Dave's Studio

Dave of umop and our favorite synth comic strip, The Packrat, sent me this shot of his new studio. I asked him if I could put up a post and he gave me the thumbs up. You can see other content Dave has contributed to Matrixsynth including synth videos, in these previous posts. BTW, be sure to check out PONG, Dave's retro band.

Update via Dave: "I actually only have one more show with Pong, on Thursday the 24th at Rookies in Cromwell, CT. I'd love to meet feelow synth nerds who happen to be in the area."

Howard Jones Retro set

"If you enjoy live synth music then goto http://www.howardjones.com/hojo.html and buy his 20th Anniversery Concert Live at the Shepherds Bush Empire"

Anyone know if these are one off shows showcasing his vintage gear or did/is he actually taking them on a full tour? Would be cool if he started using them for all of his shows.

BOSS DR-220e in sync with Ableton Live

YouTube via sifkasifka2 aka JB.

"This is my BOSS DR-220e synched to ableton live using a 5v trigger sample looped in Impulse at every 16th beat and sent to the drum machine's trigger input. You just need to set the DR-220e to receive the trigger in and you're set. I got the idea from this page : http://www.mdz.de/www/blog/27"
