Week eight patch of the week challenge. This week we make a Morphagene-centered patch that uses my take on the Make Noise, Tape and Microsound Music Machine.
First, an introduction to Rob Hordijk's mighty Benjolin! Then we delve into the wild Benjolin self patch that we created for week 6.

Patch a week continues! Adding some rhythmic and harmonic elements to our patch along with a few new controls to get it ready to turn it into a song.
New Album Out Now!
Two videos in one! We start with a short intro to generative sequencing for patch 3, then move on to add some effects and a few new controls in patch 4.
A great video (not by me) on how to use the Copiermaschine app in Ornament and Crime: https://youtu.be/i8w7XBsKA7g
Black Friday sales (and the Xmas gifts they supply) are right around the corner, so let's look at some synthesizers you might want to buy! This week, we look at the Arturia MiniFreak V. We'll do a fairly thorogh tour, then discuss topics like how does it compare to the MicroFreak, the V collection as a whole, etc.
Please feel free to ask any questions you have in chat and I will do my best to answer them.

The coin acceptor is an (LK 100B) and there is an EG starts usb encoder in there.
I'm watching jstest --event /dev/input/js0 in a terminal which is detecting when a button gets pressed by the circuit trigged by the coin insertion.
Second patch of 52 in my weekly patch challenge. This week we take last week's patch and fancy it up. The results are pretty cool and are getting in the neighborhood of something I would actually make and use for myself.
I built a circuit using a voltage divider to drop the 5v supply from an EG start usb arcade controller board to 2V to drive a PC817 optoisolator to open a connection to 'press' a button on the EG start which is assigned to 'insert coin' on visual pinball x.
