Sequential Circuits Remote Prophet

"The Prophet Remote is an oddity easily stumbled upon in music shops and the like. It was designed as a strap-on remote keyboard for the Prophet-5. That's right, now the keyboardist can join the ranks of the hip-swayin' and hair-tossin' guitarists at the front of the stage! The Remote connects to the Prophet-5 via a 20 foot long cable designed to interface with only the P-5.

The Prophet Remote has controllers in the hand grip for pitch bending, LFO modulation and volume or filter cutoff. There are also program / bank select buttons for loading up different patches."

Analog Heaven Compilation - 2007

" Analogue Heaven is an email list established in 1993 for the discussion of analogue music equipment. This compilation, created in 2007, is a collection of contributions from list members, centered around the theme of "Sputnik" to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the launching of the Russian satellite.

Technologies used include analogue synthsizers and effects. Where possible, a list of tools and a description of the creation process are provided by the author(s) of each piece with accompanying links to MP3 and FLAC files. Individual MP3 are 320kbps."

Note the compilation is still being created. Some tracks are up but others will surely follow. I was going to hold off on putting up this post, but the AH list has over two thousand members from what I've heard from numerous sources, so anything that goes to the list is pretty much public the second it arrives. Be sure to check back for additional tracks. If a "the compilation is done" email is sent to the list I will do my best to put up another post.

Update: The page is just a placeholder for the time being. I'll put a new post up when it is done. Sorry folks, I jumped the gun on this one.
