Today marks the six year anniversary of George Mattson deciding to get back into the synth business with the Mattson Mini Modular. The first public teaser actually went up here on MATRIXSYNTH back on September 15, 2007. Pictured to the left is a white prototype sitting on top of a Synthesizers.com system from the 2007 PNW Synth Gathering.
As you can guess, people were astounded by the small form factor. Not satisfied with having the smallest format in the modular world, George Mattson has decided it's time to have the largest. We are talking hardcore BIG with THE FATTEST knobs and jacks you will find on any system.
I had the honor to announce the original Mattson Mini Modular to the world. I am now proud to present to you his next format, the Mattson MAXI Modular. Pictured below are the first two modules in the series, the SQ3/6 MONDO Sequencer and the Jet Engine Noise module. Each module in the series will come in it's own powered cabinet - one module per cabinet. The Noise module can be set to blow dryer modeo for those live hair in the wind moments. Don't forget the spandex! Update: George tells me there is a hidden "Popcorn" mode in this dual system. It plays Gershon Kingsley's synth classic "Popcorn" and doubles as a popcorn maker. The popcorn shoots out of the noise jacks. You set the fluff, rate, salt, and butter settings with the SQ3/6 sequencer.
