Haken Continuum Voltage Converter (CVC)

From the makers of the Haken Continuum Fingerboard.

"Even though the Continuum will work adequately with a standard Midi to Control Voltage device, Haken Audio has developed a high resolution converter to fully exploit the fast data rates and ranges of the Continuum. The Continuum Voltage Converter (CVC) generates control voltage signals that are perfectly suited for interfacing with legacy and modern day analog synthesizer systems." Title link takes you there.

  8. Walter Carlos
    International transexual composer of that glorious epoch -- the high analogue synthesizer baroque.

    He is now to be,
    Known as Wendy, he
    had a gender operation done.

    Just after making Switched on Bach,
    "Volume One".

  9. "While Carlos's expert craftsmanship in working with the synthesizer cannot be denied, nor his sensitivity toward timbre ignored, this does not qualify [Switched on Bach] as an example of electronic music."

    -David Ernst, The Evolution of Electronic Music, Schirmer, 1977

    It's certainly a hell of a lot easier to listen to than the clangerous FM and ring-modulated crap out there.

  12. so there's a problem with transexuals or a problem with performing bach on synthesizers or transexuals performing bach on synthesizers???

  13. no, there's a problem with transsexuals who perform on synthesizers who file frivalous lawsuits against people who dare mention that they had their wee wee removed.

  14. My last post was lyrics from a song by Momus that got him sued by Wendy.

    When I first heard the song, I took it as a cute homage to Wendy. Go figure!?!

    I have a problem with people who take themselves entirely too seriously.
