- 22.10.2011 - EMB Panel population

All hardware is populated for Sequencer, VCO1 +2, LFO1 + 2 and ADSR1 + 2. Only LED-holes are little bit too small (happily there are not many of them). Everything else is 100% ok ! Next I will connect the Sequencer and get it alive:

- 4.08.2011 - Complex VCO

 I have finally managed to get all the wave-shaping to work for my Complex VCO. It has eight waveforms and here you have a sound-sample of them. This is only one VCO and nothing else. Waveforms are triangle -> spike -> 2F saw -> square -> even > sine -> saw -> douple pulse (DP). DP's timbre and pulse width is played with manually:

- 26.06.2011 - Ambient Laboratory

This is my first music-happening I am organising. I hope I can organise also Ambient Laboratory 2012. You can never present this kind of music too much. I would also like to get some foreign artists...

- 30.05.2011 - Buchla 208 Timbre Generator

The first new circuit is ready. Buchla timbre generator folds parts of an incoming signal and creates additional harmonic content. This is accomplished by passing the input signal through a series of nonlinearities. Here is the original timbre generator part from 208 complex oscillator:

And here is my veroboard version of it. Signal goes first thru a VCA (not on this veroboard) and then to this timbre generator circuit (added some OP-amplification to get it about 10V pp):

Here are two soundsamples. First is a manual timbre-sweep from sine to extreme. The second is sample and hold modulating the pitch and LFO modulating the timbre:
