DNA Sequencer
A useful tool to stream DNA sequences as midi notes
Use genome data as base for your compositions or live improvisations. Check “Instructions.rtf” inside the archive. A table of Ostreococcus virus Os V5, controlling Beatslicer, is provided as example. The mp3 demo shows an extensive use of this ensemble as notes source for more mangling in Ableton Live.
In this track bassline, distant echoed guitars and swinging percussions are all generated by the same virus genome.

L.C. Transient Maker VST
A simple free VST transient shaper to be used as insert effect to punch yout drumkits.
Circuit Bent Boss DS-2
This bent gives you the opportunity to change your old Boss DS-2 Turbo Distortion from an old pedal to Pure Evil.
You’ll need:
* Jumper wires
* 100K Linear pot
* SPST Switches (On/Off)
WARNING: This bent will permanently change your pedal sound. There is no bypass here.
First of all, open your Boss DS-2 and pull out the PCB paying attention to the wires inside the box. Now you can see both “Input” and “Remote” jack sockets. If you want to put a knob inside the box, you can remove the “Remote” socket to free space. As you can see, there are two black cables soldered to a “Remote” socket plug and one of them goes to the main switch. Remove the “Remote” socket and solder the long black cable to the main switch. Now you can fit the pot into the free hole.
Pull out the main switch while pushing the two little side “levers”. Let your SPST switch cables passing through the same path as main switch cables. Now you’re ready to solder. Using the “PCB Side” image as reference, do the following steps:
Solder one switch wire to the point marked as A and join the remaining cable to one of two lateral pot cables (see point B on the picture). Solder the center pot cable to the point marked as D and the last cable to the C point.
Solder a jumper wire between the two blue points as shown in reference picture. Now you can close your pedal and enjoy.
Further Developments
There are other interesting point around D marker. The upper blue point seems to be the signal output and can be joint with the area to the left of C point for feedback loops. Try it using a switched pot in order to activate the feedback and setting the amount. The bottom blue point seems to be into the filter section and this area can provide other interesting timbres. I suggest you to keep out from the yellow area, especially from the right side and the top power socket.

NashDrive
A nice and creamy overdrive made using a formula found on some paper about gravity studies that sounds great as waveshaper: 1/2(3 n^3 + 7 n^2 + 11n) + (2n+1).

Helix – Genetic Drum Machine
How about using life behaviour to make music? Helix is one of answers, a very special drum machine made featuring genetic crossing over algorithm. The eight samples are triggered by childrens. Each couple of children is generated by single point crossing over of two parents chosen in the Couple macro. As bonus, a map full of circuit bent samples from my incoming library for Reason and Kontakt. Feel free to use’em on your songs. The drums on demo below is made using Helix.

Heavy Motion Machine
An ensemble useful both as generator (like an Atari Punk Console) or sound mangler. Each group of 2 oscillators is connected to a Logic Gates Group. The result of both blocks is connected to another Logic Gates group and its output is your main sound and controller for the envelope generator. No external effects has been used for the audio demo. All reverbs, delays and phasers you’ll notice are generated by the Comb filter.
Features:
- 4 Square oscillators. Each couple is connected to a Logic Gate section.
- 3 Logic Gate Sections with inverters. Select different combination for your “bit” amusement.
- Comb Filter.
- Envelope Generator to control filter and gate. EG is triggered by Operators mix.
- Gate section controlled by Operators or Envelope Generator.
