Hello all! The Nibbler is s a module about exploring the musicality of counting in binary. and it is now available for order on our website. We have a video overview below And our friend Stazma has one on his channel: It is a CMOS based four bit accumulator (which means it counts from 0 to 15 in binary) with separate gate outputs for each of the bits, an output for the carry signal, and two stepped analog outputs made from adding the bits together. It also has inputs for each bit as well as a built in shift register....

Bries has just uploaded his "extensive playthrough" of the Three Body, and by that we mean a feature film length deep dive on the Three Body with some really nice patches and a few features I'm not sure have been covered anywhere else.  He has done more than a few videos on the Three Body already actually, mostly short and highly musical patch breakdowns which you can find in a playlist here.

So I've been back in Portland for a week plowing through production and prototyping tasks and am already about to leave again, just for a few days to Brooklyn. I will be playing a set at the Murder by Modulation event by New York Modular Society and the Trans Pecos on October 20th with several other fine modularists, then on October 21st and 22nd I will be attending the Brooklyn Synth and Pedal Expo in Greenpoint. For the expo I will have the new modules to demonstrate and I will have a selection of our current modules available for sale....

How did it get to be September already? Well, that means it's time for Knobcon! I (Eric) won't be there but Jay will, he has the Nibbler and Dual Vector Foil to show and all the other modules for sale. The new modules will be there, still no ETA, the modules have been functionally done for a while but I've been chasing my tail doing revisions mostly intended to make them easier to build and also easy to repair. This is your yearly reminder that coming up with an idea is like 5% of the work, making a working prototype...

Hope you are all doing well! I've been doing a lot of travel and events lately, most recently I went to Stockholm to do an in store event at Jam/Escape from Noise, hang out with my friend Dan from DPW, and attend the Sound and Music Computing conference. I think I would like to attend more of the DSP/academic type events, maybe collaborate with some of these organizations a bit outside the synthesizer world? Anyway the next travel I have scheduled is in September to attend the DAFX conference and revel in some math and then soon after that Machina...
