Handmade Music Austin #3 Sunday Dec 20th

If you’re not registered yet its probably full but come on down anyway because Mini Space Rockers kits are first come first served (30 seats available), starting at 4PM.  Our Upper Division project this month is Andromeda Mk-4  analog bass drums.  And at 8:30 we’ll move in to the gallery and see what happens when we plug everything in.  We’ve created an interactive installation with wireless synchronization for everybody.  PS if you have an Autonomous Bassline Generator, bring it b/c it sounds great with the Mk-4.  Check out the videos…

Snare is synthesized with Andromeda Mk-1 damped sine wave + Mk-2 filtered noise burst. The damped sine waves simulate the top head of the snare, and the Mk-2 simulates the bottom drum head and snare wires. The sharp percussion sound is from an experimental all-transistor circuit, on the left. Its triggered by a prototype 2-button loop sequencer using PIC 16F684, code by Wooster Audio.
