Mungo State Zero French Horn

Published on Jan 7, 2016 Stringy-Bark Tree

"John from Mungo Enterprises demonstrates a brass patch on the State Zero polyphonic modular. By coincidence someone was rehearsing on a french horn in another room which served as an ideal reference."

Early DIY Synthesizer

This one is from the Museum of Making Music according to the flickr set this came from. If anyone has more info on it feel free to comment.

Update: some additional info in via Suit & Tie Guy who checked on a Hamtech list. Here's what he got back from a couple of people: "That is Don Lewis' LEO (Live Electronic Orchestra). AFAIK, it still is at the NAMM Museum. Lewis gigged with it regularly in the day. Great organ player. Never heard him play it, but he probably played the snot out of it. Don't know if he recorded with it. Very little of it is X-66. Those are Concord drawbars and other parts, plus lots of stuff from ARP and Roland and more. This is a fairly well known instrument, so I'm disappointed to see that no one could do research."

And:

"It is still there, he had a little gig a couple of years ago to celebrate its 30th and Hammond's 70th (if I remember the occasion correctly). And he most certainly recorded! You can buy it on iTunes or from Don's web site.

Don and my grandma were two peas in a pod, they put on seminars here in Denver for teachers over the years. I was honored to have gotten a nice note from Don after she passed. He's a wonderful guy. And a heckuva engineer!"
