I know it's not original but those are the electronics *below* the panel). This will be a stand-alone module as it takes over 12 watts of power.

Details, photos, and videos are at http://modularsynthesis.com/modules/DJB-circle/circle.htm."

Tubular Bells Birthday Cake


via Phil

"For my girlfriend´s 18th birthday, I made a nice music-cake, because she is an organist. I am very proud of my success^^. I know, it is not really a "synthcake", but it is similar. So I thought that you are possilby interested. The music on the cake is the beginning of "tubular bells" by mike oldfield."

"Week 31 in my epic quest to write one new song each week for the year 2010.
Originally it wasn't going to be this week's song, but then I ate some bad Chinese take-out and wasn't really in the mood to write a "proper" song.
How ever it is a nice little song and reminds me of the first songs I uploaded to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5p8yb..."

Roland OP-8 Analog Synth CV/DCB Interface

via this auction
details via the seller:
"As you see in my photos I add a custom made DCB cable with it to hook it up with your synth.

I've used it with both Jupiter-8 and Juno-60.

I've used my Mono Analog synth/Seq such as MC-202 to drive the Jupiter-8 thrugh the OP-8 and it added a different color to the mix

The Jupiter-8 in Unison mode was mixed with the MC-202 sound and I've also played on a different channel my old Roland SH-101 and drove the Jupiter-8 live.

There are unlimited possibilites especially today with the Midi to CV like Kenton where you can use each channel to play different melody to drive the Jupiter or Juno.

The Roland OP-8 interface was designed to control Roland Analog Polyphonic Synthesizers that were equipped with a DCB (Digital Control Bus interface)

The OP-8 and a Synthesizer were connected together usin a DCB cable.

The transpose control on the OP-8 was able to transpose the synthesizer up or down by one octave..

When using the OP-8 with a Roland Juno 60 the connection and operation were extremely easy, as only the CV and gate input jacks, and the transpose switch were relevant"


Analogue Solutions SL16 Sequencer Module

via Noisebug on Ebay
"This is a 'module' intended to fit into a modular synthesiser case/PSU. SL16 needs a case and power supply to work. We can provide case AS0084 or AS1600, or you can fit into your own case.
*Rare option of sliders rather than rotary controls (an option some would prefer - gives a graphical representation of CV output)
*1x CV and 2 x Gate outputs.
*Binary input to control step number.
*SL16 comes with a powered case (shown in pic), power supply, and manual."

KORG MS20 and Philip Rees Little MCV

via this auction

"The first affordable modular synthesiser. Manufactured from 1978 to 1983 and still a classic. Its patch bay enables it to be physically re-modelled, similarly to the ARP 2600, but on a smaller (and affordable) scale. An external signal processor allows the connection of an external signal, which can be used to control the synthesised tone, or added to the signal path. It can produce incredible bass sounds (using the High Pass Filter as an oscillator)."

Robert Rich Discusses Modular Synths (Part 0)


YouTube via JohnLRice | August 15, 2010
Parts 1 and 2 here.
"This is part 0 of musician Robert Rich discussing the Synth Tech MOTM synth he is using on his current live tour and general thoughts on music composition and the use of modular synthesizers for live performances. Additional info about Robert can be found on his web site http://robertrich.com/

I took the opportunity to record video clips of this evening on my Nikon D300s camera using an AF-S Nikkor 35mm lens. Sound was recorded just using the camera's built in mic, which while not optimal, yielded reasonably good results.

Thank you for watching and don't forget to watch the other parts! I created the first two installments from the middle of the lecture and I didn't think I was going to do any more. But there has been some demand for more so I've now created four more parts. To keep things chronological so you can follow the lecture as it happened (minus all of the parts I missed due to camera limitations or I edited out ;-), the two parts that come before part 1 are named 0 and 0.5. The final two installments that come after part 2 are named 3 and 4 of course!"

Here's a strange one - Switchable Rainbow LED effect. With Blue Control Knob, to vary the depth of this effect, seems to have its own type of set sequence which sounds great on this organ."

A friend of his had this same system and played acid and hard rock, with this combo it was unbelievable, great sound and once he got ust to it it was easy for him to use. I packed it away in the house in 1983. He got married and lost interest in music. The units are in the same box they were purchased in. Including the Synchronizing cable, two power supplies, the carrying cases, the instructional manuals including elementary and advance courses on how to use the system. I had taken out the batteries when I put them away. I have installed new batteries and checked out the system per the owners manuals. Everything is working like new."
