Not to dissuade you from either MOTM or .com, but whatever your criteria I think Blacet is also worthy of consideration. The prices are mid-range (the VCO is $250, between the MOTM and .com), and the features/capabilities of the modules are impressive (ie, the EG-1 is a ADSR with
2005-01-18 by Mike Marsh
John's analysis is very good. The differences for me were the signal-to-noise ratio and the MOTM community. Many folks have made some fine music with the .com synth, but it was not for me. I had a mix of .com and MOTM and was frustrated by the noisiness of the .com, which I sold

Actually, since I'm building them all at the same time now, the partials will be shipped before the remaining assembled. I had been building them one at a time... which was simply insane. This way is going much faster and I can see progress with each step I complete. So, everyone

No, seriously, you should be able to get the thing to sing. Although you have to vary pitch and timing simultaneously. Maybe a "singing" voltmeter? It is also possible to speak aleatoric poetry if you setup a table of words and sentence structures. Use a source of uncertainty to

I just uploaded a SpeakJet voltmeter program. Believe it or not this was a useful program. I used it to 'calibrate' my four front panel CV controls. The linearity of the potentiometers is not perfect so this allows me to characterize what the voltages are at the various tick mark

2005-01-03 by djbrow54
I experimented with the timer registers and finally got an accurate time. I set TCRW to $B0 which should clear the timer on match and divide the main clock by 8. This should clock the counter at 2 MHz. I set GRA to 2000 so that 2MHz/2000 should result in 1 mS interrupts. However,

I was sitting here looking at my latest module which is a conversion of the PAiA MIDI2CV to a MOTM format. I had it left over and thought it would get more use installed in my synth. Then it dawned on me ... I could use this for a PSIM expansion. Mode4 in the PAiA is a MIDI Contr

I have to chime in here... Gary makes some excellent points! I'd also add that after meeting Brice last spring and keeping in contact with him, I can assure you that he's not the kind of guy to sit on his hands (or build any of the many Blacet kits he has awaiting his attention)

Happy Holidays everyone! I know how frustrating it is to wait for hand made - small quantity devices. I wrote a check for $14,000, sent it to Waldorf and waited 9 months for my order to finally be sent, and it arrived in California with a 250v power supply, which meant that it ha

2004-12-19 by Scott E.
I, like Larry, will probably be one of the last to receive one, as it was towards the end of the ordering cycle. I am content to wait as I believe Brice to be sincere in his efforts to deliver these modules. Brice: Sorry to hear of your troubles. Hope they work out soon. Regards,
2004-12-18 by djbrow54
The PSIM program for the Expressionmate increments at about 13 mV. Since each bit is 10.66/4095 or 2.6 mV, this is a value of 5. This never made sense to me so I decided to do some digging. The Expressionmate outputs 14 bits of pitchbend data. I divide this by 4 to convert to 12
2004-12-18 by Mike Marsh
All I can say is that I got mine early on and it is very well built and works as advertised. And then some - it IS a wonderful module. If Brice would deliver the rest I'm sure everyone would be thrilled with the results. Mike --- In SynthModules@yahoogroups.com, _______ pH wrote:

Thanks, for the update Brice. I still have a couple questions. With such longer delays and your " known" e-mail problems, why not at the very least send out an e-mail to all that paid notifying them of the situation. And, I would expect also an option of a refund or to keep waiti

I have paid for my PSIM-1, AND I have the Stooge panel to go with it. Complete radio silence from Brice does not help the X-mas spirit. I'm with Stooge on this one. A bit of inside scoop of what is causing the delay is the right thing for everybody to hear at this point. Tobias E

Everyone... yes, I'm doing my best. I'll expand on that statement. The delays in shipping have nothing to do with problems in manufacturing, or parts (everything is here... no problems with that), or anything else that has to do with the modules themselves. Since I started the PS

You hit it on the head, Larry. I'm guilty of being too nice for too long. I am completely fried on the "I'm doing my best...soon" answer. Searching through the forum list, this pretty much sums up Brice's answers. It's NOT an answer, at this point-- It's meaningless. And Brice's
