    I’m so happy that dude gets to do what he loves doing cos he’s a legit wizard. He has been such a wealth of knowledge in my modular synth journey (addiction)

        Sam “Look Mum No Computer” Battle. Check out his YouTube channel. I’m pretty sure he has a video that explains his whole modular setup.

    Just here to say this guy rules. He brings that diy/punk ethos to electronic music, makes a bunch of cool projects, and runs a museum of cool gadgets and curiosities. Seems pretty chill too!

      Where is the computer? All his stuff is analog circuits. While under certain definitions that is a computer, by most it is not.

      He has a whole YouTube channel all about this and it’s well worth a watch.

      I find it amazing he did not only perform the song live, but absolutely impromptu. They had to look up the lyrics for him and yet the song was awesome.

        Of course he doesn’t have an actual PC running Windows, masOS or Linux but he absolutely has some digital circuitry in his rig, and some of it probably fit the normal definition of a computer (a cpu with some ram running a program saved in memory).

        That LCD for example… analog lcd drivers just don’t exist.

          Calling Analog synths and MIDI cables ‘a computer’ is like referring to sending an email as ‘sending a letter’.
