Galaxy 500 Studiologic SL-880

"I got the controller quite cheap years ago when someone had tried to ship it, and the shipper basically dropped it, breaking both sets of endcaps. I cleaned it up, repainted it gunmetal/DX-7 brown, added the felt strip, and the Galaxie500 nameplate (via eBay motors). The new endcaps directly from Studiologic, though no props to them for not being able to provide the custom plastic mounting hardware - I had to create a workaround with some washers and such from the hardware store."

via this craigslist post. Note via Josh who sent this one in: "As a note, I'm only selling this through craigslist locally. I will not be shipping it, unless someone wants to throw LOTS of money my way (IE, paying for the UPS store to wrap and ship it). At that point, they may as well buy a new controller and make the mods themselves. It would be cheaper."

I like this one simply because I like Galaxy 500 - great band.

Anyone know the difference between the Plus and the L.A.M.M. or if they are actually the same?

MOOG Memorymoog L.A.M.M. - Lintronics

"Hardware Upgrades Include:
* Five new jacks are installed on the rear expansion slot's cover plate: MIDI IN and MIDI OUT ports, a 1/4" stereo output jack, a 1/4" mono output jack and a FILTER input jack. Stereo output circuitry is added. If the mono output jack is used simultaneously with the stereo output jack, then the Memorymoog's six voices are spread across the stereo field (the placement of the individual voices is fixed internally). The volume of the stereo output can be adjusted only with the programmable volume pot, and the value can be stored with each individual sound.
* An analog noise circuit is added to the stereo output board to avoid the digital loop effect of the original noise generator.
* The power supply is checked for cold solder points and defective components.
* The six voice cards are removed, checked, repaired if necessary, and modified for the Lintronics Autotune algorithm. Forty-six oscillator adjustments are replaced with high-stability precision multi-turn potentiometers. Oscillator capacitors and resistors are replaced with high stability parts.These modifications ensure the long-term stability of the oscillators.
* All system boards are removed, checked for cold solder joints, tested, and repaired if necessary. Modifications for pitch bending, modulation wheel, foot pedal, and octave signals are made. After these modifications, the cutoff frequency in Keyboard Tracking mode is not only controllable by the keyboard, but also by the transpose switch, tune control, and pitch wheel.
* The Octave Board is modified so that the setting of the octave switch can be stored on a per-sound basis.
* The Digital Board is rebuilt so that the reset switch functions reliably. Microprocessor and program ROMs are replaced with upgraded components. MIDI interface circuitry is added.
* The front panel components are removed, checked, and replaced if necessary. The front panel is cleaned, and missing or damaged knobs are replaced with original Moog parts as availability permits.
* After the upgraded circuit boards are reinstalled, the instrument is 100% tested, then allowed to burn in for 7 days, then tested again."

Roger Waters MSG - On The Run - Time May 30, 2007


YouTube via bkaplan00. via Nusonica where you will find one more vid.
"What is unique about this is the side angle. Notice Harry Waters using the VCS3 synth [actually a Synthi AKS - essentially the same synth in a suitcase with sequencer] for On The Run. Then Roger Walks behind him followed by walking inbetween Harry & the screen (which for 95% of the people Roger is out of sight. Also note the camera swings to the plasma on the side of the stage that shows what is / will be projected on the screen. Then Time is complete with Breathe Reprise"

Matrixsynth on Facebook

Title link takes you to a group I just created on Facebook. You have to be a member of Facebook to join, but don't worry, this site is my priority. I will be focusing my energy posting stuff here. I'm just getting familiar with Facebook and their groups, so bear with me, but if you are a member of Facebook feel free to to join. I will of course be looking for interesting stuff that comes in, to post here. For more info on why Facebook is interesting, see this video.

Anyone know what this is? I found it on Facebook. "strange huh?" was the caption for the image. BTW, I saw this on the "I like any song with synthesizer and hand claps" group on Facebook. If anyone is on this group of Facebook post a comment and invite me as a friend. I'm on as Matrix; just do a search for "matrix synth." Also I just created a Matrixsynth group on Facebook. Feel free to join it.

A vast sector of modern advertising... does not appeal to reason but to emotion; like any other kind of hypnoid suggestion, it tries to impress its objects emotionally and then make them submit intellectually.

Erich Fromm

Monads(holon)are Deities created to be companions on your every day journey. there are several of them. They will appear to you on your dreams. You will mimic the good feeling that the creatures (monads) are oozing. every creature has been programed with virtue and impeccability, it takes you into an spiral that will be the first step to a brand new day of evolution in you brain. New resources will be opened on your island (mind), so you can build your own "tower". think, breath, move, become.

Some are thought to be invisible or inaccessible to humans— to dwell mainly in otherworldly, remote or secluded and holy places, such as Heaven, Hell, the sky, the under-world, under the sea( the mind), in the high mountains(the mind), or deep forests(the mind), or in a supernatural plane or a celestial sphere—choosing but rarely to reveal or manifest themselves to humans, and to make themselves known mainly through their effects."

Raymond Scott - Lightworks


YouTube via johnnysmooth.
"okay, a couple months ago I got this Raymond Scott compilation. Scott is pretty much the inventor of electronic music. He did a lot of music for commercial and cartoons but also he did stuff like this. I don't know if I would necessarily recommend this compilation. There are some real nice bits, but they are few. meh...and that's my review.
The visuals are from 'Treasure Island,' one of my favorite books, although I had never seen this version. I got it because I have this book, 'The Hollywood Book of Death' and this kid in the film is in it. Bobby Driscoll who when he got older got into drugs (heroine) and he ended up dying (or is it dieing) pretty young."
