Anyone know what keyboard that is?
Update via adrian in the comments: "It's an Bontempi, don't know the modell, but I have the smaller version of that keyboard. It's pretty crapy. The blue pads on the left beside the speaker are drums, or chords. It might be an Bontempi KS5400, but it seems like there was many models with this design (Ungly 90's). They are all labeled System 5, I guess that the sound chippy thinngy."
Moment of MOOG
Moog Urges ''Moment of Moog'' Throughout the World; In Addition, Foundation Launches Web Site to Continue the Moog Legacy
"Moment of Moog" audio file ASHEVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 17, 2006--August 21st, 2006 is a difficult date for lovers of the synthesizer. It was one year ago on August 21st that Bob Moog, inventor of the synthesizer, passed away. This year, Moog Music is rallying the media world to honor the memory of Bob Moog with a special, 20-second "Moment of Moog." During the Moog moment, Moog requests that radio stations play a short musical piece, recorded on one of Moog's most famous inventions, the Minimoog(R) Voyager(R). (See MULTIMEDIA AVAILABLE links or download from www.moogmusic.com.) [Here's the mp3] In doing this, the world of music will be paying tribute to one of the greatest legends in electronic musical instruments.
"Sometimes it feels as if he is still here; other times, he is sorely missed. One year ago his fate was sealed and the finality of his death certainly gave all of us pause. The 'Moment of Moog' is our way of honoring the tens of thousands of musicians who carry Bob's legacy forward," reflected Mike Adams, President, Moog Music.
Another organization is also set to honor and continue the Bob Moog legacy. The Bob Moog Foundation for Electronic Music will launch its Web presence on August 21st, 2006. The foundation will be online at www.moogfoundation.org. The objectives of the Foundation are to create: endowed scholarships at University of North Carolina-Asheville, Berklee School of Music and Cornell University; a Memorial Museum in Moog's name; an outreach/mentoring program that brings electronic music into disadvantaged schools; and to sponsor electronic music competitions and concerts that would foster innovation in the field.
Ken Soper, composer of the "Moment of Moog" piece, said, "These sounds remind me that Bob, like the Minimoog Voyager, is alive."
Moog Music and our customers carry on the legacy of Bob Moog, the inventor of the synthesizer. We design and manufacture electronic musical instruments with unlimited sonic possibilities, including Etherwave(R) theremins, Moogerfooger(R) effects modules, Minimoog(R) Voyager(R), Little Phatty(TM) synthesizers, and the Moog PianoBar(R). Founded by Robert Moog, Moog Music is located in Asheville, NC."
We all know he didn't invent the synthsizer. It's just annoying when they state that.
