Sequentix P3<\/a> controlling two MIDIbox SID-NUXX<\/a>s chained into an x0xb0x<\/a>.<\/center><\/p>\n

I arrived home from work a bit early today with nothing to do. I’m not exactly sure why I did it, but for some reason I got out my Sequentix P3<\/a>, MOS SID 6581 and 8580-based MIDIbox SID-NUXX<\/a>s, and x0xb0x<\/a>. I chained the MIDIbox SID-NUXXs into each other, ran those through the x0xb0x, hooked it all up to the P3, then got to playing. I spent a good bit of time going back through the P3’s manual<\/a>, stopping somewhere in the Step section. (Yes, I have yet to learn about using accumulators… I know…)<\/p>\n

Anyway, I mostly just screwed around with three patterns, one for each instrument, stacking them on top of each other. The end result is this:<\/p>\n

6581_8580_x0xb0x_p3.mp3<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s nothing great, just my screwing around. But I can say that all the sound and sequencing comes from gear I put together myself.<\/p>\n

Now, to find something to do tonight. I’m sort of in the mood to do something social, but I’m not sure what. A club \/ bar is kind of out, as it’s a bit dull going by one’s self uncertain if there will be anyone familiar there. Hmm.<\/p>\n

I think I’ll at least play some Missile Command. :D<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
