"In the museum there are three objects without any documentation. As one of the pictures shows they were probably made by Electric Music Studios te London. Researching the Internet, [EMS] didn't provide clear explanations. The three objects appear to be one musical instrument, but are not in a working condition, so this theory can't be tested. One object bears the name of its former owner, Mr. Lawrence Casserley, London. Melvin Poore, a Britsh composer living in Cologne, Germany, delivered the e-mail address of Mr. Casserley. The following illustrations of the objects were send to Mr. Casserley"

"I found this fascinating page about the VCS1 and two other very early EMS products – and it’s not Don Banks’ VCS1 which I know you’ve covered previously. The comments from the previous owner and assorted EMS personnel/authorities are very informative."

Update via Matt King Unique:
"While we’re on an EMS roll - I found this yesterday too, a website from a 1970s UK computer centre where they developed ‘CASS’ software and an interface to control the VCS3 from one of their computers.

'The CASS (Computer Aided Sound Synthesis) package is provided to make soundtracks synchronised to computer generated films or to generate musical output from the computer. The programs are available on the Atlas PDPI5. The VCS3 synthesizer, further details of which can be found in the User's Guide, is used to realise the sounds.'"

microscopics gas0095 Mini Mini

I recently picked up my copy of microscopics gas0095. If you remember this post, for a limited time the CD came with a mini Mini. It's made of cardboard and it's actually pretty nice. It was a bit smaller than I expected but it is definitely pretty cool. The control panel tilts. The back has graphics of the jacks and the underside actually has the electronics pictured. What really surprised me was the tiny printed manual. You can see it and more shots of mine here. If you are not familiar with gas0095, check out their site and check out these prior posts for a couple of videos. Note one of the videos are now available for direct download at the following URLs:

AFG Light FM

YouTube via pristak777
"A Livewire AFG ditty. Using the Doepfer Light CV to control FM on the AFG's and their Joystick into the pitch cv along side a pattern on the MAQ 16/3. The filter is the Cwejman dual.

In hindsight I should have turned the stack of portables to better face the camera so you had a better view of the modules. But now you get to look at my purty face."
