http://www.freeclyde.com/projects/motm_project/motm_video.html There is a ~1 second break in the middle, be sure to watch it to the end credits :) Good audio of the MOTM-120 in action. Joel's site has all sorts of cool pictures and audio if you snoop a bit. Paul S.

Wow! Although after spending all that $ on a primo cabinet, they could fork out the $ for enough screws to attach the modules. Two per module is just being chintzy, y'knowudimsayin'? I liked the way the lights on the ueg followed the camera (at least until the camera got to the manual button).

> Good audio of the MOTM-120 in action. Speaking of the 120, this is a module that isn't in my system and is on the to-be-discontinued list. Does anyone have any samples of this unit online? I find the ones on the MOTM site to be, uh, uncompelling, but the module seems interesting from a theoretical standpoint. Are there any 120 owners who would like to show me what I'm missing? Thanks-- --Adam

I've modified mine with the Tellun DB-120 and the resistor values all changed for unity gain on the mix output. I use mine as a pseudo- sequencer by quantizing the mix output to drive the VCO. Each of the sub outputs contributes a portion to the sequence. I sometimes use a specific sub output to FM the VCO. http://modularsynthesis.com/samples/ Journey I've also written program for my PSIM to do the same only using non- binary divisors. Same concept. Happy and Delirious are examples I like to use the MOTM-120 because you can just start tweaking knobs until you get a pseudo-sequence you like. It's pretty unpredictable. I rarely use it as a audio sub-divisor. More often I use it as a LFO divisor or as a pseudo-sequencer.

With the recent talk about EQ's and fixed filter banks, I'd thought I would put my pair of Urei 539 Room Equalizers up for sale. Built like a tank, with legendary Urei quality, these 2U graphic EQ's have barrier strips for balanced connections, are in decent cosmetic condition, and work fine. These are 1/3 octave (31 band) EQ's, with an overload LED, adjustable gain, and high pass and low pass filters (6/12 dB, switchable). If you like, I could send you the lousy pictures I took with a cheap camera. Dealers typically sell these for $200. I'll sell them for $100 each, or both for $250. Buyer pays shipping. I'm a "good trader" and all that :) I also have a couple of items up on that auction site: Behringer SNR2000 Denoiser http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190011111471&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:11 Aphex Dominator II Peak Limiter http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190011128761&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:11 Your consideration is appreciated :)

I of course have the MOTM-120R panel with the daughterboard and additional outputs. But you don't need those modifications to get something quite unique, which is the *cross-product modulation*. The original idea came from Electronotes. Paul Schreiber simplified the circuit and made it easy to use in the 120. I did a really neat piece with two MOTM-310 VCOs into the 120 in cross-product mode. It is long, which is why I don't have it on my website. But I intend to be updating my site with a lot more pictures and more music samples, including ones that demonstrate special modules like the 120. I will make a shortened MP3 of that piece. Again, it's the cross-product mode that makes the 120 unique, at least for me. And with the DC coupled output on the modified version, I use it as a sequencer of sorts, too. That is all in addition to the main feature of sub-octave generation. Richard Brewster http://www.pugix.com Adam Schabtach wrote:

Hey Richard - Maybe you could make an exerpt of the piece and MP3 it (ugh) and put it up in the files section. I'd love to hear it!

To save time, I put up the full MP3 on my website. It's 'only' 13MB (about 10 minutes long). http://www.pugix.com/music-samples.htm If you don't see Cross Product, hit your browser refresh button. Richard Mike Marsh wrote:

I describe the patch briefly on my website, but here's more detail. I recreated this patch about a month ago, too, with some success. (I document my patches on large sheets of graph paper, tossed into a pile, and I dug that one out. I have it in front of me now.) The Cross Product patch uses: 2 MOTM-310, MOTM-120, MOTM-410 with OMS-410, MOTM-440, MOTM-390, triple S&H (2 Oakley + MOTM -101), MOTM-820. It's straight-forward, both in the audio and the control paths, with no feedback anywhere. The 310s go to the 120 inputs (A, B) and from the 120 mix output in parallel through the two filters. The final audio is a mix of two 410 outputs: 1 (left) and 3 (right), and the 440 (center). The three sample and holds drive it all. The Oakleys are both clocked by one 390 square wave, each on the opposite clock polarity. The first S&H out cascades to the second S&H input (in addition to the 820 input). The slew limiting feature of the Oakley S&H modules plays an important part in keeping the pitches from varying too far on each clock cycle. The first S&H goes through the 820 lag processor to one 310 VCO 1V/Oct input. The second S&H uses no lag to the second VCO. Since the VCOs are tuned in unison to start (or almost -- I think there is a slight beat), and since the dual S&H cascades the first voltage to the second VCO, the result is that on each new clock they diverge in frequency and then gradually converge again on the second half of the clock cycle, often as lag ends. This would not be so interesting, if it weren't for the cross-product mixing. The MOTM-101 is internally clocked. It controls the both the 820 lag rate and the 410 internal LFO rates. The 440 FM is correlated with the 410 frequencies by means of one of the internal LFOs brought out through the Oakley OMS-410 companion module. That is it. Not a big patch. The devil is in the knob tweaking. There is a good deal of movement control to be done here, but it always retains the character of the MOTM-120 in cross-product mode and the sound of the two MOTM filters.
