Have a fun Halloween everyone! I'll be drinking some of that MATRIXSYNTH wine tonight. :)

The wine is a 2005 Northwest Cellars Merlot. It won the Finger Lakes Int'l Double Gold award. BTW, you can get your own custom labels through them. If you do, let them know you found out about them here. :)

Macbeth's Ghosts

"Just got this synth (on loan) yesterday and I've spent the day exploring its functions. So far I'm loving the built in spring reverb (watch/listen to what happens when I shake it!) and the voltage controlled panning. Here is a very short clip of some spooky halloween sounds. Looking forward to using this in some tracks and for some FX in the upcoming Simonsound podcast mix.

Don't forget, The Simonsound cover of Tour de Mars is out on the 2nd of November!!!!"

"A circuit bent "relaxation" device. It has a classic clock bend, with floating voltage, three clock electrodes, and a volume knob on the front. The 1/4" output on the back cuts off the speaker when a cable is plugged into it."
Only relaxing on Halloween...

Oberheim Four Voice in custom panel case.

via Gregor on the Analog Heaven list:
"This unit was originally modified by Sebastian Niessen, a technician who did a lot of modification stuff for Kraftwerk. It includes a Keyboard-MIDI which emulates the original Keyboard action via MIDI and allows velocity-sensitive Filter modulation separately for each SEM (see the 4 pots below). The four jacks on the bottom are for the external inputs of the SEMs. If no Jack is inserted, an internal noise generator is routed to the EXT input."
