Casper

sono stata progettata,
prodotta e replicata
in scatola mi han chiuso,
ma avevo qualcosa fuori uso

mi mettevo in posa per essere notata,
ma nessuno mai mi ha acquistata,
non ci credevo più ma sei arrivato tu
e al buio di questo scaffale non vivrò mai piu

con un body contact
mi hai salvata
mi sfiori con le dita
mi sono innamorata

special tnx for the original videos to tvdays.com
this song is dedicated to Casper Electronics

Kraftwerk's QUASIMIDI POLYMORPH PROTO Up for Auction?

via this auction

"I am selling one - ultra-rare - Quasimidi Polymorph - PROROTYPE -Analog Emulation Synth. This Prototype was released before its official launch 1997 towards Betatesters and Projects. In this particular case we see the one that has been given to a very famous german electro-group. I received this one a couple years ago as a gift from one the members i worked for. I want to switch my gear-acquisitivenes to a new hobby and so for decided to sell this one into thankful hands.

Technically and musically we have a 4in1-Synth with inbuilt- Stepsequencer and rich possibilities for structuring Patterns. I like the fact, that it can -Stand-Alone- be very complex and twisted. Just like an Electribe, but not as flat as i think those Electribes sound. The Control is intuitive and fast. The Mixsection down right invites to realtime arranging. With this Gear you can just start and find yourself in senseful patterns. The Sound generators are dirty - cool - as well as "liquid" - even cooler - i personally hear a lo-fi version of the novation supernova synth - like Sounds in Aphex Twin´s "Windowlicker" or Kraftwerk´s "Expo2000".

What leads to one special feature for supposed fans of one particular famous german Electroband: I sell the Gear as i received it from the first OWner: The gear contained no preset patterns when it was delivered to the original owners. there ARE like 35 patterns saved. I saved none of those myself. Actually i stored this dustfree and dry in my gear collection. I just tested it before i took the shots. The Display shines healthy ( see pictures ) . There are no Expansions or single Outs installed - PROTOTYPE."

"Finally, a more or less serious production with NanoStudio! I use all four Eden synths, and my own custom samples for the beats. I also did some post-production by resampling, reversing, filtering portions of recorded parts. That was a lot of fun!

FYI, the beats I use are available from Sinevibes:

AS Oberkorn MK3 Tutorial #02 - Modifying Sequence Length

YouTube via rezfilter | September 13, 2010

"HOW TO: Modify the sequence length on an Analogue Solutions [www.analoguesolutions.com] Oberkorn 16 step sequencer.

By patching one of the GATE OUTs to RESET, you can change your sequence length to 8 steps, 4 steps, or any number of steps desired (even 1).

To do this, simply toggle one of the 16 Gate Switches to Y (where Gate Out Y is patched to Reset) and the sequence will restart to step 1. This is a very straight-forward way to come up with some interesting sequences/patterns."

Vintage Oberheim DMX DX Stretch Sound Kit Chips

Interesting they went with orange and yellow packaging rather than the classic Oberheim blue.

"very cool vintage sound chip kit for the oberheim dmx dx or dx stretch model drum machines from the early 80's / there are five plug in chips in the kit , el hat 3 / cowbell 64 / fat snare / timbale / and tambourine rimshot .

These have all been tested and work fine , these are the real deal not replicas!

For those of you who don't know the oberheim dx dmx or dx stretch look it up it was used by a lot of early 80's hip hop and synth pop band , like depeche mode and pet shop boys , even george michael had one, they were a lot like the linn drum made famous by prince"
