Hullo and good day, at whatever time you've found this page that i garden, may i wish you a fine welcome and say this is a little place where i put a selection of things that catch my eye, ear and nose (mainly the first two, but lets not hold out on the tech, people). Mainly, this is selection of casio focused, eames driven, double exposed, badly recorded, fisher priced, over collected, misunderstood, adventure timed topsy turvy thoughts and distractions. Oh yeah and some of the photos aboard this were taken with one of my many fisher price cameras loaded most of the time with 35mm slide film. other places to read or see my rambles and recordings are via popular social network twitter.com/wanepillow and soundcloud.com/wane-pillow ciao for now and enjoy. over and out!

Lexicon Varispeech II
"... I was interested in the earliest digital pitch shifter, something I had thought was an Eventide product for the longest time but upon further research found it to be the Lexicon Varispeech model 26, an 8-bit pitch computer that came out ca. 1972. It was clearly designed for military use and speech therapy with its no-frills controls and design, but it can certainly be appropriated for music and can make some interesting effects. Its little brother is the Varispeech II, the same circuit housed in a cassette recorder with the pitch ratio tied to the capstan speed. The idea is that the user can slow down or speed up the tape like you can with many cassette recorders, but the onboard pitch shifter will compensate for the dropped/raised pitch. I don’t know of any examples of it being used for actual music, but it is a very musical device!"
