The wires for the LEDacles (those silly things sticking out of the Thingamagoops heads) are taken from old scsi and printer cables.

A meeting of synth-geeks at my studio. 3 December 2011.

Relaxing (Tim) setting up his system.

Dirty Electronics Mute Synth custom modified by A.S.M.O. for Daniel Miller (The Normal / Mute Records).

Touch panels hardwired to pots and switches, 3 LFOs, one for each oscillator and feedback.

Low / band pass resonant filter with external voltage control input, self oscillates at full resonance.

Panel is covered in (warm) leatherette, nice!

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...

A structure synth experiment. This is a random representation of the "Quantum stories" code.

A shoulder strap with strap locks is very necessary on the Liberation. Quite heavy and you _don't_ want to drop it.

Operation time on my synthesizer!

  

One of the voices on this Elka is bad. I thought it was the CEM 3396 chips but not really as it turns out. Still trying to figure out the cause.
