Das Subharchord


via Das Subharchord

"The Subharchord is a unique electronic instrument which is somewhat comparable to the Mixturtrautonium from Oskar Sala. This site is dedicated to the Subharmonic Sound Generator, which was developed during the 1960s in East Berlin (GDR) at the Radio and Television Technical-Centre (RFZ) of the German post office."

The Mixturtrautonium.


You can find a VST emulation and more info on Rick Jelliffe's site.

The Unique DBK




Two shot's via this auction. Title link takes you to the post on VSE where I found this. Some interesting bits (pun intended) from Micke in the post (that Micke knows his synths):

"It's a rebadged LEM Bit 99:

...which itself is a rebadged Crumar BIT 99.

some insider info:

LEM is/was a subsidiary of General Electro Music, Italy (more known as GEM) and I'm pretty sure they bought the rights from Crumar to re-release the BIT 99 (under the LEM brand) when the Crumar company ceased to exist around the mid-to-late '80's.

Around the same time as this, Gem would buy the ELKA company (another well-known Italian manufacturer of musical instruments) which was owned by the other Crucianelli brother, namely Piero Crucianelli.
(Piero was brother to Mario Crucianelli who owned Crumar). "

A Little Disney History

Title link takes you to a post on Craigslist for the Moog Polymoog used in the Disneyland Electric Light Parade. Kind of interesting to me in that I grew up in Hollywood and used to go to Disneyland all the time. I remember pulling an all nighter there with all the goths during one of their special events (I looked the part, but I never was a goth!). : ) I actually had a black crow try to pick one of my hairs thinking it was branch. Another story for another time. I forget what the event was for, but I do remember passing out on a bench and having a great time. What's odd is I've probably heard this exact synth serveral times. This one via Brian Comnes. Thanks for the flashback Brian! : )

Two Notrons, a Serge and a Fenix Modular...

walk into a bar, and...



meet a couple o' little TB ladies. The Serge says, "see, hear, and feel the power of my wave (on top)" The Fenix says "I filter the crap out of your wave." The Notrons? "Shut up and dance, slaves. Mr. Tape recorder, start rollin."

Shot sent my way via mrcarp. Click on the shot for its full glory. Thanks Mr. Carp!
