David C Lovelace & His Better Half Wanders Into The Moog Sound Lab

via David Lovelace on Facebook:

"We actually wandered into this room off the street accidentally. The door was supposed to be locked (there's video surveillance, so don't try it, Asheville interlopers!), but my connection with this company charged the building itself to become self-aware and allow my entry into its secret, twinkling synthmeats."

Dave of course is the author of The Packrat (August 2012 strip below), and he created the MATRIXSYNTH Packrat on the right of this site way back in 2006. Thank you Dave! Be sure to check out his site http://www.umop.com/ for tons more including music, tron keytar, and his lovely mother-in-law.
He also did the unforgettable artwork for a number of Metasonix products.

Update via Dave in the comments:

"Aw, thanks! Lee-Ann and I had a great time there with Jason Daniello, Moog's AR Manager. She showed us around the factory (more pics of that coming today) and basically let me be a 12-year-old in a music store, making a lot of noise and wondering how much of this stuff I'll get to own when I grow up. While I was there I drew a Packrat comic for them on a big 18x30 pad, mounted on an easel, with Sharpies. They took a video of the process which should end up on their YouTube channel or maybe just their website, not sure... anyway here's the best shot I was able to get of that drawing... as is apparent I got pretty hammered on mai tais at Trader Vics in Atlanta the night before..."

Emu SP1200 SN 107632 with Original Box

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"For sale is a rare and vintage Emu Sp1200 original grey model 7030 sampling drum machine. This is the nicest Sp1200 you will EVER FIND. MINTY condition, I couldn't find a single blemish and screen is still bright enough and easy to ready in daylight. Comes with one original disc and even includes the original box (matching SN written on it) with original foam cutouts (box is in ok shape, has a lot of tape on the outside of it). The Sp1200 is a classic with awesome 12bit sound that was used on hundreds of your favorite albums back in the day. Really great sound that I'd take over any of the Akai MPC series, even the 60. It's fully functional condition, all features were tested and working without issue, no bad pads or buttons or bad outputs. I will throw in a couple extra discs containing original Emu sampler library sounds and OS 1.2 (not pictured). Also includes power cable (not pictured)."
