note the orage on the box matches the orange on the synth. And the curtains... and the... it's a cool shot.

"The Little Phatty is the late Bob Moog's last ingenius contribution to electronic music/the world.

I'd been researching analog synths for the past year and decided on the small but PHAT LP.

Thank you, Mom and Dad!"

BCM Welcomes Diabolical Devices and Class A Electronics

http://bigcitymusic.com
via the Big City Music blog
"We're very very excited to offer instruments from Diabolical Devices and their sister company Class A Electronics. Diabolical takes instruments like the Roland TR-707 drum machine, the Casio SK-1 and others and modifies them. Whether it's a pitch mod for every drum sound, or a banana plug patch bay for different bends, or an added LFO, these pieces come back from the dead!

Here's a picture of a circuit bent TR-7027. This is a Roland TR-707 that also has the sounds from a Roland TR-727. You can switch back and forth. All the drum sounds have pitch mods with knobs to control the bends. They also have three separate global bends and a cymbal delay bend. On the left there's a banana plug patch bay allowing you to link several bends at once creating some truly unique sounds.

Class A Electronics makes some incredible guitar pedals as well as small wattage tube amplifiers and more. Check back with us soon for the latest from these guys!"

a bouncing midi pattern generator
MonomeSerial prefix: /osc

A basic but fun take on Tenori-On Bounce Mode, put together as an overdue exercise in teach-yourself-monome. Requires monomeserial set to /osc. Should be good for 40h, 64s, 128s & 256s, plus has virtual interface for monome-less operation. Currently midi output only, and noteouts are adjustable from 0 to 127. Loads of fun with Ableton>Impulse (syncs to external host) and plays nicely in Max Runtime.

Includes a virtual 64 + 128 + 256 interface (see above and below)"
