SynthModules

Hey there,

I just wanted post a few random thoughts in the wake of AHMW and the
receipt of my PSIM-1.

First, AHMW was a blast. I had a great time talking with everyone and particularly
with Brice. I also thought that one of the high points of the gathering was getting
to interface the equipment in various strange ways. I think that next year, everyone
who brings equipment, should put in a little more effort and bring along things like
really long cables and devices that allow their strange noise makers to speak different
languages (I know that, next year, I will this).

Sunday I had to get some sleep and prepare for a gig that night, so I didn't have
a lot of time to play with my new toys (a PSIM-1 and a pair of Wiard JAG modules).
I did however get a chance to load up a couple of the PSIM-1 programs. It will
take me a while just to see what other people have done (I really like Brice's sample
and hold, and Woody's sample and hold/shift register/quantizer) before I start my
own mad scientist routine (but I'll get there, at least I don't have a programming
learning curve to overcome).

The SpeakJet applications I saw/heard were also fantastic. I suspect that I will need
babble box functionality in the near future.
