Mon, 26 February 2007  'Twas brillig and the mome raths were messin' with one of c-dub's songs using x0x 321 (the only x0xb0x with its OWN myspace page!) It's got a mod that makes it go "w00p w00p" and a mod that makes it go "bwaaaaaaaaa." Mome rath is single-handedly bringing techno back to Columbus Ohio, god bless 'em!

Sat, 24 February 2007  Ceedub & x0xb0x #86 make tight techno that sounds like "A Roland x0x lovefest."Its the kinda stuff that makes all the time I spend on the phone finding 2SC2291's completely worthwhile. There's more to listen to at the acid komplex band page Comments[1] |

Sat, 17 February 2007 REwire tests out his new toy! I bought my XOXBOX used off of a guy on the Analogue Heaven list after my 303 took a dump and been in repair. I can't compare them side by side but love the fact that this has midi. I went nuts and just played it all over the place, multitracked, no Eq and some delay only on lead lines. only non XOX are drum samples. I tried to fill the track as wide as possible using saws only as low DnB type lines and pulse for everything else. About the Resonance - I cranked the power trimpot to max to get those highs but that kinda ruins the lower sounds and response so it's back and forth on different parts.

Sat, 17 February 2007  A beast of a machine, this is what happens when controlvoltage unleashes full m0ddage power on a x0x!
List of mods:
Internal: bass boost mod; carefully-selected transistors in key places (not a mod, but a good idea);adjustable amount of resonance boost on accent (trim pot on underside of mainboard). Also increased env. amount range, goes down to zero and up to 3x normal maximum amount. I/O mods: CV outputs from the sequencer for Pitch and Gate (same as stock, now with 1/4" jacks), also Accent and Slide gate-CVs. CV Inputs for Gate, Accent, Slide, Pitch, and Filter Cutoff. New audio I/O is on a 1/4" stereo jack providing VCO out/VCF in, for a pre-filter effects loop or clean external audio into the filter/VCA. See my thread in x0xm0dz for more details. VCF input goes well with the "gate always-on" switch I added. Panel/control mods: Devilfish-esque VCO-to-Filter overdrive; Accent duration control knob. VCO->VCF FM, has FM amount knob and FM waveform selector switch; Resonance Boost switch, with trimmer for setting boost amount Gate always on switch - VCA wide open with infinite sustain. Good for bubbling liquid legato lines or external filter processing. Filter falls to minimum unless you are using my envelope mutator, or hit the: Momentary Gate-Retrigger button; this fires off the main envelope generator when pressed, so you can inject some variety into always-on lines or just goose the sequence when you want. momentary Accent-on button, similar principle as above, fire an Accent on demand. Envelope Mutator - my own little street-style RC envelope circuit, takes in a +5V pulse and bleeds it to ground thru a variable resistance. This is then applied to filter cutoff, where it interacts with all the other filter mods to create delicious new flavors of groove. The source is selectable between Gate (all notes trigger the env mutator), Accent, and Slide triggers via a miniature 3pos. rotary switch; there is a mutation on/off switch, a Mutation Duration knob, variable between ~5 milliseconds and 5 seconds, and I am about to add a Mutation Amount knob for added subtlety. Right now it is either off or full-on. Comments[1] |
