| Chaos Matrix is a programmer for an Oberheim Matrix 1000 analog synthesizer built by [[http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=jackchaos|Patrick Manderson]]. It's capable of manipulating all 126 voice parameters including 10 programmable matrix modulations buses, ramp generators, 5 point tracking generator, 3 five stage envelopes, 2 oscillators, 2 LFOs, and much more. | Chaos Matrix is a programmer for an Oberheim Matrix 1000 analog synthesizer built by [[http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=jackchaos|Patrick Manderson]].

| It features edit buffer synchronization for visual feedback and inspection of all Matrix 1000 voices parameters, patch compare, patch init, advanced performance options for some parameters as well as containing all 1000 original patch names. Seeing patch names instead of numbers alone, makes it a lot easier to remember your favorites. | It features edit buffer synchronization for visual feedback and inspection of all Matrix 1000 voices parameters, patch compare, patch init, advanced performance options for some parameters as well as containing all 1000 original patch names.

| - | Chaos Matrix is currently a work in progress and is nearly complete. It was built with help from the MBHP (MidiBox Hardware Project) using the MIOS operating system. It uses 1 DIN module, 1 AIN module, 1 DOUT module and 1 core with a PIC18F4620 microprocessor along with a custom application built with the C skeleton interface. | + | Chaos Matrix was completed in March 2010 after installing the MIDI Merger unit, and building a rear panel with jacks power plug and switch. It was built with help from the MBHP (MidiBox Hardware Project) using the MIOS operating system. It uses 1 DIN module, 1 AIN module, 1 DOUT module and 1 core with a PIC18F4620 microprocessor along with a custom application built with the C skeleton interface. The internals of a MIDI-MAN MIDI Merger 2x2 were used to provide the 2 MIDI input merging. |
