Congratulations! I remember when you were first starting on the forum on the Arp Odyssey VCO thread - really glad to you see you get them built.

Hi all,

Well I've been wanting to announce this project for a while... here's a couple clips from the modular video synthesizer I've been working on with another forum member for the past year and a half now. We'll be releasing modules in EuroRack format soon. I won't flood you with details since that will all be coming soon elsewhere, but since my exploration into video synth circuits started here, I thought I would post. The pic is a current prototype of 3 of the modules (sync gen, mixer, rgb encoder.) We have probably a dozen modules we're working on right now. The clips are tests of the window comparator module used to generate an amplitude based key from external video.

http://vimeo.com/7301019
http://vimeo.com/7279164

Please PM me or start a thread if you have questions because I don't want to clutter the build pics thread!

Sincerely,
Lars

New panel for my XR VCO. Hopefully have some other stuff to show soon. I made and labeled the panel myself and I'm pretty happy with it.

Hi Teknik,

Whats a VCFS? Also, I've been admiring your modules for a while, but I've never seen a shot of them all together, which would be cool...

I just finished this today. It's been a couple months in the making and would not have been possible without the generous help of everyone here.
Thanks!

I decided to go with a single panel design similar to an ARP 2600 or Macbeth M5. The graphics are a mix of different elements from different manufacturers.

I'm planning a sequencer cabinet to sit on top and eventually two smaller cabinets full of individual modules on either side. Roland 700 style.

I've been documenting my progress on a blog.. http://dronegoat.blogspot.com/

Now to figure out how to use it..

Holy Shit! That's the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Brilliant graphics and logical layouts and I love the idea of using banana couplers for the normalized connections instead of switching jacks.

Amazing work! Really inspiring!

How did you do the panel? Is it screenprinted?
