In addition to the design, the main sections for what type of products and services we are going to offer are up. You can check those out by using the Products menu. Keep an eye out for updates to the these sections as this is where we will be adding details for the modules, bent instruments and an assortment of other items over the coming days and weeks.

The current blog will remain an integral portion of AnalogueBus.com for news and other updates, but we are now expanding the site to reveal the many facets in store for the future of AnalogueBus.

This time I was aiming for a cleaner job and also to add a bunch of mods to it. That sounds like no big deal until you open the case to these suckers, there is ZERO room inside one. So I went about adding my standard 10 bends when I stumbled on a new one diagnosing a problem. The Talking Teacher (henceforth called TT) has an amazingly cool hold button, but it goes beyond the normal hold and allows “stutters” and random memory accesses. So I added a button on the right side so as you are hitting things you can add a glitch “hold”. Also to super expand it across the top back is going to be a single row of the female pin headers. It will have tiny Krynar wires running down it into a hole and the soldered to every pin in the system (that’s worth it) this combined with another female header on top which has 3 pots glued to it, 5 buttons, and a dipswitch/pot combo. It will allow you to module style connect up bends thus vastly expanding it. The dipswitch/pot combo is for a 10 step sequencer.

Current picture sans modularizing:

]]> http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/27/new-case-shots/feed/ 0 My new case from SynthCase.com http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/25/my-new-case-from-synthcase-com/ http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/25/my-new-case-from-synthcase-com/#comments Sun, 25 Oct 2009 19:28:17 +0000 bryan http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/?p=156 I know there has been an explosion of insaneness on the forums lately over Randal’s cases at SynthCase.com. Here are some quick pics of my case I got yesterday. I have not been able to properly put everything together, but just wanted to drop in a few modules and act silly and add two of my 128 Monomes at the bottom. The pics are really cheesy from my cellphone. Nothing is really tightly bolted together and the power supplies and distros are just sitting in the bottom of the case. Hopefully will have time tomorrow eve to finish it up.

Mind you all of them are currently missing cables.

 


What do you think non-bananafied people?

Doh! http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/09/16/i-need-to-update-more-often-doh/ http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/09/16/i-need-to-update-more-often-doh/#comments Wed, 16 Sep 2009 17:15:36 +0000 bryan http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/?p=146 This only includes a few of the massive amout of stuff we are working on :(

Here is one of the new 6 voice polyphonic synths before it was etched

Here is circuit bent Yoda:


In the background you can see another poly cigar box that uses body contacts (man I wish I could get ahold of some of those arduino piano shields!):


Finally my little sheep screamer with lfo modulators, square wave osc, and finally a baby toy that was a sheep that is massively bent:
