Roger Powell To Donate Custom Dual Keyboard to The Bob Moog Foundation


via The Bob Moog Foundation where you'll find the full post.

"My custom dual-manual Moog keyboard controller was built in 1974 along with two System 55 cabinets containing a host of Moog modules. I had been doing clinics in the US and Europe for the Moog company, was hanging out with Bob a lot, and had just joined Todd Rundgren’s Utopiathat summer. The big system was put together for me to perform with on tours. The keyboard was designed to my specifications: two keyboard manuals, pitchbend and mod wheels, a mixer section with four faders, an effects loop, VU meter, and sockets for a Ribbon Controller and standalone Sample/Hold module. Bob himself worked on the mixer circuit design, and also handcrafted aluminum edge protectors for the 55 cabinets to help with wear-and-tear on the road!"

Update: additional pics and the official press release:

"Synthesist Roger Powell Donates a Piece of History to the Bob Moog Foundation

Asheville, NC - November 14, 2012 – In celebration of its recent six-year anniversary, the non-profit Bob Moog Foundation is pleased to announce a generous donation from American synthesist Roger Powell: a dual-manual keyboard that Moog Music custom built for him in 1974. The keyboard, which Powell acquired shortly after joining Todd Rundgren’s Utopia, was part of a synthesizer comprising two Moog System 55 cabinets housing a host of modules.

'The keyboard was designed to my specifications,' says Powell. 'Bob himself worked on the mixer circuit design.” Powell had been doing clinics for Moog Music in the U.S. and Europe, sometimes with Bob Moog when the system was assembled for touring with Utopia.

Like a lot of Moog gear, Powell’s keyboard comes with a fascinating story:

'After the first evening of a two-night booking in Cleveland, the custom keyboard was stolen from the stage. Strangely, the modular system cabinets were left untouched. My guess is that the thief believed the keyboard itself to be playable, as it resembled a two-manual organ. A few years later, the System 55s were destroyed in a warehouse fire, thus removing all remnants of the original system.

'In 2002, much to my surprise, the missing keyboard was listed on eBay. The person offering the keyboard had no idea it had been stolen and was not the thief. (He was younger than the age of the keyboard.) I was able to negotiate its return and have held onto it since, hoping to refurbish it but never completing that project.

'After Bob’s demise and the creation of the Bob Moog Foundation, it occurred to me that the custom keyboard deserved to be in a place where it can serve as my personal tribute to my dear friend Bob Moog. Bob and I spent some very happy times together; I will always remember laughing a lot with him, as we both shared an acerbic, wisecracking sense of humor.'

The Bob Moog Foundation is honored to accept Powell’s donation, and we look forward to restoring the keyboard to its original condition. Our goal is to display it publicly so that, in Powell’s words, 'People can enjoy seeing it and hearing about its interesting past.'

The Bob Moog Foundation is quick becoming a repository for a variety of donated artifacts from music and synthesizer enthusiasts from all over the world. The foundation is stewarding the preservation of donated items including: synthesizers, controllers, photos, schematics, correspondence, equipment, literature and more. Interested donors can contact the foundation at info@moogfoundation.org."

Update 11/15 via Mark Pulver: "Interesting! So, back in February of 2002 I tripped over an eBay auction that featured that controller. From history, I knew that it had been stolen from a gig in Cleveland many moons prior (1974?). I got an contact email for Roger, wrote him, and heard back. He was pretty stoked. We flipped some email and Roger has said it might be hard to prove ownership. I got Bob Moog and Roger Luther involved as well, and RogerL came up with that picture of him and Bob (and the controller).

He contacted the police, but the case had long been closed, so he contacted the eBay seller ("I found it in a storage unit..."). After some nudging and more proof digging from my side and some back and forth, he convinced the seller to let it go - but only after paying the asking price plus shipping to get it back. :("

Roger Powell's One of a Kind Controller Finds its Way Home to the BMF


via The Bob Moog Foundation.

"Pioneering synthesist Roger Powell recently donated his custom keyboard controller to the Bob Moog Foundation Archives. In a special post dedicated to the controller, BMF Archive and Education Specialist Marc Doty explores the unique history and functionality of this one-off design created by Bob Moog himself.

Interested in donating your piece of history to the Bob Moog Foundation? Please contact us at info@moogfoundation.org."

From the article (do check out the full post for the history and full story.  The following focuses only on the features): "Bob and Roger worked together to create a keyboard controller that could harness the power of two modular synthesizers in real-time through a single, convenient interface. A challenge was to do this while meeting Powell’s requirements for advanced controls over the dynamic and expressive qualities of the sound. The controller began its life as a Moog 951 keyboard, but a lot of features were added. The custom controller’s features included:

Two keyboard manuals, allowing independent patches on the two modular synthesizers to be played at the same time.

A pitch wheel.

A modulation wheel.

Individual scale, range, portamento settings, and portamento switches were installed for each manual. These could set for each keyboard individually, or combined to control both keyboards at the same time.

A built-in mixer section with four faders, to manage the sound of the two synths. This custom Bob Moog-designed mixer allowed Roger to easily manage the loudness of various patches and effects he was using in a live setting.

A volume control for the Echoplex delay unit Roger used with the system.

A VU meter for measuring the relative amplitude of the synthesizer output.

A headphone jack, headphone volume, and output on/off switch that allowed Roger to preview tuning and patch changes before making them audible to the audience.

Two “accessory” ports for a Ribbon Controller and a standalone Sample/Hold module.

The keyboard module interfaced with the modular systems through a special cable and connector port. This cable carried the control voltages from the two manuals, accessories, and modulation/pitch wheels and distributed them to the proper synthesizer modules. The cable also had several tracks of audio return which came back into the keyboard from the audio output of the modular; their loudness was individually controlled by the Bob Moog custom-designed mixer. The total output of the synthesizer, came out of the system’s Line Level Out XLR jack."

The Clavitar, The Moog Liberation, and the first Keytars


via this auction

Anyone know when the Clavitar was released? Here's a pic of George Duke in 1980 with one.
BTW, on the last page of the current September issue of Keyboard magazine (with Devo on the cover) is a one page feature on "Keytars Past and Pressent." I was under the impression that George Mattson's Performance Music Systems Syntar (1980) was the first keytar, before the Moog Liberation (1981). It looks like Roger Powell's Probe may have preceded it in 1977. Anyone know if it was just a controller or if it had a built in synth like the Syntar? Jan Hammer apparently also had a newer Probe, which you can see in this video and this video. Before everything was the Orphica from 1795.

Roger Powell image via audioholics

Orphica image via realsamples where you'll find a sample set of it. This might be a newer model though. The image or the Orphica in Keyboard looks much older and more like a mini harpsichord with neck attached.

Update via plaztec in the comments: "The Probe, as invented by Powell (& Jeremy Hill) and refined by Jan Hammer in the area of the pitch & mod wheels (note the left-hand sides of their respective keyboards are quite different, Hammer preferring the Minimoog-style wheels), was a controller and not a self-contained synthesizer. Both had custom rigs; Powell had a bank of Oberheim SEMs, IIRC - and Hammer the same, blending the SEM sound with the Minimoog in order to get his signature lead tone. Jan also experimented with a cruder, squarish remote in order to get the placement and angle of the wheels exactly right for him, prior to the building of his custom Probe. IMHO, those two guys in their heyday were, and remain, the single most credible-looking and compelling rock keyboardists to use remote keyboards on stage, especially considering the musicians they shared the stage with..."

Update via Jimmersound in the comments: "There's also info on the Probe in this Synapse issue."

Ultra Rare SYNAPSE MAGAZINE March 1977 TODD RUNDGREN


via this auction

You can find an online copy on the Cynthia site here. Fun to look through the ads. Note the Polyfusion joystick.

"SYNAPSE - THE ELECTRONIC MUSIC MAGAZINE - dated MARCH/APRIL 1977 featuring interviews with Roger Powell and Todd Rundgren and Steve Hillage of Gong and a feature article on "Synthesizers On The Eco-Front". Also many other interesting synthesizer-related articles and cool advertisements showcasing what are still the best synthesizers ever made. Synapse was the first and best synthesizer magazine. As it catered to a then very small audience, it was probably doomed from the start. They produced perhaps a dozen different issues over a three year period before their demise and is still considered a great publication by those musicians and analog synthesizer enthusiasts that are hip enough to be aware of its' existence. Each issue was produced in a very small press run and alas, very few remain so GRAB THIS NOW WHILE YOU CAN WITH THE "BUY IT NOW" OPTION.

This ultra rare issue features on its cover a photo of Utopia keyboardist ROGER POWELL and guitarist/vocalist TODD RUNDGREN. Of historical value, this issue is addressed to Peter Bergren and Sound Arts, the old Beaver and Krause recording studio in Los Angeles. Sound Arts used to be Synthesizer Heaven in the 1970's and I used to hang out at Sound Arts in the mid-seventies and this was an extra copy that Peter Bergren personally gave me in 1977. Sound editor Peter Bergren has won 2 Primetime Emmys and has thirteen other Emmy Nominations. The magazine has some minor wear and wrinkling and there is a tiny piece cut out of one of the ads. (See pictures.) Pages are bright. (The first three pictures are yellowish due to the absence of camera flash.) It has been stored for three decades in an archival plastic bag in a smoke-free environment."

The Thomas Henry Mega Percussive Synthesizer

via Scott Stites on this electro-music thread. Keep an eye on the thread for updates. If images or samples come in, let me know.

"I guess I better extricate this from the Clangora thread before it derails that fine conversation. I hope I don't sound like I'm hyping this thing unnecessarily, but I truly am buzzed by this design. This one has been as hard to keep quiet about as the Mankato Filter. In fact, I often think about this as the Mankato of drum voices, it's that good. I'll start at the top:

This summer (summer 2007), Thomas quietly developed a drum voice that just sat me back in my seat. I'm not sure I've ever seen him work so hard on a single design - I'm sure he has, but in my experience breadboard testing things, I'm certain this one took more work than I've experienced with any other project. He literally designed this thing from the ground up, and we very thoroughly rung it out.

In the Clangora thread, Thomas mentioned how versatile it was (and it is extremely versatile). On top of that, the sound of this drum voice for me is simply stunning. A good deal of that is due to an innovation Thomas threw in there; it's something that I've never seen on any other drum voice. It was an idea that he picked up from an interview with Roger Powell years ago (it was Roger Powell, wasn't it Thomas? I'm kinda fuzzy here). It has to do with the impact circuit - I swear, it literally sounds like someone is striking this think with a real stick/mallet/hand/sledgehammer (depending on how it's tuned).

Just to give a rundown of the elements: the voice has three oscillators, a noise source, a balanced modulator (that can be unbalanced as well), three envelope generators, two VCAs, a noise source, a LP/BP switchable resonant VCF, and a versatile mixing section with send/receive loops. This one is a blast to tweak as it plays, BTW. It's the only drum voice I've played that can dissolve from a cowbell to a landing alien craft in a very non-seventies, non-disco-era Simmons way (though it can do that, too, if that's your thing).

Fortunately, Thomas designed it, so it is a very elegantly designed circuit (translation, it will fit on a single PCB). There are a lot of controls, so it won't be a small panel.

Right now, the target for the project is as the next electro-music PCB series, in the same vein as the Klee project. We're working on drafting a certain man from Nambucca Heads to crank out a PCB, and we're going to Klee team it to make sure what you get will be the best quality PCB we can offer. The documentation part already is very well done - can't beat those Thomas Henry schematics! I'm hoping to avoid the whole reservation process which is really a pain, but this is all in the prelim stage so far.

Expect samples. Very Happy

Cheerio,
Scott"

Vintage Bell Labs Digital Synthesizer 1977 Demo Video by Creator Hal Alles


Vintage Digital Synthisizer 1977 Published on Jun 15, 2015 urcich

Roger Powell at 5:22. Further below is a video of Laurie Spiegel playing the synth. See the Bell Labs channel label at the bottom of this post for more.

It's fascinating to hear what the initial intent of this synthesizer was.

via Hal Alles on the Synergy list:

"Since a few people have expressed interest, I posted a video on youtube of a demo using the synthesizer I developed at Bell Labs.

This demo was made as a backup for a live demo for the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Talking Motion Pictures.

Hence the references to the movie industry.

The live demo was done on the stage at the Palladium in Hollywood in 1977, so the backup was never shown.
It started life as studio video tape made a few days before the show, converted to 16 mm film, then later to VHS tape, then to DVD, and finally the digital version posted.

Very few people have seen this – I did not have a copy until 1995.

Hal Alles"

Laurie Spiegel plays Alles synth - temporary replacement

Uploaded on Apr 27, 2009 Laurie Spiegel

"This 1977 tape is one of the earliest examples of purely digital realtime audio synthesis. It manages to achieve an analog synth sounding quality, but it is entirely digital synthesis and signal processing.

The interactive software I wrote and am playing in this video recycles my keyboard input into an accompaniment to my continued playing, which is why I called it a "concerto generator". I use part of one of the keyboards for control data entry, and the small switches upper right to access pre-entered numerical patterns. The sliders are mainly pre-Yamaha FM synthesis parameter controls, for the number of harmonics and amplitude and frequency of the FM modulator and carrier that constituted each musical voice.

Until they restore the copy suffering from data corruption please look at this copy instead.

Comments can continue to be left on the original's page where there have been many views and comments views, here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4T3eT...

Thanks for watching,

- Laurie"

Update via Spiegel's Reflections in the comments: "I've posted some additional info about the synth Hal Alles built that's featured here along with a link to more technical info. See my extended comment near the bottom of this page":

"I never heard this called "Alice" till the last couple years. Don't know when that name first surfaced.
A correction: This was at the time considered the world's first ***realtime*** digital (not "additive") synthesizer. Yes, it could do additive synthesis but was quite flexible as to how the oscillator could be used. I used them as FM pairs, with both the modulator and carrier of each FM pair being additive, with the number and amplitude of their harmonics controlled by the slide pots. (This video of me playing it shows is a rare example of pre-Yamaha DX-series FM synthesis.) The breakthrough was to do digital synthesis in realtime so it could be interactive. Prior to this technology, digital computers were not fast enough to produce audio in real time and it was not possible to do digital audio interactively.
There were 72 slide pots. (72 oscillators were mentioned above instead). The number of oscillators depending on how the components were programmed to interconnect. For the specifics of its synthesis architecture, please see Hal Alles's paper describing the system in Computer Music Journal, Vol. 1 #4, which you can find on my website at http://retiary.org/ls/obsolete_systems/Alles_synth_1977.pdf
The system was not dismantled as it says here, but donated to the Oberlin College Music Dept. For all I know it is still there. I'm not sure why Gary Nelson and the group there were not able to get it running. I had heard that it was dropped during the move, but alternatively, we programmed it remotely from (if I remember right) an LSI 11/45 computer in another part of the Labs. I don't know to what extent it could be programmed independently of an external computer with a compiler etc. installed, so that might have been a major hurdle for them. This was 1977 at Bell Telephone Labs, so the purpose of the system was never to make a marketable music system but to develop and test the new designs of its components, and I was under the impression a bunch of new patents resulted, The ideas built into this instrument were not lost to music though. Crumar created various synthsizers based on its internal architecture. I think (but am not sure because I never had direct experience with them) that those included the Crumar GDS and Synergy.
From the liner notes of my 'Obsolete System' cd:
This composition was commissioned by Bell Labs and the Motion Picture Academy for the 50th anniversary of talking pictures. Working with the Alles synthesizer, with its extensive array of input and output channels for control, was a real pleasure after years of GROOVE's extreme restrictions. The interactive software I wrote for this composition recycles the player's keyboard input into an ongoing accompaniment. However, writing the software from a remote DEC PDP-11 computer [..] in the new "C" computer language still undergoing frequent change, within a still-experimental UNIX operating system, without the control inputs or sonic output, under a tight deadline, while the Alles synthesizer hardware was still under construction, turned out to be quite an adventure.

It's also not necessarily true that only 1 composition survives from this instrument. Roger Powell also composed something on it I believe, though I don't know if he finished or recorded it. And I have a couple of reel-to-reel tapes I recorded on it that I haven't listened to since then (1977). It is possible that something on one of those open reels might be worthy of being considered additional music. At some point I will work up to transferring them to digital and find out."

Jeff Beck - Blue Wind


YouTube via CloudFROST. Lync keytar. via Josh.

"Jeff Beck, Jan Hammer and Simon Phillips playing the classic song "Blue Wind" from Jeff's album "WIRED" 1976"

Update via va69nm: "Hell no! that's Jan playing his custom Probe controller, originally developed by Roger Powell for his gig with Utopia...arguably the original 'keytar,' with respect to Mattson's Syntar and George Duke's Clavitar. Hammer's controller was custom-wired to his Minimoog/Oberheim SEM rig that, per Hammer's own marketing of the day, "sounds a lot like a guitar." Powell's Probe had a different, smaller pitchbend/mod wheel array, whereas Hammer's was modeled with his fondness for the Minimoog's spacing & setup. Hammer played (as did Gary Wright & Steve Porcaro) with a strap-on, cutaway Mini keyboard and experimented with the angle of the pitch wheels by housing them in a separate, adjustable, squarish assembly mounted in place of the traditional pb/mod wheels, until the optimum angle was found; this placement was then implemented permanently on Hammer's probe. Hammer's signature Lync purported to be modeled after his Probe, but the Lync is a MIDI controller, not hardwired analog. Don't take my word for all this, Google is a powerful tool :) Kudos to Jan ( and to Roger!) for going above & beyond, innovating a style of playing remote keyboard and holding their own in rock bands while still looking credible and not gimmicky, that has yet to be equalled, IMHO..."
