IKARON

DSP based modular synth. Title link takes you to the list of modules. Click on the Product link on top to get back to the main page. It looks like it was PCI card that ran on 98/2000/XP. Looking at the order page it appears it is out of production. I grabbed most of the site here in case it disappears. Via Moogulator.

VinylVideo! - Video to Audio LP Sampling


Now this is interesting. GetLoFi has a post up on VinylVideo. A device that lets you record video to audio LPs. You can then either play back the video through the device or play it as audio. Is it real? I have no idea, but it is entertaining. : ) Title link takes you to GetLoFi's post with a couple of images of the device in use. After that click on the VinylVideo link to get to the site which has samples and a somewhat creepy infomercial - reminded me of those videos in Lost for any Lost fans out there.

Future Retro XS Protype Expander

Via the Future Retro site. Anyone know more about this?

"01:19-22:2006 We invite all those attending the
winter NAMM show January 19-22 to stop by
the Analogue Haven booth #1787 in Hall E
and the Sweet Noise booth #6735 in Hall A
where we will be displaying all our current products
and the debut of our new analog XS prototype expander."

Just a nice shot of the Revolution from the site - not the XS

The Jupiter 8 Resource Center

Title link takes you to the Roland Jupiter 8 Resouce Center, a site filled with history, pictures, reviews, manuals, patches, samples and links. The FAQ section has some good bits. Enjoy.

What Analog Synth Are You?

Me

The Minitron

I was going through the hoard of gear shots on the title link above and ran into The Minitron.



"Built in the 1970s by Norm Lederman"

"The Minitron consists of 48 keys in a slideout keyboard (which stashes away for shipping). Each has its own individual attack, release, and volume controls. These controls operate six broadcast cartridge tape drives, each having eight tracks. Thus, each of the tracks on a cart contains the tape loop for one key."

Bieke Goes Nuts

Title link takes you to a hoard of gear p*rn posts on Harmony Central. And I thought I posted a lot... Note this thread started on Friday 1/6/05. Enjoy. : ) Via Music Thing.
