Ian: any updates on possible availability of PCBs from either yourself or Laurie? i've got a complete collection so far...

This isn't quite a demo, but recently Madcap Labs and I recorded a long improvisation using Chaotica and the TGTS&H as the primary sources of CV. I chopped up the stereo mix and layered the sections to create this.

Thanks for the response! While arranging this piece, I discovered how much I enjoy hearing multiple simultaneous time scales of chaotic oscillation. I'm going to explore this further by recording the outputs with my two Modcan CV Recorders.

Awesome module I would be down for a MU version in a heartbeat!

Thanks for posting this! The Chaotica seems like a bottomless source of awesome - I'm very much looking forward to having the Euro module in my system, and (eventually) to understanding a little bit about how it works :-)

This is more like a demo. The outputs were recorded to two Modcan CV Recorders. The recorders controlled delay time, regeneration and mix of the Modcan Digital Delay as well as rate, damping and gain of Chaotica, which determined pitch, timing and pan position. The rest of the patch consisted of a cross-modulated Buchla 258 clone, a Makenoise Optomix and a Buchla 207-based panning mixer.

Lovely demo, Thermionic. If I didn't already want one, I sure would now.

So - here's a demo of my chaotica with the rate cranked up into the audio range. X and Y are used as audio outputs. I've got a couple of triangle LFOs driving rate and gain, and Z is being processed with a DUSG to create an envelope. Most of the video is 'single eye' and the 'wild' switch is off most of the time. And of course there's a big old delay on the output. This whole demo is musically useless, but there are some pretty crazy things going on here. You can occasionally here sounds like dogs, pigs, and ducks, and of course some whales swim by from time to time....

Thanks for reminding me to explore the audio range. I've barely touched it. I'll see what I can come up with.

ok, so how do all these differ?
Chaotica, Jerkster, double well, and the SnazzyFX Dreamboat?
Are any similar? what's in common?
I have and love the ChaQuo and Dreamboat.
thanks!
I don't think I need all but what overlap and important differences are there?

Thanks Ian!
So is the double well completely different from the Jerkster?
thanks!

I'm just hoping the dreamboat isn't ripped from Ian's work, I kinda felt that vibe before. The only thing to dislike about the ChaQuo is the size, and sounds like it should've been built with 10 turn pots.(yes?)
Was about to build a Jerkster, but think I'll wait for the Chaotica. I wouldn't care but out of space.
