Richard Lainhart Memorial Tribute - Mar 4 on UStream

As most of you that come to the site know, Richard Lainhart passed away on December 30, 2011. He was often featured here on MATRIXSYNTH and was extremely respected in the synth community. His wife Caroline Meyers wrote in to let me know his memorial will be streamed on March 4th on Ustream here. I'll put another post up on March 4th, but do mark the date. "The event will include music, video, remembrances and a performance of one of Richard's last compositions -- a live improvisation by a dozen musicians while watching Richard's film 'History of the Future.'" Below is a photostream that will be up prior to the event. I opted to grab the screen shot above for the archives.

"continued explorations into the 291e as a triple feedback oscillator this time addressing its on board 8 stage sequencer advance-step-change manually while sending the three "oscillators" random pitch stuff from the 266e and pumping it all through the 296e. . ."

MacBeth micromac Prototype, Photon & micromac Pre-Production Unit

via Ken MacBeth on Facebook

"I'm just about to startk work/vid using this setup of the gear that I've made recently! From left to right- the micromac prototype that went to NAMM, the small Photon synth and the final pre-production micromac that is now final. I'll be using the ASR-10 below for sequencing and also an excellent TR808 drum section. The curious device is a wide ranging signal/function generator. This is used for modulation the filter on that final micromac!"

rolling eternity

"a rough and hypnotic groove, created with KORG ER1 and EM1, a monotonous sequence with ROTA SYNTH and SHERMAN FILTERBANK, a dirty sound constructed with ROLAND GAIA SYNTH, a piano and the idea of a piece of music, which could go on and on and on forever.
