I don't have the gear to record in best quality in this room... I wish you'd hear the sound I'm hearing during the jam."

LoFi Future - Fragmenter 45 Circuit Bent HDMI Video Glitch Processor


video upload by LoFiFuture

"Available to order here: https://www.lofifuture.shop/product/f...

Track: LoFi Future - Canicular Days
https://lofifuture.bandcamp.com/track...
https://open.spotify.com/album/5oSvIp...

The Fragmenter 45 is a circuit bent Extron 1604 HDMI Scaler. It is a very high quality unit that demanded a very high retail price when originally released. The HDMI signal integrity is pixel perfect and doesn't compress your image when passed through this thing. It processes 1080p 60fps signals without even breaking a sweat!

This one features some effects that are new to myself, targeting a specific part of the clock circuitry that I have not experimented with before on any other device. The 3 push buttons trigger different clock glitch effects that completely take over the signal and make some mesmerizing patterns. They are an extreme and immediate set of effects, perfect for the most intense parts of a live visual performance. A bonus feature of these buttons is that when subtle artefacts build up on the screen after a while even when the effects are all off, a quick press of one of these buttons and they are all cleared! No need for a reset mid performance!

Another effect unique to this device in the horizontal warp effect that makes the clean HDMI signal degrade into something that looks like a weak analog transmission.

8 knobs control the colour digitise effect and another 9 knobs control the "fragment" effect section that splits the image up and repeats it in slices at a 45 degree angle. These two banks of knobs can be linked together with a toggle switch for even more effect possibilities.

This unit also features a VGA input and can scale the signal to a HDMI output, all of the effects work the same when doing so."

boards of canada - the process (cover)


video upload by fischek

"A piano and synth cover of 'The Process' by the legendary Boards of Canada, from their incredible new album, 'Inferno'.

I've been captivated by the 'Inferno' album since its release and wanted to share my interpretation of this beautifully soothing and melancholic track. If you enjoy this, let me know in the comments! I'm planning to cover more from the album soon, with 'Naraka,' 'Hydrogen Helium Lithium Leviathan,' and 'Blood in the Labyrinth' being next on my list.

What's your favorite track from the new album?

A gem from the Tomorrow's Harvest. Far from perfect, but kinda close. I hope to do a full cover at some point. Hope you like! :)"

Emu SP1200 & SP12 OTBElec SP MIDI Interface w/ Original Box



via this eBay listing

Here's an interesting device from the recent past. According to the listing details below the final batch came out in 2017. It's from OTBElec and this appears to be the first post to feature them on the site. The www.otbelec.com website is no longer live.

This one was spotted and sent in via
M Me. via the listing: "I bought this new & it was part of the final batch made in 2017. I stored it away because my SP12 required servicing & the interface subsequently was never used (or even unwrapped).

This may be the only brand new OTB MIDI in existence.


"The SP MIDI converts non-standard MIDI messages from the SP-1200 to regular MIDI. One such message is note off, which is required to set the length or duration of sequenced notes. The SP MIDI also translates the pitches of bank D to a continuous range of notes to store and sequence external devices. When recording it is necessary to set rec mode.

Internal mode is used to select up to three samples which then have their 16 pitch levels mapped out over the keyboard. Now supporting note off you can play like you would normally expect, where the sample mutes when the key is released. Excellent for looped samples, i.e. bass lines.

External mode is used to sequence other instruments. It uses bank D1-D6 to record notes on one MIDI channel and D7-D8 on another channel. D1-D6 is mapped to a full note range by pad number and pitch, making it possible to play a melody using the pads. Also note off is sent as you hit the pads a second time, unless F1 oneshot is selected. D7-D8 is combined together to give a full range of note numbers and is best used with a keyboard.

Dynamic velocity is maintained, if not Full Level is selected.

The SP MIDI firmware can be updated using a computer with a MIDI interface.

These features also allow pitching and using the loop function on a S950."



Leviasynth no talking Ambient Algomorphing fun

"Just an example of utilizing multiple synthesis modes inside an algorithm and morphing the algorithm around. no external processing. Leviasynth was played live via MIDI from a Leviasynth keyboard underneath the desktop while recording in one take."

Novation Peak / Summit by Jexus.


video upload by Jexus (sounds-for-synths.com)

"😎 This is a free update with new sounds, available for everyone who got the original Jexus Peak / Summit Soundset. If you're new to this, you can get it here:

https://sounds-for-synths.com/novatio...

All sounds come from the "Jexus Peak / Summit Soundset" with 250 custom presets / patches. The patches work on both Peak & Summit. You don’t need any custom / external wavetables. However, you need firmware V 2.0 minimum. My presets come under the name “WCOG + number” in a soundbank saved as a sysex file. Note: my presets will be a little bit quieter than the factory presets.

I did not use any external FX in the demo; all the delays, reverbs, noises and other effects are part of the Peak / Summit engine & mod matrix. I only used some EQ-ing on selected sounds."
