MATRIXSYNTH: RIP Cowboy

RIP Cowboy

I just did my YouTube run and my heart sank when I found the following two videos. There are very few things that hit more than losing someone you love - person or pet. Pets have your back unconditionally, it's as if their sole purpose in life is to love you and let you know how much of a hero you are to them. My sincerest condolences go out to VoiceEncoder. We can tell that you treated him well, vocoder lectures and all. Cowboy was one lucky dog.

KORG Poly-800 and Roland SVC-350

Be sure to see these posts featuring Cowboy as well as this one that inspired Red Martion to do the following track on Cowboy featuring the Mattson Mini Modular:

"A song written for a dog who likes to listen to the sound the Roland SVC-350 vocoder. This song features the MMM as well as a Sequential Circuits Drum Traks and a Roland Jupiter-6.

Here are the lyrics:

Do you know Cowboy
and the SVC-350?
Do you know Cowboy
and the Roland Vocoder?

Hey there Cowboy
I see you there
Lazy gazing
Gazing lazy
Whos my sweet boy?
You know its you.
I like to vocode and you do too.

No Poly-800 to drive the SVC
So I use an MMM as my carrier wave
No Poly-800 but Cowboy doesn't mind.
We all know its the Roland SVC-350 vocoder time.

  4. My little Jack Russell Terrorist is my best friend and the bravest and most honest person I know. I totally feel for you and am sorry about your loss.

    Mark Twain once said something about wishing that he could go to dog heaven instead of the one for people. Only someone who has really had that bond understands what he meant.
