"If you have a JX-8P, and haven't repaired the aftertouch feature (or had it repaired by someone else), then most likely the aftertouch feature doesn't work on your synth. Either that, or it is very difficult to get it to "kick in", say applying an ungodly amount of pressure to the keys to get it to work."

1972 Moog Minimoog Synth Brochure
images via this auction. via Bill.
"Extremely rare brochure from 1972. 8 1/2 x 11", 4 pages. Extremely bad graphic design. A little water damage and a pen doodle on the front. The inside features photos of Minimoog users, including Keith Emerson in full Rock God mode. I like the guy in the tux, I wish I could have caught his act."

Admin: New Link Behavior
I just changed all links on the site to open a new window rather than replace the window. This should help a bit with performance in not having to wait for the site to reload every time you hit back from visiting one of the links. Thanks goes to mpeake for the suggestion.
Mattson Mini Modular Perched on a Synthesizers.com Modular
The MMM Phoenix series on top of a Synthesizers.com modular at this year's PNW Synth Gathering. Image via Carbon111 in this VSE thread. Be sure to check out Carbon111's updated Syntar page now with the MMM. The modules on the MMM are all the same size whereas the synthesizers.com varies based on the modules. The dotcom uses 1/4" jacks and is based on the MOOG modular. The MMM uses 1/8" jacks and is based on the Syntar (more info on Carbon111's site).
click the image for the full size shot.
Note the MMM pictured is the base system at 12 modules. You can add an aditional 12 modules on the right for 24 modules total. The PSU and MIDI to CV take up two spaces in the default system and are used for the additional 12 modules. You can latch on additional cabinets and each system can be folded into a closed and protected modular suitcase for on the go.
You can find more info on the Mattson Mini Modular here and synthesizers.com here.

"There are a few good places to buy pro-audio equipment in Berlin. If your looking for a personal touch and boutique equipment head to Kruezberg and visit City Sound Pro. Berlin has the worlds greatest analog synthesizer store at Alexanderplatz called Schneider’s Buero. When you walk in a Theremin will track your moves and greet you. From there Mr. Schneider himself will show you his vast collection. For used vintage stuff you can try a small shop on Schönhauser Allee called Musikinstrumente & Design."

A First Look at Max 5
"The first thing you might notice about Max 5 is the new look of the objects. We've redecorated with a new appearance to ensure you can immediately identify the basic elements of a patch. It doesn't try to be photorealistic, primarily because the interface scales so you can look at a patch at any resolution. That includes zooming out as well as zooming in."
