Programming the Rhodes Chroma

via jesper

Note she is using the Doepfer Drehbank to program the Chroma with the CC+ processor upgrade. You can't do that with a stock Chroma.

Note the blue Sidstation

Update: and here she is again! I thought she looked familiar. BTW, if you tried to click on the jesper link earlier and it did not work, I just corrected it. Apologies for that. Also there's more info on the blue Sidstaion and other interesting bits from jesper in the comments.

Plan B Model 25

Via the Plan B list.
"The first lot of Model 25's will be delivered in about a week to ten days time. I've added a photograph of the finished unit to the EAR site product page.

The M25 is one of the most versitile and useful products we've released. The Ring is silent - well over 60 dB of input cancellation, and the final waveshaper we ended up using sounds great. it's an analog noise source, an attenuator, a linear two-VC VCA, a high-quality Ring Modulator, Waveshaper...a lot of stuff here, all of it good.

The final price for the Model 25 is $225 - (there's a lot of stuff in this guy)."
