"The Jupiter 6 is an incredible analog synth. All of the Jupiters have a sound that was unlike any other synthesizer and the Jup 6 is no exception. This sound is due in part to classic analog Roland technology in its filters, modulation capabilities and a thick cluster of 12 analog oscillators at 2 per voice. Easy and intuitive programming via front panel sliders, knobs and buttons for all your tweaking needs."

Large Hadron Collider Makes Music

via Gizmodo

"A jet is made up of lots of cells containing energy deposits. Each cell has an energy, a distance and an angular distance (dR) associated with it. So each cell can be heard as a separate note in this example. This is quite a long track (about 90 seconds). The sounds reduce in density very much towards the end, with isolated events separated by silences of several seconds."
That's one hell of a sequencer...

A New Beginning

YouTube via MsMotif6 — May 24, 2010 — "Original composition written totally on the Motif 6.
A New Beginning represents a new way of thinking and how the future might be. Its positive with more major chords than I typically use.
I play the guitar live using the pitch-bend wheel for a nature effect and vibrato/modulation.
No software, no looping.
Please enjoy,
