"Track 8 from our'Calcium Waves' CD originally released in 1998, from a concept that took Andy and myself two years to complete. This track was originally started of life as a demo recorded and sequenced entirely on an Ensoniq SQ80, sounds which are prominent throughout the track. This track also features some lovely analog sounds from the Yamaha CS40M the baby brother of the CS80.

Crumar CPB-2 Analog Bass Pedals

Title link takes you to shots via this auction.
Details:
"Here's a very cool early 80s analog bass synth, similar to the Moog Taurus pedals. This one doesn't actually have the Crumar brand name on it, but it's the same unit as was marketed by Crumar. Made in Italy. It produces a basic analog synth bass sound, and has the essential controls for shaping the sound- see pics. It's in good condition and works, though the contacts need cleaning because sometimes it retriggers itself a bit erratically. It's in good cosmetic condition too, with only minor scuffs/scrapes and some dust. Comes with the original schematics, though there's a small chunk of paper missing from that. This is a heavy/sturdy synth, built like a tank!"

Arturia MOOG Modular V Patch and Demos

"These screen shots and description show how I used an instance of Arturia's Moog Modular V version 2.0 software synthesiser to produce an accompanyment to an audio recording of drumming. In the Sonar 3 screenshot you can see the waveform of the audio recording of drums. In the MMV screenshots you can see how I wired the patch. Accompanying the screenshots are notes to clarify connections not obvious in the pictures. At the bottom of this page are links to audio recordings produced by this Sonar/MMV combination."
