If you look for Memorymoog LAMM, Jupiter 8, so it will be here soon."

Visitors of Matrixsynth

I was just looking at my stats and saw this. Anything green means there was a visit to the site from that country sometime during the period of Jul 26 - Aug 25. These are real people, not bots. Pretty cool.

Hello world!

Note the count is visits not pageviews. Pageviews are about double.

The AKS On The Run

Title link takes you to more info on how to patch the EMS Synthi AKS for Pink Floyd's classic "On The Run" on EMS SYNTHI.

Update via the comments:
"I tried this a couple of different ways if anyone is interested.

1. The notes are E4 E3 G3 B3 A3 G3 A3 B3.

I programmed the notes into a Future Retro Mobius driving an Analogue Solutions Sub VCO and SY01 into a Sherman filterbank. It really opened this sequence up to a new dimension.

2. I also programmed the notes into FL Studio using the 3 OSC plugin added hihats with delay and it was practically an identical copy from the actual run on Dark Side of the Moon."

The EVOS Modular is Coming

Remember the EVOS? Via Mike Peak on AH:

"Dennis contacted me yesterday:

'Mike,

I have no problem with you passing on what I discussed with you. I will be making some sort of announcement (sometime in early '08) about the web site and when the updated Evos Modular will be available.'....

The previous email:
'Mike,

Every few months, or so, I do some internet browsing, just to see what sort of things are going on in the synth world - especially concerning modular stuff. While doing so, I happened upon your post on the MATRIXSYNTH site (via AH).

It's always pleasing to me to know that people are still interested in my modular and also, that they seem to understand and appreciate what I was trying to accomplish. While I have no objections to the documentation being disseminated, I often have mixed feelings about this. Firstly, (and most importantly) because the system has gone through a number of refinements over the past few years and secondly, republishing them only perpetuates the grammatical and typographical errors which appeared in the originals. To rectify this situation, I am (slowly) compiling data on the latest version which will appear in an upcoming web site dedicated to my modular system. Eventually, I plan to include some historical information tracking the development of the various versions of the system through time.

...I have been making plans to release the new version of the modular early next year. It will be, initially, limited to a set of what I consider to be the most essential modules, with gradual additions over time.

I genuinely want to see the modular in the hands of people who might put it to good use...

Take care.

Dennis'

This is great news. Especially if it sounds like it looks."
