Dual Polymoog Resonator panel

Sketch for JH's Polymoog Resonator clone...

Dual VCS Euro panel

This is the preliminary design for a dual VCS, but having seen Macumbista's design, I think I might have to change it!

Euro 281

So, this is a completed Eurorack (Bananarack?) version of the Buchla 281 module, this is a dual unit. I've added an external input to the PEAK circuit, attenuators on both A and B inputs to the PEAK circuit, a BOTH input (with a bi-polar attenuator for positive and negative control voltage processing) and each section (A&B) has an independent polarizer, allowing the output to be patched into either RISE or FALL of either section, for adjustable exponential or logarithmic envelopes (I haven't examined this yet on a scope, so I hope it works!)...

I'll also be making a couple of these with the dreaded MINIJACK (aaaargh!) for someone who has not yet seen the light ;-)

I think the panel looks okay, the Lazertran worked out better than expected, even on the .01" lines. I'd also like to try lenses on the LED's as it would look a bit better I think, the next one should have these...

Studio

Here is a pic of the studio... access is a bit tricky... actually any movement is....

Live setup

Just played first live gig using this setup with a chap on drums (Tower) I guess we started a band - Solina Hi-Fi check http://www.myspace.com/solinasound.

Think it went well, hopefully got more stuff upcoming... Which I might post here... Wasn't too bad lumping the synth to the venue, but maybe a portable option would not be a bad idea...

News!

My memory card got fried, so none...
Got a new one...

Just tried Lazertran for the first time, as the letraset was a pain, and have found that it is pretty good and easy to use - so far... The legend seems thin in places, and missing in others (it's a Buchla 231 clone, rather than a 281) but this could be more to do with the printer settings maybe...

I also found that I need to get shares in a company that makes IPA, as I used about a litre making this...

Merry Christmas Grodj!
