Cwejman S1 Mk2 Samples via Vogelscheiss

Via AH. Some interesting and exotic samples. Trippy...

These are by no means fancy demos but as the Cwejman S1 Mk2 seems to be by
and large mysterious in the analog world I thought it might be fun to post a
little something:

http://vogelscheiss.com/sound/101505_cwejman_demo_famished_dog.mp3
Cwejman with Stylus RMX. Delay is PSP Audioware 608 Multidelay.

http://vogelscheiss.com/sound/100505_cwejman_demo_pseudo-pumptiness.mp3
All Cwejman. Delay same as above.

I'll try to do more demos later on. It really is a warm and great-sounding
synth.

Shiny Minimoog on the *bay

Click hear for the auction. Title link takes you to the shots saved for posterity. Check out that shiny faceplate.



Google Translation:
"And now the Clou: This mini acts has a shining front plate (looks like plexiglass on shining metal - > chrome? See photos). After information of the previous owner it concerns a special model. The inscription is identical to black the according to standard control panel. Beyond that the Pitchbend wheel possesses a suspension, it jumps back thus automatically into the zero-position."

Synthesizers Make Hot or Not?

I was reading the comments on this Music Thing post and I ran accross a link to Hot or Not. Of course I had to see what could possibly make that site and be related to synths. Well... I have no idea if this is real or not, but I thought it was pretty damn funny and worth sharing. Title link takes you to the site. The following is the bio:

"I am an Aussie chick who loves a beer and a laugh. I dont like guys who constantly talk about their feelings and their synthesisers. If you are looking for shallow synthesiser free conversation click yes!!!"

Nice...

The Many Faces of the Waldorf Wave

The Waldorf Waves, without a doubt were most beautiful synths to me. There are gorgeous synths out there and then there are the Waves. Click here for Till Kopper's Unofficial Waldorf Wave site. One of the coolest things about the Wave, aside from its massive Wavetable synthesizer power with analog filters, was that for an extra fee you could order a custom color for it. The physical design of the synth came from Axel Hartmann of the Hartmann Neuron synth. His design is pure art.

Some jems to make sure to check out:
