"This is a very, very rough experiment processing a Richard Waters' waterphone through some MoogerFoogers (Ring & Murf), a Jomox T-Resonator and a Boss looper."

Vinate Jean Michel Jarre - Equinoxe Part IV, live. (better image & sound)

YouTube via Nimanty | October 05, 2010
Note the custom sequencer on top of the Eminent 310
"Jean Michel Jarre performing Equinoxe Part IV, live in concert.
Images slightly enhanced (contrast, color ans sharpness) and sound remastered for improved clearity and stereo imaging.

Detail: it seems obvious that Jarre is not playing live but insstead playbacks the session. On 2:00 for example he seems to dial knobs randomly without result.
On 1:37 he clearly is not in sync with the actual phrase of the track (playing more notes). Enjoy this classic footage of Jarre. - Nimanty -"

And a couple of teasers from the man himself on an upcoming London performance that will be on UStream.

DX5 playing Depeche Mode "The Sun and the Rainfall"

YouTube via DX5 | October 05, 2010

"A track I like a lot.

Gear:
Upper: Roland JX8P (first noise sound is the infamous JX plane preset :)
Mid: KORG DW8000
Lower: Emu EMAX II HD

Also used: Simmons SDS 8 for drums.
Backtrack recorded in Pro Tools.
*Note: there is a short "jump" at second 7. It seems to be a problem when capturing the video into the computer or rendering to the final format.

Composed by Martin L Gore."
