BABY TEST EQUIPMENT - Making Music With Vintage Science Education Sets -

[@ozzelot3349]

The two oscillators are doing WHAT to each other? Well, it is a Valentine's Day Special!

[@Hainbach]

Loved playing with these boxes, happy to see them again on video!

[@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER]

I tried to find the vids from when you came! Couldn't find em. Was thinking I imagined it haha

[@Hainbach]

@@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTERthink it was on the phone, a short or something

[@NicStage]

First thing I thought when he was describing them: Hainbach would have had troubles not playing with those if he knew they were around. haha.

[@CashMattock]

Time for @hainbach to come back👍👍

[@blackmoofou6385]

These are great, super cool find!

[@1pcfred]

Sam has now successfully communicated with beings from the 9th dimension.

[@fus132]

The machine god almost broke through

[@GVCarroll71]

He’s with the Old Gods now.

[@adadinthelifeofacyclist]

I reckon he contacted Petr Valek there

[@DanyAndersenccn]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@dyscotopia]

True dat. These are exactly the sounds you hear right after you fill your lungs with smokeable toad venom and right before your identity is obliterated into an infinitude of diaphonous space dust

[@MS-Patriot2]

Genius and madness, only a few atoms apart. Love him!

[@NicStage]

This is a good setup for harsh noise. Love the chaos of it!

[@rambles8346]

I can imagine Heinbach anxiously watching this video with his brain churning out reasons he has to try this setup. You guys are wizards and it's awesome.

[@Dudleymiddleton]

It's very relaxing to listen to..

[@neuzethmusic131]

😂

[@justawatchin2]

15:21 is my favorite part, all those quiet shuffles in the background.

[@richardneale246]

This is where Kraftwerk meets Throbbing Gristle !!!! Brilliant stuff Sam.

[@Maddogonguitar]

would that be Throbwerk or Kraftgristle ?

[@richardneale246]

😂😂@@Maddogonguitar

[@MissMerc]

As a Noise musician, I'm in love!

[@KelvinHemas]

That’s the most beautiful boxes I’ve seen you build. Some interesting and useful sounds inbetween the noises there as well.

[@katheudo]

My favorite madman, this was a blast to watch

[@curtishoffmann6956]

External speakerage. Can NOT *EVER* have TOO *MUCH* speakerage! MORE speakers!

[@padders1068]

Sam, great work sir! Warning mad genius at work 🙂🙂😎🤓❤ 4:02 and again later " 2 oscillators ended up beating off each other " - did anyone else laugh or is that just my mind🤭🤭

[@PeterJnicol]

I laughed at that. But when the full madness was in flight, wires everywhere, ridiculous modules plugged together with happy abandon and the furious knob twiddling and the craziest music - well, you could not get the smile from my face. Glorious in it's devoted and industrious eccentricity.

[@tacmonkey]

I was just a bit surprised Sam was so subtle about it and moved on, not dwelling or elaborating on the obvious dirty joke. Almost wary he matured a wee bit.. but more likely just exited to move along with the project.

[@alexanderkeys1038]

Those VCO's work at 1.28 MHz, which is in the medium-wave broadcasting band, so if you use two or more, with a metre or so of wire on the outputs to work as aerials, they would produce a heterodyne sound on an AM radio ( i.e. the AM detector in the radio produces an output audio frequency that is the difference between the two or more radio-frequency waves). Also the 'double-balanced modulator' does the same function as the 'ring modulator' on analogue synthesisers.

[@iansimpson9351]

Brilliant, what a noise and all those modules, wirers, plugs and sockets and you never let the smoke out of any of them.

[@niallmacdonald2710]

You know when you've been Hainbach'd.

[@Garethduffy707]

I love these videos, proper synth scientist and incredibly interesting

[@ZebraandDonkey]

Looks like fun.

[@peterwhitehouse]

Loving the R2D2 disco feel - almost an Autechre feel

[@RandomMakingEncounters]

You’re not the only one with Really Useful Boxes filled with really great ideas waiting for their time to shine! Love the vids!

[@crunchyfrog555]

I vaguely remember seeing some of these units back when I stidied audio engeering at uni in the early 1990s (or at least something very similar). I can't remember using them though as being RF related, I doubt we'd have done anything with them. But I've always LOVED those cases. There's something really tidy and functional about them.

[@glebpalamarchuk9087]

That is the first time i see a sequencer like that. Really makes itself unpredictable!

[@ALehrer-s8f]

sweetness. lovely. fantastic, more please. thank you!

[@PeterJnicol]

This is the greatest, and maddest thing I have ever seen.

[@THETBRETT]

those new boxes look so clean. love them

[@EdibleBetty]

Fantastic sounds! That blue/beige is still my favorite color combination, ever since getting a few Voice of Saturn modules way back.

[@repeat_defender]

oh yes these sound amazing! i can’t imagine coming up with this stuff, my brain just doesn’t understand electronics, but man i love watching you in your element building and playing with these wonderful creations.

[@KristofferEngdahl]

This video was great fun! Interesting too. Thanks Sam!

[@dedicatedspuddler7641]

This is really great stuff! Keep up the explorations!

[@soundhog09]

Christ all-effing-mighty, this is fantastic stuff. A full long playing record, please.

[@2old4gamez]

Yes!

[@chrishahn3834]

Man, I wish I were capable of stuff like this. Great work, Sam. :D

[@jussiriissanen]

Part II: absolute yes! Mad sounds!

[@nigelprice4799]

...5:51...I got a little bit carried away......hahaha!.....which is precisely why we watch you.......from a safe distance, of course!

[@AM-ui9mc]

Look (mumnocomputer), that is a gorgeous synth you built!

[@jurjenbos228]

Many medical devices can also been seen as "baby test equipment".

[@AlexKrippner]

4:02 two oscillators ended up what!? Great vid

[@martindooley4439]

Awesome just to see the creative juices and enthusiasm. The local news education authority needs you to start visiting schools in the local area. Inspiration for the next generation

[@richardallen1629]

Great to watch a gleeful Sam discovering new noises in full effect!

[@patrickp.1998]

I've seen amlost everything you've ever built ,but this one is for me the "King of the hill" 😜👍 ,thank you Sam❤

[@doctorc-ton1099]

This was some madness right there, like an "Atari Junk synth" just for noise artists. This was wild in the best way possible.

[@projekt6_official]

"Two oscillators ended up beating off each other" LOL Most of the device names seemed completely made up. "Data Clock... Regeneration" "Double Balanced... Modulator" "Data Format" Haha 11:12 - that face! Super fascinating video, thanks for sharing!

[@Deuphus]

"Two oscillators ended up beating off each other" Heterodyning.

[@datashat]

Amazing werk once again! Total f***ing chaos I love it

[@VanWinger]

That thing sounds like the sound out of an arcade machine from 1982

[@MirlitronOne]

You could modulate one of the 1.28 MHz VCOs with audio, and listen to the result on an MW radio nearby...

[@DivKid]

Love the ~15 minute mark chaos!

[@oddballno3-builds780]

something else you can do with those vco's hook them out to VGA computer monitors on the RGB lines.. I'd be interested to see what all those filters would do on the visual output. 1-2mhz fm modulated with about 2khz makes some really interesting patterns. and um what did the oscillators do? :D

[@thx1138abc1]

Loving the chaos, Sam. Blowing us all away. 😊👍

[@s90210h]

a knas ekdahl moisturizer spring reverb would both look great and sound amazing with this

[@loganwhitworth6274]

i love to see Sam becoming a Noise musician, its a great genre to be in trust me

[@AA-ui6sy]

You sonofab... I just finished drawing up my own 40106-based project and now this crazy gunk makes it look like child's play. I'd ask you how much it'd take for you to part with this amazing setup but I can see the chances of you getting bored with it anytime in the next 100 years are slim to none.

[@StellarWorks2023]

What marvelous mayhem ... more pleez 👍🏾

[@BirkB1]

Fantastic sounds 😄

[@d00dEEE]

Sam, when will you release the full length version of "Two Errors, Uncorrectable?"

[@zugel]

Really enjoyed seeing this video. Thanks

[@2old4gamez]

Loved it!

[@richmanricho]

Couple of bits in the sound were quite nifty. There was a bit around 14:10 that started to sound like old PC speaker sound from 8-bit games

[@Elektronijaenis]

I quess that setup would be very suitable for makeing music in the spirit of Dogma00 manifesto. Lovely!

[@draculusdinosqueezer6346]

I built a sequencer for my MS10 (40 years ago!) using a 4017 decade counter driven by a 555. It was a great while it lasted but the chip failed as I think the synth was pulling too much current off it straight into the control voltage input. Probably should have provided a transistor output stage.

[@TotallyNuss]

Those look to be really useful boxes.

[@junglistmassive4609]

Потрясающе! Спасибо старичек. Очень интересные шумовые эффекты вышли!

[@crunchyfrog555]

I'm thinking I might have to make a binary based sequencer for my AE modular. I envision that could be really useful for sequencing drums. Anywho, I bet Hainbach is drooling over these.

[@maartendb8107]

" The difference between sound art and noise is institutional funding"

[@spookyfm4879]

What glorious noise!

[@DetroitMicroSound]

Many little sound gems in all that. 👍👍

[@OIP_1]

when i read the title i thought it was going to be about equipment for testing babies

[@GrandmastaPheezy]

You are living the dream, a quite mad dream...

[@mark6302]

atari noise box sounds awesome

[@fortheloveofnoise]

I am digging those lower frequency tones.

[@Brantdrangus8489]

That was beautiful ❤

[@thirstyCactus]

Heinbach knows your location!

[@Dave-lq9hf]

In this video Sam successfully designs and builds his own mind. 😅

[@OrbvsTomarvm]

congratulations, you managed to compose the soundtrack of my spectrum 48k loading in manic miner in 1982 😂

[@stubrakon9683]

Love this stuff! Awesome 🤘😀😎👍

[@sesa2984]

Hello. I recently found a freely recorded electronics course on youtube and ordered the associated electronics textbook, because I have been wanting to build/fix my own amps for a long while as a hobby/possible part 2 career path. I have also become interested in building synths and effects ( also as a possible side venture) thanks in part to your videos. I took it as a sign today when, in the donation bin of the food pantry/thrift store I work at, a fishing tackle box appeared in the donation bin. Upon opening it, I found it was full of wire strippers, connectors, bread boards, leds, resistors, mysterious parts AND a brand new Arduino still in the box! I mean, thank you magical cornucopia of universal support! I'd be very appreciative if you could recommend a place to start with the arduino. Maybe a few music related project ideas that could be first projects. It says UNO on it. I'll leave it up to your imagination as I'm interested in quite alot. (Note: I have a stable of guitar effects racks and pedals, so I could easily manipulate any tones generated. But other project ideas are welcome too.) Cheers Peace

[@stefanoxxxaz]

what do you think of the Mutronics Mutator?

[@FoundationStepper]

this video is a good answer to all hainbachs videos - good sound is subjective haha

[@klang-bild-kontinuum6267]

Maybe you should Go for videosynthesis with the oscillators, they should make vertical bars…

[@KeritechElectronics]

Looks like some cool gear - and everything can be made a synth. We are the Borg, your electronics will be assimmilated, resistance is futile. It may even sound like Merzbow fiddling with a C64.

[@hesspet]

Lunettacalypse :-) back to the good ol days

[@AIJenkins]

14:15 Electronic Atrial Fibrillation

[@jamesh5460]

Mad music scientist!

[@instasquid]

Time to start a spinoff act: Look Mum Noise Computer

[@Soundbrigade]

I am bit tired, so I will go to bed and spend a few minutes with cool stuff I printed out today. One of these cool stuffs is an article in Practical Electronics describing the PERCUSSION MICROSYNTH (PEJune, July '83). Has this piece of fun stuff ever made its way into the LMNC museum?

[@robriki2]

Educational feedback device sounds like fun and noisy school

[@okinawa1312]

Fuck Awesome! The sequencer is the shit.

[@BudoReflex]

AGI is going to start talking out that set up soon…

[@Mia1Goth]

sounds very nice

[@raskaskoneisto]

Gorgeous

[@brianainslie754]

It's so good sam!

[@tomw86]

Looks like it’s meant to be used to simulate radios working. At about 1MHz you could make your own AM medium wave radio station with this kit.

[@apostatatheprovost3041]

Please Sam, make more Vidz of these little Noise Machines. This is fu**in Crazy.❤✌️

[@benjaminaustnesnarum3900]

16:25 pretty much what you hear at "raves" these days

[@AIJenkins]

16:11 Hey Sam, can you pull the wires and set that up again using just the sound? 😅

[@Simple_But_Expensive]

By the end it sounded like the soundtrack from a real bad late night science fiction movie from the 70’s. Brings back memories: kick back at 2 am Saturday morning, pop a beer, light one up, break out a bucket of Kentucky Fried, and tune in to the independent tv station that plays the worst movies nobody ever heard of. Life at its best!

[@LordFawful13]

man several of those configurations could easily be turned into full tracks with a little work post-process!

[@jazmanaut]

Fantastic sounding!

[@monistratnic]

Basically a Bastl Bitranger that discovered the Infinity stones.

[@tomahzo]

This is the kind of wacky content I come to LMNC for ;D ;D

[@tmzilla]

Feedback? I have one of their 17 inch "LANscope" oscilloscopes. I wonder if they are meant to plugged into each other.
