Ciat-Lonbarde Cafe Quantum Looping Delay + Synthesizer

This listing is for a Cafe Quantum from Ciat-Lonbarde, a dual digital delay and sampler instrument with integrated chaotic oscillator network.

From Peter B:

Intel inside: an esp_cafe running open source so you can write WETF you want in weirdness, or a web browser, smartphone synth, Star Trek filter or Bluetooth streaming (ESP32-A2DP)

Intel inside: The esp_cafe pairs an Analog Devices audio Interface for buttery twelve bit decimal Megahertz operation, with a current-mode Norton amplifier for classic analog sound.

Line Drivers: The quantum_experiment is hybrid, using Nortons for the critical duties: VCO, VCF, and VCA, and adds quality line driver amplifiers to drive the quantization features.

Clara’s Question: To Lev, please make me a polyphonic theremin. Sincerely, Clara.

Lev’s Answer: I’m sorry Clara it’s not possible; we only have two hands. Cheers, Lev.

Analog Tachometer: To answer this question, the tier_horn creates a CV by converting the sine to a square, then pulsing an integrator, an alchemy predating phase locked loops.

Boundary pusher: To answer this question, the tier_horn samples the boundaries of your radio gesture on the gold and lets you control how languid they decay to your rest position.

Error signal: To answer this question, The tier_horn then references these two boundaries to create an error signal, which is like an envelope so you thus have silence on the stereo output.

Currency Loopback: The currency is your mini cord (stereo or mono). Connect the inputs to the outputs in a crosswise fashion.

Live Clock: The voltage control for the live clock goes directly into a current converter and analog oscillator, which the esp32 evaluates just-in-time for the livest control.

Positivity Boost: The tier_horn attenu-verter, a knob with the purple banana, gives you full inversion, but also a boost on the version. Twice the positivity and half the negativity!

Use your ears: Patch any orange point to a green banana and twiddle the knobs.
