C#4 progress

I have made a start on the woodwork.
The Trogotronic has arrived. It is a Thing of Beauty. And nice instructions: I'll post a copy. The box states THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS, which is far more encouraging than Eric Barbour's Your music still sucks on the box of the Metasonix R54 (I have the  Mark I, but that page is no longer on their site). I expect the two modules will look very pretty glowing side-by-side.
Anyway, due to pick up the power supply from Maplin tomorrow.
I'll try it in the Happy Endings while Case #4 is under construction.

The Schneiders order is waiting for a delivery and should ship in early January.

And GAK are waiting for more Oranges.

I'm getting a new room in which to deploy the wurble-bleeps, probably on the Rietveld desk.

Happy Endings

The kit arrived today from SchneidersBuero. It took me three attempts to get the rails the right way round (I imagine that not many would find two incorrect ways to assemble it, but so it goes). Once understood it is nicely done. The initial load will be all the random note generators to play in contrast with the SoU in the Dream Machine, Wogglebug, Noisering and Heisenberg. Instruction manuals to follow.
I also plan to build a Mondrianesque wooden surround.

Happy Endings
Remarkably, the Pittsburgh Outs arrived from Australia on Tuesday - 7 days from order.
Thanks to Rhythm Active.
I have ordered Schneidersbuero's house version of the TipTop Happy Endings. I wonder if that will be quicker than the PO from RA.


Some lovely designs from goike here. But don't forget Ross.

Plans

I have enjoyed the build part of the project and will make one or two more, perhaps another set of wooden rails and one with proper metal ones. I have been looking at camera cases on ebay, but there is a danger of buying an unsatisfactory,  flimsy product and I might wait for a camera fair (September 16th).

In the meantime, Ross Lamond is selling TipTop Happy Endings, which would be a useful addition.
