Molecule Synth news and pictures

Good to see more features coming along to molecule synth. Looks like there’s plenty to look forward to in the not too distant future, and new features that are going to make it easier to interface with other hardware.

More Molecule

I posted the other day about an idea I’d had for a patch sheet for the molecule synth. Well I wasn’t entirely happy with the idea and decided to change it to make it more usable. I hope to have a version all sorted by the end of the week all things being equal.

The new version makes it a lot easier to use and work with and I plan to post it up to the Molecule synth forums too.

Something for the molecule

Slide1

I’ve started making this. It’s a sort of patch sheet for the molecule synth. A way of recording ideas in advance of trying them, or committing stuff that works to paper so you can make it work again. Once it’s finished I’ll post a PDF of it for anyone who wants to use it.

Paper models, small synths and Foldify

I’ve been meaning to cut this out and see what it actually looks like but I haven’t gotten to it as yet. I like the idea of paper model synths, and whilst foldify is an excellent app for general making of paper models it isn’t as good for synths. Really it just needs one or two templates to deal with keyboards and it would be amazing.

I hope the people at Foldify listen up.

Restoring my CZ101

It’s fair to say that the CZ101 I got the other day was in a poor state. In fact it was filthy. Having cleared it up and I found that it still worked after all these years. Even though it’s only a half sized keyboard and it’s got no velocity sensing, it’s still a nice bit of hardware.

Organising molecule

With some of the modules in my molecule synth there are multiple inputs but none of them are labelled, so I thought I’d label mine up to make it easier to use. This is actually twice as much fun as I get to use a label machine too.

The only downside is that I can’t get the code for the MIDI module to load. I’m sure it’ll get sorted soon enough though.
