George discusses the Syntar (the first keytar ever), Division-6's Midify, Synthwood Cable Racks, Ad Infinitum colored cables and of course the Mattson Mini Modular and some of his new projects including the Handicon. The Handicon will be a CV hand controller that you can interface with your modular. It is based on the neck controller of the Syntar mentioned in Stephen's post below. Image of the MMM handicon prototype below.
Don't miss the Syntar neck controller.
Some more info on a modern update will be coming up in George Mattson's talk.
Note, during the reference to the track Cowboy, I mistakenly stated the original cowboy videos were from Vocoderman, it's actually VoiceEncoder. You can see more of his videos previously posted here. Apologies to VoiceEncoder.
Watch the skulls in the background.
"Here is a live performance of the MMM demo number four featuring the stack of MMMs behind, the Syntar (the father of the MMM) and the new AcidLab MIAMI in MIDI mode. The bass line, arpeggio and drums were sequenced in Logic. The Skulls were triggered via Logic (the percussion tracks) using Division-6's MIDIFY."
COWBOY (RIP) AND THE ROLAND VOCODER LIVE AT PNW SYNTH DIY 2009 FEATURING THE SYNTAR, MIAMI AND MMM
"This is dedicated to that old dog COWBOY who used to listen to his master's vocoder. The bass and some melody are handled by the MMMs behind. The Syntar is the carrier wave for the Roland SVC-350 vocoder. The Syntar also plays a sort of melody. The MIAMI is sequenced in MIDI mode from Logic. At the Pacific Northwest Synth DIY 2009"
Be sure to see this prior post for reference and lyrics. The third video is the studio recording of this track.
See demo number four in this post for the first track.
YouTube via simonsound1 "Using Ableton Live arpeggiator to trigger the Macbeth's envelopes with all kind of pitch modulation coming from the LFO's and random source. Towards the end I route the oscillators through Filter one which for me is the best filter. It is much more dirty than the transistor ladder filter 2.
