The BAM! KAPOW! bubbles with features are epic. The new enclosure also looks sweet too. The demo song sounds like a techno remix of an old russian folk song.</p> <p>I've always wanted to build a synth; they're very cool. Hopefully going to get around to making one, one day.</p> <p>How exactly is the music generated? Do you personally twist the knobs and push the buttons, or can it be randomly generated based on set conditions?</p> <p>-robodude666 </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=665&page=2#post-6047 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 01:29:18 +0000 Xavier 6047@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Many updates on my Projects...
