 Coolness: 44530 | Wednesday May 17th, Montreal
Pharmacie Esperanza 5490 St-Laurent (at the corner of St-Viateur) Junk Archivist 6955 presents his latest project: 8 Nintendo Famicoms tethered to a modded Roland TR-606 drum machine. Using the synthesized percussive sounds found in a handful of Famicom/NES games, his project featues familiar sound effects sequenced together to form a musical junkbot of lo-fi proportions. This is an exercise in repurposing/reusing/reinventing the old into new again. Additionally, an exercise in inefficiency and stupidity. [ www.robotandproud.com ] |

 Coolness: 150715 | This sounds pretty interesting and inovative.
I program drum patterns on the TR-606 drum machine (4). Rather than having it producing drum sounds, I've modded it to output 5v pulses. There are a total of 6 different pulse "channels". Each channel is connected to a famicom (1) via the external trigger unit (2). Those units convert the pulse data into famicom controller data.
As for the famicoms, each one is running a "sound test". Certain games have hidden sound test modes. Basically, all this gear lets me trigger different sound effects in a rhythmic pattern. To change sounds, and trigger sounds manually, i use the controller box (3). all audio outputs go to the mixer (6). distortion and delay effects are added through the effects loop (5). Read up more.
