MOS-LAB 914 Filter Demo

via Sebastian:
"I would like to inform you about a new MOS-LAB module : 914 Fixed Filter Bank. It's a wonderful module, very impressive! The original Moog's 914 design uses passive cells based on inductors and capacitors; but nowadays it's too difficult to find these inductors. I had replaced the passive cells with active filters."

"Terrible picture and I go on a bit - but hear me out, if you love synths you should appreciate it.

Analogue Preservation © is a 12x16inch book based on the design and ergonomics of the analogue synthesizer. It was shot on a Hasselblad phase on for optimum detail. The idea and realization was a collection of synths that reveal all the specifications in the photograph rather then being listed in text.

The book and idea is complete and copy written.
I'm in talks with a few publishers but they are not really known for this sort of book, so if you like it and know someone - here is my website - it has better quality examples.

"bad sound, bad picture I know - it was shot on a mobile, better then nothing though right???? The Yamaha CS-50 was born before the CS-80, it is half a CS-80 without a ribbon controller. Although half the size it is 1/10th the price...of course one voice is out of tune."

Buzz-R Electronics

"The goal of Buzz-R Electronics is to make it easy for artists to get their hands on exotic soundmaking devices for very little money (by renting). These are mostly one of a kind devices that can turn any sound upside down, inside out and scattered around the room. We also offer workshops on how to use the devices, hardware hacking, etc.. If one likes the sound making devices enough I hope to be able to support the artists who are making these one of a kind devices by selling their work."
