DIY: Some repairs on Curetronic stuff!

Last year, I got a little rough with three pieces of sound tools. Here and there I had to renew torn cables or cold solder joints.

Matthias Schmidt from Curetronic (a modular music company) in Dresden developed these soundtools for different occasions.

F_O_N
He developed the fully automatable 8-step sequencer synth F_O_N for a Psy-Rave-Worlshop. The nice synth has eight functions like Cutoff / Step1, Reso / Step 2, VCF Env / Step 3, Waveform / Step4, Attack / Step 5, Decay / Step 6, VCO Env / Step7, Seq Speed / Step8. There is also a Start/Stop button, a distortion/booster and a Seq Synth Mode switch. A synth with which I already had a lot of fun.

BUMMMSSsss.....
The Bummms is a small triggerable synth with CV-in and Trig-in, as trigger you can also use the piezo which is glued under the lid.  
The Bumms has 4 switches for On/Off, LFO-REC/TRI, LFO-H/L, NOISE-VCO/VCA and 7 potentiometers for SENS, DECAY, BEND, TUNE, LFO-SPEED, LFO-LEVER and NOISE-LEVEL. These countless possibilities I have already explored to the last detail in many performances.

PING BONG
A small synthesizer, with some charming options like EXT-IN, BONG aka LFO , TÜÜT aka LFO SPEED, DONG aka TUNE and BING aka ??? With the built-in speaker you can immediately cause a stir everywhere in the public space :)
