Guess The Studio Pics #4

Continuation of this post.
And the answer is...
via Mr. Array:
"as many people have pointed out already, the studio belongs to none other than Lil Jon who is responsible for many hits this past decade. The same Lil Jon who was parodied by Dave Chapelle. The other artist in the photos is Rhymefest who won a Grammy for "Best Rap Song" for co-writing Kanye West's "Jesus Walks".

The video that these shots came from was filmed in March for use in a "making of" promotional video for Rhymefest's new song "Angry Black Man": link

Said "making of" video should be done any day now :)"

"Hey Matrix! Just got back from Electro-Music 2007...my EM duo The Bemus Point played there, along with dozens of other people. These pics are from yesterday (Sunday)...a very fun event. The owner of those Buchla synths actually let everyone play with 'em. Amazing!"

DIY MOOG 904a

Title link takes you to shots via Keith via AH:

"the reason I built my 904A was because there was NOTHING available at the time that sounded anything like it, just approximations.

I happened to be given a 904A front panel, (it was from the Welsh mini people when they were working on moog module re issues), and i thought that the panel needed justice doing to it. There was also the element of challenge and a chance to increase my electronics skills which are very poor.The only original parts are the 3392s and the 4058s which are essential for the sound, you can use modern equivalents but they need offsetting (as in the MOTM-490) to get the right sound, and a couple of the wire wound trims because they happened to be available, nothing else in there is vintage. I made some great friends building that filter, I have a fantastic filter, it cost me much less that a real one and above all I enjoyed the experience.

Oh, nearly forgot, the knobs are original NOS, they make all the difference :o)"

Casio CZ-3000

Title link takes you to shots via this auction.

Details:
"The CZ-3000 is very much like the CZ-5000, minus the on-board sequencer.
The CZ-3000 synthesizer used the same phase distortion engine as the CZ-101 and the CZ-1000, but added the following features:The synthesizer had eight voices instead of four voices (16 oscillators instead of eight) It was possible to split the keyboard (in other words, have some keys play one sound while other keys played another sound). The synthesizer had 61 keys, not 49 keys There was a built-in chorus effect. Instead of having just a pitch bend wheel, the CZ-3000 had both a pitch bend wheel and a modulation wheel."
