arduino controlled casios and voice memo recorders
November 20th, 2010 | Posted in Blogroll
I’ve finally started playing with the arduino. This is my first project. I’m using the arduino to sequence 2 casio SK1s, a casio SA-38 and 3 voice memo recorders. I’ll be posting a tutorial on how to do this yourself in the next issue of Make magazine.
Benjolin light synth experiments

Check out the Benjolin Light Synth HERE.
I’ve started playing with the echo module built into the synth. It’s based around a modified 1980s era BOSS RSD10 SAMPLER/ECHO. The sampler has a trigger in and a frequency in. I’m using the sequencer clock to trigger the echos and th output of oscillator one to control the pitch of the echo.

Spectral Transducer coming soon!

This is the new project we’re working on. The “spectral transducer”. It’s a sound to light circuit that we will be selling as a kit or pcb and will be completely open source.
Below is a video of the SD processing the DroneLab. They make a nice pair!
and below… some Daft Punk. the above video is a bit quiet and the one below is a bit loud, or just right depending on how you look at it. in any case volume adjustment may be necessary. You’ve been warned.

Black is the new green
July 19th, 2010 | Posted in Blogroll
The Drone Lab has gotten a make over. We’ve done away with the standard old green PCB and upgraded to a more sophisticated…elegant black! The Drone Lab is available as a kit or a finished unit through our order page. OR build your own from scratch. The drone lab is completely open source and we love to see people build their own!
