Simple 261e Melody

YouTube via boobtube356
"The symmetry and high order values on the 261e change independently and at random each cycle using the quantized random voltage outputs of the 266e Source of Uncertainty. The beginning of this recording seems to be sensitive to the playback resolution. Try 720p."

"My girlfriend's sister created this synth cake for my birthday. Modeled loosely off the Yamaha DX7 (which I have but she didn't know that I had), and using marble cake batter, Kit Kats for the black keys, Jolly Ranchers, and some licorice decorations here and there. Visit her site for more cake stuff (she does awesome work): bake-thoven.squarespace.com/notes/2010/1/23/just-sit-at-h..."

Moog Little Phatty Videos by Dovinia

Analog Impressions #002

YouTube via Dovinia
"Although a bit tedious to program the Moog Little Phatty is an extremely versatile synth. This little musical sketch takes a Tangerine Dream - like approach with a strong arpeggio in front and drifting leads and flute like timbres floating in and out in the background. This piece was recorded on analog cassette tape and patched together with a recording of the rain pouring down outside my studio."

Analog Impressions #007
"Moog Little Phatty accompanying itself over four analog audio cassette tracks."

MicroKORG and MicroKORG XL

YouTube via Dovinia
"Here's a quick improvisation done in two takes with a MicroKORG and a MicroKORG XL. These are excellent sounding analog modeling synths. As an owner of several vintage analogs by Moog, Roland, Korg and Yamaha I have to admit that these two MicroKORG's, although digital, are truly fabulous. Perfect little synths to have about in the house when away from the big, bulky analogs in your studio... If you consider buying a MicroKORG or an XL: Get them both!"
