//// pictures of our sound-making machines ////

[Lemmy]

Sound lab with some added mods - fine tuning, midi features, S&H, portamento, osc mod. I etched the PCBs myself too, which is not something I would willingly do now, but… good learning experience.

New computer with its glowy fans. I’m spending the night (and no doubt some of tomorrow, and a sporadic trickle of forgotten utilities as need arises) making it properly mine instead of Microsoft’s.

Had a nice sun beam pass through while I was working on a patch this morning.

For your health!

[GoneCaving]

All set up for a few days of music making in Palmela, Portugal.

New computer with its glowy fans

I always forget that my desktop has LEDs that light up the fans as the clear side of the box is placed against a wall…

[Starthief]

Yeah, it seems a bit funny to me that the front and top of this case – the parts of it visible from a normal angle – are a boring white steel monolith. Meanwhile the big window and lights mostly illuminate piles of dog hair under my desk and cast weird shadows on the wall behind it.

I got one of these cube cases from Thermaltake when I built my computer, mainly because I like the shape, but an added bonus turned out to be that you can swap all the panels around and put the window on either side or the top.

[Condor]

Yes i would love some help compiling to run this on my zero witch is kinda collecting dust :)))
Any help would be appreciated

Love seeing all these amazing machines. I only have my Microbrute, he may not be much but his name is Gary and I love him.

(Other people name their synths, right?..)

[Simeon]

I must admit… nope… never named a synth. My double bass is called “Bertha”, but only because my bandmates named her. As for the synths… nope.

(Other people name their synths, right?..)

I personally have not but thats a great idea!

[Calytrix]

My modular is named Abigail

[zuliani]

My modular synth is named “Birdie.” You’re not alone.

[LLK]

Actually Gary is way better than “Microbrute” (Arturia’s naming choices do push us musicians to rename our synths more often than not !)

[fjna]

Dictaphone, called Maya and a microcassette recorder, called Jozef.

[Starthief]

Microbrutes have a lot of personality, so it kinda feels right to name them. I haven’t named mine, but now I kind of want to.

My modular is the kind of impersonal “Synth Farm 3.0+” One of my spouse’s hobbies is raising neocaridina shrimp, so I figured, she has her shrimp farm and I have my synth farm. But when I told her that, she explained that it’s not a farm, it’s “The Shrimpire.”
