A demonstration of my completed KORG monotron mod. It also has a tape loop going in the background.

Some of the mods:
MIDI input
9 volt power regulator for power adapter input
portamento
sub oscillator
square wave with variable pulse
switch to turn of oscillator
LFO with assignable destinations
LFO wave shape
Envelope generator and VCO
assignable destinations for envelope
integrated synthrotek pt2399  delay kit with modded delay time

It sounds really good!

An experimental, improvised piece utilizing looping tape, and delay. 4 ostinati are recorded onto each of the TASCAM portastudio's tracks. They play perpetually because the cassette has been modified into an endless loop. The delay unit (Ibanez DD1000) also adds to the rhythmic texture by repeating these sounds via an effects loop. Its HOLD feature takes whatever sound is in its memory buffer and repeats it infinitely. It's sort of like a primitive sampler and creates very effective rhythmic variations on the source ostinato. Another technique is used on the arpeggiated synth motif. It is recorded onto track 2 and then mixed back with the original sound. As the tape moves at different rates, the arpeggios move in and out of phase with each other, creating new rhythms and melodies out of the original material.

An ambientish thing performed live on my new Access Virus TI and then mixed down to tape from REAPER.

Rhythmboy is a free software step sequencer programmed in Pure Data for the QuNeo controller by Keith McMillen Instruments.

This is a cover song I transcribed to play using only hardware.
Stuff used to play it:
Alesis Micron, Alesis DM5, Korg microkorg, Kawai Q-80 sequencer, Behringer mixer

Recently, I have been learning how to program using the audio language ChucK.

Here is another video added to Youtube. This was another attempt at creating a setup that works for live performance. I tried to integrate more keyboard playing in this. Soon, I will be getting an old hardware MIDI sequencer that will make the prospect of live performance sound really fun!     mp3 is available from SoundCloud

Hello, I have uploaded a song to youtube called "Flicker." An mp3 has also been posted on my Soundcloud page. This was an experiment in mixing live sound with tape and video. It was also one of the first things I did with the TASCAM Portastudio 424 mkII that I just got (I have also been experimenting with tape looping on it.) So far, I am really enjoying working with analog tape and hope to have chances to do more with it in the future. 

 My next experiment is ready to come out of the laboratory- another free sample pack featuring a doumbek. 

If anyone has a cheap USB powered game controller laying around, you may have been wondering if there was anything interesting to do with it. My goal was to take one and turn it into a viable instrument for performing. Video of it in action at end of post.
