PARASITES by the squarewave parade

"i would like to introduce the PARASITES. the PARASITES are intended to be used as both "circuit bending plugins" ( think VST's for speak & spells and casio's) as well as "lo-fi mini synth modules" that will all run off of a wide range of readily available power supplies. the first batch of PARASITES are now available in the store. i have pages, photos, details and some rough samples posted for them as well. you will find links for everything from the main page.

i have also added a PARASITE section on the new message board to help everyone figure out how to use and install them, so put it to use. there is a little added spam protection during the registration, the extra authorization code it asks for is: +!Ck73dP1nK

tons of new stuff on the way !!!"

Do not miss the Steelpone S900 Synthesizer. Great sounding synth and a great performance.

Sent my way via insektgod who had the following to say:

"It's in Italian but the music is universal...
Steelphone S900 Synthesizer
Roland 505
Korg PolySix
Ensoniq ESQ-1
Yamaha Motif
There's even some oscilloscope thrown in. I really like the "I nailed it" move at the end."

Gear Addict Clothing - Synth Ts

via Jordan:
"I've always had a hard time finding cool t shirts and stuff to wear so I went on some forums and started talking to people-- and found out that people have a hard time finding cool gear too. I hate all the generic t's I see in trendy stores...so we started brainstorming, put together some ideas, and i made some designs.

Our designs range from microphones and recording related, to analog gear, vintage and modular synths, theremins and other fun stuff. I am constantly talking to people in the community on forums and making new designs. We are a small community so why not help each other out.

I figure Matrixsynth would be a great place to get ideas and suggestions from people, as well as great exposure for the kinds of people we are trying to design shirts and other accessories for. Above sales is the community-- we design shirts by and for our small little niche, and would like to try to extend out to more people."

If you have any ideas feel free to comment or shoot Jordan an email at gearaddict at gmail.com.
