By adding together sinusoids we can begin to create interesting synthethic timbres. Well, more interesting than plain sine waves. I’ve included examples of how to do this in PD and SuperCollider. I attempted to do this in both languages to get a … Continue reading →

Today I’ve been making some stepper motor drivers for a mini PCB mill that I want to make some time in the future. It would of cause be much easier to go out and buy some off-the-shelf drivers – but no where near as fun.So these are the spec’s I decide… Continue reading →

A while back I did a “midi conversion” of a couple of Stylophones (The original analog model). I did this by removing the Stylophone electronics and leaving just the stylus, keyboard and resistor ladder. Using the keyboard as a voltage divider its then… Continue reading →
