"The proprietary 720KB 3.5" floppy-drive went south four years after its purchase and the dealer asked $250 to replaced it! I searched for the drive's pin-out on the internet and soldered a flat-cable with matching pin configuration for a standard PC floppy drive. It's the same drive (with belt) used in SY-77."

Devil Went Down to Jupiter - synth solo

YouTube via hamsterdunce, aka Dave of umop.com.

"Visit umop.com/parallax.htm for more music!
Here's another total and complete electro-bastardization of an American classic. This time I run "Devil Went Down to Georgia" thru the techno/prog wringer, with sincere apologies to Charlie Daniels. No vocals in this video, although eventually when I semi-formally record it I'll potentially add some vocoded bullshit (and hopefully leave out some of the flubs, too). For now you can hear it in its current state of already-too-stupidness!"

MFB SEQ-01 modular demo

YouTube via burstgenerator.
"MFB SEQ-01 triggering 2 LFO resets and 3 envelope generators. its being clocked off a PlanB Model-28 Tapper, then the SEQ-01 is sending LFO resets on two tracks and trigger envelope generators on 3 other tracks. thats it, no other modification sources. a Doepfer A-110 oscillator patched into an A-137 wave multiplier which runs into an A-105 SSM filter and finally to a PlanB Model-13."
