Hi all,
This is my contest entry for this year's Moogfest Circuit Bending contest. The contest is to build a circuit bent sampler and sample the Google Bob Moog 78th birthday synth doodle.
My piece is three 10 second voice memo recorder modules built into one unit, modded with touch points, one shot / momentary switches and pitch control knobs and with the option to run it all through a motion controlled ring modulator effect. This was NOT an quick and easy task to say the least. I know the video is REALLY long, but I was recording everything anyway... why not show the process. Feel free to use the links above to jump to the demos or another specific part of the video.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy seeing the GoogaMooga in action as much as I enjoyed building it. Also, be sure to check out my other videos and website http://www.drBlankenstein.com ;) Wish me luck!
~Drew Blanke (Dr. Blankenstein)
