"This is a video i made while messing with the Livewire AFG and the Malekko Envelator. Really enjoying them both. Also using a Doepfer A-160, A-188, Malekko Noisring, and the Harvestman Polivoks Filter. One of the Envelators is running through a MFOS Quantizer. The Europa provides trigger to the A-160 and is sending midi to the TR-606 w Exfade mods.

Time for a new camera, god mine sux!!!!

Enjoy..."

Vintage Linn Lindrum LM2 with Tuning Mod

via this auction
"You will notice that the end oak pieces are black. They are actually metallic black. They were refinished because of a flaw and it looks great. You may also notice that there are knobs on the top right that are not stock. I started a tuning modification and decided to to finish. I made one circuit and it worked great but it was only a test. The hardest part of the mod is removing some old chips and putting in sockets with new chips. I have done that. I will supply the documentation for the modification. There is a video on youtube of a finished mod. The instructions I have came from him." videos below
