Custom Marsynth Heart Breaker
YouTube Uploaded by marsynth on Mar 11, 2012
"This is a demo of a recently completed custom Heart Breaker. The unit was built into an aluminum panel that a customer will be fitting into a pre-chosen enclosure. In addition, the photocells that are normally mounted directly on the panel are embedded into the main board as vactrols which will be driven by a microcontroller. The addition of a new "chaos" switch (which was developed after I made a freak discovery while troubleshooting) rounds out this unit and takes it well into uncharted, chaotic, non-linear noise territory. More info on this unit can be found here: http://marsynth.com/products_custom.html
The unit was run straight into a mixer with no additional effects.
Thanks for watching!

Synchonizing Electronic Musical Equipment and Acoustic Drums
YouTube Uploaded by artoftravelogue on Mar 12, 2012
"The ability to have sequences of different devices play in time together can be a challenge. In this video, I demonstrate how I synchronize various equipment. MIDI and DCB standards can also be easily synched, but are not shown in this video. I use primarily DIN Sync and analog clocks (including the Garfield MiniDoc) for this demonstration. The Casio and the DR110 have been modified to accept a clock input. The solenoid drum triggers were built by me and allow for dynamics (accents) - the roll in the drum pattern is programmed using a pulse LFO with an S/H modulation for random variation. There is more information on modifying clock signals at www.artoftravelogue.com."
Sequential Circuits Programmer comes in at 1:48. Aries modular audio comes in just before that. Watch through to the end for the drums being triggered by the Modcan.

Expert Sleepers ES-3 eurorack module - Silent Way system
YouTube Uploaded by bigcitymusic on Mar 12, 2012
"Here's our first video using the super-slick Expert Sleepers Silent Way system. In this video we are using the ES-3 module with the black acrylic front panel. Lightpipe to control voltage!
Using Ableton Live we called up our Silent Way LFO plugin. The LFO is synced to the master tempo of Live and we wrote in some automation on our Ableton clip., selecting 1/4, 1/8, 1/4. then 16th notes. The drum beat is from Live too.
In this demo we're using an RME Fireface 800, ADAT output directly into the ES-3 module. The sound is the Pittsburgh Oscillator into a Division-6 Filtaire. The Silent Way LFO is controlling the filter's cutoff frequency."

Moog Minimoog Model D SN 5220 with Original Box & Extra Parts
via this auctionSee the seller's other items for more.
"For sale is a vintage Moog Minimoog Model D monophonic analog synthesizer. This keyboard is in excellent shape and fully functional. It was recently serviced and sounds great! Classic fat minimoog sound. This one comes with the original box which is insanely rare, I don't think I've ever seen another Minimoog for sale with the original box. Also included is a spare oscillator card, which is also fully functional and will be useful should your minimoog ever have an oscillator failure you can just swap it out and get it repaired and still have your Moog working in the mean time. Also included is a spare set of knobs. The knobs + spare Osc card are worth over $600. See pictures below for more details. Please note in the pics one of the knobs is missing a chrome/silver top. I should have this somewhere and if I find it, it will of course be included. Not a big deal considering there are so many spare knobs you could always just replace it with one of those."
Roland Juno-106 with Wood Side Panels
via this auctionabertronix (RSS)
"Its just been cleaned serviced and checked. Noise, filter and wave forms tested and working. All voice chips are working and have been properly calibrated.
Original internal battery (which is soldered directly to the PCB) has been replaced by a battery holder/watch battery combination making future replacement much easier. The battery is needed for the retainment of memory when the unit is switched off.
Original factory presets have been installed.
Custom hardwood end panels installed. They have been sanded finely and wood oiled. The ones in the picture have a natural oil but I can fit cherry stained color end panels if requested (see last picture for comparison).
Original plastic end parts are avaliable on request."
Commodore 64 with MSSIAH
via this auction
"Commodore C64 v2 refurbished. (very clean, case/keyboard in excellent condition)
Mssiah Cart (Music application), with pdf manuals (on disc)
Cassette drive.
Original C64 manual.
Joystick.
Potentiometer paddle control.
2 cart games.
5 cassette games.
Power supply.
Free Tv with remote (pick up buyers only) (any tv/lcd will work)
Mssiah is a very powerful music application that turns the C64 into a analogue mono synth with full midi. The C64 can be played or sequenced/programmed by the C64's keyboard (in partnership with joystick or paddles) or via either external midi keyboard, DAW (eg Ableton, Cubase, Protools etc) or by any hardware sequencer that transmits midi. The Mssiah responds to both CC and midi commands. It is also viable to sync the C64 via DinSync (old roland gear, tr606/tr808/mc202/tb303 etc)
The very special thing about this particular C64 is that it has the R5 8580 sid chip (see picture for verification). The 8580 was the only Sid chip version that makes it possible to mix the oscillators (in any wav form combination) together, giving greater versatility and sound options. The 8580 also has the redesigned and much improved analogue Filters, as well as reduced noise output. There were 7 version's of the sid chip in total, 8580 being the most rare and recent. When buying a C64 its all a matter of chance to what version sid is installed, as there is no external markings that identifies the model."

What if they had picked another song?
YouTube Uploaded by organfairy on Mar 12, 2012
"People who are interested in Casio toy keyboards will know that "Wake me up before you go go" was often used as the demo song.
But I was wondering how it would have sounded if they had chosen another Wham! song.
I decided to give a try and here I play the first Wham! song I got to know in the early 1980's: "Bad Boy"s."

The Frankfurt Musikmesse is Coming!
With NAMM out the door, the International community's largest music event starts on March 21 and runs through March 24. For those new to the Musikmesse, it is HUGE. Think NAMM, but in Frankfurt Germany. Some say the Messe is bigger than NAMM. Who knows?
Regardless, expect to see a number of new product announcements. If you were wondering why you didn't see something from some of the big players at NAMM, there is a good chance you will see it at the messe. The first Musikmesse 2012 post goes to eowave.
Keep an eye on MATRIXSYNTH for synth news. As you know things typically get leaked before the event, so check back often. I'll be adding the Musikmesse label on the top right of the site menu soon. We actually have a few posts up already, so click on the label below to see them. You'll of course find previous years as well.
Note, I will not be attending myself, but as you know MATRIXYSNTH is a MATRIX of SYNTH info and you can expect to see everything synth-related to the event here. BTW, if you are attending the event feel free to send your pics and videos. It's a great way to get some extra exposure on your site. Those of you that get featured on the site often should be covered, but if I miss anything, feel free to let me know.
Update: I just created Musikmesse labels for each year. It's a fun look back in time. I'll need to do the same for NAMM.

Hi everyone. Moving forward, if you click on an image it will come up full size. For some reason blogger switched to bringing them up in a picture viewer that allowed you to "scroll" through images in a post, but did not allow you to view the image full size. You could get around this by right clicking and selecting view image, which I thought was fine for a while, but in hindsight I don't like it. When I click on an image I typically want to see full size. I can easily click back and view the next image. If anyone feels strongly about the change feel free to comment.
