  • Nice one geez top stuff. have you put your max patch out there by any chance?

  • Thanks, I don't have the patch uploaded, but its fairly basic, just some filters, delays, amplitude modulation, tremolo, etc. Most of the load for this setup is on the synthesizer.

  • Did you use any microcontroller (Pic or Arduino) to make this thing? How do you get the info from the photocells to Max? I like your gear!

  • Though I commonly use microcontrollers in my work, there are none in this setup. I get the photocell data into max by a hacked PC game controller which I have replaced the 2 joysticks with photocells. The data is then brought in to max using the "hi" object and decoded from there. There is a good explanation on how to do this in Nic Collins book "Hand Made Electronic Music"

  • wow this is so amazing! Can you give me a quick debreifing on what is behind all that? I'd love to try an attempt at the creation of one.

  • i built that simi-modular synth using mostly circuits found in Nic Collins "hand made electronic music" book. I also have a controller for max/msp that i built out of a PC game controller. and there is a box that amplifies waveforms from my computer to use as control voltages. check out that book, tons of good stuff.
