The Moog Minimoog Sawtooth-Triangular Waveform

YouTube via AutomaticGainsay

"Viewers of my Minimoog video are constantly trying to decipher what I'm talking about when I describe what at that time was a mystery waveform. It wasn't long after I posted the Minimoog video that I looked up the name of the mystery waveform in the Minimoog manual. It is the "Sawtooth-Triangular," a sort of weirdly bent Triangle wave.
This video is a portion of a bonus video which is included in my soon to be released synthesizer DVD. Be watching for details on how to order!
Thanks for watching!"

"Wilson working with Synplant on Ableton Live. He says he likes the interface better than the traditional knobs of other synths, but it's annoying that it makes unpredictable sounds. The kid knows what he wants."

Tristan Perich: Active Field - LIVE Tonight

Tristan Perich: Active Field
WITH William Brittelle: Mohair Time Warp

Tonight, Active Field, Tristan Perich's first major work for ensemble with 1-bit music accompaniment, arranges ten violinists and ten audio speakers on stage in a work that investigates the fundamental relation between physical and electronic sound. Working with primitive electronic machines he creates, Tristan Perich explores the foundations of sound. Last heard live at the Whitney Museum, Active Field is a jubilant intersection of the opposite but equal domains of data and sound, treating the violin and computer, each pinnacles of their respective disciplines, as primitive machines for the creation of sound.
William Brittelle's Mohair Time Warp is a full-length, lip-synched, mixed-genre, art-music concept album featuring an 8-person, mixed rock/classical ensemble. Possible descriptions include: a punk-classical collage version of the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds; a marriage of Basquiat, Prince and Debussy; and/or Captain Beefheart put through an art-pop filter with a well-dressed, wildly charismatic lip-synching frontman.

Beastie Boys, Grand Royal Magazine Issue 3

via this auction

Beastie Boys' Grand Royal magazine

"Comes with original Grand Royal "synth" iron on t-shirt transfer which has never been removed from the magazine, be aware that this is about 15 years old and so is not guaranteed to work should you choose to try it! There is some marking and slight scuffs on the cover but the magazine is in otherwise good condition with all pages unmarked and intact. Features a great 32 page feature on "everything analog" (synth) with Bob Moog, Dick Hyman, Wendy Carlos, Walter Sear, Stereolab and Money Mark also the story beheind Adidas. A great read!"
