Rebekah Raff Joins Plan B

via the Plan B list:
"It's with great pleasure I announce that Rebekah Raff will be joining
the Plan B posse effective Monday, replacing the spot vacated by Elias
Angulo who left to pursue other interests.

Rebekah, who studied at CalArts in mid 90s, is an accomplished
harpist and contributor to the esteemed Harry Partch Ensemble. She has performed with Outkast and toured with both Britney Spears and Kanye West. In 2007 she added analog synthesis to her arsenal.

I've had the pleasure, I dare say honor, of working with her for the past year, first with analog synthesis instruction with later efforts focused more in composition. I've pleased to say I've had an effect: She and her boyfriend Andy Kaulkin named their new kitten Mort and their dog Buchla!

As a sidebar here, in the hopes of gaining her approval I have from time to time shown Buchla (she's a gal) my new circuit designs. So far she is unimpressed but I remain hopeful that future efforts will arouse more enthusiasm.

FYI, I recently mentioned this christening to Don Buchla. His comment was striking: "At least I didn't get the cat". No joke!

Anyway, give a greeting to Rebekah. We're pleased to have her wth us.

Digitana Micro Acid Drone in Yellow
"Just a quick message to notify you that I have decided to offer the Micro Acid Drone in yellow as well as the silver, I am currently trialling a different material for the panels, and I made one up today and it looks really nice, the faceplate is still aluminium but has a yellow polymer overlay, also the knobs are yellow and a different type, everything else remains the same."

MacBeth M5 Short Demo

The noise comes from the faulty mic of my digi cam - sorry."

Yamaha AN200 loop factory demo

YouTube via se7ense7

"Some own sounds (u-ser bank) and preset sounds (p-reset bank)...
Some tweaking, some crappy playing.
Only recorded for the sounds (there are too little sounds of this thing on the net)"

live pa jam - Yam AN200, juno 60 and Korg KM402

"I just puched down an arp on the juno 60 and then the 'hold' button. Made some matching drums on the an200, played a delay-ed sound on top of it all.

Sound is through a korg KM402 kaoss mixer. Just some jamming on my own."

YouTube via YpsiSynth

"Excuse the bad audio. Little synth bass from the SoundLab I put together with my MV-8800 on drums (808 samples). I actually enjoy the filter on this Synth. It does not sound to bad to me. But sound is in the ear of the beholder."
