The speakers themselves were created by visionary industrial designer Ross Lovegrove, and marry a sensual yet logical organic form to state-of-the-art audio technology, whilst the Muon identity and book, created by Farrow Design, reflects the speakers totemic sculptural form.
Moving Brands were commissioned to create an audio responsive visual installation to compliment Muon a liquid light experience and used a custom built sound-responsive visual engine to dynamically map liquid behaviours.
The resultant installations organic, responsive light-forms created an emotional aura around the speakers that perfectly encapsulates the dual inspirations of particle physics and Zen Buddhism from which Muon derives its name.

"The Filtare SEIII is a multimode, state-variable voltage-controlled filter that gives you low-pass, band-pass and high-pass outputs which are all simultaneously available. It also includes a notch output which allows you to change the balance between low-pass and high-pass. The SEIII uses discrete components but is based on SSM2040 architechture, giving you a very musical sounding filter. There are CV inputs for frequency and notch balance. The 1 V/O CV input for frequency tracks over several octaves so you can have the filter follow what you're playing on the keyboard or just crank up the resonance and use it as a sine-wave oscillator."
I used Cubase 4 to record this. The drums are Halion One 909 type of patch, the Epiano was the Emagic EVP 73 and the vibe was the M-Audio Key rig. All other sounds including the Lead was the Atomahawk 800. The work you did on this machine is genious, talk about a second chance at life. I am quite sure we've all said thank you in some way but here it goes again. Thank you Michael. James Diamond Durant
Well thanks go to James for having kindly given me permission to put his great work up here for all to enjoy. Thanks James!"
Another demo - Korg Poly 800 MK1
"Mono recording with a little hall fx added but showing the extended parameters, portamento, second LFO and automatic Poly mode changing with program changes."
Korg Poly 800 and EX 800 with HAWK-800 mod kit
"A crude attempt at demonstrating the HAWK-800 kit installed in a Korg Poly-800 Mk1 and an EX-800. A little echo is added for efx but other than that there are no other synths or effects involved in this video. As an engineer, I am not that good at mastering, encoding, composition etc so you have to forgive me for the roughness of it all. The idea is to show MIDI control of the two synths and some of the other great features of the HAWK-800 and AtomaHawk upgrade kits. Look out for the VCF cutoff and Resonance control, the Chorus toggling, DCO MG via EG3, SLFO modulation of LFO's, random sample and hold and several other new features."
