Tidal Quad Modular Filter
Only 15-20 are build
The Tidal Quad is a 4-channel filterbank with extensive control and modulation possibilities. The filter can be used in High-/ Low-/ or Bandpass with an Envelope follower for each mode. There is also an LFO for each set of 2 Channels which allows complex modulations. Additionally it offers a Waveshaper for each channel. For friends of analog distortion this unit leaves no wish open.
* 4x HP/BP/LP - Filtermodule
* LFO Channel 1+2 (Cutoff)
* LFO Channel 3+4 (Cutoff)
* LFO each channel positive or negative switch
* 1 Waveshaper per Channel
* 4x Sidechain Input with Envelope Follower for Cutoff-Modulation
The resonant filter might be the most important effect in popular music these days. However if you want to insert a filter on multiple channels of your mixer and also would like to have a lot of knobs and modulation possibilities, there was no real solution. That's why Tidal Music Electronics announces it's four channel desktop multimode filter. You can switch the four individual resonant filters between Lowpass, Bandpass and Highpass modus. Each filter can be modulated by an envelope follower, a LFO and an external CV. The envelope follower is specially designed to track percussive sounds without false triggering, a key feature when used with drumcomputers, grooveboxes or guitar.
Maximum Modulation:
Each filterbank has 4 VCFs, 4 Waveshapers, 4 Envelopefollowers and 2 Low Frequency Oscillators (LFOs). The filters are switchable between 3 modes, Lowpass, Bandpass and Highpass. The Low- and Bandpass are 24 dB and the Highpass is 12 dB/Oct. The cutoff of each channel can be modulated by it's own Envelope follower which can be fed by a sidechain input or by the audiosignal itself. This option gives you the possibilities to create very funky filter-effects. Each LFO modulates 2 channels and every channel has it's own depth controller which can be set positive or negative. This can be used to generate cool stereo effects.
The Waveshaper
The waveshaper is one of the components which give the filterbank it's unique sound. It actually is a wavefolder which "folds" the tops of the waveform back instead of clipping. This sounds a bit like an overdrive but also has some characteristics of Frequency Modulation.
To give you a better idea what the waveshaper actually does we'll illustrate what happens with a simple sine wave using different ratio settings for each of the two shaper modes.
The Palatine Chapel, is the royal chapel of the Norman kings of Sicily situated on the first floor at the center of the Palazzo Reale in Palermo, southern Italy.
Commissioned by Roger II of Sicily in 1132 and built upon an older chapel (now the crypt) constructed around 1080.
The mosaics being only partially finished by 1143.
The sanctuary, dedicated to Saint Peter, is reminiscent of a domed basilica. It has three apses, as is usual in Byzantine architecture, with six pointed arches (three on each side of the central nave) resting on recycled classical columns.
The mosaics of the Palatine Chapel are of unparalleled elegance as concerns elongated proportions and streaming draperies of figures. They are also noted for subtle modulations of colour and luminance. The oldest are probably those covering the ceiling, the drum, and the dome. The shimmering mosaics of the transept, presumably dating from the 1140s and attributed to Byzantine artists, with an illustrated scene, along the north wall, of St. John in the desert and a landscape of Agnus Dei.
Below this are five saints, the Greek fathers of the church, St. Gregory of Nissa, St. Gregory the Theologian, St. Basil, St. John Chrysostom and St. Nicholas.
The three central figures, St. Gregory, St. Basil, St. John Chrysostom, allude to the Orthodox cult known as the Three Hierarchs, which originated fifty years earlier.
Roger II of Sicily depicted on the muqarnas ceiling in an Arabic style.
The rest of the mosaics, dated to the 1160s or the 1170s, is executed in a cruder manner and feature Latin (rather than Greek) inscriptions. Probably a work of local craftsmen, these pieces are more narrative and illustrative than transcendental.
The chapel combines harmoniously a variety of styles: the Norman architecture and door decor, the Arabic arches and script adorning the roof, the Byzantine dome and mosaics. For instance, clusters of four eight-pointed stars, typical for Muslim design, are arranged on the ceiling so as to form a Christian cross.
Muqarnas ceiling
The hundreds of facets were painted, notably with many purely ornamental vegetal and zoomorphic designs but also with scenes of daily life and many subjects that have not yet been explained. Stylistically influenced by Iraqi 'Abbasid art, these paintings are innovative in their more spatially aware representation of personages and of animals.
The chapel has been considered a union of a Byzantine church sanctuary and a Western basilica nave.
The sanctuary, is of an "Eastern" artistic nature, while the nave reflects "Western" influences.
Nave
The nave, constructed under Roger II, did not contain any Christian images.
These were added later by Roger II's successors, William I and William II.
The nave's ceiling consists of Greek, Latin and inscriptions.
The frame for the royal throne sets against the west wall of the nave.
There are six steps leading up to where the throne would be, along with two heraldic lions in two roundels upon the spandrels over the throne frame gabel.
Sanctuary
As an expression of Norman culture, St. Dionysius and St. Martin are represented in the sanctuary.
Mosaics are of Byzantine culture in their composition and subjects.
The apex of the dome consists of the Pantokrator, with rows of angels, prophets, evangelists and saints.
The Byzantine motif ends abruptly with scenes from Christ's life along the south wall of the southern transept arm, while the north wall consists of warrior saints

This is a 1955 model National NC-300 receiver, this 57 year old design was considered the state of the art in its day. It is all tubes/valves. It weighs 50 lbs. I am in the process of restoring its younger sibling the NC-303. It came out in 1957. The two designs are very similar but the NC-303 has selectable sidebands for the newish SSB (Single Sideband) signals that were becoming prominent in the late 1950's. AM (Amplitude Modulation) was also prominent before loosing out to the SSB technology that occupies 1/3 the radio spectrum of AM. There were many battles on the airwaves before SSB won and became the voice standard.
Here's some spec's on this sweet system. It's a "Matrix" system, meaning that it has the ability to change all of it's routings on every preset.
Instead of being tied to one signal flow you can have any signal flow you want, when you want. Which is pretty handy for score music composer & guitar instrumental musician who has to constantly change the signal flow.
The switcher has a software interface that allows you to create an icon for each device and it's corresponding input(s) & Output(s), then using the mouse, connect the rig you want to have at that moment with no extra devices connected to the signal path for the cleanest path possible from pick ups to speakers.
A matrix switcher has 16x Inputs & 16x Outputs, so we decided to put 5 switchers in this system, connected them to each other & bunch of other cool gear. Each switcher has a "Group" responsibility:
1. "Master" - Magnetic & Piezo Inputs + 4x Amplifiers + 1 Axe FX ("Front End" of 4 Wire Config) + Multiple Connections to the other Switchers
2. "Harmonics" - Octave, Fuzz & Overdrive devices.
3. "Dynamics" - Compressors, EQ's Filters, Synthesizers.
4. "Modulations" - Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, UniVibe, & Tremolo.
5. "Time" - Delays & Reverbs + Axe FX ("Back End") for Reverb, Delay & Looper.
Any order & combination of series & parallel is possible, the possibilities for signal routings are only limited by the player's imagination...
Find Your Inspiration - Joseph
Every year, Joseph’s arrival was highly anticipated. He’s been a part of our gang every summer since he, Aviva, Zoe, and I met at the Spirit of the Mountains Camp 13 years ago. He’s allowed us to dress him up with feather boas and pig tails, he’s been on years of adventures with us singing loud, out of tune Disney songs (and just as enthusiastically joining in, but without the modulations). He's groggily answered 3 am phone calls about college essays and life questions. He has been there without fail since our first summer together. And since then he has always been a source of inspiration. This is because Joseph has an incredible power to give people hope. Before you stop reading because of how cliche that sentence sounded, let me explain: Do you ever put your headphones in, or turn up the volume of a song, because it evokes that indescribable emotion that you can't quite find anywhere else? It fills you up and makes the world that much more beautiful. That feeling is one of the reasons why music has remained such a large part of my life. It is the soundtrack I play in the back of my mind for every important, cheesy, and cliche moment. It’s the sound of my cowboy hat wearing dad playing Happy Trails as the flames of a camp fire start to die down. And since that first year of camp, Joseph has helped to make that sound. The other night, as we all sat in my living room passing around my father's guitar, Joseph added an inescapable beauty to the room. He squinted at Fleet Fox lyrics through Zoe’s broken iPod screen, harmonizing with her effortlessly while we loudly talked to him and each other. Joseph gives me the kind of hope and happiness that I find in music. I know this paragraph barely explains what he means to me, and I know I will never be able to thank him for this.
What I do know is that you will always be a part of my picture, Joseph.
He was given the nickname "Beardyman" because a name was quickly needed for a flyer for an early show, and he had a beard at the time.As well as accomplished solo beatboxing, Beardyman was inspired by MC Xander to use music technology such as the Korg Kaoss Pad 3 in order to loop and sample his vocals. Through his use of looping tools he effectively produces whole DJ sets where the records are constructed live from his vocalisations, as well as live production of original material.His music frequently contains elements of drum and bass, dubstep, breakbeat, trance, techno and other associated forms of electronic dance music. He also incorporates other forms of music into his live sets, including but not limited to reggae and country music, often purely for the purpose of providing a comedic counterpoint to his beatboxing. Virtually all of his music is created using his only his vocal chords to produce sounds, and incorporating music technology such as vocoders and software synthesis to alter the pitch of his voice, or to add various kinds of audio effects such as delays, reverbs or modulation effects. In various YouTube videos various pieces of electronic equipment can be spotted, notably the Korg Kaossilator Pro, the Kaoss Pad 3 (also known as the KP3), a Korg Wavedrum, a microKORG, a Boss GT-8 and a Boss RC-50.As of 2012 he has foregone the usage of Kaoss Pads in favour of proprietary software he has been developing, currently known as the Beardytron 5000 MkII. "Over the past 3 years I have worked tirelessly on the system, overseeing its development and testing, improving and configuring it. I had no choice really, as the shows I want to do are simply not possible using any existing off the shelf gear, existing software or even cobbled together patches using freeware. The system is essentially my life's work and will continue to be what i use for all my future endeavours. The Beardytron 5000 mkII is a work in progress and at some point you'll be able to buy some form of looper/production-system based on the innovations developed to make my shows possible. We've had to invent new paradigms in interface design to make it possible to control this many parameters at one time and at speed, and that's despite using Turnado which takes care of a large proportion of that using its 'within-preset-morphing'; it still took many vastly different iterations of the looper's interface to find the perfect balance of speed, accuracy and controllability. And as for the looper itself, it can do things no other looper in the world can do, small but vital advances which are fundamental to allowing a complex and dynamic looping based live-production performance possible. The looper/VST-host is designed to operate in perfect harmony with the interface and as I have been using the system, I have developed many macro's within the system which have introduced many efficiency gains over the course of this past summer of gigs. As I refine the presets I use within Turnado and Guitar Rig, each of which is an instrument in itself, the system will get more complex, subtler and faster to use." Beardyman further states: "The system is built from the ground up in C++ and objective C by Dave Gamble of DMGAudio and employs 15 instances and counting of a partly bespoke version of Sugarbytes' incredible linear-8-way-morph-engine controlled multi-effect 'Turnado'. Guitar rig is also used along with Rob Papen's delay. The system is controlled using 2 ipads running bespoke programs using a specially developed high definition, self-reconnecting protocol."In a video posted on YouTube on 24 October 2012 Beardyman further explains the conception and use of his new gear.On 29 November 2012 Beardyman posted a live gig performed in October 2012 in Pune, India, which was the first live gig audio revealed online to solely use the Beardytron 5000 MkII. He has stated that the software for the Beardytron 5000 MkII will be available to purchase by the public sometime in 2014.Early lifeForeman was born to a Jewish family in Stanmore, North London. After studying at Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School for Boys, Barnet, Foreman moved to Brighton in 2001 to study at the University of Sussex. Although he started making noises at the age of three by imitating Michael Winslow from the Police Academy movie series, it was seeing Rahzel perform live that convinced Foreman that beatboxing could sustain a whole show rather than simply provide interludes within the context of a broader presentation. Beardyman’s first musical venture was composing a symphony for his school orchestra at the age of ten. At fifteen, an introduction to drum and bass led to his long-standing obsession with music technology.Beatbox championships and other awardsIn 2006 Beardyman battled to become UK Beatbox Champion and retained his title in 2007 making him the first beatboxer in UK history to win two championships in a row. He was on the 2008 judging panel.CollaboratorsHis interest in exploring new musical technology is also evident in the innovative Battlejam club nights he hosts with 2007 DMC champion turntablist JFB. Here the live looping technology is augmented with live sampling of the audience to make the hook of instantly composed tracks and even live video sampling and scratching.He has gigged and recorded with MC Klumzy Tung as part of MC/beatbox duo The Gobfathers. Together, they presented Get Lucky TV's 'The Freestyle Show” in 2005, and also appeared as traffic wardens in a hidden camera show for E4.In 2008 he collaborated with visual artist mr_hopkinson, to produce a video called 'Monkey Jazz' which visually describes the live looping process, which has had over 1 million views on YouTube. Since then they have worked together to produce various multi-camera videos of Beardyman's performances filmed at the Cube Microplex. Beardyman has also appeared on stage for improvised live shows with mr_hopkinson providing visual backdrops from images instantly searched from the internet in response to audience suggestions.Viral videosBeardyman often incorporates humour into his act. He has impersonated Elvis, dressed as a monkey on stage at Bestival and once posed as an Austrian climate change lecturer, "Professor Bernhard Steinerhoff", before breaking into his set, with over 1 million views on YouTube. He also features in the Funky Sage ring tones in which he plays a floating head who beatboxes and gives good advice. His video "Kitchen Diaries" which features him combining beatboxing with cooking has been viewed more than 4 million times on YouTube. "Kitchen Diaries" also makes an appearance in 'South Coast', a Brighton based documentary about Hip Hop in the UK.

Conventional construction methods all depart from the basic premises of mass production: standardization, modulation and a production line. What these systems developed during the last two centuries fail to take into account are the evolutionary leaps and bounds the manufacturing industry has taken over the last decades. With the introduction of CNC technologies and rapid prototyping machines have altered the paradigms of fabrication forever. It is due to these new tools that it is now possible to create (n) amount of completely unique and different pieces with the same amount of energy and material that is required to create (n) identical pieces. The possibilities for implementation of new forms, textures, materials and languages are infinite due to the versatility that these new tools offer a growing network of architects, designers, fabricators that are integrating them into their professional practices to generate unique and precise objects that respond to countless data and real-life conditions.

I can't put this feeling into words. I have tried over the last week and cannot find the words that will express the significance this has had for me: observing loving mothers with their children, and families together has had such a healing effect on my heart. Thank you.
The ability to be changed by what you feel and see can be a powerful gift. We are changed by what we do. In this way, I am my own mother. I carry my mother within me.
In truth, we are all alone in some way, and in truth, we are never alone. Because we are all our own mothers.
- - - -
When you are alone, when you are weak, try to be a loving mother to yourself. Try to speak to yourself the way you would speak to the people whose heart, growth, future you hold most precious.
Teach your children how to be a loving mother to themselves.
Judgment and shame and guilt radiate from the inside out. So does unconditional love. So does acceptance, forgiveness and encouragement. Start by loving yourself.
After the gift of life, I believe this is the greatest gift.
Happy Mother's Day.

We hosted a lunch meeting with a couple of our favorite Stanford Profs: Nolan Williams (rapid TMS, ibogaine, nanoparticle drug-delivery to specific brain regions unlocked by focused ultrasound) and Karl Deisseroth (optogenetics, deep brain gene expression and ketamine).
Deisseroth is the pioneer of optogenetics, the mind-reading & writing tool that allows for individual neuron targeting and manipulation, and his new work looks at the effects of mind-altering drugs on brain function in detail.
For a sense of the power of his methods: he can take a pair of mice than were just mating happily, and with a flip of a switch, they become violent to each other. He made a mouse walk in an infinite left turn loop when a fiber optic is flipped on in the motor cortex (with no apparent awareness or distress at being controlled this way). He admits that he finds this capability “deeply disturbing.”
Another team selectively activated subsets of parenting behavior (like bringing wandering young back to the nest, or grooming behaviors). They can also probe three different sub-states of anxiety that we only experience as a bundle.
How does this work? Before the plant kingdom evolved chlorophyll to harvest energy from sunlight, the more ancient bacteria used rhodopsins in a membrane-bound proton-pump to do the same. The rhodopsins captured a swath of the sun’s spectrum, tilting the algae to the leftover parts of the spectrum not yet absorbed, and this is why plants are green. Karl introduced these bacterial light-triggered elements into neurons of interest using a viral vector to the brain. He can then trigger neuronal firing optically, as the rhodopsin pump supplements the ion channels in the neuron. He can also trigger reporter molecules from the bacterial world to read out brain activity as the brain is functioning.
So, for example, he has observed a 3 Hz cycling in the retrosplenial cortex of a mouse brain on ketamine, and he has been able to reproduce the effects with optogenetic stimulation to achieve similar effects. He has also found that the dissociative drugs (ketamine and PCP) allow for reflexes to pain (e.g., heat on paw or puff of air to eyes) to continue normally, while the protective cognitive reactions (licking the paws after heat or squinting in anticipation of the next puff) disappear, a disassociation of mind and body reflexes.
He is diving deeper into the brain to investigate how this works, finding that the various subregions of the thalamus are regulated by disassociative drugs by overpowering the voting circuits with a pulsing 3 Hz modulation of the ketamine-enhanced circuits. The other nodes in the thalamus are operating as before, but do not achieve as powerful a consensus. The thalamus regulates where we spend our attention and conscious focus, to avoid doing everything we might be tempted to do simultaneously, and thereby not really doing any of them well.
The implications of this level of understanding are enormous. The questions we can now ask using optogenetics will transform how we understand mental disorders and also call into question some deep philosophical questions surrounding consciousness and free will. It may also unveil the mysteries about how psychedelics operate in the brain, allowing us to optimize the use cases for testing in human clinical trials. Exciting work is going on with psilocybin for alcohol use disorder, extreme OCD and the eating disorders (which are also a disassociation of mind from body).
Also, “some patients do not disassociate on ketamine. From some anecdotal evidence, those tend to be the sociopaths.”
Disassociation naturally has a 10% incidence, and 70% among people with trauma. When in a state of induced disassociation (e.g., from ketamine), that 3 Hz rhythm occurs in a part of the Default Mode Network involved with coordinate transformations (aligning the 3D models for ego-centric and allocentric coordinates).
I find this fascinating in light of Jeff Hawkins’ work on the ubiquity of reference frames in cortical columns: Everything we perceive is a constructed reality, a cortical consensus from competing internal models resident in many cortical columns, the amalgam of 1000 brains. Those models are updated by data streaming from the senses. But our reality resides in the models.
Some of Deisseroth’s newest work saves and sequences the brain cells that stick to the deep-drain electrode needles, a core sample of genetic expression at different depths. These cells were routinely discarded, but now offer a new view into the workings of the brain.

In the real-time sound installation "leaky insulation", the perception of the surrounding space is modulated by rhythmical waves of presence and absence of sound. Ambient sounds are captured by a microphone and the signal is passed through a microcontroller programmed to modulate the signal amplitude with a slow sine wave function. Headphones are employed as a permeable interface through which to encounter the filtered soundscape.
By inviting viewers to listen to ambient sounds through a cyclical modulation, connecting and disconnecting the listener from the soundscape, the work heightens awareness for rhythmicity in the environment, offering a window into synchronous and asynchronous events.
This exhibition was created as part of a PhD study.

12 Interlocking Irregular Hyperboloidal Dodecahedra 360 units
2-fold view.
Following an initial prototype with only a singular unit type which attempted a hexahedral symmetry analog of 30 Dodecahedra, I developed this more nuanced version, which has a different exterior weaving pattern and multiple paper proportions. However, as a constraint, I attempted to use only one pocket type for all of the units. This makes some vertices different than others in terms of the dihedral angles of the surrounding units, but the edges shafts are long enough to accommodate modulation between vertices without appreciable difficulty in most cases. This is constructed via scaffolding so that each dodecahedron represents one edge of a cube. The resulting compound is at the time of writing this, the largest interlocking origami cubic symmetry wireframe compound by unit count that I know of.
Designed by me.
Folded out of Cordenons’ Stardream paper.
my intention with this photo was the show the beautiful tones that this super colorful image had, it was a huge mural and I tried to photograph it for what I saw
I think I did a great job with capturing the lines and shapes and great tones
For editing: I did some cleaning up. Sharpened and used noise reduction. Added black and white layer and Tuned to my liking in acr. and cropped
My reference is that duchemin said that Pulling the color from a scene allows the texture and tones to play in a stronger way than they do with the color present. he also said.
"Sure, you lose some of the mood but there’s a give and take in each decision. Knowing which to use, and when, comes as we learn to see in both color and black and white."
and freeman also said "Removing the quality of color from an image enhances its other qualities. With the modulation entirely in tone, the eye pays more attention to texture, line, and shape."
I used this for all my photos I tried to really focus of lines and texture as well as the tones and shapes.
ASM Hydrasynth Desktop
The HYDRASYNTH Desktop / Rack has the same great sound engine as the HYDRASYNTH Keyboard. The sound engine is a sound designers dream synth as well as a performing musicians ideal. The sound engine is designed for maximum flexibility. At the same time, we designed the user interface in a way to allow you to edit the patch quickly with a minimal amount of paging and many workflow shortcuts.
Utilizing an advanced wavetable synthesis engine, 3 Oscillators, dual Wave Mutators and 2 filters that can be configured in series or parallel, the tone generating capabilities are unmatched.
As for the performance capabilities, The Hydrasynth Desktop / Rack has 24 polyphonic pressure touch pads so that you can play the unit without needing to connect a keyboard or other controller. Using multiple pad layout modes as well as quick to access scale modes, the Hydrasynth Desktop / Rack is easy to make music on.
The Hydrasynth Desktop / Rack comes with rack ears so that you can mount it in a standard 19" rack.
Polytouch™ pads
One problem with many desktop or rack synths is that you usually have to connect them to an external controller to play them. The idea behind having a rack or desktop unit you can put anywhere is that it is out of the way. This is fine until you want to start doing some sound editing or adjusting it in real-time. Then you want a way to play it.
We have included 24 polyphonic pressure sensitive pads that allow you to actually play the synth. With multiple pad layouts to choose from as well as multiple scales, playing the Hydrasynth Desktop is its own musical experience.
Oscillators
The tone generation capability is the heart of any synthesizer.
The 3 oscillators allow you to choose from a selection of 219 single cycle waveforms.
Wavemorphing is a feature usually found on synths with preset wavetables. Creating user wavetables is arduous or downright impossible. Unlike most wavetable synths, our oscillators 1 & 2 have our WAVELIST mode. This mode allows you to pick and choose 8 waves, from our bank of 219, arrange them in the order you want, and then morph from one to another.
mutators
Oscillators 1 & 2 are routed into our MUTATORS. The Mutators allow you to modulate, bend and sculpt the sound in new
(and old) ways.
Each MUTANT allows you to choose from the following processes:
FM-Linear - for making classic FM sounds. Choose multiple FM sources, including external inputs.
Wavestack™ - creates 5 copies of the incoming sound and allows you to set a detune amount.
Hard Sync - This gives you those classic hard sync sounds. Try hard syncing a morphing wavetable for some fun.
Pulse Width - This will pulse width modulate ANY input sound.
PW - Squeeze - This is a different form of pulse width mod that creates a smoother sound.
PW-ASM - this mode divides the incoming wave into 8 slices and allows you to set how much pulse width mod will happen in each section.
Harmonic Sweep - this will sweep the harmonics of the incoming sound.
PhazDiff - this takes the input signal, shifts the phase and then creates a difference result with the original signal
The Mutants can also generate its own waveforms in both FM and Sync modes so that you do not have use another oscillator... Of course, the routing is flexible so you can choose the other oscillators as mod sources if you like.
Mixer/ filter routing
The 3 Oscillators are fed into a mixer along with the Noise generator and Ring Modulator.
The Mixer allows you to mix levels as well as pan the input source.
There is a balance control that allows you to choose how much signal of each source is routed to filters1 and 2.
The filters can be set to be parallel or series for ultimate flexibility.
filters
If oscillators and tone generators are the heart of a synthesizer, the filters are the soul.
The Hydrasynth has two filters that can be configured in series or parallel.
The first filter has 16 different filter models, giving you multiple options for tailoring your sound.
The second filter is a 12db per octave has a continuous sweep from either low pass > bandpass >high pass or low pass > notch > high pass, similar to the way the classic SEM filter worked.
LFO's
5 Low-Frequency Oscillators…YES, 5.
Much like our sound engine, the LFO’s are not ordinary by any means.
The Hydrasynth LFO’s feature a STEP mode that allows you to create patterns with up to 64 steps. Having 5 mini step sequencers gives you an amazing amount of possibilities for further shaping your sound.
Of course, there are also 10 standard waveforms to choose from.
The LFO's all have delay, fade in, 3 triggering modes, smoothing, start phase, one-shot mode so that they can act as envelopes and BPM sync.
envelopes
5 DAHDSR Envelopes……YES 5.
An advanced sound engine needs plenty of modulation sources. Our 6 stage envelopes feature Delay, Attack, Hold, Decay, Sustain and Release stages.
The time settings for the stage can be set in seconds or in time divisions, giving you envelopes that play in sync to your song.
You can also loop the envelopes to create LFO’s whose shape can be voltage controlled in the modulation matrix.
The envelopes have the added ability to be triggered from multiple sources as of the 1.5 update.
MODULATION MATRIX
The modulation capabilities on the Hydrasynth are endless.
With 32 user definable modulation routings, you will have plenty of ways to use the 29 modulation sources and 155
modulation destinations.
Almost everything in the synth engine can be a modulation destination including the effects and arpeggiator.
The Modulation matrix points themselves can also become modulation destinations.
Modulation sources & destinations include the CV Mod In & Out jacks as well as MIDI CC’s.
ARPEGGIATOR
The arpeggiator allows for standard note arpeggiations but also has a phrase arpeggio built-in. Parameters like RATCHET and CHANCE will generate other rhythmic patterns with some randomness to add life and spontaneity to your performance.
You can also modulate most of the parameters in the arpeggiator so imagine using LFO’s, Envelopes, Polyphonic Aftertouch or the Ribbon controller to modify your arpeggios in real time.
CV/GATE - MIDI - USB
There is the standard MIDI and USB/MIDI interfaces on the synth but we go deeper and allow the use of CV/GATE interfaces for connecting to the modular world.
It supports the standard voltages for Eurorack modulars, the 1.2V per octave Buchla standard, as well as some of the Japanese Volts>HZ products. The MOD in and outs allow for modulation from DC to full audio ranges, expanding your modulation capabilities.
Main Controls
The Main system controls are where you navigate your patches, configure system settings and see parameters like the envelopes, waveforms, filters in the OLED screen.
Init and Random buttons will allow you to initialize or randomize a complete patch or specific modules with a press & hold + module select button.
Pressing the HOME button returns you to navigating patches in a simple and easy way.
master controls
The Master Control section is where all parameter editing, patch naming, and Macro performing is done.
Using OLED screens, high-resolution encoders with LED rings, and 8 buttons, this section is designed to give you good feedback on what is going on.
The VOICE parameters give you access to play modes, analog feel, voice panning and many other features.
macros
The patch MACROS are designed to allow the user deep control over the engine in live performance.
The 8 assignable encoders and buttons can each be routed to 8 destinations. Complete sound transformations can take place with the press of a button or turn of a knob.
patches
The Hydrasynth comes with 5 banks of 128 patches in total. We hired some of the best patch designers around to create the 256 factory patches.
Finding the patch you want and searching the library is made easy with our BROWSER. Our PC/MAC based Patch Manager plug-in also allows easy moving of patches to create your favorite order as well as load in new patch libraries in the future.
effects
The effects chain goes beyond the typical ones found in other synths. Pre-effects and post-effects give you some unique ways to process your sound.
The delays and reverbs were modeled on some of the most popular effects on the market.
The effects are the perfect way to complete your sound, in the box.

Shifting Paradigms from Mass Production to Mass Customization
Computational architecture and design course
Conventional construction methods all depart from the basic premises of mass production: standardization, modulation and a production line. What these systems developed during the last two centuries fail to take into account are the evolutionary leaps and bounds the manufacturing industry has taken over the last decades. With the introduction of CNC technologies and rapid prototyping machines have altered the paradigms of fabrication forever. It is due to these new tools that it is now possible to create (n) amount of completely unique and different pieces with the same amount of energy and material that is required to create (n) identical pieces. The possibilities for implementation of new forms, textures, materials and languages are infinite due to the versatility that these new tools offer a growing network of architects, designers, fabricators that are integrating them into their professional practices to generate unique and precise objects that respond to countless data and real-life conditions.

The Dirty Carter Electronic Sound Generating Instrument was designed by John Richards (Dirty Electronics) and Chris Carter from legendary Industrial pioneers Throbbing Gristle. It was produced for a special performance by Carter and the 25 strong Dirty Electronics Ensemble in 2010. It was originally designed as a touch controlled instrument with the player's skin resistance completing the circuit. This hard wired modification by A.S.M.O. gives more control and predictability by wiring all to the touch contacts to pots and switches. An additional low pass resonant filter has been added, LFO and an external CV socket for filter modulation.
The case is made of stained ply and the front panel is covered with black leatherette.

Envelope generated by direct PWM synthesis on an Arduino. The beginning of this envelope is a 32-step exponential attack and the end is a 64-step exponential decay. The envelope is pre-computed using a small C program on a Linux machine, then stored in 256 bytes of Flash memory (ROM) in the Arduino's processor.
Here's some spec's on this sweet system. It's a "Matrix" system, meaning that it has the ability to change all of it's routings on every preset.
Instead of being tied to one signal flow you can have any signal flow you want, when you want. Which is pretty handy for score music composer & guitar instrumental musician who has to constantly change the signal flow.
The switcher has a software interface that allows you to create an icon for each device and it's corresponding input(s) & Output(s), then using the mouse, connect the rig you want to have at that moment with no extra devices connected to the signal path for the cleanest path possible from pick ups to speakers.
A matrix switcher has 16x Inputs & 16x Outputs, so we decided to put 5 switchers in this system, connected them to each other & bunch of other cool gear. Each switcher has a "Group" responsibility:
1. "Master" - Magnetic & Piezo Inputs + 4x Amplifiers + 1 Axe FX ("Front End" of 4 Wire Config) + Multiple Connections to the other Switchers
2. "Harmonics" - Octave, Fuzz & Overdrive devices.
3. "Dynamics" - Compressors, EQ's Filters, Synthesizers.
4. "Modulations" - Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, UniVibe, & Tremolo.
5. "Time" - Delays & Reverbs + Axe FX ("Back End") for Reverb, Delay & Looper.
Any order & combination of series & parallel is possible, the possibilities for signal routings are only limited by the player's imagination...

Telemetry is the science of measuring something in one place and reporting the results in another.
A simple example of telemetry is the automobile speedometer, which measures the wheels' rotation and presents it in miles per hour on the dashboard.
Most telemetry used in missile testing is Radio Frequency (RF) transmitted from a missile to a ground receiver. NASA uses telemetry to keep tabs on the functioning of space equipment. Telemetry has been one of the most important data sources used for testing at WSMR.
This telemetry package was discovered in an old missile assembly building in the mid-1980s. Shipping documents indicate that it was shipped to Douglas Aircraft Company at White Sands Proving Ground in 1956 and 1957.
These Commutator/ Transmitter sets are believed to have been utilized in the Honest John rocket.
Especially noteworthy is the fact that this Commutator was a motor driven, mechanical device and the VCO/Transmitter package used vacuum tubes. Today's packages are completely solid state.
How did this circa-1957 telemetry package work?
COMMUTATOR
Analog voltages representing a number of functions such as elevon, rudder and seeker head positions pressure, and battery voltages were sequentially sampled and converted to a voltage pulse temperature, train (commutated data) and sent to a VCO
VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator)
The voltage pulse train (commutated data) was used to drive a VCO to vary the oscillator's center frequency (called FM or frequency modulation)
TRANSMITTER
This FM (frequency modulated) signal from the VCO was then sent to a RF Transmitter (radio frequency amplifier) that transmitted the data through an onboard antenna to a ground station receiver
RECEIVER
The ground station received this transmitted data signal and sent it through an FM discriminator that changed the data signal back to a voltage pulse train.
DECOMMUTATOR
The decommutator converted the voltage pulse train data back to the original set of analog functions that were then recorded on media such as strip charts or analog tapes.
Got it far enough along to be functional. Need to address some shifting issues related to the change in cassette.
Conversion performed by using wheels from Velo Orange built on Velocity rims and hubs plus a new SRAM 8-speed cassette to replace the old 7-speed RSX cassette. Also necessitated swapping out the short-reach brakes for some Tektro R556 "extra" long-reach brakes. Was a little worried about some reported flex in the arms, but with the pads about halfway down they seem adequate, even if they don't have the best modulation in the world. Put on some Col de la Vie tires that I had already from another project. Very comfortable, although the tread is a bit strange -- one imagines it's a little squirmy -- on good pavement. Eats up the potholes, expansion joints, and detritus of our battered New England urban roads nicely, though.

The Apollo survival kit provided 48 hours of survival supplies for the three-man crew. Displayed are the contents of one of two rucksacks.
Radio Beacon
The survival radio was a hand-held, dry-cell-battery-powered, electronic signal and voice communications device. The radio could be operated within the SC by using a connector cable to the SC antenna. A constant emergency-signal and voice-contact device was required to aid rescue teams if postlanding recovery was delayed. Voice reception increased from approximately 30 to 120 miles. Voice modulation improved and radio weight was reduced from 6 pounds to 4 pounds. Beacon range reception also increased to 120 nautical miles, for search aircraft operating at 10,000 feet.
Survival Blanket
Three pieces of nylon-Mylar material that are 60 by 42 inches are provided for the Apollo missions. The material could be used for thermal protection and for signal purposes.
Water Containers
Three water containers were included in the Apollo survival kit. A 1/4-inch-radius indention forming an "X" on each of the two largest sides of the water containers solved a deflection problem which occurred because of pressure differential. A few crewmen also stated that the aluminum caused the water to have an undesirable taste.
