TRQ

TRQ: Composite video color inverter

The circuit is based on the “Truqueur” by Hervé Cadinot, published in “Montage électroniques pour vidéo” in 1994. It can invert the content of a composite video signal, and wipe between original and inverted video, with gain control on original and inverted signal.

It’s interesting to note that the design seems quite inspired of the “Video Colour Inverter”, published in Elektor Magazine November 1984.

TRQ V2 adds a second wipe, with a CV/audio input so the wipe can be controlled with an external signal. This signal can be processed using the internal sample and hold (based on René Schmitz YASH).
TRQ produces various glitch effects, with bright colors. A rotary switch can select between 8 effect intensity, and a potentiometer attenuate this effect.
The project is now available through the shop, either assembled, in kit or pcbs only.

Bah bravo... paye ton sponsor lmao #cheater #truqueur #fionneur #montpellier
Here I share with you the presentation Teaser of 'Confide', the new upcoming album from eluizemusik , a musicmaker from Australia all the way up to Berlin in the Techno environment.
This track's name is "Elapse", and you'll find it in the complete LP which is going to be released by craigieknowes label on 8/04.
So glad to have received this opportunity! - The video was made completely by me, mixing usage of analog and digital circuitry, new and old, using it as it properly should be used or using exactly some of its malfunctioning.
Big thanks goes also to Bastien Lavaud holographic_thought_process , which let me build an early prototype of a Composite video distortion/ color inversion unit: The Truqueur, and you'll be finding it as a kit soon on www.syntonie.fr .
A point of View about these sounds, if you will - 
Enjoy the view/sound 😀

Pronti per l'uscita di #confideLP! eluizemusik con questo album ti porta a spasso tra meditazione, armonia e bellissimi panorami sonori. 
Allegato all' album uscirà il video ufficiale di Elapse, contenente una controparte visiva di cosa sentite; segnali mischiati, misture di apparecchi nuovi (#truqueur) e vecchi, analogici e digitali, e malfunzioni totalmente desiderate.
Stay tuned!  ENG/ 
Ready for Confide LP releasing tomorrow!
eluizemusik is gonna take you around amongst meditation, harmony and beautiful soundscapes.
Elapse 's official video is going to be attached, containing a visual counterpart of what you hear; mixed signals, a mixture of new circuits (#truqueur) and older ones, analogue and digital, and totally desired iridescent malfuctioning.
Stay tuned!  #glitch #glitchart #audioreactive #lissajous #oscilloscope #diy #newmedia #av #compositevideo #analogvideo #analogcolours

Building some CBV001 while waiting for panels, more boards, and also more components to put kits together.  FFG and TRQ will be back in stock in about two months, will be focusing on the modules and CBV001S for now.  Still two Discret11 in stock ready to ship, not planning on building more for now so time to get one 😉  #vu001 #vu002 #vu003 #vu004 #cbv001 #truqueur #falschfarbengenerator #discret11 #glitch #glitchart #glitchartistscollective #videoart #analogvideo #videosynthesis #analogglitch #videodistortion #DIY #syntonie #eurorack #eurorackvideo #modularsynth #videosynthesis #circuitbending #crt
