"Another video of the buchla LPG getting taken through its paces (still on the breadboard... I need to actually finish this thing sometime...).

This video also features some new(ish) modules for my system that I finished over the summer: my eight-step circle sequencer (providing the main melody/groove line), and my 4x4 grid sequencer (providing randomness to the poppy/clicky part) (there you go electro-music diy folks, better late than never right?).

Effects include delay via an empress super delay, reverb via my mixing board, and overall audio shittyness via my cell phone's mic.

Thanks again for watching!"

Blip Festival Tokyo: Nullsleep / No Carrier

Blip Festival Tokyo: Nullsleep / No Carrier from Jeriaska on Vimeo.


"'Pleasure Construct' by Nullsleep, performed September 4 at Koenji High as part of the Blip Festival Tokyo concert event.

nullsleep.com/​bio.php

Nullsleep is the alias of Jeremiah Johnson, an electronic musician whose style could best be described as post-cyberpunk: a combination of distorted synthpop, electro, and industrial produced with repurposed low-bit electronics. His approach embraces the politics of appropriation, leveraged limitations, destructive process and data corruption. The result is a wall of digital noise driven by a heavy beat, expanding and collapsing in a series of glitches and drones emanating from cheap plastic devices. In 1999 Nullsleep cofounded 8bitpeoples, a collective of artists interested in the audio-visual aesthetics of early home computers and video game consoles. He has since released a number of recordings through 8bitpeoples, Astralwerks, Aniplex and others. Based in New York City, Nullsleep has performed over 150 shows throughout North America, Europe and Asia, including successful world tours in 2006 and 2009.

"From the Blacet site: 'The Balanced Modulator with its bell-like, dissonant modulations is one of the key sound generators of electronic music. In operation, the two input frequencies are multiplied and the sum and difference output with the fundamentals suppressed. The resulting tones can exhibit rare beauty or serious cacophony. With a built-in envelope follower and three way voltage controlled waveform modulator, this module goes way beyond conventional ring modulators. Klang Werk packs a whole lot of modular synth into a small package, but doesn't take anything away from its use as a traditional module.'"

Use the Malgorithm to bring external signals into aesthetic compliance with the rest of the Harvestman system. Enable eloquence through spectral profanity.'"

PROTOTYPE Roland SH-5 Synthesizer


via this auction

"Here's one for a museum! This is a prototype SH5 made by Roland. The story i got is this was found in a closed music store in the 90's and was sold, i believe being owned by two people since then, one person being a tech, and i am the third. I am a synthesizer manufacturer and have opened this up to verify it is a prototype, also A/B'ing it with a production model know first hand it even sounds different. Here is the good and bad


Bad first: it's missing the cover that holds the power cord in when not in use. Missing the bottom plate that is underneath the key bed, you wont notice it unless you are looking underneath...and the production model I believe is the same so if you find one that is being parted out you could get these two parts. I think two of the latches on the cover are broken. Lastly the separate band pass filter section is whacky, it overloads very easily. I initially was going to fix it but decided to keep it original.

The good: everything (except the separate BPF) works, and you also have the BPF in the "main" filter. All sliders, pots, keys etc work as they should and it sounds amazing!!!!! Unless the new owner sells this you will never see another prototype SH5 again, get it before someone else does!"

Flight Of Harmony V'Amp VCA Barebones Pack

via this auction

"What is it?
The V’Amp is a combined voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) and ring modulator (A.K.A. ring “mod”), with a little bit extra. The effect of a VCA is known as amplitude modulation (AM), while a ring mod is a frequency mixer, an effect known as heterodyning.
Heterodyning takes two frequencies –– traditionally known as the “carrier” and the “modulator” –– and mixes them, producing the frequencies that are sum and difference of these two at the output, i.e., if the carrier is 220Hz and the input is 400Hz, the sum frequency will be 620Hz and the difference frequency will be 180Hz. Ring modulation is used to generate non-harmonic (not an integer multiple of the base frequency –– 2x, 3s, etc.) frequencies, which are necessary for, say, metallic sounds like cymbals. A perfect heterodyning will have neither the carrier nor the modulator present in the output. While achievable on paper, this is extremely difficult to accomplish in reality, so some bleedthrough of one or the other (or both) is often present to some small degree.
While typical ring mod devices are designed specifically for frequency mixing, the V’Amp allows you to not only change the degree of the mixing and the level of the bleedthrough, but can also be used as a VCA at the same time. The mixing can be varied from VCA (carrier only), into ring mod, then out of ring mod into inverting VCA (inverted carrier).
Mod1 is the modulator. Envelope and Mod2 should be thought of as VCA (AM) inputs, but separate. Envelope is a straight VCA control voltage (CV) input, while Mod2 is an attenuated/variable CV input.
The morphing of the Mod1 function is not fully controllable by CV and must be varied using the knob to access the full range of variation. However, experimentation has shown that a DC offset voltage applied to the Mod1 input can be used to voltage-control a small range of the function morphing.
As with all f(h) products, the V’Amp was engineered towards maximizing functionality while keeping cost as low as possible. If some aspects of the unit seem awkward, it is most likely due to this. The goal is to make unique, useful, enjoyable, and affordable instruments, not just hoover1 out your bank account, so each module requires a little patience and experimentation before their secrets become apparent.

Controls
Mod1: This is the magic knob, controlling the frequency mixing as described in the introduction. Mod1 varies the amount that the Mod1 signal modulates the input signal, as well as controlling the polarity of the output: positive from 7:00 to 12:00, negative from 12:00 to 5:00.
Mod2: This is the Mod2 input attenuator control.
Offset: Think of this as an internal gain control. The Offset can be used to raise or lower the general level of the output signal, but it also can be used to fine-tune the interaction of the various CV inputs. Try it, you’ll understand.
Input: This is the input level control. Just like a volume knob – clockwise increases level, counter-clockwise attenuates the signal level.

Output: Output level control. Acts the same as the Input control. Jacks
Env in: Unattenuated VCA CV input. Mod1: Modulator signal and/or CV input. Mod2: Attenuated VCA CV input. Input: Signal (or carrier) input.
Output: The output jack."

Flight Of Harmony POWER Barebones Pack w/Power Adapter

via this auction

"What is it?
This one is pretty straightforward: a power supply for your modular synthesizer rig. No sweet spots, no easter eggs, it just makes juice.
POWER was designed with portable racks in mind –– shallow depth, reduced weight, and keeping the mains transformer outside of the case to eliminate related noise and heat –– but it can be used to supply any compatible system.

Usage
The standard AC wall adapter (if you purchased the standard unit) is rated for 1 Ampere (A. K. A. 1 Amp, 1A, 1000mA), as is the POWER module itself. For best performance – and this applies to ALL electronics, by the way – you should never run POWER at its maximum rating. A 60% load (600mA) is the practical limit for best performance. If you need/want to run it up to 75% or 80%, a greater capacity adapter is needed to maintain performance. Adapters get hotter as more power is drawn from them, which increases the internal resistance and thusly reduces the performance. A 1500mA rated adapter is recommended. The adapter plug must be a 2.1mm x 5.5mm x 9.5mm barrel-type plug.

Connections
The output connectors are standard 0.25” width male quick-connect terminals, compatible with the standard Doepfer PSU harnesses and distribution board terminals.
T+1 & T+2: +12V T-1 & T-2: -12V TG1 & TG2: System ground
Compensation jumpers
Power supplies are infamous for mysteriously becoming unstable. Their performance is dependent upon the type of load they are powering, and no two systems are the same. As I have dealt with this sort of problem in the past, there are provisions on the PCB to adjust the regulator output capacitors to tailor output performance to your specific
load characteristics.
The existing jumpers – JP1(V+) & JP2(V-) – bypass these provisions, and are required for normal operation. The positions marked JP3 & JP4 are connected in parallel with C4 and C8, respectively, and can be used to increase the regulator output
capacitance. Cut JP1 or JP2 as necessary to reduce the output capacitance.

Includes a US-Style Power Adapter"

YouTube via newechoproductions | September 23, 2010

"In this video I'm playing my original instrumental electronic music song "Alone" from my album REBOOT http://markmosher.bandcamp.com/album/... .

I'm about half way through arranging and programming the synthesizers and controllers so I can add this song to my live set. I'm making great progress so I thought I'd share a rehearsal video.

It's such an organic piece, I decided to play the entire song from Percussa AudioCubes using only spatial hand movement. Ableton Live is playing back the pulsing drone, but almost all other elements are being played live via the AudioCubes. The AudioCubes are in "sensor" mode so placing my hand in front of a cube face plays a note on a virtual synthesizer hosted out of Live - almost like a Laser harp.

I only use the Novation Launchpad to change which tracks are armed thereby allowing me to switch which synths I'm playing on-the-fly throughout the song.

At the 2:00 minute mark I start playing chords by using multiple faces simultaneously.
