sequencer

Zak Cole proposes EIP-6969 for generalized Contract Secured Revenue (CSR). Altlayer launches a multi-sequencer rollup. CoW Swap adds support for fTokens. And Gravita unveils its borrowing protocol.

Hackaday editors Mike Szczys and Elliot Williams recap a week of great hacks. You won't want to miss the dynamometer Leo Fernekes built to measure the power output of his sterling motor (also DIY). In this age of lithium-powered multirotors, it's nice to step back and appreciate a hand-built rubberband-powered ornithopter.

We have a surprising amount to say about Python's addition of the match statement (not be be confused with switch statements). And when it comes to electromechanical synth gear, it's hard to beat a spinning tape-head sequencer.

Schon als kleines Kind lernt Keshav durch seinen Vater und viele Reisen die indische Kultur, die Sounds und die Musik kennen. Klar, wird er irgendwann selbst Musiker u.a. war er der Frontmann, der Indie-Rock-Gruppe Timid Tiger. Und mit seinem Soloprojekt „Keshavara“ und bei allem anderen weiteren Projekten ist er an Experimentierfreude kaum zu stoppen.

“Their internal users will see that their access time to an instrument goes down. They can get on it sooner, which is counter-intuitive, but it is reality.”

What if scientists could plan and run experiments much faster? Meenta’s software platform is making the use of high-end research equipment far more efficient. Co-Founder & CTO Stephan Smith is excited by the massive opportunity his startup is addressing.

Highlights include:

• Sal Daher’s Intro
• Stephan Smith’s Bio
• “Half the time they sit idle and half the time if someone owns one of these instruments, there's still a long wait to get on them. They're not simple devices, but they are crucial for research.”
• “Used to take 3 months for you to book time on one of these high-end sequencing machines and have all the reagents and everything else lined up and the right people and so forth, and now you're doing it within 2 weeks, 12 days.”
• Biggest Obstacle: Convincing People That They Don’t Have to Do Things the Old, Slow Way
• The Unique Challenges of a Multi-Sided Marketplace
• “…we let our users make a decision based on whether they care about speed, or quality, or price.”
• How the Co-Founders, Stephan & Gabor, Came Together
• “…we were 10 minutes into him telling me about the problem and I think the top of my head blew off. I was like, this is what I've been waiting for. This is a massive market.”
• “We allow them [universities] to make their core labs more efficient by having more samples throw flow through these machines. These machines are able to run actually more efficiently.”
• “Their internal users will see that their access time to an instrument goes down. They can get on it sooner, which is counterintuitive, but it is reality.”
• When it Costs $15,000 per Run, You’re Not Going to Run Your Sequencer Half Full. It Pays to Get Others on the Machine to Share the Cost.
• Sal Daher Talks About Portfolio Company FineTune Learning
• The Burning Question for All Angel Investors: How Am I Going to Make Money on This Company?
• Academic Study on Meenta’s Approach to Two-Sided Markets
• “The bigger problem that I see is how do you provide value for both sides of the marketplace so you don't have a churn retention issue.”
• How Meenta Keeps Clients from Going Direct and Cutting them Out of the Business
• “…we assumed the $2,000 order size. Our order sizes are dramatically bigger.”
• “Our clear North Star is $1.6 million worth of gross revenue per month by December of 2020. That's our goal.”
• Meenta Is Hiring Geneticists, Field Application Scientists – Screen for High Emotional Intelligence
• Finding Your Calling
• Sharing Your Wisdom - Techstars
• We Are All Fans of Clem Cazalot of Techstars Boston
• “I would say your podcast helped people learn fast.”

 

Back in Podcast 38, we talked to Jim Coker - the developer behind Numerology and the company Five12. Well, it's been five years, and a lot has happened since then. I met up with Jim at Synthplex, and got a quick catch-up; I also realized that we needed to have another interview, because things have gotten very real for him since we last talked!

It's all about hardware, baby. In this case, that would be the Vector Sequencer: a no-holds-barred sequencer for Eurorack systems that brings much of the sequencing power of Numerology into the Eurorack world. This device provides many of my favorite features into its 3u height, so you can expect that I wanted to know how that could happen.

As always, Jim was willing to share - and to be patient as I marveled at what he pulled off. This sequencer is significant enough to occupy the center of a decent studio (much like Numerology itself), and bring the step sequencing game to a new level of awesome.

You can learn more about both Numerology and the Vector Sequencer at five12.com

Enjoy!
