Oberheim Matrix-6

Thought this was an interesting shot via trash_audio's latest workspace post on "On Holiday."

"What are your current favorite pieces of hardware? ...I used to love my Oberheim Matrix 6 because it transports you to a magical place of cheesy 80s horror films, but Qrixs broke a bunch of the keys and it's been dropped a lot, so now it's starting to program its own not-good sounds. I'm pretty sure none of that is actually 'hardware,' but ah, well."

via brian c who has the following to say: "do you know the difference between the grey top and black top knobs?

the grey knobs are available to tweek from inside one of the eight stored patches. the black ones only work in 'manual mode,' when you save a patch their settings are stored with the patch, when you call a patch they are disabled , kinda wierd but that's how it works"
