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...
This is being tested using a 1kV anode voltage instead of the 8kV on the datasheet. The filament voltage is regulated at 1V with a 3.3Ω series resistor. Modulation voltage is 12V. Acceleration (55v) and Focus (31-55v) are approximately in proportion with the original ratios.
In the afternoon of 15 April 2009, the Moon-1 Humvee Rover encountered a snow-covered lead (opening in the sea-ice exposing liquid water) at 68o15.573’N, 108o52.820’W which caused the vehicle to sink through slush and become immobilized. The Northwest Passage Drive Expedition team succeeded in rescuing the vehicle using the Moon-1’s powerful front winch, ice anchors, and the Humvee’s unique break throttle modulation (BTM) torque transfer capability. The Expedition continued that day and reached Campsite Five at the western tip of Kent Peninsula (68o36.820’N, 108o19.409’W) in the evening, achieving a distance traversed that day of 97 km and a total distance traversed from Kugluktuk of 336 km.

Highlights from NPR (Neighborhood Public Radio) at MOCA's Engagment Party. "IN YOUR CAR" Day 2 of 3
While MOCA generally encourages green transportation, NPR asks that visitors bring their cars to this event. FREE parking will be available in public lot 7; entry is accessible from Judge John Aiso Street.
In Your Car will feature two concurrent sound projects broadcasting on local frequencies, Park Park Revolution and Ping Modulation.
Park Park Revolution will be a composition “played” by cars parked in the lot surrounding the Geffen Contemporary. NPR will divide the Geffen lot into four sections, with each assigned to its own broadcast frequency. Directed into parking spaces, drivers will be instructed to tune in their radios and turn up their volumes to create a quadraphonic matrix of sound.
Under the canopy located at the Geffen entrance, Ping Modulation will pay homage to artist Robert Rauschenberg’s Open Score. For this project, NPR will outfit ping-pong tables with contact microphones and sound processors; as visitors match off in games of table tennis, the noise of their play will be fed to radio broadcasts that will transform their participation into sound art.

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.
So I moulded and casted an improved cockpit from my vac-formed master, cleaned it up, and hey, not bad!
All credit for the electronics and programming work goes to my dad, who is just roughing out the sequencing for the micropython system. He assures me the modulation and frequency can be made a lot smoother, but these tests are just to understand what we're trying to acheive

With the EBS UniChorus you can choose between low noise studio quality Chorus, Flange and Pitch Modulation effects. Analog Processing
The pedal is built with the best analog processing circuitry. This gives a smoother, warmer and fatter sounding chorus/flange effect, useful both for live and studio performances.
From Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Reserve, near Drawbridge, the Weep Site, north "connector", on Feb. 18, 2008. Salinity = 52-PPT. Photomicrograph taken at 1,000x magnification, oil immersion, with Hoffman Modulation optics. This Cyanobacterial filament lacked a sheath, but was motile, resembling "Oscillatoria" species found elsewhere in the salt marsh. These motile filaments were in the minority on this date at this site, most similar filaments showing a sheath and no motility. By May, as the Weep Site evaporated and the salinity went up above 100-PPT, the Cyanobacteria vanished, to be replaced by a community of Dinoflagellates.
From Minas Gerais in Brazil comes this 4" wide specimen of optical calcite placed upon a reflective CD-R disc. A green laser beam is directed through the crystal in the direction shown by the arrow. Green laser light is scattered as it enters and exits the calcite. Within the calcite the laser beam stimulates red fluorescence likely due to manganese impurities.
The photo was taken through red laser goggles acting as a high Q magenta (green rejection) notch filter.

Class 4 antennas such as Sentinel® from CommScope diminish the
risk of interference to the microwave link (see graph), providing a marked improvement of the
carrier-to-interference (C/I) ratio. This allows radios to operate at higher modulation levels for
longer, thereby increasing total traffic and, hence, revenue over the link.
Additionally, Class 4 antennas with their low side lobe levels allow better reuse of the same
frequency channel, thus requiring fewer channels. This more efficient use of spectrum offers
significant advantages: The repeated reuse of the same frequencies substantially reduces
spectrum costs; alternatively, where required, the spectrum freed by using Class 4 antennas
allows wider channels to be used, thus increasing capacity in the network.

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.

After almost eighteen years of deceptive silence, Brazen is back with Distance, an ambitious indie-rock epic where melancholic modulations and vocal harmonies intertwine on a soaring instrumental carpet. The eight tracks that make up the album are characterised by refined songwriting, carried by an epic breath that makes each track a journey in its own right. Composed, arranged and recorded remotely between London and Geneva over the course of almost a decade, the album is as musically polished as it is rich in narrative twists. The meticulous care taken in its conception gives it a timeless character that in no way detracts from its emotional intensity.
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.

Tidal Quad Modular Filter
Only 15-20 are build
Back rear controls, in-outputs
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.

Got two Korg Monotron in the mail today. Amazingly small. About the size of an iPhone.
So far I really really like them. The filter is damn raw, and combined with the LFO modulation (ranging from slow enough to fast enough, with a ramp down saw waveform) you can get some sweet squelches out of it. Also, the LFO is retriggered whenever you hit a note. Good for faking an envelope if you let it control the filter.
When using the external input, max out the LFO speed and depth and set the resonance to about 60% and twiddle the cutoff knob for a bitcrusher style effect.
Hmm, if I could sync the VCO's and feed the output of one into the other... These babies are definitely going under the screwdriver tomorrow.

Age management medicine is not anti-aging medicine because aging will still occur, but the synergy of nutrition with appropriate supplementation, physical activity and hormone modulation constitute the steps to a more enjoyable life and disease prevention.
Here, we've pretty much settled on curve of intensity change, but we wanted to see what it would look like where all the LEDs are always on at a low level, but pulsing to higher intensity.
This is all being done with pulse width modulation and an arduino.
Next step, more LEDs, brighter, with a wider view angle.

A pair of free-form volumes responds to the landscape qualities of the site – a former floodplain of the Rhine – as well as to the memory of villas in park-like settings that once occupied this now increasingly densified area. In addition the new buildings acknowledge the sculptural characteristics of the adjacent twelve-storey 1960s high-rise, while their vivid polychromy supports the organic character of the external space.
In each building the office areas are arranged around three compact cores. Primary cores are connected to the main entrance hall, while secondary ones are entered from the more intimate patio spaces. Every floor can be subdivided into three distinct units, each identifiable through its own reception area, sculptural stair and elevator core. The varying depth of plan offers a great number of variations in office layout. The generosity of the windows is echoed in the glazed corridor walls that ensure maximum light throughout the depth of the plan, while giving spectacular views out towards the Rhine and Cologne Cathedral.
One innovative development lies in the series of finger-shaped canopies that were prototyped as an alternative to a suspended ceiling, so as to take advantage of thermal mass and to increase clear height. All necessary services – lighting, air distribution, sprinklers and acoustic modulation – are unobtrusively integrated in these overhead elements. The offices use groundwater from the Rhine as a source of geothermal energy and to supplement the heating and cooling systems, while also carefully building above the 100-year water level and to flood defence specifications.

Description of work: Renaissance Hotels tasked architect Jose R. Marchand and interior designer Jorge Rossello with renovating and saving this beachside landmark. "[B]y the mid-1990s the venerable La Concha hotel had been shuttered, abandoned and left to rot...Originally designed by Osvaldo Toro and Miguel Ferrer, with an eccentric but utterly loveable seashell-shaped restaurant by Mario Salvatori [sic], La Concha was a beautifully massed, expertly sited, vividly inventive building perfectly in sync with its time. Closely attuning the hotel to its sun-swept setting, the architects created deep-shading overhangs, open corridors, windows and doors that gave onto lush interior courtyards and provided cross ventilation, and beautifully lacy quiebra-sol (their take on a brise-soleil) for further modulation of the light and heat" (Frank, Michael. "La Concha Revival". Architectural Digest. Aug 2009, p. 103-104. Print).
