ARP Axxe Synth Autographed by Stockhausen?

via this auction
"ARP Axxe Synth Autographed by Stockhausen...

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a synthesizer autographed by the composer Karlheinz Stockhausen!

I loaned this synth to Stockhausen for a series of performances of the opera 'Donnerstag Aus Licht' at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden in 1985.After the performances ended, I asked Stockhausen to autograph the synth for me.

Information on 'Donnerstag Aus Licht'...

Dedication reads 'For another FESTIVAL, David? I'm with you! Stockhausen Oct. 1st, 1985'. Unfortunately the pen wasn't a very good contrast with the black surface of the synth, but the writing is clearly readable to the eye...

Regarding certification of the autograph, I will give the winning bidder a signed letter stating the authenticity of the autograph, on request."

Dronebox Demo video

Dronebox Demo video from Oli Larkin on Vimeo.

"This is a quick demo of dronebox being used to process electric guitar. In the video i turn on one comb filter, change the pitch and then turn on four comb filters which are tuned to the notes D,F and A (d minor chord). When i play one of these notes on the guitar the corresponding comb filter will resonate. For more info see olilarkin.co.uk" follow-up to this post.

I also had four sets of 4x multiples added below those. absolutely wonderful!"
