"Trademark performing "Colder" from their new EP "At Loch Shiel" - live in the studio, all synths, no computer!

The timing is controlled by the Machine Drum, which also takes care of the drums. The Matrix 6 pad is being run through the Yamaha CS-5 envelopes to gate it, we use the internal sequencer on the JX3P for the main bassline, and the Pro One arpeggiator at the end.

Elektron Machine Drum
Jen SX1000
Oberheim Matrix 6
Casio CZ1000
Roland JX3P
Roland Juno 60

Speak and Spell pitch via CV

"This is a total hack CV control circuit I was testing for a modded Speak and Spell. A photocell shrinkwrapped agaist an LED provide a way to convert 0-9v to a resistance. Luckily CV is DC so that works out pretty nicely. The voltage ranges and resistance need to be tweaked to give more accurate control, and there are plenty of places for this to go wrong, but this is just a really basic proof of concept."

"Had to change the battery of my Future Retro Revolution today.

At first the good news:
It's a quite normal battery like you find it in your household or every supermarket.

At last the bad news:
You've to take care with the american screws, don't loose it. If they are driven to hard you'll have stress to open them without demolition of the housings surface."
