SynthAddict Studio Tour at CLOWNFEST 13

CLOWNFEST 13 DAY 2 THE STUDIO TOUR DAY video upload by pierrot the acid clown

A quick tour with supporting member SynthAddict, who's numerous videos you've seen here on MATRIXSYNTH. His custom MATRIXSYNTH hat makes an appearance along with a mention of the site at 3:26.15. Note the video is set to start with SynthAddict at 3:17:30. You can use the player controls to skip around or to the beginning of the full four our show if you want to. Thank you to SynthAddict for the MATRIXSYNTH plug and for supporting the site!

And a prior studio tour from 10 months ago:

Aquifex - Roli Equator 2 MPE live jams with multi-looper

Aquifex03 · Aquifex - Roli Equator 2 MPE live jam 1 with multi-looper

Aquifex03 · Aquifex - Roli Equator 2 MPE live jam 2 with multi-looper

"Demos of new Equator 2 with only MPE patches - played live into a multi-looper and mixed live while playing another part to a stereo recorder - I ran out of loops. :-) The live nature give rise to mistakes and a human feel... I upgraded my Roli Equator app to v.2 during CyberWeek and was inspired to make a couple of “soundtracky” demos with only Equator 2 MPE patches. In case you didn't know, Equator 1 and 2 have non-MPE patches of you need them."

These are in via supporting member, Synth Addict. Nice hat and website! :)

Aquifex - Modular and OP-Z jam 11-23-20

SynthAddict

"Quick experiment with a tempo locked rhythm and a wild snare and off tempo arp. As the beat comes around they sync up, get a little wild, and sync up again. Fun to try but YMMV. :-)

Used some new modules including a Plaits clone, Gyrinx VCF (Synton Syrinx filter bank), Grids, and some classics like Morphagene and Clouds with various modulation bits. That WMD Geiger Counter is a noisy bugger, but fun."

Note that is a custom MATRIXSYNTH hat by SynthAddict. It looks good! :)

MATRIXSYNTH Cap at Alessandro Cortini and Richard Devine Public Works SF Performance

Nice pic in via Synth Addict :)

"Hell of a show on Sat.night in SF, and the Matrixsynth custom cap was representing. I saw several Matrixsynth official t-shirts there as well.

We are legion... :-)

Cortini had a great Buchla, etc. set synced with some very artistic videos.

Devine was sheer madness, as expected."

And for those of you more interested in the performance (sheesh!), Synth Addict took some video but has yet to review and upload them. "Videos will be posted soon if they actually turned out OK."

Note this is a custom hat and I do like it! You can find a smaller font military style hat here, original baseball cap here, and finally, a trucker hat here. More MATRIXSYNTH bling here.

Modular & Custom MATRIXSYNTH Hat

via Synth Addict

"I'm going further down the synth rabbit hole, and modular is the gravity well dragging me in. :-)

This is a current setup from a recent modular jam, and in the end the recording wasn't very good unfortunately.

However I always have my Matrixsynth custom hat handy for inspiration, and I keep plugging away... semper synthetic!"


P.S. You might recognize the hat from this previous post.

Jean-Michel Jarre Live Synths and a MATRIXSYNTH Baseball Cap

This one in via Synth Addict:

"A great Jarre show a couple of weeks ago in Berkeley, with lots of analog goodness and lasers.

ARP 2500 and many more synths were spotted.

In the souvenir area, the most coveted item wasn't for sale. :-)"

Nice MATRIXSYNTH hat! That would be Synth Addict's, not JMJ of course. He's never asked me for one. :) Cool to know it was at the show! Thank you Synth Addict!

Quick Note: the baseball cap was actually made by Synth Addict. The ones for $10 supporters of the site are a different design as you can see here. Just want to be sure anyone that does sign up for the cap, knows which one they are getting.
