Bob and the Synton Modular

Just a reminder, do not miss this post on the upcoming exhibit.


Note that is the Synton modular. You can read about Bob Moog's involvement with Synton here.

Thanks to eZe for pointing this out in the comments.

Update via Brian in the comments: "Bob did some interesting work that is not highly publicized; all the years between 1978 when he left Moog and the Big Briar era.

This exhibit will show a good amount of that stuff; some bizarre prototypes even from the Moog days and later instruments and designs of the 80/90s too."

Modular World

"MW (Modular World)

We are a company dedicated to make synthesizer products, especially modular synthesizers products.

The 1st product from MW is MW-096u. Main design goal is to get as much as sonic variety packed up in a portable modular synthesizer. 2nd goal is to lower the threshold for people to enter the most colorful world of all current modular synthesizer formats - Eurorack.

During the monthes of designing and prototyping. We've made many improvments according to test results and comments. We are extremely grateful to the people who made comments, suggestions and encouragements. Please keep them coming! MW will keep up improving our design.

More designes will follow in the future."

Museum of Techno Radio - Episode 2

"London’s Museum of Techno first opened its doors to the public in 1892. It is home to a fascinating array of early steam-powered drum machines and the James Soame Collection of Booming Kick Drums, the first collection of its type in the world.

Museum of Techno Radio takes us into the sonic world of the Museum, where we make friends with Mr Braidy and Mr Cornwell, the Museum Technicians, and enjoy an audiotour of highlights from the Museum’s exhibitions. We also earwig on the conversations of the various academics, musicians and electronic luminaries who drop into the Museum Cafe for lunch.

Museum of Techno Radio is a series of programmes for Resonance FM produced and sound designed by Dave Pape and Joe Kelly."

Episode 2 will go up tonight here.

New site for free ACIDized sample loops

"Palalab's Free Music Loops
July 21, 2009

SAN FRANCISCO -- Palalab's Free Music Loops is offering free multi-instrumental sample loops in a variety of styles designed to inspire songwriting and fill out a mix. All loops are royalty-free, properly ACID™ized for quality pitch and tempo transposition, and loop seamlessly.

The first sample pack is up right now. A new sample pack consisting of 5 loops will be posted every Sunday, and each pack will remain on the site for 4 weeks.

The site's address is http://home.comcast.net/~palalab/."

Quick Note: This is the way to send this stuff in! Keep it short and simple. It's easier to parse and it keeps from overrunning the site for those that aren't interested. I usually skip the longer submissions unless it really stands out.
