flickr by analoghell.Title link takes you to the set.
"Memorymoog, Jupiter 8 and Waldorf Wave"
Update: The shot belongs to the Turnkey flickr set, so I'm guessing that is where it's from. Can anyone confirm? I heard Turnkey had a room filled with vintage gear but I didn't realize it looked this nice. I also heard most of the gear came from The Museum of Synthesizer Technology and Turnkey has indeed sold most of it off: link to a previous post on the Museum and Turnkey.
Update via GRONDO 2001 in the comments:
"This huge collection used to be there at the bottom floor, but it's been gone for the last 3 years. They used to offer some time in this 'lab' when you bought a hardware sampler, otherwise you couldn't access it. When they got rid of it, they didn't say anything, it was just gone one day, and today it's just another show room."

"On a number of occasions they would shoot interviews there - anyone who remembers the C4 series "The Shape of Things That Hum" would remember Nick Rhodes being interviewed in there from the Fairlight episode... "

ReplyDeleteYeah, they flogged all the gear off. I don't think that many people used it.

It's like the dismantling of heaven.
ReplyDeleteStill, I don't really get the 'let's keep the analogUE vintage SEPARATE from the ultra-digital'.
My best fun comes from mixing the two. And fun is what it's all about. The sacred and the profane.
Too bad they dismantled this room. It's sad like when Dr. Who was cancelled.
These are the pictures I took in the basement of the Turnkey shop in London. Sadly, they are no longer there.
ReplyDeleteI believe that they got most of it from the Museum Of Synthesiser Technology.
I don't know where it's all gone. AFAIK it hasn't been sold. yet.
