Doctor Bombay is Taking Requests

Update: So I did a little search on Stephen Teller of Doctor Bombay. I found his official site. Damn...
---------------------
Remember Doctor Bombay? He's looking at making a new video that will feature plenty of vintage synths and he's looking for feedback as well as taking requests.

"I've got a fairly large collection of vintage synths- probably around fifty or so. My partner in the Doctor Bombay project is currently the keyboard player in a well known classic rock band. Once I know it's cool I'll let you know his name.

We are planning to do another video. That's why I want to get as much feedback as possible on this one and see what people might be interested in seeing. We're looking at some Blood,Sweat and Tears remakes-anything cool from the late 60's and 70's. We will feature many more synths on the next one also. I wonder if you posted a question as to what song your readers would like to hear next if we would get any response?"

Feel free to post in the comments.

Synths spotted in the last video: Yamaha CS60, Moog Polymoog, ARP Quadra, Oberheim Four Voice, ARP Odyssey and ARP Pro DGX.

Teisco SX210 with Bottom Panel of Buttons

The SX210 was released by both Teisco and Kawai. I've never seen one with buttons along the bottom like that. Click here for more shots pulled via this auction. Anyone know more about this?

From the auction:
"One other significant feature which makes this particular SX-210 even rarer than other SX-210s is the extra row of buttons and controls below the keyboard. I have seen a few SX-210s but this is the first one I have seen with this feature. The buttons and controls mirror the main panel controls."

miniMusic MixPad

"MixPad is a full featured MIDI file player/recorder/editor. It will let you take any raw MIDI file with you on your Palm and play on any connected MIDI hardware. MixPad differs from any other Palm MIDI file applications with powerful graphic support for simple viewing and quick editing." Think about that for a sec.

BTW, I love miniMusic. I'm still waiting for someone to come out with something like BeatPad for the PC. If you know of any software like this, please comment.

SID Buffer Mod

Probably the biggest issue with the Commodore64 SID is the background noise. This mod addresses that. Title link takes you to more info on C64Music!

"The mod involves adding two 74x245 buffer chips to isolate the SID from the C64 address and databuses. The main reason for the background noise is that a common ground is used for both analog and digital parts inside the chip."
