Macbeth Dual Oscillator

via this auction

"Macbeth Dual Oscillator for Eurorack Modular synthesizers. For those of you who don't know you need a standard eurorack case to power this unit, doepfer etc. Unit works great it's not very old and in perfect condition. I personally think this is the best sounding euro oscillator module on the market, it has a real classic vintage sound and honestly sounds fatter than a lot of vintage analog oscillators. Completely worth the money, some people gripe about macbeth prices but they are missing out!!! Simply the best and I've owned two macbeth M5s and can tell you the dual oscillator module sounds better, more gooey and warm and breathes with more life than the m5 oscs. I'm thinking this is actually the first used Macbeth Dual Osc to hit ebay??? I'm only selling to fund another big synth purchase and I'm selling off my euro stuff because I don't like patching all that much with little tiny 1/8th cords haha. These are $1299 new and here in CA there is crazy tax so don't miss out on the buy now..."

MOTU Volta on the B-Roll

"Volta is a pretty great invention in the world of modular synths. While it makes the visceral experience of patching something from raw into a slower more logistical experience, it makes the composing of music with the modular a much easier task. Plus there’s nothing better than being able to bring that modular perfectly in sync with Ableton Live and testing out different drum loops over the sound."

You can find the full post on the B-Roll. Some nice pics and audio there as well.

Admin: Setting Post Feeds to Partial

There are sites out there copying my posts verbatim. This is automated based on my site feed. I'm setting the feeds to partial now like other blogs. If you like a post, click through. This site takes a lot of time and work. If you like it support it. It's meant to be viewed green on black BTW. Also, if you have a website, please link to it. Support the site as I support you.

cheers,
matrix

Note if you already come to the site this will have no impact on you. This is only for those that view the site via RSS readers. If you are on a reader, clicking though to posts that interest you should not be a big deal. If it is, just come to the site directly. Also I didn't turn off the full feed, so you will still be able to see some of the post and make a call on whether you want to see the full post - you will not have to click through every single post only to find it doesn't interest you. Note this also translates to less scrolling in your reader.

Update: I heard there is a way of preventing other sites from scraping your feed. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. If it work, I'll turn full feeds back on. I'll see what I can find over the weekend.

Update: Until I find a better solution, I found a work around for those using Google reader: http://www.doshdosh.com/google-reader-preview-greasemoney-script/. I tested it with Firefox on Mac and it works great. You have to be in list view though for the icon to appear. It's simple to set up. Note Greasemonkey is available on other browsers. Just search for Greasemonkey IE, Greasemonkey Google, Greasemonkey Safari and so on. Note this obviously works with other feeds as well.

For those that this will not work for, note the updates in your reader can serve as an FYI that new content is up. You don't have to click on every link. You can click on one to get to the site, click on the MATRIXSYNTH header on top of the site and parse all posts once. Then go off and wait until the next reminder comes up in your reader. I'll keep looking for better solutions as I have time, but again, if you have suggestions, or tips for other readers, send them in.
