John Mayer uses his MPC to block the paparazzi

YouTube via AkaiProVideo — April 26, 2010 — "We've seen all kinds of uses for the MPC from people like DiViNCi playing three at a time, and Lady Gaga triggering samples in epic fashion on her MPC1000 to Busta Rhymes on the cover of Remix magazine. Here's a new one: John Mayer shields himself from the cameras with his MPC.

Admin: New Exclusives Section

Under the MORE STUFF section on the right you will see a new section titled EXCLUSIVES. It will contain the five most recent exclusives here on MATRIXSYNTH. Trevor Pinch's DIY Modular post is the first to receive the label. Note, Ichabod is there as well as I decided to move it into this section. I opted to go with the Ichabod label as the link rather than this first post, so you don't miss anything. Finally, don't forget the Featured label in the header above. You should check that at least once a day to make sure you don't miss a thing.

5 years genoQs Machines - Octopus DIVA

via genoQs

"It has been five short years since the launch of the magnificent Octopus and the start of genoQs Machines. What a story - and what better time to set another mark in the ground with an extraordinary machine: Octopus "Diva" -> PB_Octopus_Diva.pdf [mirror]

Limited to only five machines to be built, Diva features a massive slate frame, gold plated button groups,
and a brushed aluminum front panel. Diva represents a true monument of hardware sequencing and is probably the only electronic instrument built with stone and gold!

Furthermore, in celebration of our story of the five past years, and for a very limited period of time, we will grant a discount of 500EUR on orders of Nemo or Octopus (not applicable to Diva) received on 5.05.2010 and for the five weeks to follow.

Happy sequencing!"
